Rodney Poole was excited about school. This was very unusual for Rodney because all of his teachers thought he hated it. They would have been right if they had said that in his freshman year, and certainly they would have been right if they said that during his sophomore year. And they especially would have been correct if they had said that his junior year when it was nothing but test, test, test, test and test again! He had grown a reputation through those three years and this was what teachers always would say about him, "Bright kid! Troublemaker though... Needs to find something he enjoys other then causing trouble and annoying teachers. Very brilliant, could easily go to any college he chooses. Just unmotivated."
They were all correct. Rodney absolutely hated his first three years of school, but he never failed a class. Though he often pulled D's or C's out of his ass at the end of the year when it looked like he would be failing by acing a final or two major tests. He scored off the charts on the SATs and ACTs in his junior year and seemed to have calmed down towards the end of it, for one reason or another. No teacher could really put their finger on why he had mellowed out, it was just that he had. Or so they thought, again, they had quite underestimated Rodney Poole.
At some point during the second half of his junior year in high school he had heard about the foreign exchange program. More importantly he saw a picture of the exchange student that would be attending the following year. His senior year. Immediately he went on his best behavior as he tried to get himself selected as the students "buddy" or "tutor." His efforts exceeded a hundred times better then he thought. The principal of the prestigious Woodville academy even gave Rodney a very light schedule his senior year so that he could spend most of his time dealing with the exchange student when she arrived. He really only had English and Calculus to deal with, all of his other classes were gym or study periods. This worked for Rodney, as he planned on spending plenty of 'time' with the new student. In fact the principal had gone even further, talking to several colleges and having them agree to let Rodney become a Teacher's Assistant in some of the foreign exchange students classes. He would be earning college credits by helping her through her first year in high school.
Rodney couldn't wait. He was nervously shifting from foot to foot. His dark red hair was neatly gelled into spikes. Around his forehead was a black bandanna that he wore just about everywhere even though it was against school uniform. The principal had agreed to this only after he saw the tattoo Rodney had across his forehead in artsy blood lettering. The word was, of course, "Badass!" He was a fairly average height, standing at five-ten, but he had broad, thick shoulders that were perfect for swimming which was the only sport he did. His eyes were an extremely unique yellow that made him look like an animal early in the morning if he was pissed off. Right now he was wearing the impressive school honor uniform. A tan shirt with blood red lettering across the chest and back. Black paints with the same red stripes down the leggings, shining black boots. He was eagerly searching the crowded bus as it pulled into the station, looking for the sweet little piece of ass that was going to be his, all his own, for the next year!
