This is just for a little bit of fun, just to keep the time ticking by

I do not own the rights to tracy beaker returns, I only own characters that are mine are the ones not in the series'.

Chapter 1

"Get out of the way!" a boy yelled, pushing me against the wall as he ran past. That's Liam O'Donovan for you when he's having a teacher chase after him. He's forever getting into trouble with the police and everyone else for that matter, it's like he has no respect what so ever. You would think that by having a surgeon for a dad and a care worker for a mum, they would have taught him some decent manners but maybe they just didn't have time for that.

I straightened out my clothes and flung my bag back on my shoulder and turned around to see the teacher scurrying along yelling "Liam" at the top of her voice. I want to keep my hearing for a few more years thank you Miss Parkinson. I walked along quite fast to maths. It's a mystery to me why I walk fast even though I hate maths, I'd rather be somewhere else. I can't say at home because I don't have a home, I'm passed around from pillar to post all the time. I'm in the care system you see and because I'm an older resident, they move me around for younger children.

"Okay guys the new seating plan is on the board for the last few days of the school year. If you could sit in them places that would be great. Before any of you ask, I am not changing these places". I think Miss Grimshaw knew I was going to say something because my jaw seemed to drop when I read where and who I was sat next to. Liam. Great. I slumped into my chair, throwing my bag on the floor and getting out my pen.

"Sorry I'm late miss, just had to have a girly chit chat with Mr. White and to say I'm sorry, I bought you this", Liam said, walking into the classroom 15 minutes late with a bunch of Daisy's from the school field in his hands. Some year 7's have obviously been making daisy chains at lunch. This made me get a little grin on my face, he is so cheesy. I put my head down and just got on with my work as Liam sat next to me, messing about getting his equipment out.

After five minutes, Liam turned to me and whispered, "Why don't you talk? Are you on a continuous or something? Gees everything is about being good you know".

"No, it's called having respect for the teacher and following the rules; it doesn't cost anything to have manners", I said.

"I bet you only do school work after school Lucy", Liam said without paying attention to what I said. I just ignored him and carried on with my work. I just want this day to be done and do be dragged off to the next care home of doom.

The bell rang at 3:15 and I rushed out of school as I could to find my care worker standing next to her car in the car park. I put my head down and carried on walking as if I hadn't seen her, hoping she hadn't noticed me. She hadn't noticed me until my friend, Katie shouted bye to me. Thanks Katie.

"Lucy! Over here!" Loraine my social worker shouted, waving frantically. She is so embarrassing. I slowly walked over to her, trying to make sure no one I knew saw me. "Hello Lucy". I ignored her and just got into the car as she opened the door. I noticed all of my bags in the back of the car. Loraine got into the car and before I knew it, we were driving off along the streets to my new care home…

Sorry it's a little short, I was making this up as I went along but there is another chapter so go check it out please. If you want to.
