-Chapter 1-It's good to be here(not for long)

"Mum I'm okay I'm going into the office right now." I say tiredliy. Ever since she found out I was applying to a all-boy boarding school she has been on my case.
"Mum, yes I know my neck gets cold but I needed to do this." I say looking at my new side bangs. My black bangs flowing towards my right. I got the haircut that made me look like a boy but if you knew I was a girl you could totally tell the difference.
"Mr.Peterson please step into my office." Headmaster Phillip called.
"Mum I got to go Headmaster is calling me. Love you, bye." I say ending the call on my new Android.
I enter Headmasters office and sit down on the plush seats. "Yes, Headmaster Phillip." I say calm and low.
"Oh no Mr.Peterson you do not have to call me Headmaster. With your test scores you can call me Phillip." He says respectfully.
"Yes Hea-Mr.Phillip." I say trying to pass some time.
"No, no none of the Mr. stuff you make me feel old." He says. Well he's not wrong. He is well toned, muscular and maybe in his mid-twenties.
"Yes, Phillip." I say trying to get to the point.
"Your test scores are great and your family is well maybe the richest family after the royal family." He says slowly trying to see my reaction.
"My family is not that rich. We don't take advantage of our money. We only use it for things that are nessecary, like transportation, education, and communication." I say trying to indicate that our family is not rich but suceeded.
"Well, welcome to Ashby Boarding School. We are glad to have you as one of our students." He says while stretching out his hand.
I shake his hand. "It's good to be here, Phillip." I say uneasily I was brought up to say titles before my elders and this just felt wrong.
"What's wrong Mr.Peterson are you okay?" He asks, sensing something is wrong.
"Nothing, Phillip it's just that I was brought up to say titles when talking to elders." I say as if my life depended on it.
"Then all right you can call me Headmaster Phillip if you like." He says with a bright smile, that reminds me of my favorite teachers from my old school.
"Yes Headmaster Phillip thank you." I say while mustering up my best smile, not trying to cry.
"Now, let me get you your time table, and dorm room key." He says going through the bottom to the right drawer. "Let's see Andrew, Peter, Alex, Josh. Ah, here it is Tony Peterson. You will be sharing your dorm with...let's see." He says while checking his Toshiba.
Please, dear lord, please let my roommate be Taylor. "Ah, yes your roommate is Drake Waters in room 242." He says while giving me my things. Well today just wasn't my lucky day.
"Thank you Headmaster Phillip. I best be going now to unpack my things." I say trying to get away for it to backfire on me.
"How many suitcases did you bring? I can have someone bring them up for you." He says trying to hold me back.
"No, no no need for that my mum and dad have some one ready to bring in my stuff. So you see no reason. If you want to make sure you can talk to my parents." I say trying to convince him not to.
"Then may I talk to your parents." He says as if he's going to find out something about me.
"Sure let me dial them right now." I say qickly tapping on my Android. Mum picks up on the second ring.
"Honey are you okay. Did you get accepted." She quickly asks.
"Mum I'm okay but can you tell Headmaster Phillip I really don't need help with my things." I say quickly before she can give away any information about my gender.
"Okay. Baby I'll talk to him or do you want your father to talk to him. MAN to MAN." She says emphasizing the Man part.

Before she can say anything else I say "Yes mum I want dad to talk to him cause you will be no help at all."

"That is no way to talk to your mum I will not put up with that. Here is your father." I sigh relieved and pass my phone to Headmaster.

-Chapter 2- I meet the boys

I'm heading toward my dorm room, with Eric tailing behind me. Eric is a muscular, white haired old man, but you wouldn't now that by looking at him. He looks like he's in his mid-thirty's but he can pass as my grandfather cause of his age.

We finally reach my dorm room. I feel Eric stiffen as if feeling danger coming from behind the door. "Eric you can leave my bags here you can go." 

"Sorry ma'am but no can do I have to set them inside for you to unpack." He says.

"Eric don't call me ma'am I'm a boy here remember." I say as quietly as possible. Which sounds as if I'm not saying anything but I know Eric can here me. It's like he has super human hearing.

"But your a tom-boy not completely a boy." He says knowigly. "You'll fit right in." He gives me one of his million dollar smiles that show off his dazzling, sparkly, full set of teeth.

"Thanks now let's go in." I say getting out my keys. I flip through my 14 car keys, 12 house keys, and finally reach my 2 dorm keys. I unlock the door to see a group of 5 boys watching a movie. When they hear the door open all of them turn around to look at me and Eric. 

One of the boys breaks the trance first and yell to who I can guess is Drake. "Drake who's the dude and old man."

Drake answers. "I have no idea." To the black hair, green eyes boy. Then turns to me and asks. "Who are you anyway? And the old man." Referring to Eric.

I answer in a low kinda boyish voice. "I'm Tony Peterson Drake's new roomate, and this is Eric my-" Eric inturrepts me.

"I'm Eric his butler." He says without a shred of regret. At home we never refer to him as a butler but an old friend.

"No he's not my butler he's a friend. An old friend." I say with no worry at all.

"Wait Peterson. As in the Peterson family the richest family in Egland after the royal family of course." A guy with dirty blonde hair and grey eyes says.

"Yes, but I wouldn't say richest family. We're like an average family." I say quickly adding "Does anyone know where I can put my stuff."

They all point toward the window. I walk towards there with Eric right beside me. When we reach the end I see 2 seperate rooms with both doors closed. One of them are closer to a window that looks out towards the front of the school. I see the huge lake and the round hedges. The other room didn't have a view at all and was locked so I decided with the room with the view of outside. Not caring that someone might see me change.

"Eric you can set the bags over by the dresser, kay." I say while still staring at the view.

"Yes Tony." I hear a snicker and turn around.

"Hey that's the first name that came to mind so don't say anything." I say angrigly.

"Yes, sir what ever you say." He says with a smirk.

"Well that's it. Go home you can use my room for...whatever." I say not really caring.

"Now that's the person I watched grow up. Hope you come home soon." He says sadly.

"Wait, hold up." I say turning around.

"Yes, sir what do you need?" He says as if he's in a hurry.

I run towards him and give him a straight out hug. He's a bit surprised but starts patting my back slowly. "I'm going to miss mum, and dad, but I'm going to miss you the most. Tell mum I'm okay and don't tell her anything like I have to share a dorm, or that I'm going to miss you more then them." I say sadly on the brick of crying.

"Wouldn't dream of it Black Rock. I have to go and you have to start unpacking, remember to lock your door once I leave okay." He says while hugging me back.

"Yes, sir." I say while saluting to him. We both start to laugh then we part.

After I unpack everything, I decided to take a shower. I take off my Green Day Logo Shirt. I start to unwrap the black bandage that hides my puny chest from being noticed. I take off my baggy black jeans and grab a towel that I had in my drawers. I quickly make my way to the bathroom so that the boys wouldn't see me. I knew they were still here because they continued to make noise.

Once I reach the bathroom I'm lucky no one is using it. I quickly step into the shower and turn it on. The hot water washing away all my misery and pain.

Once I 'm done I wash my hair before I dry myself. Once I wrap myself I step out and run into somebodys chest. "Uh, oh." I say looking up to see Drake looking at me in surprise.

"Who are you?" He asks. I'm surprised he can say anything.

"I'm Tony. Who do you think I am." I ask trying to see an escape route.

"No your not. Your a chick, Tony's a dude." He says shock coming over his face.
I look down and noticed what he's staring at. "Um, I have to go." I say quickly and enter my room. I lock my door and quickly put on my bandage. I take out my favorite shirt that said 'Running is a LIFESTYLE not a SPORT.' I put on some faded boy blue jeans. I get out to see all the boys surrounding my rooms door.

"Can I go Headmaster Phillip is waiting for me." I say creating a diversion.

"Nice try 'Tony' is that is your real name but your not going anywhere." Says a boy with red hair and ginger brown eyes.

I cringe when I hear a threat added to the end of the sentence. "Oh, okay. What do you want?" I say.
Drake comes up towards me. "Who was the girl?"

"There wasn't a girl here just me." I lie. Man if there was a contest for the World's Best Liar I'd totally win.

"Your a really good liar you know that." Says a boy with brown curly hair and green eyes.
"No, I can't lie my parents would not allow it." I say looking down remembering the last time I lied. I took a lie detector test and I got shocked every time. I didn't notice that my body shivered.

Drake put a hand on shoulder. I quickly moved it from his grasp. "I have to go." I say running past them and touching the boy with grey eyes. I hear him gasp and stop dead.
Letting my bangs hide my eyes I turn around. "Are you okay."

"Yes I'm alright. By the way I'm Andrew. You know Drake. This is Alex." He says pointing to the red haired boy. I kinda notice that he has a french accent. Drake picks up where he left off. "This is Josh." He says pointing to the black haired boy. "And lastly this is Peter." He says pointing to the brown haired boy.
"Nice to meet you all, now bye." I say running out the door. I'm so glad today's Saturday I can go
