At last the weekend is right around the corner. Mr. White is propped against the width of his desk. He greets the youth that are filling the room with a half-hearted smile. Just when he thinks to count Jesse out once again; a dirty-blond, spiky-haired punk drags his feet over to him. Walt's look on his face hardens and he notices Jesse's irritated eyes. Jesse pulls a folded, jagged, paper ninja star out of his hoodie and holds it up to the teacher.

"Boom! How do 'ya like this?!" Jesse finishes with a growly giggle that sounds light like a hum.

Walt takes it from him. His brows jump and fall and he says, "Ah, thank you. I suppose I'd 'like' it if I were still interested in childish things." He addresses to everyone, "Welcome Jesse back, everybody. We all missed him didn't we?"

The response comes as a wave of laughs and a few "no's."

Jesse turns away. He whispers, "Tch. Whatever, geezer," he goes to join the others. He hopes Mr. White looks inside the note. It'll be enough to get him to stop breathing down his neck and scare him shitless, too.

"Luckily, we have an easy lab today," Walt adjusts his glasses.

A male student next to Jesse looks him over; of course, Jesse gets the feeling and makes the mistake of returning the gaze. The kid curls a fist near his mouth and pokes his tongue-in-cheek, then, nods in Mr. White's direction.

Jesse shrinks in on himself like a turtle trying to hide in its shell. He anticipates he's about to turn red but doesn't. His voice is lowered but clear if you're close by, "Jesus Christ on a pogo stick, bitch!" Immediately on impulse, Jesse kicks the dude's chair's leg. He almost falls out of his seat as it scrapes the floor and wobbles. Nice one.

"Ha. Sir, he just kicked me, uh, Jesse. For no reason."

"Aw, bullshit. You um," honestly, he couldn't really say it because it was too awkward, "gave me a dirty sign."

Walter White barked, "Hey! Is this Preschool or High-school? Anymore distractions will not go unpunished!"

"Ooo," Jesse mocks. Getting suspended would be up there in the best things to happen to him behind getting laid and dope right now.
