Chapter Ten
The second day of school appeared almost as soon as yesterdays. Luckily Kathy and Mike never saw the missing window. Amy looked across the school ground, it was like yesterday. As everyone was pretty much doing the same thing. Danny and his friends were smoking again, no major surprise.
"Gis' a ciggie" Cameron Walker, Walker's brother spoke to Danny.
"Nah Cam, ask your brother" Danny didn't want to feel the wrath of Walker again.
"Gis us one, I 'dun 'nottin like' gis us one" Cameron turned up the volume in his voice. As he looked between Danny and Trevor.
"Okay" Trevor passed him one, he didn't give a shit about Walker's reaction.
Danny shook his head, he knew he should not hang out with Trevor Royle. No doubt Trevor will get arrested before his 18th birthday. Though Danny was no better, the only thing he refuses to do is beat on younger people at least. So he got some morals.
"What's in it like?" Cameron asked, smoking the 'ciggie'.
"Nothing, honest" Trevor replied with a grin.
Amy sighed, walking towards the entrance of the school. As she looked towards the boys who were standing in front of the doors. She sighed again, turning around again.
"Hey Amy" Dodger spoke, with a cheeky smile. As he started to walk with her.
"Hi" Amy replied, she didn't mind Dodger. It was only Ste she wanted to avoid really, after their encounter yesterday.
"Are you alright? 'Coz Ste won't go near ya like that again, so don't worry" Dodger replied with another smile.
"I just want to forget about it" Amy admitted.
"No, you stupid git!" a voice shouted across the school ground, making everyone turn towards it. As Kevin looked furious.
"You wanna get lung cancer or something" Kevin hissed, walking over to Cameron who was smoking away like a chimney.
"I didn't realize you were the lung cancer cop" Cameron replied sarcastic.
"Why does he always do that?" Amy asked Dodger, referring to Kevin who seems to be on a mission to stop everyone from acting bad.
"'I 'dun't no he's weird" Dodger replied.
"Oh this will all kick of now" Dodger spoke.
He seen Walker coming through the school gates with his arm around Shawnee, with a 'ciggie' in his mouth. As he looked towards Cameron smoking who quickly passed it to Kevin, looking down on his shoes. Walker is more of a father to Cameron, than his own father.
"Twat!" a voice hissed from inside the school. It was Ste, who dislikes Walker with a vengeance.
"Ste can't help himself" Dodger spoke quietly to Amy as Walker shoved past.
"Steven, I think you like watching me protecting you" Brendan spoke, going in front of him.
"Nah, I need to be on my best behavior Brendan so I leave your boy alone for now, besides I don't like hitting blonde bimbos" Walker replied, walking towards Cameron.
"See Bren, he won't hurt me" Ste insisted.
"In school Steven, outside of school he would do anything to ya" Brendan replied, he wasn't happy with Ste making trouble for himself on purpose almost.
"That twat just called me a blonde bimbo" Ste hissed, giving Walker a dirty look of hatred. The second sentence was a jarring mood change.
"He isn't a twat, he is an idiot if he thinks he can get away with that" Brendan spoke, as he walked towards him.
"Ste, stop getting Brendan to beat up people; does it turn you on or something?" Justin asked though he already spoke again before Ste could answer.
"Actually, don't answer that" Justin added quickly.
"I'm getting kinda sick of being called stuff by the likes of him" Ste replied finally, placing his hands in his pockets.
Amy eyes widened as she walked towards the entrance to the school again with Dodger besides her.
Brendan and Walker never fight in front of people really, otherwise one would end up dead on the school grounds more than likely.
"Oh hey Mrs Dean" Justin spoke, as she walked past. When she was down the hall, his friends turned towards him.
"Oh hey Mrs Dean" Ste spoke sarcastic.
"Shut it" Justin playfully nudged him.
Amy sat down on the railing where the boys were, as Dodger sat next to her. The railing went from across the exit door. It could fit seven people on there, it wasn't a seat but they used it at one.
"Look I stole this" Ste took out a book, Dodger snatched it of him and chucked it at the wall for fun.
"Oi!" Ste shouted, as he quickly picked up the book from the floor. Sitting back down on the railing besides Justin.
"So Amy, what sort of music you listen to?" Dodger asked getting out his Nokia slide.
Justin blue-toothed him a load of songs. It had all the new music like Fall Out Boy, Eminem, 50 Cent and those types of songs on it.
"Look I got a Eminem and 50 cent song on it" Dodger told her, trying to impress her.
As he showed her his list of music, it had ten songs but that was 'boss' to them. Since the normal song list ratio is 10:3 to these students.
"Oh I got three songs" Amy told him.
"Better than Ste, he ain't got a phone" Dodger smiled.
"Shut up, anyway I have this" Steven took out a mini CD player from his pocket, it was a circular CD player with headphones.
As he showed them the Now that what I call music 63 CD, the latest of the now series, he took out the headphones so he could play it out loud.
"How the hell did you get that? Pass it here, let me see the songs" Justin spoke, as the first song which played was Corinne Bailey Rae : "Put Your Records On"
"Awesome all the latest songs as well, did you steal it like?" Justin asked, aware they were listening to a pretty 'feminine' song.
"Yeah, from HMV" Ste admitted.
"Let's see" Dodger spoke, Justin passed it on to him, Ste looking over. Wanting it back, hoping Dodger don't chuck it like his book.
"Cool, Ste put on you spin me round by dead and alive" Dodger passed him back the case. As Ste changed it to that song he wanted.
"Do you like this song Amy?" Dodger asked, turning his attention back to her. She just nodded, as the song blared out. The teachers were none the wiser.
"Let's see ya phone" Dodger spoke looking at Amy.
She reluctantly got it out, also revealing a Nokia slide. Most kids in the school had Nokia slides, it was the only phone most people's parents could afford.
"Nah, I'm putting on my humps, the black-eyed peas new song, you heard it?" Ste asked, changing the track again.
"Oh yeah I have" Dodger said, with a laugh.
"This song is so dirty" Justin spoke with a smile.
"Yeah which is why you love it" Dodger joked, moving closer to Amy.
"Dammit, its assembly today; is it in the PE area or the proper assembly room?" Dodger asked Justin who shrugged with Ste.
"I bet they talk about Year 11 again" Justin presumed.
"Yeah I know, I mean we know about Year 11 already; it's not like we need reminding every flipping day" Ste piped up.
"I ask Kevin when he is done shouting at Cameron" Dodger told them. Just as Texas Longford walked in with Leanne Holiday.
"Hey Tex, where is assembly?" Dodger asked.
"You're a smart boy, you work it out" Texas spoke, Leanne laughed with her. As they walked down the opposite hallway.
"Damn, I thought we were alright; we use to be mates" Dodger spoke to Amy, so she wouldn't know it was his ex girlfriend.
"Oh yes, this song is awesome" Dodger spoke as The Ordinary Boys : "Boys Will Be Boys song played, as Ste turned it up louder. To full blast this time, the teachers were still none the wiser.
"Vinnie, where's assembly?" Dodger asked him, Ste didn't like him. He has been sniffing about his Brendan for some time.
"The proper assembly area" Vinnie spoke quickly, avoiding Ste's stare as he quickly went down the opposite hallway, the one Leanne and Texas went down.
"Twat" Ste called everyone he didn't like a 'twat'.
"Amy, what lessons you got?" Dodger asked, making small talk with her.
"Today I got English then RE, History, Maths and science" Amy told him with a sigh.
"Same, we all must be in same lessons" Dodger presumed.
Just as the bell rang. Ste quickly removed the disk placing it back in the case and placing the headphones and mini circle shaped CD player in his pockets.
"Oh Brendan has got drama today, I got to watch him; he hates drama so it be funny; wanna come and watch the Year 11's drama class?" Ste asked them with a laugh.
"Yeah, some hot girls to watch" Dodger was so shallow and Amy knew it.
As they all reluctantly got up to walk down the hallway. As they all walked down together, having to push past people. It was a busy school, so walking down the hallway was like going through the London tube.
They finally got to the assembly hall.
