At the End of the Day
French was cancelled and school ended early due to the science block being blown up. Vyvyan was devastated about not being able to show off his dissection skills with a scalpel. He was sacked. His class shouted and roared at the principal who had to climb onto his desk, as he didn't want to touch the floor and get ripped to pieces. They wanted their "Uber-Kickass" teacher to stay, as they quoted. Vyvyan laughed and gave a affectionate reply "See ya you snot-nosed brats!" he waved and smirked. They waved back and all took a deep breath "Goodbye you bastard!" he turned and laughed. Ben and Ben and Scott and Scott ran up to him and gave him back S.P.G who was very reluctant to go back into Vyvyan's pocket.
He had gotten used to the million upon millions of step and lugged his bag up them all in under half-an-hour. His class watched from their classroom balcony and waved every time Vyvyan turned around, and he waved too.
He walked out of the school gates and looked up at the B.S.L flag waving mightily in the wind. He held up his hand and instead of saluting, he gave the "V" gesture and snickered as he trumped over the hill and back to his house.
"So… Vyvyan." Rik said, barely stifling his humorous snorts "You enjoyed your day at work?" He was obviously in hysterics about Vyvyan's condition. His, bloody bandaged head, the pieces of black in his skull, the blood all over the side of his face, his bloody knee and his jacket and jeans being covered in soot. He had rubbed his face on an old pedestrian on his way back form the school.
Vyvyan turned to him "Shut up, you girl." And threw his stuff under the stairs.
"Uh… You can't sit down like that you know. You have enough to pay for!" Rik protested as Vyvyan began to sat on the sofa. He stopped and stomped off out the back door. Rik shuffled up to the window to see where he was going but was knocked back as Vyvyan came back through the door, a few seconds later, completely clean.
"How did you do that?" Rik asked in shock.
"I dunno. I just did." Came his reply and he proceeded to slump himself on the sofa. Neil came down from the stairs.
"Hello, Vyvyan. I didn't know you were going to be back so soon."
"Yeah… Uh… Early school day." He tried to say a smart reply.
Mike came through the back door "Back so soon, Vyv?" Mike asked, lighting a cigar and sitting down on the sofa as well.
In the background, Rik was yelling at Neil about being a boring bastard and not doing any work with cleaning or cooking, his usual rant.
Vyvyan sighed "Yes. Early school day!"
"Alright, alright, calm down."
"And… I got some news you probably ain't gonna like." Vyvyan added.
"Oh, you're not pregnant again?" Rik shouted sitting down as well, leaving the rickety chair to Neil he sat reluctantly.
"Nah, not as bad as that."
"You ate your own finger again?" Neil asked.
Everyone looked at him strangely "Neil… That never happened." Mike said.
"Well it seemed the kind of thing someone like Vyvyan would do."
"I see your point." Rik agreed.
"Shut up!" Vyvyan shouted "Look, I got fired!"
Mike stood up, startled and Neil fell backwards on his chair, mostly because Rik pulled the front of the chair up anyway.
"Why?" Mike questioned, the cigar falling out of his mouth "It wasn't easy negotiating that deal with that school, you know, Vyv! You have to pay for the demolished wall!"
"I know! I know! Keep yer knickers on!" Vyvyan hushed them all "I got my salary today anyway! It's enough to pay for asshole's wall and as a little extra for me."
Rik snorted "For you? Ha! You don't deserve nothing!"
Vyvyan frowned and grabbed the cigar from the floor and shoved it into Rik's eye. While he flailed about and ran up the stairs to the bathroom, Neil took his place on the chair "So, how'd your job go, anyway?" he asked.
"At the end of the day, Neil… It was alright." Vyvyan smiled while Rik's screams rang out behind him.
Aww! nice ending! I know I could've done better but im lazy --"
