Okay, I'm sorry it's been a few weeks since I updated, and I hope this is okay. Thank you.
Chapter FourOnce I had gotten to my classroom, I realized it was only 7:45, which meant I had fifteen minutes before class started. I didn't know if the class had assigned seats, so I stood up against the classroom wall, feeling like an idiot.
Ten minutes later the teacher came in, and went straight to the board and started writing on it. She didn't EVEN notice me. I was quite shocked about that, but before I could say anything, an Indian boy, wearing glasses and carrying a few textbooks came in.
"Good morning miss." The boy said cheerfully.
"Good morning Kevin." The teacher replied still writing on the board.
The boy, 'Kevin' started going to a seat when another boy went passed, pushing him over. Kevin looked annoyed, but then another boy, who had been walking behind the bully came and helped Kevin up.
"Thanks Josh." Kevin said, and took a seat at the front of the class. I then noticed three girls come in. They were all dressed in mini skirts and midriff baring shirts, that made me think they were from a porn movie. They all sat down at the same time, and flicked their hair.
I wrinkled my nose in disgust.
"Sorry I'm late miss, I – ahhh." A nerdy girl came running in, only to be tripped by one of the whores.
"Have a nice trip." The girl said, and the three of them laughed. "See you in the fall."
Kevin then got out of his chair and helped the girl up.
"Oooh, Kevin and Leesa sitting in a tree, K-I- double S-I-N- " The leader started singing.
"Leave us alone." Leesa whined, and took her seat.
I was shocked at how childish these girls were being. It was…sickening.
"Oh, Miss, Miss, we have a new student." Leesa said, pointing at me.
The teacher finally noticed my presence and smiled. "Ah yes, Stella white. Welcome to my class. Take a seat."
I went and took the only seat that was left, which happened to be between Leesa and the 'leader' of the bitches.
"I'm Bella." The leader said to me, and I turned and forced a smile on my face.
"Hi." I said, before I turned to look at the teacher again.
"Yes, well…you're very privileged I'm even talking to you, as I am incredibly popular." She bragged and I nodded absently.
"I'm the principal's daughter." She continued and I almost laughed. It figures, I thought sourly, they're exactly the same. Bella then brought out a mirror and smiled into it. "Mirror, mirror in my hand, I'm so gorgeous and I sing in a band. Mirror, mirror isn't it true? I'm a babe, and a sexy one too." (A/N: This part is from the play and it was so fanny the way she did it, that I had to write it in. remember, this was a children's play, so it's a bit cheesy.)
Bella closed her mirror and looked around expectantly. "And you all say 'Yes Bella you are the best and we all wish we had your charm and personality."
I had to bit my tongue as the class half-heartedly repeated what she said. I could clearly hear her clones, saying it clearly through the mumbles.
Bella turned and looked at me smugly. "You see, I'm the boss around here."
'Oh my God, is this girl for real?' I thought, as a giggle escaped my lips.
"Okay class, your going to copy these notes down and then we'll have a quiz." The teacher said, writing notes onto the board.
'Great.' I thought miserably. 'First day of school, and I get to be part of a quiz.'
"Question One," The teacher said a few minutes later. "Who wrote Cosi?"
The whole class was silent, except for Bella who stood up smiling. "Louis Nowra."
"Correct." The teacher smiled. "Question Two, What was the name of the michievious fairy in A Midsummer Night's Dream?"
I looked over a Bella, then I stood up. "Puck."
"Correct. Question three, name two books written by by Charles Dickens."
This time Bella and Kevin both stood up. Bella's girls stood up and indicated to Kevin to sit down. Bella turned to the teacher. "Have you forgotten who my mother is?"
"Sit down Kevin." The teacher said, and he looked at her confused, as though just figuring out that not everyone could play this game.
Bella smirked. "A Christmas Carol and Great Expectations."
"Correct. Question four. Who is Oscar Wilde?"
I stood up this time, determined to beat Bella in this quiz. "A poet. He also wrote the novel The Picture of Dorian Grey."
"Correct. Question Five. Name three classic fairy tales that were re-made by Walt Disney."
This time half the class stood up, including Kevin.
"Sit down class." The teacher comanded and the class sat down. "Yes Bella?"
"Cinderella, Snow White and Beauty and the Beast."
"Correct. Question Six. Who wrote Macbeth?"
I snorted with laughter. This question was too easy. I stood up. "William Shakespeare."
"Correct. Question Seven. Name three of the seven dwarfs from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."
Bella stood up. "That's easy. Grumpy, Dopey and Silly."
"Cor – incorrect." The teacher stuttered in surprise. The whole class gasped and Bella looked like she was having a seizure.
"Are you sure?" Bella asked. 'Check the answers again."
"Yes, I'm sure." The teacher said faintly.
"It's okay." I smiled cheefully. "Silly is a tiny teddy. (A/N: Does everyone else get tiny teddy's outside of Australia?) It's an easy mistake to make. The seven dwarves are Bashful, Dopey, Sneezy, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy and Doc."
"Correct." The teacher said. "That's the end of the pop quiz, the person with the most correct answers is…Stella White."
Once again a gasp went round the room. Most of the students looked at me in admiration, while others looked at me in disgust (Bella and her clones).
At that moment the bell rang, and everyone filed out of the classroom. I went to leave, but Bella stood in front of me, looking quite mad.
"You think you're good don't you?" She hissed. "Embarrassing me like that in front of everyone. Beating me in the pop quiz. Well you're not that good. You're just a brain with bad fashion sense."
I looked down at my clothes feeling a tiny bit insulted. My clothes weren't that bad. Or maybe it was the fact that they actually covered my ass, unlike Bella's skirt.
"But you better stop trying to steal my crown, because I'm the hot, brainy, muscian chick and it's going to stay that way. I'm not going to just be the hot muscian chick, I've got to keep the brainy part. So back off and come back when you're dumber, because despite my fiendly appearance…I can be a bitch." With that she stopped yelling at me and turned around, leaving the classroom.
I watched her leave, laughing. I didn't doubt that she could be a bitch, but if this was her friendly appearance, I don't want to see what the bitch will be like. It was so funny listening to her go on about how 'cool' she was though. This girl needed to get back down to Earth. I remembered who her mother was though and sighed again. She had no hope. After all, like mother like daughter.
I then left the room, and headed down the hall in the direction of my dance class.
Hey, I hope you all liked this chapter...please review and I'll love you for life.
Okay and now I shall reply to my most loved ones - my reviewers!
Alenor: Thank you for reviewing, please review this chapter. Principals not in this chapter (as you have read) and she's not in the next one, but she'll be in the chapter afterwards. Promise.
FanFictionFantom: yep, the principal is wack...and crazy, but that's a whole different matter which will be discussed in further chapters. Hope you keep reading.
panemonium: Hello, thank you for your review, I loved it. Yes, in the first two chapters she did seem very shy and beautiful (which she is) but she also wears dark clothes and is a bit depressed (from not having any real friends). She's not really a goth though because she doesn't go right out with the make up and everything, only eyeliner. Stella's more punk-goth style. If that makes sense. Yes, you're right everyone she's met so far are beautiful people, that you for saying it has a good effect. Also, the mirror is not actually a mirror in this, but I still have something that resembles the mirror. It'll be introduced in the enxt few chapters. Once again, thank you for reviewing.
Kuyaga: Thank you for reviewing, and I hope to update more regularly, but I can't make any promises.
Queen Tatooine: Wow...I feel really special. Thank you for reviewing, it really does mean a lot to me.
Once again, thank you everyone, I love you all!
