Chapter 5 - Jess's anger
Jess and Leslie were scared to get separated, Leslie more than Jess, because they both had a feeling that Scott and Gary were planning something for Jess and Leslie. They went there separate ways and Jess saw from afar that Leslie entered her classroom unharmed. He was relieved and he entered his own classroom and he saw that he was in the same class as Scott and Gary. They were both making weird looks at him and kept on telling him "Watch your friend, before she disappears again" and they kept on laughing. When the course was over, Jess ran towards Leslie class and waited for her outside there door, but he also realized that Scott and Gary were also waiting. When the class door opened and they started coming out, Jess saw Leslie walking slowly out of the classroom with her books in her hand. When she got near Jess, Scott and Gary ran towards them and pushed them into each other causing Leslie's books to fall from her hands, Jess falling on Leslie and Leslie landing on her back with Jess on top of her. They stayed like that for a while and looking in each others eyes. Both got very pink in the face. They were both brought back to reality when the voice of the principal interrupted them.
"Excuse me for interrupting your moment, but can I please see both you in my office NOW!" said the principal.
Jess and Leslie were both confused on why the principal was that mad at them and what they did wrong. When they reached his office, he told them to sit down and he too sat down on his own chair.
"Kids, I know that you are both entering that age when you start feeling emotions for each...but what you two were trying to do was very irresponsible, you both are definitely to young for that kind and on top of that you were...about to do it in the middle of the hall."said the principal.
"No, sir, you got it all wrong believe me, we were thinking about anything like that sir, honestly" said Leslie with a worried look on her face.
"Ya, it's true sir, we weren't doing anything and we were definitely not trying to do the thing you are thinking about. We just got knocked over by Scoot and Gary." said Jess.
"I hope you are telling the truth Mr. Aarons, because I know that you and those two boys have a problem, but you have no proof to tell me that, so you better be careful, because if I ever find you and Ms. Burke in a position like that again, I will definitely suspend both of you." said the principal with a furious look on his face.
"Even if were...making out?" said Jess slightly blushing and trying not to make eye contact with Leslie.
"You can do anything you like but believe me, I will be keeping a close eye on both of you and Scott and Gary." said the principal. "Now go back to your classes.
Jess and Leslie hurried out of the office with there faces very red. Jess looked at his schedule and saw that he had the same subject as Leslie, so they were both in the same class. They hurried to there classroom and entered it. Jess saw that yet again, he was stuck in the same classroom as Scott and Gary. They were both laughing again and they were saying nasty things to Leslie like "Did you go missing again" and that was really annoying Jess. The bell rang and they left the classroom for lunch. The took their lunches and went to the cafeteria. They sat down face to face and started eating there sandwiches. Jess saw that Scott and Gary were up to something around the trashcan. He tried to find Janice, but she was not in the Cafeteria. When Jess was done eating, he took his garbage and headed towards the trashcan in the middle of the Cafeteria. When Jess turned around to head back to his place after trowing his garbage in the trashcan, Scott and Gary came in front of him.
"What do you guys want?" asked Jess with an annoyed look on his face.
"Nothing" said Scott "Only this"
They both pulled Jess from one arm and threw him on floor which he realized was filled with soap and it he was sliding on it sideways and he was headed straight for the garbage bags that had been filled and were ready to be thrown out. He crashed into them and a couple o fthe bags made whole and garbage fell on him. Jess was wondering how they had managed to get the soap on the floor. He had trouble getting up, because the floor was slippery and he was in pain from being thrown to the ground. He realized that everyone was laughing at him. Leslie came running him. When she came near Scott and Gary, they also took her by her arms and threw her on the floor, causing her to slide all the way to Jess and bang into each other. Jess was very mad. He helped Leslie up and ran towards Scott and Gary. They were both very scared from the angry Jess. Jess started punching Gary.
"Don't you "punch" ever touch "punch" Leslie again" said Jess very angrily.
Then he switched to Scott leaving Gary to fall on the floor crying with pain.
"Because "punch" she is "punch" my "punch" GIRL!" yelled Jess and this time he punched Scott right in the face causing his nose to bleed from his nose. He too fell to the ground and started crying from pain.
"So assholes, how does it feel to be bullied around for a change?" said Jess with his fists still closed.
The principal came running in and saw the disaster of the Cafeteria.
"JESSE AARONS, FOLLOW ME" yelled the principal with a very mad look on his face. "YOU THREE TOO, SCOTT HOAGER, GARY FULCHER AND LESLIE BURKE!"
Jess and Leslie walked from one side of the corridor and Scott and Gary were walking from the other side.
"Hey, you okay Leslie? You hurt anywhere?" asked Jess with a worried look on his face.
"No, it's Ok Jess, I'm fine." said Leslie.
They were both covered in soap and garbage. They both smelled really bad, but didn't care, they both held on too each other tightly. Leslie realized that Jess was shaking a bit. She knew immediately that this was Jess's first fight. When they got to the principals office, the principal wanted to see Scott and Gary first. They walked in and Jess and Leslie sat outside the office door holding hands. Jess was still shaking a bit.
"Calm down Jess, it's over and thank you for standing up for me." said Leslie with her face turning slightly pink. She leaned forward and gave Jess a small on the only part of his cheek that wasn't dirty.
"It's no problem, besides, I have been wanting to do that for five years now and I got to tell you...it feels gooooood!" said Jess and they both started laughing. Their happiness ended when the office door opened. Scott and Gary cam out looking sadder then ever.
"Jess and Leslie!" called the principal. Jess gulped and walked in the office with Leslie still holding his hand hoping that they don't get suspended or worse expelled.
