I have spell checked it but I may have missed some so I'm sorry just in case. Please Review.
First day at a new school, for some reason this school started on Thursday or at least it did for my year, Year 11, because it was the first term of the year after the summer holidays. It was rather pointless having only two days of school. I couldn't find my first lesson; I've been searching for my lesson for 10 minutes now. My palms started sweating as I walked down corridor after corridor. Were is it? There was no one on the corridor anymore so I began to run. Panic flooded through my vain. Then when I turned a corner I ran into something hard and landed on my bum on the floor. OWWW.
"Watch it girl." God he was fit but rude.
"Why don't you watch it boy." I spat back.
"Your the one who ran into me." He said confused.
"You were standing in the way." I said back. "Do you know where English room 11 is?"
"Yes."
"Will you show me?"
"No." I bit my tong.
"Fine." I walked of but after a couple of steps two hands grabbed my shoulders.
"This way girl." The absolute cheek of him.
"I thought you weren't going to show me."
"You look dumb so I thought I'd best other wise you wouldn't make it to the lesson at all." he was still dragging me.
"I could but I think you're that dumb that you wouldn't know to follow me."
"That makes no sense now let go." I pulled away from him and pulled a stern face, which made him laugh. Idiot.
"Right where here." I walked in and the teacher was sat at his desk. The boy also came in and sat at his desk while saying,
"I found her wondering the halls sir." Turd.
The teacher looked up at me and smiled. I walked over to the desk and smiled back at the teacher.
"Hi there. You must be Terri."
"Domino." I corrected him.
"Alright Domino. You can sit next to George McAshton or Gregory Sackville-Bagg." I looked over at them.
On one hand I could sit next to the boy who hated me for no reason or on the other there was a posh boy trying to give me 'the look', fail, and now he just winked at me. Ok lets not. Gregory it is then. I would rather have daggers sticking me in the back all lesson than have pretty boy try to chat me up.
I walked over to him and sat next to him. He gave me this look as if to say, what are you sitting here for. I just smiled and he frowned. I looked around and everyone and I mean everyone was looking at us. I mimed the word 'what' to them all and they pulled faces and went back to doing their work. Then the teacher stood up and cleared his throat.
"Right now where going to work as table pairs to put this 3D shape together." He held up some different shaped blocks.
"I thought this was English not Maths." I said.
"Yes it is but this is to develop team work for when you leave school."
"Isn't that what P.E is for." he gave me a look.
"Be quiet Terri."
"My names Domino. Sir"
"What ever." He started handing the shapes out. Well he's nice.
When we got our shapes Gregory tried putting them together by him self. He did Ok, until the last peace, which wouldn't go in.
"Your doing it wrong." I said smugly.
"No I'm not." He was getting stressed with it.
"Yes you are."
He put the shape in front of me "You do it then."
I gave him a smug look then took the peaces and tried to fit them together. No look. It wouldn't fit. I saw him smile which got me angry so I started to force it in by hitting and pushing it.
"Go...in...you...peace...of...shi...."
"You're going to brake it you idiot." All the other groups were starting to finish.
"I'm not an idiot you're the idiot. You put it together wrong!" I shouted which made the rest of the class stop and listen to what we were saying.
"Oh yeh!" he shouted.
"Yeh!" We were glaring at each other.
"Urmm. Domino maybe you should sit next to Gorge." The teacher said.
I looked over at Gorge who was looking at me with the same attempt at a sexy look. He was smiling and again he winked at me. That is disgusting, I could of been sick.
"I'm alright here thanks sir." The teacher nodded.
Gregory was frowning at me. "What?" I asked
"Nothing." He answered.
"Well piss of then." He pulled a face so I pulled a face.
"That's an improvement for you." He said.
"Do you want a slap?"
"I'll pass. I might catch something." He smiled
I nipped the top of his thigh under the table which made him jump in pain. I smiled at him and he glared at me. I faced the front and he chucked a peace of the puzzle at me so I chucked one back and that started a throwing match. Anything we could get our hands on we threw.
"You two out!" the teacher shouted. I stood to leave.
"But sir she st..." Gregory started.
"Out...Now!"
We lent against the wall outside the door glaring at each other. The teacher came out and stood in front of us.
"What was that about?" he asked
"She started it." Gregory blamed me.
"Did not."
"Did too."
"Did not!"
"Did t..."
"I don't care who started it I'm finishing it." The teacher said.
"That's what all teachers say and they don't succeed."
"Gregory tell me, have you found someone to do that English essay with."
"No. Why?"
"Well then you work with her. Your bright so you can catch her up with it all."
"What no." we said together.
"I'd end up killing him."
"Or I you."
"No. it would defiantly be me killing you."
"Oh yeh." he let out a slight laugh.
"yeh."
"Stop it you two and oh yeh you have detention at brake so come back here." the teacher went back into the classroom.
"It's your fault." I whispered. Gregory just gave me the evils.
"We should start work on it as soon as we can. Tonight good for you?" I asked
"Yeh. Why?" He said
"The sooner we get it dun the better. Now my place or yours." His mouth turned up into a smile. " Dirty minded get. we'll go to my house. I know Billie will be in."
"You said it." He was still smiling.
"We'll meet outside the entrance."
"Ok but first I have to drop my brother and sister off first."
"How old are they?"
"My sister is 9 and my brother is 10."
"Do they go to this school?"
"Yes." He saw the confusion in my face "You really are thick, this school is a junior and high school."
"Oh." The bell went for second lesson.
I had ICT and I managed to find this lesson because I had passed it twice trying to find English. When I went in the teacher told me to sit wherever I wanted so I did. A few minutes later the boy gorge sat next to me. Shit. He sat looking at me while I logged on to the computer then he smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Gorge." Man he was more posh than the queen.
I put on a fake smile, turned to him and replied, "I'm Domino." Please go away.
"You know you should have sat next to me in English. That Gregory is a freak. What were you guys arguing about anyway?"
"Nothing major."
"You know your the first person I've seen him talk to then again no one goes near him."
"Why not?"
"Because no one likes him."
"Why?"
"Because he's a freak."
"What makes him a freak?"
"Everything about him." What was he going on about. "Anyway, why didn't you sit next to me when the teacher said you could move? Gregory was winding you up."
"Because when I saw you I thought you the freak and now that I talk to you I realise I was right so if you don't mine, leave me alone you posh twat." I smiled and went back to the computer. He looked gob smacked.
The teacher said that the class could do whatever we wanted for this lesson but next lesson we have lots of work to do. Games and music for me then. then when the bell went I remembered I had detention. I was actually happy about that. I was the loner who would be walking around by her self if I didn't have detention. God knows what I'm goanna do for dinner. I wondered down to the English room and I was met by one sour faced Gregory outside the door I pushed in front of him so I could go in first but he pulled me out of the way and went in.
"Hay wha..." I followed after him and we sat down at the desk. the teacher was already there sat down at his desk.
"Right Gregory I want you to get her up to speed with what were doing for the essay." He started reading and marking work.
For the whole of brake Gregory and me played the blame game for why we were in here instead of talking about the project. The only time we were civil to each other was at the end of brake.
"Have you got P.E next?" He asked
"Yep. Why?"
"Do you want showing where it is?"
"No."
"Do you know where it is?"
"No but I'm skiving."
"why?"
"Because."
"Because why?"
"God you're a nosy twat. It's non of your business."
"Your the twat."
I sunk to a whole new level with my come back, "I know you are, you said you are but what am I?" I haven't used that since I was like eight or nine maybe even younger but it worked, he just gave me the evils.
"Where will you go?" He asked.
"I don't know, I'll just find somewhere."
"Can I come?"
I looked at him shocked. "What?"
"Can I come?"
"If you want." At that minute the bell went.
We got up and walked around the school for a while then we found somewhere on the school field to sit down.
"So... what do we have to do for the English thing?"
"We have to do something on Romeo and Juliet."
"What?"
"Read it, write about it, write a new script for it and then put down why we made the changes and why we thought the out come would be different with the changes we made."
"Pointless."
"Yep."
I took out my Ipod and put my earphones in and laded back the grass. Gregory then laded down and took my left ear phone and put it in his own ear.
"Excuse me, did I say you could listen to my music."
"No but I am."
"Turd."
"What is it you said, I know you are, you said you are but what am I."
"Shut up...Greg."
"Terri"
"It's Domino Greg"
"It's Gregory Terri."
"Shut up."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes"
"N..."
"I thought you were listening to the music." I interrupted
"I thought you said I wasn't allowed."
"I thought you said you were even though I told you, you couldn't."
We smiled and carried on listening to the music with closed eyes.
After awhile we heard the dinner bell go.
"What do you do at dinner then?" I asked him
"I sit and read." He answered
"You read?"
"You don't have to sound shocked." he said pulling a face.
"Well I am. I mean you read. I didn't know you had brain cells."
"And you do?"
"Yes. Do you eat at dinner?"
"No. School dinners suck."
"We may as well stay here then."
"Why would I want to stay here with you?"
"Well you have no one else do you and I don't. It's not like we have to be friends."
"Were just using each other for company. We don't have to be civil?" He smiled while saying this.
"Nope."
"I'm in. Just don't interrupt me while I'm reading."
We stayed there all dinner as well. he was listening to my music while I read the book he had over his shoulder. He found it annoying at first but then he seemed not to mind after another argument.
When the bell went we went to our next lesson. I had History, Gregory showed me where it was and he told me where my fifth lesson was. For history we spent the lesson looking at 'medicine through time'. Interesting. Then for fifth we had maths. We were doing Algebra and I got into a discussion with sir about why is it important. He told me it wasn't important so then I got into a discussion about why there teaching use something we don't need when they could be teaching us something we do need. I don't think the Maths teacher likes me much. Oh well. When the bell went for end of school the teacher kept me behind for 5 minutes about been rude towards him when I was just merely pointing something out.
When I finally reached the entrance Gregory had a sour look on his face.
"Your late." He very helpfully pointed out. Not.
"So."
"Oooooo. Your in a bad mood."
"Why wouldn't I be, I mean, I have just seen your face. It's enough to scare full grown adults." We had another glaring match.
A little cough made me look over to a little girl. Gregory's sister I'm guessing.
"I'm Anna."
"Hi."
"I'm Rudolph. Not after the reindeer so don't say it."
"I wasn't going to say anything. I like that name. It's unusual and I like unusual." He smiled at this. I'm guessing people have been giving he grief.
"Yeh I mean come on she's called Terri." Gregory said.
"Domino." I corrected him.
"Whatever Terri. "He smiled
"Shut up Greg." The smile faded.
"I'm Toney." A young boy stepped in.
"Hi" I said
"Come on then." Gregory set off walking.
As we were walking I tripped over a stone or my own feet or something and I had to grab hold of Gregory to stop myself from flying flat on my face.
"Clumsy get." He whispered
"Shut up you prick."
"Not in front of the children...bitch." I gritted my teeth and tripped him up. "Ouch, what do you think your doing?"
"Oops, clumsy me." I said sarcastically.
"I'll kill you."
"Feel free"
Anna let out another cough and all the three kids were looking at us as if we were mad.
"Your English teacher actually said you had to work together?"
"It's like having another Gregory only female." Rudolph said.
"Please Rudolph don't compare me to that." I said
"Yeh don't compare me to...it." Gregory pointed at me.
"Well it's your fault we have to work together anyway." I pushed hi while saying this.
"My fault, no I think you'll find it was you're..."
"Please stop fighting!" Anna shouted over us "In-fact don't even speak to each other until were gone. Ok."
We dropped them off then went to my house. We walked there in silence. When we reached my house I led him into the room where my mum was.
"Sorry Billie short notice. The teacher said we have to work together on something, I'll just go get my laptop."
"It's ok and call me mum. Aren't you working on it upstairs."
"No."
"It might be a bit quieter for you." She pulled one of them faces that says, there going to do a lot more then homework.
"Well it's quiet down here."
"I think your mothers right Terri, I mean we don't what to be interrupted do we." He licked his top lip.
"Get that thought out of your head now."
"Oh go on sweetie. It will be easier to concentrate."
"Dad wouldn't approve."
"Your dads not here sweetie."
"Yeh and now I've been landed with you. I change my mind lets go."
We walked through the hall and up the stairs. When we reached my room Gregory asked,
"Did your dad leave."
"No she did. When I was two."
"I don't understand."
"It none of your business. So who's doing what?" I dumped my back and turned on the laptop.
"First you need to read Romeo and Juliet." He told me
"I already have." I answered him.
"What did you think?"
"In all honesty, crap. Who in their right mind would give up their life for someone they've known for like a week or what ever? It's mental."
"Don't you think you'd ever love someone that much?" he asked
"Nope anyway what now?"
"We write about it. What we thought about it, how we felt when reading it and why it made us feel like that."
"Are you allowed to put it made me feel bored because it's crap?"
"No."
"Where going to struggle." He smiled "Unless you enjoyed it?" I hoped he did but he shuck his head. "Then where in deep shit." His smile widened.
"We are allowed to say we didn't like it but we have to put in bit's we liked about it too." he said.
"Well I liked the bit where they both died because I knew it was the end of the play. You?"
"Me too. Come on will make it up."
We both sat down by the computer and talked about what to put then wrote it. When we finally finished that it was six o'clock and we couldn't be bothered doing anything else so we wondered down stairs and then Billie cornered him in the room so I went and got a pot noodle to eat. I was stood around the corner sending daggers his way. Have you ever met someone who you didn't like but your mum loves them? Yeh this was one of these times. It was 7 o'clock by the time he decided to leave. When we were stood at the door he asked,
"Who house are we at tomorrow?"
"Yours."
"Really?"
"Yeh, Billie dose by heading."
"Why don't you call her mum?"
"None of your business. Buy." I shoot the door in his face.
I went up to bed and got dressed in my bedclothes. I read books and listened to music until I was tired and went to sleep.
