Chapter 4
~~~~~Maddy's~P.O.V~~~~
I'd set my Alarm for 6:00am because I knew I would hit snooze about five or six times. But today I hit it seven, new personal best.
I only just managed to roll out of bed and crawl my way to the bathroom with what little energy I have. Every time I moved forward I let out a loud growl, I'm surprised I didn't wake mam and dad.
When I'd finally finished getting ready I had plenty of time to slowly stroll to the bus stop. Hopefully Shan will be there and can keep me awake so I don't miss the bus. She wasn't.
I was shaken awake by tom, he was laughing at me again, he did this every no moon day. No moon days were hilarious to tom and Shan but not me, it made me incredibly grumpy.
"Alright mads, taking a nap before school"
"Maybe, I can not be bothered with school today"
"Neither can I but , oh well"
"I feel terrible, is this how all humans feel everyday because I feel sorry for you guys, you have no energy"
" I feel insulted but that comment, what's wrong with being human"
"I have no energy, none of my senses and if I need to blow off steam I can't run as fast, long story short being human sucks"
"Now I'm offended"
"Sorry, hey Shans coming now, maybe we can change the subject"
Shan jogged at the pace of snail, trying to quickly make her way over to us. When she finally arrived she was breathless. It took her a moment to catch her breath but she started to talk.
"Mads what's up with you"
"What'd you think"
"No moon day Shan"
"Oh great grumpy Maddy"
The bus finally arrived and drove us to school on the minuscule country roads. I'm almost certain that I fell asleep on the bus because by the time we got there I couldn't remember the journey.
~~~~~At School~~~~~
Shan managed to drag me into form, according to Shan I fell asleep, apparently Jimi and his mates were throwing paper balls into my mouth. I really need to start sleeping with my mouth closed.
"Smith, Smith, Maddy Maddy smith wake up" I didn't budge.
"Shannon wake up Maddy, now"
"Yes sir"
"Maddy, come on wake up"
I looked straight up to see a furious mr Jefferies starring at me.
" Maddy come back at lunch to see me, you now have a detention"
The entire form laughed loudly, this was a great start to the day.
Detention Score : 1
The bell rang to signal 1st period, maths. I slept through all of it but then again so did mr Clark, he was old and didn't really always do his job but i didn't mind it meant I could sleep.
2nd period was no better, biology with Miss parish so yeah it was no fun. I fell asleep in a practical science experiment, which then earned me another detention.
Detention Score : 2
By 4th period which was drama, we had act out a murder scene so as usual I went with tom and Shan. I decided I would be a murder victim who was laying dead on the floor. In my case this was really helpful I could just sleep, that's all my role required. I was praised for my excellent performance, it was happiest I'd been all day.
At lunch I went to see mr Jeffries, I got to his room and slouched down at a table.
" maddy why were you sleeping in form"
"Tired sir"
"From what, if I may ask"
"Homework"
"Homework?"
"Yes, sir Homework"
"Your telling me you were up all night doing homework"
"Yes, sir , sorry... I was trying to do my homework to a good standard" lying wasn't my best quality if you couldn't tell.
"Right off you go, I believe you have a detention with Miss parish after school for falling asleep in her class"
"Yes?"
"Don't turn up I'll have a word and tell her you were doing homework, don't worry about your detention with her, leave it to me"
"Thanks sir"
For someone who usually thinks I'm up to no good he can be quite nice at times when you least expect it. That's the great thing about humans they can surprise you when you least expect it.
5th period came around it was English so I stayed awake for mr Jeffries sake.
~~~~~At home~~~~~
As I walked through the door I dumped my bag and took strides up the stairs as I went to my room. I pushed open the door and jumped for bed completely missing. I made the loudest thud ever, this time I woke mam. I lifted my head, sitting up next to my bed for support.
Mam some how managed to make her way up the stairs and gasped in the doorway of my room.
"Maddy, your nose"
"What about it?"
"It bleeding, come here lets get you cleaned"
Mam brought me down to the kitchen, she cleaned up my bloody nose with fatigue. I went straight back to my bed room and lied on my bed soon falling asleep excited to feel myself again, tomorrow.
Thanks for reading, I can't wait to bring out more chapters and I hoped you enjoyed this one.
