Complicated
Chapter Two:
A few more minutes into Science class, an African American girl with her hair up in a black leather skirt and a yellow and black striped shirt burst into the classroom. "Ms. Bumble, I'm happy you finally decided to join us. Please tell us why you are so tardy this morning." Mrs. Robinson lectured. "My alarm clock didn't go off." the girl said. Mrs. Robinson sighed. "Just get in your seat Karen." she said, tiredly.
'Karen' walked up to Kori and took a seat next to her. "What really got you late?" Rachel whispered to her. "My boyfriend." she whispered back. "You guys are still dating?" She asked. "Rach, what's wrong with you? We've only dated for about 1 day." Karen replied. "It just seems like a lot longer... And by the way, this is Kori. She's new." Rachel whispered, finally bringing Kori into the conversation.
"Hi. My name is Karen but my friends call me Bee." She greeted. "Hi." was all Kori said. She turned back to the front of the room because she knew if she kept whispering, she was bound to get caught.
After Science, Kori had math. "Well, I have to go to my English class. This is good-bye until 3rd period. Remember, Karen and two other guys you haven't met yet are going to be in your class next. After that, you've met all of us. Richard is in Band right now. I wish you luck on your Math teacher because he's mean. Yes this one is one of the worst. Never go to the Principle's office, by the way. He's the meanest person in this whole school." she said, and went off to her next class.
"Okay, Kori. I think Richard likes you." Bee said to her, shortly after Rachel left. "Please. We just met." Kori replied. "Come on, girl. He kept on staring at you. I saw him. He thinks your hot." she yelled. "Well I don't like him." Kori started. "And I doubt I ever will!" But, oh, how wrong she was when she said that.
"Okay, fine. You win. But he's a player in this school. All the girls are after hi-" she couldn't finish, because a crowd of guys started hitting on Kori. Roy was one of them. "Hey, Kori. Maybe you should come to my house tonight and we could have some fun..." one of them said. Kori kicked him in the crotch. "Oooh... Looks like we got a fighsty one on our hands. I like that." another said. Kori slapped him.
Another pinched her butt and said, "Come on baby, lets get out of this place and go do something alone..." Kori grabbed him by the shirt and said, "You ever EVER touch me again, and you'll be living in the deepest hole ever dug. Do you HEAR me? Do you?" The guy nodded and ran off. Another grabbed her arm, but before he could say anything, Kori grabbed his arm and threw him to the other side of the hallway. As she turned around, a kid punched her in the face and knocked her out.
This was the last Bee was going to see of her new friend getting tortured by all these guys. She punched the daylights out of the kid who knocked Kori out. Then the bell rang and all the guys rushed to get to their next class. Bee bent down next to Kori. "Kori... Wake up. Wake up, Kori. Wakey wakey, eggs and baccey." she said, slightly slapping her. "KORI WAKE UP!" she yelled into her ear. Kori burst up into a sitting position.
"Where are all the guys?" she asked
"They all left. You're late for math class." she replied. "NO!" Kori yelled and got up. "Where's Math?" she asked. "Come on, Kor. I'll show you." They ran down the hall and burst into math class. Luckily, the teacher was also late.
Bee sat next to a African American guy with gray eyes and a shaven head. "Hey Vic." she said. "Hello Bee. Who's this?" he asked. Before anybody could say anything, A kid with died green hair, forest green eyes, and skin that was for some reason a pale green, ran up to Kori and said, "Hello, are you single? How are you? Where do you come from? Would you like to go out?" Kori just slapped him. "That's Kori. Garfield, please get off of her. She's already gotten tortured by tons of guys this morning. You can say perverted stuff to her at lunch when no teachers are around." and just as Bee finished her sentence, a tall man walked into the class.
"Hello class," he said.
"Good Morning Mr. Rancid"(Yes I brought Johnny Rancid into the story)the class said together.
After Math class was Social Studies. "Well, I have to go to English now. Your next teacher is Ms. Appleren. She's nice but not as nice as Mrs. Robinson. You talk during class and she'll catch you." Karen warned and went off to her next class. Then Rachel walked up to her.
"Hey, Kori. How was class with Mr. Rancid?" Rachel asked. "Fine... I guess. Why is Garfield perverted?" Kori asked. Rachel almost laughed. ALMOST. "He's always that way. So, where do you come from?" she said. "Well, I come from a very small town called Tamaran. I'll bet you've never heard of it. That's how small it is. It's less like a town and more like a nieborhood." Kori again answered her question. "Oh. So why'd you have to come here?" Rachel seemed to be full of questions. "Oh, right. You see, my parents died in a car accident, so I live with my uncle and my sister, Komi. Komi is just about as nice as Mr. Rancid only meaner. My uncle's name is Galfore. He got a job promotion and we had to move so he was closer to work... so, that's basically all of my life." Kori explained. "I'm sorry about your parents." Rachel said.
"Well, it doesn't bug me too much. I was only a little bungorf... In Tamaran, that means baby." she replied. "Oh... How old was Komi?" she asked. "About five." Kori again answered her question.
They kept talking and asking questions about each other until they reached their S. S. class. Kori took a seat in between Richard and Rachel. Garfield sat on the other side of Rachel and Victor by Richard. Then about 2 minutes before the bell rang, Ms. Appleren entered the classroom.
She was a chubby teacher with red curly hair and rosy cheeks. She had hazel eyes, and she looked really nice.
"Hello class." she said. "Today we will be studying the Native Americans." Everybody sighed. After Social Studies, they had Lunch. They all sat at their own table. "Okay, So Kor. Have you met Kathren yet?" Bee asked. "Who?" Kori had no idea who Kathren was. "Well she's about to meet her, because here she comes!" Garfield yelled and ducked under the table. "Hello Richy-poo. I missed you soooooooooooooooooooooo much. I wish that damn principle would put us in one of the same classes." Kathren said. Richard looked toward Rachel as if saying 'Thank-you God for letting Rachel be friends with Professor Wilson!' "Kathren... please... Go away." Richard said, trying with all his heart not to be that mean to her.
"Oh, but Richy-poo, you haven't seen me all day. I can't believe how much you must have missed me. And who's this ugly new girl all the guys are talking about?" she asked. Everybody looked at Kori. "Her! How would anybody like her?" she said, pointing an accusing finger at Kori. "Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful." Kori said. "iSure/i you are." Kathren sneered. "Oh, you agree?" Kori exclaimed, pretending to be a hyper-active girly-girl. "Well, thanks, 'cause I know it's true. So why don't you buzz off and do everybody a favor." Kori stopped using her girly voice for the last part. Everybody started laughing and pointing at Kathren.
"Oh! You will pay for that, you dirty little whore!" Kathren yelled and ran off. Everyone gave Kori a nice pat on the back. 'God... She's not only hot but she's got some creative comebacks on her, too... Okay, maybe not creative but she's definitely got some spice in her.' Richard admired.
Kori smiled as everybody gave her comments and stuff... Except Bee who was sitting next to Richard. She grabbed him by the arm and took him away from the crowd around Kori. "Richard, I know you like Kori." she said. "W-what are you talking about?" Richard asked, trying not to sound shocked. "Admit it Lover-boy. You like her." Bee accused. "No I don't." Richard said, sweating like a pig. "Aha! You're stuttering and you're sweating! You love her, Richard. I know it for sure now." she yelled.
"Okay, fine. I like Kori." he said. "Are you happy?" "Yes. Yes I am. And don't go admitting it to her face, just yet. We gotta get you two to spend some time together after school. Fortunately, it's Friday. You guys are going to spend today at Kori's house. Rachel tells me she lives with her uncle and her older sister. You guys should be fine. Rachel also tells me that her uncle is a scientist and is always working in the basement. Komi, her older sister, had a job and is always at work. You two will be all alone. If you're afraid of hormones, I could always send Rachel and Garfield with you guys, too." Bee said.
"Bee, you really have to learn how to mind your own business." Richard said. "I know. Now when Kori really meets you, she will automatically fall in love with you... I mean, you're you." "Thank-you." Richard said before she could go on. "Okay, yeah, shut-up. We don't have much time because the bell that ends lunch will go off in 10 minutes and I have a really long plan. So whenever I break her down and she admits she's in love with you on Monday, you two are going to be dating by Tuesday. Got it?" Bee explained. Richard nodded.
"Okay... You did see her on your bus, right?" she asked. Richard nodded again. "Okay, well, you can sit with her... and by the way, watch out for Roy. He wants her bad." she said.
