He headed over to his locker slightly annoyed where Darwin and Anais were waiting for him.
"There you are! I was beginning to think you weren't gonna make it."
Anais looked him up and down. "Why are you so wet?"
"It started raining."
"Ah, right. Well you should probably go dry your clothes out then."
"Oh yeah, why didn't I think of that. Saves me sitting in wet clothes all morning."
"I'll see you at lunch then I guess." She began to walk towards her class turning to wave at him.
"Alright, have a good day!" Darwin cheerfully replied.
"Will do!" She went around the corner.
Darwin turned to Gumball as they headed to the bathroom. "God, you look like a drowned rat."
"You don't say."
They entered the bathroom to find the dryer out of order.
"aaand, the dryer's broken, because of course it is."
"Guess you'll have to do it the old fashioned way."
He'd sigh and strip, twisting each piece of clothing over the sink to get as much water he could out of them.
"I guess that'll have to do, still damp though." He got dressed again.
"Better than dripping wet."
"Yeah, better than nothing I suppose."
"Well, we should get to class, it's about to start."
"Ugh, time to be bored as heck.."
They got their books and entered the classroom sitting down.
Ms. Simian came in and did the attendance.
"Right, now onto the lesson. Now, what better way to start a Monday morning than..."
She took out a large stack of papers and slammed them on the desk.
"A pop quiz!"
The whole class groaned.
Oh come on! As if this morning wasn't bad enough already, now I have to do a dumb test!?
His earlier good mood had by now completely gone. He was now annoyed and miserable.
Ms Simian handed the tests out.
Four pages!? How sadistic is she!?
The class reluctantly started their test.
About 10 minutes later he saw a piece of crumbled paper land on his desk.
"What..?"
He opened it and saw an insulting drawing of Ms.Simian and held back laughter.
Suddenely it was snatched out of his hand.
"What is this!?" Ms Simian screeched. "Well I never! An hour detention, after school!"
"Wait what!? But I didn't-"
"No buts! Back to your test!"
He sighed even more annoyed. Great, a detention for something I didn't do. Just what I needed.
A couple minutes later he felt someone tapping his back.
"Psst, psst!"
"What Tobias?" He whispered annoyed.
"What's the answer to Question 8?"
"I don't know, I just guessed!"
"Oh ho, trying to cheat are we Watterson?"
Gumball shot around. "What!? No, Tobi-"
"I don't want excuses, go to the Principal's office, now!"
"But-"
"NOW!"
Gumball angrily got up and left the room, slamming the door behind him.
He clenched his fist. He was starting to get really annoyed now. He had missed the school bus, gotten drenched in rain, wasn't able to dry his clothes properly, had gotten a detention because of someone's drawing and now got sent to the Pricipal's office! This was so unfair!
