Author's Note: Sarah is in 7th grade in this story. ANd I rated it T for violence and some language usage
"Oh Howie, you are so great at everything you do. And I do believe I'm falling for you." The voice came from a very unusual Sarah. She was wearing a long black gown and was standing next to a boy twice her height, and he was wearing a black tuxedo. He had short brown hair and light gray eyes.
"Bzzt, bzzt." The sounds omitted from the boy's mouth as he opened it.
Sarah quickly sat up in her bed, "Phew. It was just a dream." She said, shaking her head a bit as she smacked her alarm clock, something she thought resulted in the quickest way of turning off her alarm clock. She stood up, walking over to her closet and changing into a black tank top that read, "Mess it Up" in blue writing, and a pair of khaki capris. She exited her room and walked down towards the dining room of her huge house. Her hair was up in 2 pigtails.
Jake jumped out from his bedroom and jumped on his older sister's back, "Morning Sarah." He said, smirking.
Sarah punched her little brother in the arm. "Get off me you big oaf!" She said, attempting to throw Jake off her back. "Gosh! You weigh a lot for being a year younger than me." She said, smirking a little.
Jake looked completely offended, "I beg your pardon."
"You heard me Jake." Sarah said, smirking as she ran down the stairs, Jake right on her tail. "The way you reacted to that, I'd think you were Lorraine for a minute, all offended by someone calling you fat."
Jake stopped instantly, almost causing himself to trip over the random extension cord. "I am NOT like Lorraine." He said, staring at his sister.
"Alright Jakey." Sarah said as she walked into the dining room, sitting down next to Mike, with one open seat next to her. As expected, Jake sat in this seat, kicking Sarah from under the table.
Sarah quickly ate her breakfast and walked out the front door of the house, her black bag on her back, her lacrosse stick hanging out of it. Jake and Henry, both of whom went to her school, quickly followed her. They got into Nora's car, as she was going to take the three of them to the middle school. Since she did work there as a Nurse's assistant.
Sarah simply groaned, as she was crammed in the back between her two brothers, none of which were exactly thin by any means. Especially Henry. Normally she would've sat up front. But Nora's new boyfriend Seth, who was actually dumber than Hank, had stayed the night and she was bringing him to his work. He also worked at the school. As an 8th grade English teacher.
Nora parked in the teacher's parking area, and got out of the car, as did Seth. Sarah, Jake, and Henry got out as well, Sarah practically leaping over Jake to get out. She then casually walked up to the school, meeting up with her 2 best friends, Cassie and Bridget. "Hey you guys."
"Hey Sarah!" Cassie said, smiling. "Guess who I heard was looking for you"
"If you say Howie. I'm going to kill you." Sarah said, yes, she had a dream about him, but she hated him, and he had a huge crush on her.
"Fine. We won't say it then." Bridget said, smiling as well. "We wouldn't want to die now."
Sarah shook her head and ran into the school, going to her locker and putting her stuff away. "You guys. If you see him, please tell me. I really don't want to deal with him this-"
"Hey Sarah." A male voice had appeared by them.
"Hey Eric." Sarah said, turning around and smiling. "What's up?" Everyone thought she liked Eric, but it was impossible, for they had known each other since she moved there and he was one of the first people to be nice to her.
"Nothing. Just, you know. The usual." Eric said, running a hand through his shaggy blonde hair, which was falling into his green eyes.
"Ah, nothing special here either." Sarah said, shutting and locking her locker.
"Sarah. H-Alert." Cassie said, turning Sarah around and pointing to the big masculine figure approaching.
"Sorry Eric, I got to go." Sarah said, giving him a friendly hug and bolting to homeroom, quickly followed by Cassie and Bridget. She leaned on her desk in the back of the room, almost out of breath. "Wow, I have never run that fast in my life. And I've played lacrosse for 7 years." She said, collapsing into her desk.
Bridget sat in the desk next to her, "I know what you mean, and I'm on the track team!" She said she was shaking a little. Bridget was a diabetic, and only her closest friends knew about it. They had all promised to keep it a secret, and it had stayed that way for as long as they had been friends.
Cassie looked at the two of them, "You guys are lucky to be back here together. I'm all the way up there. With…" She cringed, "Damien and Ricky."
"Cassie, we'd have you back here if we picked our own seats." Sarah said, a puppy-dog look on her face.
"It's okay you guys." Cassie said she looked up at the clock, "Ugh. I have to go to my own seat now next to Thing 1 and Thing 2."
"Bye Cass!" Both girls said as she walked away.
"So, Sarah. Any family stuff going on lately?" Bridget asked she had 3 brothers. One was 10, one was her twin brother, and one was 17. A senior in the high school, and Charlie's main tormentor.
"No. Just trying not to kill any of the sibs." Sarah said, laughing a little. "Gosh. They are all so annoying. And most of them are younger than me. So it's so annoying!"
"I'm sorry. Well, Travis keeps bugging me about how he's going to find someway of embarrassing me in one of my classes that we share. Myles keeps talking about all the times he's annoyed Charlie to the brink of rage. And Sammy, well, you never know with him." Bridget said, all in one breath.
"Sometimes I wish I could describe my whole family in one breath." Sarah said, half-teasing and half-serious. "But I could probably tell you in a few breaths."
"Go for it. I'm bored and need to listen to something besides the announcements."
"Well Nora has a new boyfriend, Seth, and he's living with us. And it sucks. Because he acts all high-and-mighty around us because he's a teacher here. Charlie has been immensely moody and it's mostly your brother's fault. Lorraine is just… Lorraine. A.k.a. the girly prep who I hate and will always hate. Henry is eating us out of house and home. Surprise, surprise. Me, well, you know me. And how I'm doing. Jake is getting more annoying by the day, and almost broke down my door last night. Mark keeps hiding in his room with his new hamster, Zeke. Kim and Jessica keep busting into my room and doing my homework. Which actually isn't a bad thing, but gets annoying when certain teachers ask me to explain my work and I go off explaining something completely different. Mike keeps beating the crap out of my bed with hockey sticks. And Kyle and Nigel are just being 4 year olds, you know. Playing around and crap." Sarah said, "Wow. That's a lot to say."
By the time she had finished the announcements were over and it was time to go to their first class. Which for Sarah was Math. This was one of her only classes where she wasn't with either Cassie or Bridget, so she just left them and began walking towards room 208. Her classroom for Math with Mr. Anderson. She walked in and looked around, 'Good, they aren't here yet.' She thought to herself, referring to her worst enemies, Janelle, Rachel, and Maggie. "Ugh. I spoke too soon." She muttered to herself, because after she thought that, the three had entered.
Janelle was the Queen Bee of them all; she had long blonde hair and light blue eyes. Bridget had a theory that if you shaved Janelle's head she could be called 'Jack' and would pass as a male. Or as Cassie always said, "Are chicks supposed to have dicks?" But the three's opinions didn't affect many. The majority of the 7th grade males loved Janelle. Today she wore a khaki mini-skirt and a baby pink tank top, covered by a hot pink polo-like shirt.
Maggie was like Janelle's mini-me. She followed Janelle everywhere and copied everything she did. Her hair was dirty blonde, high-lighted with platinum blonde. Her eyes were blue as well. She had just moved there a few months after Sarah, and was inducted into the 'hive' immediately. Today she wore a pair of faded blue jeans and a baby blue t-shirt, that had a picture of a black cat in a halo, it read 'I'm an angel aren't I?' Sarah simply gagged at the sight of her. As she always did.
The third one was Rachel. Rachel wasn't as bad as the other two, and could actually be classified as human when away from the other two. She had brown hair to her shoulders and light green eyes. Today she wore a black skirt that went a little past her knees and a white tank top that read "What Boyfriend?" in green writing. In the 2nd grade Bridget and Rachel had been best friends, but then Janelle moved to Evanston in 3rd grade, and the two were separated. But, luckily for Bridget, a few months after that Cassie moved to Evanston. And both Bridget and Cassie clicked instantly.
The desks were set up in groups of four. At Sarah's group it was her, Rachel, and 2 boys. The 2 boys were Dominick Andrews and Kyle Davis.
Dominick had brown hair that was in the ever-popular shag-style and he had big blue eyes. He wore khaki pants, a white t-shirt and a navy blue polo shirt with pink stripes. He had a huge crush on Sarah, and she hated to say it, but she returned the crush. Both of them knew the other liked them, but neither would admit it for the life of them.
Kyle had shaggy black hair, died of course, and he wore a pair of dark blue jeans, with a black hoodie, no design or anything, just plain black. Kyle wasn't gothic, but plenty of people labeled him that way because of his love of the color black.
The bell rang, meaning everyone should go to their seats. Dominick and Sarah were already seated, but both completely silent, not wanting to say anything bad or embarrassing. Janelle and Rachel were still talking and Janelle, sort of loudly, said "Oh my gosh Rachel. I am so sorry that you have to sit with that thing." Referring to Sarah of course. Sarah was biting the inside of her lip and Dominick could tell something was up.
"Don't let that chick with a dick get to you." He said, smirking. "She's an attention seeking prat and won't give up until she wins. Stay calm and she'll give up."
Sarah simply smiled, "Did you just call her a chick with a dick?" She asked him, half-laughing. She wanted to say something else but didn't. Because Rachel and Kyle had just come over and were sitting down.
Mr. Anderson stepped up to the front of the room. He was a fairly young man, about 28, maybe 29. He had short black spiked hair and big brown eyes. He wore black dress pants and a white dress shirt. He also wore a red, white, and blue tie. He began to ramble on about ratios and proportions.
"For someone so young he sure can be awfully boring…" Kyle said, setting his head on his desk, pretending to fall asleep.
Rachel rolled her eyes, while both Dominick and Sarah were holding back laughter, not wanting to get Kyle in trouble.
Mr. Anderson stopped rambling when there were about 15 minutes left of class. "Now as most of you know you have your unit test next week, so I am assigning no homework. Except, to study, study, and study. Now, have a nice…" He looked up at the clock, "8 minutes of chat time."
Rachel bolted up and walked over to Janelle and Maggie, Kyle walked over to his friends, Ryan, Brett, and Joel. Dominick and Sarah both stayed where they were.
"Sarah, you want to go to the Zone this weekend?" Dominick asked her. The Zone was this place where all the kids from their school hung out on weekends, especially her little brother Jake.
"Um… Sure Dom." She said, a bit shocked, and a lot surprised, that he had just asked her. The Zone was also a known spot for first dates, and usually, couples that went to the Zone lasted a long while. Hopefully, Sarah and Dominick would be one of those couples.
"Alright. I'll see you then." Dominick said, a huge smile appearing on his face as the dismissal bell rang. Both of them walked out of class, bringing up the rear.
Sarah couldn't stop smiling as she walked to her Social Studies class. She ran into Cassie, and the two of them walked to the class. "Cassie. Dominick Andrews and I are going to the Zone this weekend." She said, a huge smile on her face.
Cassie's eyes grew wide, "Repeat that please?" She acted as if she were cleaning out her ears. "I don't think I heard you correctly."
"Dominick Andrews. My crush since I moved here. He asked ME to go to the Zone with him this weekend!" Sarah said, the huge smile not showing any sign of disappearing anytime soon.
"Oh my gosh. Sarah, that is amazing!" Cassie said, hugging her best friend. "Doesn't it suck that we have Social Studies to bring down the mood?" She asked, pointing to classroom 247. The Lair of Ms. Green. The meanest teacher in the entire 7th grade.
"Nothing. Not even Ms. Green-Teeth can bring down my mood right now." Sarah said, smiling as she walked in and went to her desk at the back of the room. There were 6 rows of desks. Each row had 5 desks; Sarah sat in the 3rd desk in the 6th row. On her right side was Janelle. And on her left side was Maggie. Right in front of her, Howie. But, the good thing about her seat was that next to Howie were Eric and Eric. No, Eric, her best friend, didn't have a clone, but Eric Vance, Dominick's best friend. She poked her Eric, Eric Bryant, in the back. "I got a date with Dom." She said.
Eric turned around and looked shocked, more shocked than Cassie had. "Where?"
"Zone"
"When?"
"This weekend."
"I heard he was going with Rachel." Eric said, a bit confused.
"Guess not. We just talked in math class and he asked me." Sarah said, smiling still.
Janelle looked disgusted, "Dominick Michael Andrews wouldn't take you to the Zone if his life depended on it." She said to Sarah, "Because you look like a dude, and you act like one too."
"Oh, but look whose talking." Sarah said, the claws were coming out. "Dom never asked you to the Zone did he? Nope, that's why you're dating… Who is it.. Oh yeah. Michael Davis? Older brother of Kyle Davis. Yes. He is so stupid he failed."
"No! He's Kyle's twin!" Janelle said, not wanting to date someone dumber than her.
"Sorry to break it to you, but they aren't twins. Kyle told me in math couple weeks ago. He was laughing at the fact that you were dumb enough to go out with him."
Both Eric's and Howie were laughing. Eric Vance turned around, "Sarah, of course Michael would go out with her, I mean. They are the same age." He said, smirking.
Eric B gave Eric V a high-five across Howie's desk.
Maggie jumped to her leader's defense, "Are you calling Janelle stupid? She's smarter than you could ever be!"
Eric V looked at Maggie like she had lost her mind, "My GPA 4.000." He said, it was true. He had straight A's. "Janelle's GPA 0.001."
Sarah smirked, "Yeah EV, I'd call that about right." She said, smiling. EV, pronounced Eee Vee. Like his initials. Not "Ev" like in Evan.
Janelle looked at Sarah, "Oh shut up Farm Girl."
Sarah glared at Janelle, "Never lived on a farm, sorry. But you know, back in Middleton, people made of plastic hit it big." She said, then turning her attention to the front of the room, where their teacher, Ms. Green, had come to the front of the room.
Ms. Green had short red hair and dark blue eyes. She wore a frumpy white skirt and a matching top. She was the meanest teacher ever, and everyone hated her. "Ms. Baker, Ms. Warrington, Mr. Vance, Mr. Bryant, and Ms. Chrysler are you about done back there?" She asked Sarah, Janelle, Eric, Eric, and Maggie.
"No we're only just beginning." Sarah muttered under her breath.
"We're finished Ms. Green." Janelle stated, feigning innocence.
"Suck-up!" Eric B coughed.
Both Eric V, and Sarah tried not to laugh.
"Bryant, Baker, and Vance. Detention, today after school. You can stay after class and inform your parents." Ms. Green snapped at them.
Sarah cringed in her seat, "My dad is going to kill me…" She muttered to herself. She had just gotten off of a month's detentions with her English teacher for being a smart Alec, and now she was back in detention, only luckily, this one wasn't for a month.
Ms. Green began rambling about World War 1 and how it effected America. She finished and everyone left. Except for Eric, Eric, and Sarah.
Cassie walked by Sarah and whispered to her, "I'll wait for you."
Ms. Green glared at the three of them, "You three have been causing issues in this class since the beginning of the year. Since I have no extra seats in this class I cannot move your seats. And I have had complaints from both Maggie Chrysler and Janelle Warrington about you three distracting them from their work."
Eric B held back a laugh, "Not like they do it anyway…" He said.
Sarah nodded in agreement, "And what they do they copy off of me." She said, trying to get her point across.
Eric V hadn't said anything, he was off in his own world, thinking of how his parents were going to take him getting punished.
Ms. Green looked at the three of them, "Ms. Baker. Since you seem so eager to speak today, you can use the phone first." She said, stepping away from her desk to give Sarah access to the phone.
Sarah stepped over and dialed her home number, 492-3942, it was ringing.
"Hello?" It was the exasperated voice of Kate Baker.
"Hi Mom, I got detention, I'll be home late, bye." Sarah said, hanging up the phone. "Heh, I got the answering machine." She said to Ms. Green, stepping aside for one of the Eric's to use the phone.
"Mr. Bryant."
Eric picked up the phone and dialed his mom's work number, 972-3628. He got her voicemail, "Hey Mom. It's Eric. I got detention… Again. I'll see you when I get home." He hung up.
"Mr. Vance."
Eric V walked over to the phone with the most hesitation. He picked it up and dialed his home phone, knowing that no one would be home until after he was, 548-8934. He got the answering machine, "Hey Parents. It's Eric. I got detention. Be home late. Bye." He hung up instantly.
"Well, maybe next time you three will be a little more behaved in my class." Ms. Green said, "Go on to your next class." She said, shooing them from her room.
Sarah, Eric, and Eric walked out, meeting up with Cassie, "I hate her." Eric V said, "I truly do."
"Did you smell her breath! I thought I was going to die!" Sarah said.
Both Eric's and Cassie began laughing, they then split up and went to their separate classes. Sarah walked to French. She walked in and sped to her seat next to Howie. The desks were in groups of three and her seat was with Howie and a new girl named Nikki.
Nikki, or Nicole Lansing, had short black hair with hot pink tips. She also had pale green eyes. Today she wore a pair of black baggy pants and a black t-shirt that showed a girl holding a cat by the tail, "Hug Me Or Perish" was written on the shirt in silver. Lots of people were scared of her.
"Hey Sarah. How was Green-Teeth?" Howie asked Sarah, joking around with her.
"Stuff it Howie. I didn't see you jumping to my defense."
"After last week of me getting grounded for 3 months for getting detention in /this/ class, I'm not getting detention in any other classes for a long while." He said, shaking his head.
Sarah playfully punched him in the arm while their teacher was helping a boy on the opposite side of the room.
Howie gripped his arm in pain, "Oww Sarah! That hurt!"
"You sound like my brother."
"Which one?" He asked, sticking his tongue out at her.
"Shut up!"
The two of them quickly acted like they were working while their teacher showed up at the table, to see if they were working. And she saw that they were, so she walked on, looked at the clock, and saw the time, "Well, class was great. Au revoir. For those of you who don't pay attention, you can go now."
Sarah bolted up and ran out the door. She walked to the Spanish room where she met up with Bridget, Cassie, and Eric V. "Where's EB? And Dom?" She asked them, they needed their entire table to go to lunch, and they never went down without one of them.
"Dom is in Italian." Eric V said. "And EB is with him." He said, as he walked towards room 404, the Italian room.
As soon as they got there both Eric B and Dominick came out, "To lunch?" Dominick asked, walking up to Sarah and putting his arm around her.
"Let's go!" Cassie said, smiling as she and Eric V led the way to lunch.
The six of them, Bridget Zabini, Cassie Malfoy, Sarah Baker, Eric Bryant, Eric Vance, and Dominick Andrews, set their stuff down at their table in the direct center of the cafeteria when Sarah saw Jake mopping the floor. As the rest of them sat down, waiting to go get their food she walked over to Jake. "What'd you do Jake?"
"I didn't start a food fight and get detention if that's what you're asking." Jake said, turning bright red, "Okay. I did. But don't tell Mom!"
"I got detention too Jake."
"What'd you do?"
"Laughed at some people in Social Studies, nothing big. The Eric's will be there to suffer with me."
"Ah, I'll have Taylor, Mikey, Nick, Zach, and Andy with me. So yeah, it won't be /as/ bad as it could be."
Sarah shook her head at her little brother, "Why'd you start a food fight?"
"Because Victor and Trent were starting crap with me again."
"Ugh. And Mom and Dad wonder why you're suspended so much." Sarah looked at the doors, all the people were starting to enter, "And I got to go to my table now so we can eat. Talk to you later Jakie."
Jake blushed bright red, "Don't call me that!"
Sarah went and sat down at her spot in between Dominick and Eric V. "So, what'd I miss?"
"Nothing. Janelle tried to take your spot but EV here wouldn't let her, stole the chair made her fall on her bum." Bridget said, smiling. "My BG is high if you couldn't tell." She said, smiling.
"We definitely couldn't tell." Cassie said, sarcastically.
The lunch people, Mrs. Gray, and Mr. Pruitt came over to their table and dismissed them to go get their food. Eric B and Cassie had brought their lunches so they stayed at the table, while the other 4 went up to the line.
Dominick, Eric V, and Sarah got in the line for main course, which today was pizza. Bridget got in the line for salad, "Pizza is gross!" She said to the three of them as they entered.
"Are you a true American?" Dominick asked her.
"Of course I am. I just don't like pizza. I find it weird and disgusting to me."
Sarah looked at Bridget with a raised eyebrow, "You are weird." she said.
After the four of them got and paid for their lunches they went back to the table. Where the discussion was about none other than lacrosse.
Sarah took a bite of her pizza, swallowed it and jumped into the conversation, "Speaking from the attack position, it's not that hard to score. Especially against the Hawthorne Hawks! They are sooo horrible!" She said, then she took a sip of her apple juice.
Bridget nodded in agreement, "Yeah. The Hawks suck. Eagles soar high forever." She said, eating some of her salad.
Cassie smiled, "That would make a good cheer!" She said, she was head of the cheerleading team and Janelle never let her forget that Janelle had almost won. "Hawks. Suck. Eagles. Soar High! How long? Forever! How long? Forever! I can't hear you! FOREVER!" She said, reciting the cheer she had come up with in 30 seconds, not even.
Eric B smiled, "That's pretty good Cass."
"Thanks Bryant." Cassie said, smiling.
Time ticked by as they talked about sports and other stuff. Like their trip to the Zone this weekend. Eric B was going with Cassie. Eric V was going with Bridget, and Dominick was going to go with Sarah. "It'll rock you guys. We are going to rule the Zone this weekend." Sarah said, smiling.
"You got it SB." Eric V said, messing around with Sarah.
Janelle had overheard Eric V calling Sarah SB, "You know, SB is BS backwards." She said, trying to make Sarah mad. Something she never gave up on.
"Oh gosh, my initials are you backwards." Sarah said. Everyone at her table laughed, actually understanding what she meant.
Janelle simply walked by in a huff. The Six Amigos threw out their trays and exited the cafeteria. They went to their lockers and all met at Sarah's locker, "2 classes left…" Eric B said. "Counting down till our Dying Day."
Cassie frowned, "It won't be that bad EB." She said, his arm was around her shoulder as they were all talking. "At least its only one day right?"
"If she hadn't put Janelle AND Maggie by us, none of this would have ever happened." Eric V said, kicked a random plastic bottle on the ground.
"Don't worry about it hun." Bridget said, "We're going to get our revenge this weekend." She said, smiling.
"I like the way you think Bee." Sarah said, slamming her locker, "I have Science. Finally. A good class." She said.
Eric V looked at the 5 of them, "Well, me and EB have Study Hall right now, so we'll start planning our revenge." He said, smirking.
"I like the way you think EV." Cassie said, "As for me! I have chorus. C'mon Bee!" She said, grabbing Bridget's arm and dragging her downstairs, to the music rooms.
"Where do you got to go Dom?" Sarah asked him as the Eric's ran off.
"Social Studies."
"Behave yourself." Sarah said, "We don't want you in the position I'm in. Actually, we do. But I don't want you to get in trouble." She said, hugging him as she ran off towards room 234, her science class with Mr. White.
She sat down at one of the lab tables. There were 4 rows of 3 tables, and each table held 2 students. Sarah sat with Rachel, from her math class. "Ugh… Not Miss Priss…" She thought to herself as she stared at the white-board.
Rachel stormed in and sat down next to Sarah, a tear ran down her cheek.
Sarah raised her eyebrow and looked at Rachel, "Are you okay?" She asked, she may have not been Rachel's #1 fan, but she hated to see people upset.
Rachel wiped a tear from her eye, "Yeah. I'm fine." She said, staring at the white-board now herself.
Science was Sarah's favorite class, and because she was actually worried about Rachel, it seemed to take forever to end. As soon as it ended she bolted to Gym, her last class of the day, to tell Bridget. "Bee!" She said as she ran over to her best friend. "Rachel Michaels came into science like… 10 minutes late, crying."
"Rachel as in Janelle's Rachel?"
Sarah nodded.
"I was talking to Corey, Rachel's boyfriend, and he said that he thinks she's a slut and broke up with her at lunch!" Bridget said, "Meaning that the gorgeous hunk of man is available."
"And you are taken. By Eric Marshall Vance." Sarah said, poking her friend in the shoulder.
Bridget smiled, "I know."
Sarah smirked at Bridget, "Good. As long as you know that."
The gym class flew by, as Sarah did her impressions of Rachel during Science, and Bridget laughed at them.
At the end of class Sarah went to her locker and met up with the Eric's. "Ready to go face our doom?" She asked as she slammed her locker shut.
"No." Eric V said, cringing at the thought of spending a whole hour with Ms. Green.
Eric B shook his head as well, "I don't want to. But we have to." He said, as he began walking towards the room of Ms. Green.
Eric V and Sarah slowly followed him. They all walked into the room and went straight to the back of the room. Sitting next to each other, not knowing what was going on.
Ms. Green walked in. She was about to start talking when Dominick came in, and sat down in the back with Sarah, Eric, and Eric. "Now that we're all here." Ms. Green said to them, "You can all fill out these success plans. And then you will be redoing the classwork that you did not do because of your interruptions."
Sarah looked at Dominick, "What'd you do?" She asked him, a bit shocked.
Dominick scratched the back of his head. "I kind of got mad and chucked a desk across the room, and hit that new girl Andrea in the back with the chair of it."
Sarah, Eric, and Eric looked shocked. But Eric V was the only one willing to say anything, "You threw a desk!"
Dominick blushed, "Yeah.."
"What a loser." Sarah said, sticking her tongue out at Dominick.
"You 4 can go home now." Ms. Green said, opening the door for them.
The four friends bolted out the door and got on the late buses to get home.
When Sarah arrived at home, she saw a very angry Kate Baker standing at the door.
