Chapter 6: Detention
Jake is in detention and the teacher to watch detention isn't there yet. His friend Drew Matthews walks into the room. Jake looks at him and says "Are you lost Drew?". "No." Drew replied. "Then, what are you doing in detention?" Jake asked. "I mouthed off to a teacher." Drew replied feeling proud of himself because he got his first detention. "You're a bad man Drew." Jake replied laughing. "Is it over now?" Drew asked. "You still have another two hours." Jake told him. "Oh man." Drew answered. Vinny walks into the detention room. "I'm filling in Mrs.Decker this week." Vinny told them. "Oh hey Jake." Vinny said as he saw Jake in the room. "Hey Mr.DiMiranda." Jake replied. "That's the teacher that gave you detention today and tomorrow?" Drew asked. "That's him." Jake responded. "It isn't that bad guys." just as Vinny said that Sarah walked into the room. "What the hell areyou doing here?" Vinny and Sarah asked each other at the same time. "I'm covering for Mrs.Decker this week." Vinny answered. "I was five minutes late for class and my teacher gave me detention for being late for the third time this week." Sarah told him. "This is better than I thought." Jake said trying not to laugh. "What do you mean by that?" Drew asked him. "Just watch." Jake told him calmly. "So, you're a teacher now." Sarah asked Vinny. "No, I just go from school to school to cover detention." Vinny answered sarcastically. "So, that means your not going to be here tomorrow?" Jake asked. "I was being sarcastic." Vinny replied. "Hey Jake, what are you doing here?" Sarah asked. "Mr.DiMiranda over there gave me detention for today and tomorrow." Jake replied. "For what?" Sarah asked. "I called him Vinny." Jake responded. "And he gave you detention for two days because of that?" Sarah asked shocked. "I told him not to call me Vinny and he did four times." Vinny said trying to defend himself. "Isn't that your name?" Sarah asked. "When we're not in school. In school it's Mr.DiMiranda." Vinny replied. "I think things are about to pick up." Jake told Drew. "I'm not calling you Mr.DiMiranda in school." Sarah told him. "It's either you do or you get detention." Vinny told her. "Detention doesn't scare me. I've been here so many times before you got here." Sarah told him laughing. "It's true." Jake told him. "I don't care. I've been in detention more times in junior high and high school then you two combined." Vinny told them. "Yeah right." Sarahreplied. "Whatever. I don't have to prove anything to you two." Vinny told them. "So, I heard that you and the Shenks are good friends." Sarah said. "Is that true Vinny?" Jake asked. "What's it to you?" Vinny asked. "We hate them." Jake said. "No, you guys hate Mrs. Shenk." Vinny said. "Mr. Shenk and Dylan are cool." Jake told him. "You're friends with the woman who wants my family to leave the neighborhood." Sarah told him annoyed. "Who I become friends with is none of your business." Vinny told them. "Lorraine is our sister." Sarah replied. "That doesn't make it your business." Vinny told her. "Actually it does dude." Jake told him. "What is this a double team attack on me?" Vinny asked. "Maybe." Sarah said. The bell rang and detention is over. "Jake I'll see you tomorrow." Vinny said as Jake was leaving. "See ya tomorrow Vinny." Jake said as he was leaving. Vinny shook his head and packed up his stuff and left.
