Miss. Geknotama (Year 12 coordinator): 35
Chapter five: Promise me.
"Would you ever… leave me?" she remained calm squeezing her fingers, waiting patiently for the blonde to acknowledge her question.
He lifted his head after trailing into thought. What does she mean, leave her? Is she crazy or something! "Why would I leave you? You are everything I want. Everything I have. I would never leave you for anyone, Sora."
She smiled, her eyes suddenly becoming slightly murky. "Thankyou… it really means a whole lot." Matt stood motionless for a second and turned, Sora grabbed his arm dragging his eyes back to her. "Let's make a promise. How about it?"
Matt tilted his head, puzzled by her question. "What do you want me to promise you Sor?"
"Just try and understand it." He nodded. "Promise me, no matter what happens, we will still be together and no matter what the situation we will work through it?"
Her eyes almost drown as he replied. "I promise. No matter what happens, we will be together… forever." He pulled Sora against his chest resting his head on her shoulder.
"And finally here come the two love birds!" Joe wheezed. Taichi and Mimi stood beside him thinking of the different possible comments they could use against them.
Taichi smiled friendly slapping his hand across Matt's "Hey man. Long time, no see." Taichi's smile turned into an irritating grin. Matt rolled his eyes as Tai continued. "What took so long? Were you two getting comfortable again?"
There was a dead silence from Matt. He forced his teeth down on his tongue suppressing the great temptation to answer. "No…" he sighed "Look I think that's a bit too much excitement for one day."
"Yeah Matt exciting for you! We were looking all over for you guys, you think that was fun?" He stopped suddenly and aimed a finger at Matt "I knew you loved her! I was right." Taichi preformed his little victory dance singing 'Taichi was right' in tune of 'staying alive' "Oh yeah! Taichi was right. Taichi was right. Uh. Ah. Uh. Ah-uh! Taichi was riiiiiiiiiiight!"
Sora rubbed her arm, gently laughing "Um… we're sorry. Really, we are… But if no one has yet noticed." Sora sighted a watch on Mimi's wrist, although it had obviously run out of batteries. "… does anyone know what lesson it is?"
Joe was somewhat startled running back towards the school building "What's up with Joe?" Matt asked Taichi. Mimi and Tai laughed, what's so funny? Matt looked over at Sora as she looked up at him as if to say 'what's up with them?'
"Lesson five!" Taichi blasted in their direction, clutching his stomach. He laughed slightly harder shaking his head. "You idiot, you missed lunch! And now Joe has Drama, meaning you have, your favourite teacher!" Taichi said sarcastically. "So if I were you, I'd start running cause you have already missed half the lesson. And then we have…" he opened his student planer searching through his timetable. "Oh! Assembly, how fun! With Miss. Gecnotama."
Matt almost felt his stomach tie itself in knots. "Well I better go, I can't bare to see Mrs B- wait! Miss. Bender even more mad then she already would be at me." He slapped Tai's hand, then Mimi's turning to Sora pulling her against his chest, pressing his lips against hers. "Bye."
The stares she suddenly received were piercing. Tai shook his head and Mimi jumped in circles screaming 'how cute' repetitively. Sora licked the top half of her lips avoiding eye contact with her friends shrugging "What?"
The brunet rolled his eyes waving goodbye to the two girls now standing alone together, Taichi had left for class and Mimi had not gone just yet. "So?" Sora looked at Mimi as if to say 'what are you talking about?' she stomped her foot "Common Sor! Time for a little girl talk!"
"No Mimi." She laughed trying to push off her hand "I have to get to class. Im so busted right now."
"I don't want full detail, just a quick outline." Sora covered her mouth shifting her eyes "It must have been great! You missed a whole lesson and all of lunch!" She pulled on Sora's arm again slightly shaking her sleeve.
"Mimi!" she screamed surprisingly, smiling dropping to a groan. "It was fantastic!" she sighed shifting her books slightly in her arms "Happy?" Mimi nodded, grinning contentedly. "Ok. Common, let's go before we get in even more trouble." Mimi tuned in to Sora's voice, intensively listening to her jibber the whole walk to class, along the way asking questions. Some Sora would not answer.
"Yes, exactly right." Mrs. Bender (now referred to as Miss. Bender) announced. "Ok. I just want to point a few things out. From now on just call me, Miss. Bender." The class remained silent as she sat back at her desk. "Yeah I know, please don't ask questions." She peered through the row of students adding, "Seems a bit quiet. Has anyone seen Matt?"
"Yeah, im here!" he burst through the door panting after a long agonizing sprint. "I would say im sorry im late, but it's a bit too bad im not in a lying mood." Matt slyly smiled at Miss. Bender now calling him to the front of the room.
The brunet's hair neatly tied back in a ponytail as always removing her reading glasses she rarely used. She waited for some sort of rued comment though only received the 'hurry up or im leaving' expression. "Why are you late?" she asked blithely.
Matt shrugged keeping his books together "I don't know. Im always late, why does it matter if im late today, but never any other day?" He smiled cunningly knowing she wouldn't exactly answer the terms and situation with the whole class eavesdropping.
"I want to talk to you after class Matt."
He quickly crafted a comeback "Well I might not want to talk to you."
She shook her head pointing to a seat "Sit down Matt. Im talking to you after class whether you like it or not." Miss. Bender pointed to the whiteboard. 'Read page 137 and answer questions one, two, eight, nine and ten in your workbooks'.
Matt threw down his textbooks and stationary pulling out his chair. He ever so quickly became bored finding a handle on the side of the desk. He lifted it, and it fell making a loud slamming noise. He did it again finding it somewhat distracting "Matt stop playing with that." Miss. Bender ordered.
"I want it to stay up, but it keeps falling down." He lifted the handle again, and it fell clinkering against the table. "It's not staying up."
Miss. Bender watched burying her face in her hands "Matt its not going to stay up! Don't you get it the handle can't stay up? Just try and complete your work." You would think all the times she's asked Matt to either 'stop that' or 'pay attention' she would be practically on the verge of going completely insane.
The blonde, rest his elbows down on his table opening his workbook. From the heap of other books he selected his drama text opening to page 137. His eyes vaguely skimmed each sentence and then the questions based on 'mimes'. This is the most boring lesson ever, and I can't even make it amusing! Think Matt think! What if I peg something at Joe? Who ever said I was a dumb blond is so wrong!
He tore a page from his workbook folding it into a paper aeroplane. He scribbled over it as he had done to many of the pages throughout his book. Perfect shot!
"Ouch!" Joe rubbed the back of his head "What was that for?"
"Joe is there a problem?" Miss. Bender raised her eyebrows curiously asking Joe.
He stuttered "Uh… n-no miss."
"Well, good. Come up here and demonstrate a few basic actions of a mime." She smiled pointing to the centre of the stage.
Matt leaned back in his chair chuckling. Suck Joe! Let's watch you be a clown! Because you were being an interrupting-
"Matt! You look like you have nothing to do, so you may as well come up here and join him." Matt gasped rocking forward from his chair.
Joe jumped up onto the low platform waiting for the blonde. He also stepped up standing opposite Joe. This is stupid, now I have to be a clown! I hate clowns! He shivered, sending an unpleasant chill through his spine.
"So. You can begin when you're ready." She adjusted her seating position laughing in her throat as Matt gritted his teeth.
The two still stood opposing each other. Matt rolled his eyes. Fine dopey! I'll make the first move! Matt lifted his hand smacking Joe across the face.
That really hurt! Stupid Matt. Joe shoved Matt building a mime wall around him. Ha! Now he can't get me!
"Don't push!" Matt shouted and charged forward ramming Joe off stage. "I won! Battle of the fittest I always say!"
"You cheated!"
"That wasn't even what I wanted you to do. Matt" she aimed a strong gaze at the blonde "When a mime builds a box around them it means you can't exactly shove them."
His mouth dropped quickly answering, "I was pretending to be a bulldozer! And I just bulldozed Joe out of my way." He grinned laughing at the young blue haired boy on the floor rising to his feet.
"You pushed me Matt! That isn't fair!"
He smirked. "You pushed me first, girl."
Joe retaliated "Jerk!"
"Bitch."
"Fucker."
"Pixy!" Joe clamped his fists in aggravation, as Matt stood calm after serving out that final insult.
"Hey!" Miss bender interrupted "I can't believe you both. You two have the manners of warthogs." She bellowed out of her honest opinion.
Matt turned his strong language on the teacher "Shutup, you slut!"
"Prick!" Miss. Bender nodded "You're a bastard." The other class students sat watching in awe as the fight continued between Matt and Miss. Bender. "You are the most hot mouthed teenager I have come across."
Joe slowly crept back to his seat avoiding further insults by Matt "I think I have made myself clear. By now I thought you'd know not to mess with me Jennifer. I can make you wish you were dead."
"Oh, so can I Matt. And I will… now take your seat."
Matt sat on the ground lying back on the carpet "I don't want to go to my seat, so I'll stay right here and I might move after class."
"You wont be." She corrected "You will be staying here for an extra few minuets sorting a few things out with me."
Joe hid his face behind his textbook trying to prevent being noticed.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Joe rushed out the classroom not even spearing a second glance.
The room was practically empty, besides the fact Matt was still lying across the floor and Miss. Bender was gathering her files and papers together. Matt moved slightly into a sitting position seated on the edge of the front platform.
It was stirring it Matt's mind whether he would get a detention, a suspension or an expulsion. Oh well, nothing I haven't been threatened with before. Can't she just hurry up so I can leave?
The room was fairly dim, not to mention quiet. It was very different when Matt decided to keep his trap shut. Miss. Bender finished stacking her paper's together jumping down off the edge and pulling up a chair in front of Matt "I want to try and talk to you."
"Hm." Matt studied the Jennifer carefully "You want to try and talk to me?"
She nodded. "Why do you find it so hard to listen in class? Am I going to fast? Do you not like the homework? What ever it is, I will do my best to help you with it."
Matt mused laughing "I don't care what you will and wont change. A second ago I"
She leaned forward running her fingertips along Matt's leg "I'm sorry I yelled at you. I just love hearing you yell and bitch. I love how you speak. When you told my husband you were having an affair with me, I cried cause, in some way I wanted it to be true… but it wasn't."
"Maybe I have something wedged really far in my brain at the moment." Matt's eyes widened and he became more careful with his words. He tried further more not to attract anymore attention.
Jennifer grabbed his hand and continued, "Is there a way I can have you and make you mine?"
"No!" Matt yelled surprisingly. He began to slightly laugh as though she was speaking another language. "What are you talking about? Listen to what you are saying!"
"I am." She said calmly. "Im listening to every word. You don't understand, in every teacher meeting we have I am the only one who is willing to stick up for you!"
Matt froze almost solid. What? Im dreaming. This is a terrible joke. I hate when people play jokes on me. It's only funny when they are fooled, not me.
"Yes. Me. I stick up for you. They talk about you being expelled but I told them what a great student you really were." She closed her eyes and shrugged "But I don't think they believe it anymore."
The blonde sat cold, feeling her warm hands trail his hip. His eyes puzzled further "Leave me out of your strange tricks." He pulled away snarling in her face walking over to his desk at a fairly average pace. He ordered his books neatly scooping them into his arms. Matt turned and jumped to see his teacher.
She paced forward and with each step she took forward, Matt took one step back. "I know, you're probably thinking… she's lost it. Lost the plot and everything else jammed in her head" She laughed in her throat grinning mercifully. "But im not joking. Im not like you Matt, and… I think that's why I seem to… love you."
"What! No, no, no, no" he grinned in an attempt to make the conversation more pleasurable. "You didn't just say that! I know you're toying with my head. And I don't think love describes how I feel for you, not to be rude or anything." His mind wondered, a sudden voice yelling in his face and a crying woman burying her face in her hands on the floor. He regained concentration and continued slowly pacing back. "Look, there's this girl in my grade. I've known her for… a long, long time. And I love her. So if you could just." His eyes shifted starting with an aggravated tone "Let me go, I have assembly."
Jennifer stopped pacing towards him throwing her arms down by her side. She was slightly confused why the blonde was avoiding her like this. "This girl… what's her name?"
There was an awkward silence completing the room for a minor second. Matt replied confidently without hesitation. "Sora! You know Sora Takenouchi? Beautiful reddish hair hangs about shoulder length. Stunning crimson red eyes. Do you know her?"
"Yes. I do. She is a very pretty girl, and I see why you like her. But maybe its what I see in you she likes too." She smiled in the corner of her mouth.
Jennifer paced forward again backing Matt into a corner. "If I asked Sora whether you tasted good or not, would she be able to answer me? Or is that something that I'd have to find out myself?"
"Look. You are really starting to creep me out, im so scared at the moment. And besides that's my business, not yours."
Jennifer grabbed his collar pulling Matt against her body "Will I ever get this through to you?" She gazed into his eyes for a quiet second and slowly but surely leaned forward forcing her tongue past his lips.
A continuous rush of shock ran through Matt's chest. He froze for a moment and suddenly pulled away. "You sick freak! I told you im already with someone!" his fists tightened on his hair pulling vastly. It was strange to feel the way Matt did at that moment. His heart was shaking, and even more so was he. A combination of shock, horrified and scared symbolized him at the moment and darted out the door looking back quickly to notice Miss. Bender laughing, in the big rush and stumble he made through the door he left behind his books.
The corridor was practically empty, but Matt still had one thought running through his mind. She kissed me. She kissed me! That cow! Matt felt sick from the reflection. She made me late! She kissed me! How dare she! By each passing second, Matt was thinking of more and more reasons to punish her in his own way.
A brunet pulled up in front of him grinning cheerily "Hey Matt! Where were you? I looked all over for you, and assembly has started already."
Matt grunted, "I know." He finally regained his breath relieved to see his friend beside him "It's good its only a year assembly, if it was a school assembly…" he puffed up his cheeks and sighed.
"It makes me all so happy to know you are all well. So, lets start off by me asking, is everyone prepared for the HSC exams coming up?" parts of the audience moaned, some whined. The woman standing before the students was around her mid-thirties and otherwise known as Miss. Geknotama. She had thick smooth black hair and gentle brown eyes, wearing a small black skirt and tight tank top (Also black). "I have really missed you guys these last few days! So please tell me where's my two missing students."
A hand rose from the crowd "Joe." Her direction turned to the blue haired boy. "Do you know where Matt and Taichi are at this time?"
"Right here!" Matt panted shoving Tai through the door. "I had a little hold up, and Tai was waiting for me as all good friends do." All eyes were set on Matt and Taichi. He tried smiling only realizing they weren't exactly stares. It was more of a horrified appeal. Sora hid her face in her hands and laughed.
Taichi had accidentally tucked his shirt into his underwear, but if that wasn't enough he had his underwear pulled up higher then his pants. He didn't seem to mind asking innocently "What?" he looked down trying not to blush.
Matt leaned closer whispering in song "Remember it could always be worse." After saying this he joined half the grade laughing at the brunet.
"Hey! I like my shirt tucked! And I like my underwear higher then my bellybutton." Hell that sounds weird! Aw. They're all laughing at me. Im so stupid! Stupid Tai, Stupid! He began sweating. Think of something to make them shutup! Common, think like Matt. He leaned in closer to Matt whispering "Help me out here. Make me do something to shut them up."
The blonde grinned covering his hands over his mouth cupping Taichi's ear. He finished talking, stepping through the crowd taking a seat near the back beside Sora. "If I were you, just look at the ground."
Sora raised an eyebrow and smiled "Ok, I trust you. Believe it if you want." Sora dropped her head looking over at Matt; the thought suddenly struck her "You didn't tell him to do something bad did you."
Matt's grin widened "I said improvise with visual abuse." His innocence easily satisfied Sora.
"I crown myself king of Moonies!" Taichi bellowed.
"That's not visual abuse! That's torture!" Sora covered her eyes even though she had her head dropped to the ground. How did I know it was going to be something like that? King of Moonies… that is the scariest thing ever. "Matt. Why did he have to do king of Moonies?"
The blonde laughed. He didn't exactly know what to say, Taichi had really outdone himself. A student vomited another fainted and it wasn't because it was appealing.
"Isn't that a hunk of arse of what!" Mimi quickly jumped in, interrupting.
Matt lowered his eyebrows "No Mimi, that hunk of arse will be taking up two seats. One for each cheek! No wonder his pants were up so high, his underwear was probably wedged in his arse crack like a sumo!"
The year twelve coordinator clapped her hands calling all to attention "Taichi! Go sit outside, you can't be apart of this assembly with appalling behaviour like that. Please calm down! All is settled." She screamed louder "Quiet!" all silenced. "Good. Now that was most distracting I understand, but you are all a very mature audience. Thankyou."
She took a sheet of paper from her folder skimming through it quickly. "Now, year twelve formal is in three weeks." Students began clapping and cheering others bickered among themselves. "Are we all excited about that? Yes, yes I see. Well that was some of the news. Ok, also coming up we have decided we are opening a creative writing class for those of you with writing talent."
Matt reached for his books snapping his fingers. Sora also noticed they were missing whispering, "Where's all your stuff?"
"I left it in the drama room." He slipped off topic "I hope Tai doesn't get into trouble."
Sora tried not to make so much noise whispering just enough for Matt to hear "Maybe we should ask to leave early and take Taichi with us." It wasn't really a bad idea. Matt nodded, Sora opened one of her books neatly taring out a blank page. Her writing could easily be mistaken for an adults and the signature at the bottom was illegible.
"Well done. I think we should risk it." Matt snatched the paper from her hands stepping passing all the students to meet the teacher. "We have to get going as you can see on the note." It read 'Please excuse Matt, Sora and Taichi from school early, as we are leaving for a weekend holiday. Signed M. Ishida'
She nodded signing in a green biro "Yes, sure. Have a nice holiday. Where are you going?"
Sora answered, "The beach, down at Kinitama." The teacher was practically jealous resuming her attention to the rest of the grade.
"Taichi's just outside, tell him he's excused until Monday."
Tai's eyes widened studying Sora and Matt leaving the hall "What! Where are you guy's going?"
Sora clenched his wrist dragging Tai along "We're going to Matt's house. I forged a note, to get you out of trouble." Taichi smiled, dancing about Matt and thanking Sora repetitively. He hugged them both darting up the stairs.
"You guy's really are bad… in many, many ways." Taichi chewed a fist headed for his locker.
"Holidays!" Taichi clicked his finger banging his head forward. "I can make a sand castle! Even more it will be the perfect opportunity to give you your dare Matt." his grin expanded, "All I need now is the perfect idea."
Matt seemed everything but focused, like he had just committed a crime or something. I'll tell Sora… no, no. Um… no matter how I put it, it will seem I was in the wrong! He bit his lip. Maybe I just wont tell her, she won't exactly find out… Taichi! "Hey Tai. You gotta make me a promise."
He hummed and nodded repetitively gazing over at Matt "Yeah, what is it?"
"You have to sware on your life. Promise me, you wont tell my dad, or your dad, or Sora's dad about that incident at school today." Matt waited for a reply. Sora's eyes widened to Taichi's dead silence. "Well?"
A slight mumble groaned sheepishly in his throat. "No, I wont tell anyone. I sware it!" he folded his arm across his chest.
The three jumped back, Matt ran forward dropping his bag "We aren't late! Told you I could be on time."
Malcolm nodded patting him on the back "Well done Matt. As I said the second you three got here is the second we leave, so quickly throw your bags inside and get in!" two more bags were thrown into the boot of the car. He lifted his hand to Taichi's and gently hugged Sora "How are you guys?" they both replied 'can't complain' or 'pretty good'.
Sora's father, Vincent slammed closed his door scooping up Sora "Hey sweet pea." He kissed her cheek "How was your day?"
She laughed as he placed her gently back on the ground "Don't treat me like a baby dad."
"Yeah, yeah! Whatever pumpkin." He turned to Matt and Taichi throwing his arms around the blonde and the brunet "How are you two? Taking care of my Sora?" Matt turned down his eyes dragging out a long 'uh' Taichi grinned and bobbed his head innocently.
They threw their bags through the door beside Sora's. Sora sat at the far left (behind the passenger seat which her dad was seated in) Matt jumped in the centre and Taichi lastly on the right closing the door. "How come you're in the middle Matt?"
"Cause I just happen to be in the middle."
Malcolm closed his door taking his last breath "Ok we are meeting the other's there, and there will be another new boy, so be nice to him!" he especially directed the annoyance in his voice at Matt. "Before I start the car, there are a few rules." Matt burst into laughter quickly collecting himself again. Malcolm continued, "No pushing! No shoving! No hitting, No screaming, no slapping, no poking, no yelling, no vomiting on each other, no producing of deadly gases! No bathroom breaks, No annoying the two adults in the front, no hogging space, no tormenting the only girl in the car, no jokes that have absolutely no meaning, no swearing." He sighed taking quick breaths.
"Is that all?" Matt laughed.
The blonde pinched Taichi's arm "Ouch! That hurt!"
Malcolm glared at Matt "What, you said nothing about pinching." Matt protested naively. Malcolm turned slapping Matt's leg "Ouch! You disobeyed rule three! Penalty on dad! I call for a new driver!"
The car had finally started now pulling out the driveway speeding away from the house preparing for the longest arduous journey anyone could not dare to wish for. Considering Matt was in the middle did not help. Even an angel would rip of its wings and beat him to death.
Wow, that was so random! Even an angel would rip of its wings and beat him to death. (My mum says that to me all the time) Im sad people! Everyone thinks im stupid! Ok it is kinda true but please acknowledge IM STILL A LITTLE GIRL! (lol that sounds so stupid but hey whenever you tell the truth doesn't it sound crazy?) Please review and tell me what you thought of it.
I always hated long car trips, they were so boring and I would always be the one who mum would be turning to smack every five minuets! Cause my damn brother would torment me. Hey it's not my fault, the chewing gum just so happened to get stuck in his hair! Well I have a heap of good ideas for the next chap. So REVIEW PEOPLE if you have a really, really funny idea for me, a car trip that you haven't forgotten send it in a review and I'll most likely use it. Look out for chapter six 'Car trouble'
Miss. D. says goodbye and thanks you for your cooperation. :D (And for you people that wonder why I just don't change my pen name to Miss. D. it's because it's taken so call me Miss. D. please:D I like it, has a nice ring to it.
