Chapter three
"Thanks Darren" Scarlet said, and began to walk away when Darren grabbed her arm
"Like I said, if Fitzgerald find out I know who to come to" Darren said and started walking to the school, Scarlet sighed as her phone started to vibrate it was Justin. Scarlet wondered to school when she saw everyone with babies, Justin was outside the school gate.
"Where were you this morning?" Justin questioned
"I had to sort something" Scarlet shrugged "This is a joke...its like she's rubbing it in our faces"
"Exactly what she's doing three weeks and its getting worse and worse" Justin said
"Yeah" Scarlet said "I better go, I'll see you at lunch" Scarlet said walking of - Justin was right it was getting worse and worse, she had none of her old friends, she had made no new friends and she felt invisible. Scarlet sat in the toilet and started crying and took out one of her joints.
After that Scarlet walked into class, and it was cooking with Maggie,
"I'm not making baby food" Scarlet refused,
"Yes you are come on get your apron on" Maggie said, Scarlet rolled her eyes and sat down watching everyone get their aprons on as Shazney walked in.
"You'll never guess what Justin Fitzgerald just did" she said
"What did he do?" Scarlet interrupted,
"This is a private conversation" Shazney said
"not when its concerning my brother its not" Scarlet replied "Well go on then!"
"Oi Fitzgerald pipe down" Lisa said
"Justin threw a doll at Allie" Shazney said
"Good I bet she deserved it" Scarlet said "I have to go now, I'm not doing anything for that wicked witch of the west" Scarlet grabbed her bag and walked off,
Scarlet was walking down the corridor and she saw Justin and her dad looking very intense
"Justin!" Scarlet ran up to them
"What are you doing here? Your supposed to be in class" Vaughan hissed at her
"Well were doing that crap baby thing and I'd rather not thanks" Scarlet said
"Scarlet get to class this is between me and Justin" Vaughan replied
"Well where are you taking him?" Scarlet questioned
"Cooler" Justin rolled his eyes
"Scarlet go to class now," Vaughan told her "I'm taking him to the cooler you two are keeping separated he's a bad influence on you"
"No he's not!" Scarlet argued
"Why do you always argue on everything I say?"
"Because your to blame, always sticking up for your precious Allie" Scarlet hissed at him
"Stop it" Vaughan said sternly "GO TO CLASS NOW!"
Scarlet groaned and decided not to fight this one and shoved pass Vaughan and then the bell rang thank god for that, she went into the toliet to get out the second back she had brought from Darren but was interrupted and caught red handed by Shazney and Lisa.
"Are you gonna grass on me?" Scarlet questioned them
"Didn't think you of all people would be doing this" Lisa replied
"I don't like my dad" Scarlet shrugged
"For being head teacher?" Shazney questioned
"No...you don't know what he's like trust me all this is just a bloody front he's a horrible man, I hate him" Scarlet shook her head
"Well we're gonna be telling," Lisa said Scarlet's eyes widened "What we don't wanna be getting in trouble,"
"NO! You won't I promise!" Scarlet said abruptidly, just then as if things couldn't get any worse Tiffany walked in Scarlet placed the weed in her pocket.
"Everything alright?" Tiffany wondered
"What's it to you?" Scarlet snapped at her "Thanks to your stupid mum Justin's in the cooler all day and now I'm billy no mates" Scarlet said "Not to mention the past year"
"That's not my mum's fault maybe you should start looking at yourself for a change" Tiffany came out with and walked out, Lisa and Shazney started laughing Scarlet was left in the toilet for a minute this wasn't her fault! She scurried after her,
"HEY!" Scarlet roughly turned Tiffany around "THIS ISN'T MY FAULT, THIS IS ALL YOUR STUPID FAMILIES FAULT IF IT WASN'T FOR THEM I WOULDN'T BE STUCK HERE!" Scarlet screamed at her and pushed her Tiffany pushed her back
"Maybe you should ask your mother oh wait you can't she's in a mental hospital" Tiffany replied, Scarlet grabbed Tiffany by her hair and slammed her into the wall before throwing her onto the floor and throwing slaps at her trying to strangle the girl, eventually Vaughan came and grabbed Scarlet by the arm, whilst the other students gathered.
"What the hell do you think you are doing you stupid girl?" Vaughan Shouted at Scarlet as Allie came along, Scarlet moved her blonde hair out of her face
"She started it" Scarlet came out with "She was saying stuff about mum"
"Tiffany wouldn't do that" Allie argued
"She did!" Scarlet glared at her "I would lash out like some crazy person your making me out to be!" Scarlet argued
"Right go to the cooler and sit wfor the rest of the day, away from Justin...NOW!" Vaughan said, Scarlet grinned and began to walk away
"Vaughan...that's exactly what she wants!" Allie fought
"I've got know where else to send her" Vaughan shrugged
"Make her sit in my art room" Allie said Vaughan hurried after Scarlet and grabbed her arm,
"Your going to sit with Allie for the rest of the day" Vaughan said
"NO!" Scarlet resisted, "YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!"
"Yes I can, your being very immature Scarlet, stop this now, or I will send you somewhere away from your brothers you will be completely alone and I mean it" Vaughan threatened "I said the same to Justin this morning you are going to apologise to Allie and Tiffany, and the rest of us..."
"But I haven't done anything she was the one that started it!"
"You, Will, Do, It, otherwise, I've had it with you, and Justin, is that clear?" Vaughan questioned
"Get off me" Scarlet replied shuffling away
"SCARLET!"
"Yes!" Scarlet shouted
"Good now get in there!" Vaughan said and pushed her in, where Allie was with the rest of her class, which wasn't even Scarlet's year this was Floyd's class she side and sat down on a desk on her own. Thinking about her own mother, how lonely she must be if only she was here now. What would she say to all of this? Her dad didn't even give her a chance to defend herself that shows how bias he is about his new family, new job, new life, they are just a burden. She wanted to go home desperately. She wanted to cry so much. Allie was making her life miserable, she was going out of her way to do so.
The bell rang, Allie approached Scarlet cautiously but she grew more confidently, but first she shut the door.
"What?" Scarlet said without warning, Allie slapped Scarlet across the face hard, hard that she cut her lip. Scarlet went to bring her finger to her mouth but Allie grabbed her wrist. Then Allie reached into her pocked and grabbed her weed which was in there.
"I've had enough, three weeks now since you and your brother have started trouble" Allie started, Scarlet was still eyeing the weed catiously, she tried to reach out but Allie snatched it
"Yeah well I had a whole year" Scarlet said "Without my dad, thanks to you" Scarlet added
"You are making everybody's live here difficult, and you are not being physically violent towards Tiffany or Floyd, otherwise, I will not be held responsible for my actions" Allie stated
"Are you threatening me?" Scarlet questioned
"No that's a promise" Allie said and roughly let go off her wrist so she fell backwards onto the floor, she got up just as Vaughan came, back as it was now the end of a long day,
"Whatever drugs, you are doing by all means do them, if your out of the way...then that's one less problem isn't it?" Allie questioned sarcastically "Just keep them away from my daughter and I'm sure Vaughan will be glad for you to do this to yourself" Allie said giving her the drugs back, Scarlet put them back in her pocket as Vaughan walked in.
"Everything alright?" Vaughan looked at the two of them
"Everything's fine" Allie lied as if she hadn't just intimidated Scarlet and slapped her then pushed her.
"What happened to your lip?" Vaughan questioned
"I..." Scarlet thought for a moment, "I just. walked into the door"
"Okay then," Vaughan said "Let's get out of here," Vaughan smiled at Allie practically ignoring his daughter
"Where's Justin?" Scarlet interrupted
"He's with Tiffany" Vaughan said and walked out with Allie, Scarlet's heart sank. Why was Justin with Tiffany? What was his game? She really needed to find Darren and get some more weed before she tomorrow night bag so she got out her IPhone and started texting him
'meet me the place before and get me two more bags tomorrow' Scarlet said, and walked out the classroom
She didn't go home it was clear nobody wanted her there, instead she carried on walking to a club she knows, taking of her tie and blazer dumping them and letting her blonde hair fall...
