I settled in and leaned my chair on it's back legs. "Snap. Snap. Snap." My chair dropped to the ground and I turned towards the noise. "Snap." The girl dressed in black was intent on biting her nails. Loudly. I raised one eyebrow and gave her a look. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed Bender widen his. By now, everyone was staring at her. She raised her head and noticed us. She shot a death glare right back at our surprised faces and returned to her hand. "Snap."
"You keep eating your hand and you're not gonna be hungry for lunch." Said Bender. The girl focused her glare and spat the bit of chewed nail. It went a remarkably long distance, though still came nowhere close to our desk "I've seen you before, you know."
I saw Dick poke his head out of his office. "Doesn't he have anything better to do?" I gestured towards his office.
"I know you haven't been here long, Sweets, but I thought you would have figured out that man has no life."
"Who am I? Who are you? Who are you?" The dweeb had his pen in his mouth and was talking to himself. I watched in confusion. "I am a walrus."
"So does that make me a lone wolf?" I gave a howl.
He saw us watching him and took the pen out of his mouth, embarrassed. Soon both boys began removing their coats. Bender saw the nerd doing this and stared him down. I decided to join the staring match. The kid pulled his jacket back on and rubbed his hands, pretending to be cold. Bender finishes with his coat, but we both continue glaring at him. "It's the shits, huh." He forced out an uncomfortable laugh.
Bender crushes his paper into a ball an tosses it over the heads of the jock and princess and into a waste paper basket.
"Score!" I yell pumping my fists in the air. The occupants of the desk ahead ignore us. Bender gave a laugh and smiled at me. My stomach fluttered and I thought about hot he was. What are you thinking? You just met this guy, you don't even know his first name. I quickly look away, blushing and started drumming on the table to distract myself.
He quickly recognized the beat and began miming an air guitar and 'singing' along to Sunshine of Your Love. "Nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah." Funny, he didn't strike me as someone who would listen to Cream. The Princess rolled her eyes. "I can't believe this is really happening to me."
"Well I guess you're just gonna hafta buck it up, Buttercup." My voice dripped with sarcasm. Once again, the populars pretended I didn't exist. I started thinking about Bender again, and stumbled upon an idea. I took my piece of paper and wrote on it before sliding it across the table.
what's your name
He scanned my note, then began to write back, sliding the paper across the desk when he had finished.
John. what about you
Catrina. what are you here for
I pulled the fire alarm on tuesday. how did you end up stuck in here, Beautiful
I pretended I didn't see the end of the last note. The butterflies in my stomach, however, were not on board with the plan. I sent the sheet back. As for how I got here? I spray painted the school. I thought I did a damn fine job, too. It was a stencil of a young girl holding an atomic bomb. I wrote 'THE AMERICAN PEACEMAKER' in red above my depiction.
I improved the paint job on the back wall of the school. I think I should be thanked for a job well done not punished. it looks better now. P.S. thanks for the alarm, I never would have survived an hour of english
You're the one who did the graffiti? that must have taken forever, it actually looks good! watch this.
I looked at John and he winked. I felt my stomach twist a bit. You just met. Why are you acting like this? "Oh shit! What're we s'posed to do if we hafta take a piss?" I couldn't wait to see where this was going.
Queenie looked disgusted. "Please."
Bender continued, "If you gotta go, you gotta go." he unzipped his fly. Instantly four pairs of eyes focused on him while I struggled to contain my laughter.
Red's eyes were as big as saucers as her disgust was brought to a whole new level. "Oh my God!"
Sporto turned around. "Hey, you're not urinating in here, man!
He leaned against the desk. "Don't talk! Don't talk! It makes it crawl back up." The nerd tries to look under the desk. Perv.
"Whip it out, and you're dead before the first drop hit's the floor!"
John gasped mockingly. "You're pretty sexy when you get angry." I gave a little growl. Bender looked at me a moment, then turned to Johnson. "Hey, homeboy," Johnson points at himself with a pen. "Why don't you go close that door, and we'll get the prom queen and the rogue impregnated." Red gives him shoots him a glare. I take a different approach.
I grabbed his neck and pulled myself onto his lap. He couldn't hide the surprise on his face. I positioned myself so I was pressed against his chest, and couldn't help but notice how solid his chest was. Damn, I bet he's hot. I wrapped my arms around the back of his neck, while his automatically circled my waist. I could feel his heart beat faster. At this point I could feel everyone's eyes boring into me. I ran my hand through his hair and I swear he shivered. I whispered in his ear, "So you want some action?" He swallowed, our faces were inches away. His gaze flickered to my lips. I began to lean in, then, "Too bad!" I hopped off his lap.
Bender was shocked. Everybody's mouth hung open. "What? I was just having a bit of fun."
John regained his composure. "I still stand by my offer."
I rolled my eyes. "Offer? Please, you just wanted to piss Queenie off to get a reaction, and you got one! Probably not what you were expecting."
"Whatever."
