Chapter 5: My Plan Kills Jeb.
Max P.O.V
Okay, so when the nurse came she nearly fainted. I know right. She is a nurse. If she nearly faints at this then what does she do all day? Anyway she sent Iggy and Fang back to get the wheelchair and it was right about then that I decided I hated her. I did NOT need a wheelchair. I had walked all the way to school.
I took everybody - Gazzy, Nudge, Angel, Fang, Iggy and the nurse - nearly twenty mintues to actually get me to sit in it. And it was only because Nudge got fed up and basically tackled me onto it. Not so fun when ypu are covered in bruises. But I couldn't tell her that. I saw Angel wince from the corner of my eye. She knew about my bruises. The nurse tried to make everyone go to class but no one did. Eventually she just gave up. Stupid nurse who can't handel swelling.
What sucked most about using the chair was that I wasn't aloud to even push it myself. The nurse made Fang push me. I guess it could have been worse. She could have been pushing me, But it made me look weak!And if there's one thing I know, it's that makeing me look weak is not a good idea. Unless you have the power to kill me. Then I'll just put up with it.
I glared at the nurse the whole way to the sick bay. She flinched whenever she looked in my direction. After itting there bored out of my mind for ten minutes in the sick bay I asked the question that was on everybodies mind. "So what's up with my ankle. You know, other than the swelling?" She gave me a look of pitty and I had to bite my tounge to keep from swearing at her. And I was trying not to swear around Angel anymore. Not a good example for me to set for her.
"Well honey" Honey!? "It's not broken. But it is badly twisted. I have a brace around here somewhere that you can use, you'll need it for a week (A/N: that's guess. Does anybody know how long she'd actually need one for?) and I'll give you some cruches to use." My mouth popped open. And I'm guessing it was rather obvious because everyone turned to face me, even the nurse paused from looking for the brace to look at me, then quickly turned away when I glared. This is going to be one sucky week. Especially when Jeb finds out. "Are you going to tell my parents?" The word parents felt like acid on my tongue. As far as I was concerned, I had no parents. Jeb was no dad and my own mom had left me. The only parent I'd ever had was Dr. M and she was freaking dead. "I'll leave that to you." She replied. Oh, I get it. She was trying to make me like her better. Well, how is that going for you Blondie. Oh, did I not tell you? She's blonde. not natural blonde, more like; I-dye-my-hair-with-bleach-every-day-when-I-get-home-from-work blonde.
I colapsed (A/N:spelling?) onto my seat at morning break. This stupid brace was making it impossible to walk. And cruches don't help. AT ALL! I swear, I've tripped over them at least eight times this morning. "So. How was your morning?" Screw you Iggy. After I voiced this statment he held his hands up in surrender and laughed at me. I hate that kid sometimes. No. I don't really hate him, I hate this freaking brace, I hate the cruches, I hate the nurse, and I HATE JEB! He was ruining my life.
It was then that Nudge started her usual chatter. But one thing she said caught my attention. "Wait, what did you say?" I asked her. "I was saying we should have a sleepover tonight to celebrate the fact that we don't have school tomorrow! It's a teacher only day! I love those days. Don't you?" As she droned on and on I thought it through in my head. We obviously can't stay the night, but Jeb doesn't know that we don't have school tomorrow. "We can't stay the night but can we come to your house around 8:30 in the morning the next day?" She nodded and wrote her adress on a small piece of paper. Finally, after all these years, Angel and I were finally going to have one day for ourselves.
The next two periods were really boring and a complete waste of the little time I had away from Jeb. So I'm only gonna tell you about what happened at lunch.
I hobbled in through the caffeteria (A/N: spelling?) doors and slowly made my way to my table. As I sat down I looked up to see Nudge about to say something - surprise! - but she glanced over my shoulder, went pale and looked down at her lunch. I looked around seeing the everyone else on this table was doing the same thing. Even Angel. I looked over my shoulder and nearly screamed. There was no one behind me. Instead there was a huge banner on the wall. It said:
Awwww! Maxi Ride got a boo boo! Why don't you go on home to your Daddy? He'll kiss it better!
Then there was a cartoon drawing of a girl with dirty blonde hair - I'm guessing she was me - hugging a taller guy with grayish blonde hair. My 'Dad'. I stood up slowly and walked over to the banner. "Who did this?" No reply. I walked over to the popular people table and climbed ontop of it. How I got up there with this stupid thing on my leg I will never know! They all stopped their meaningless chatter and faced me. All the girls looked like they wanted the guys to throw me out the window. But the guys were looking at me like they wanted me to stripp right then and there. Gross! I kicked one of them in the face with my good leg. Shure it hurt to stand on my bad leg, but I really needed to do that. "I said: Who did this!?" I gestured over to the banner hanging on the wall behind me. The entire caffiteria stopped what they were doing and looked at me. It didn't take as long as last time but I guess they were kind of expecting it.
Everyone looked at Lissa and her crew. I shook my head and tore the banner down. Then I pasted the biggest fake smile I could manage onto my face. "Thanks! I've always wanted something like this. You know, ever since my dad died I've wanted something to remember him by!" I don't know why I said it, I just did. I had no problem pretending that Jeb was dead. To me, he was. Just a really annoying ghost who liked to hurt Angel and I. The entire caffeteria looked guilty and saddened and generally they looked like they wanted to kill Lissa and her crew. That is why I did that!
As I sat back down everyone continued with their useless chattering but the Flock looked at me with their mouths hanging open. "Is your dad really dead?" Nudge asked. "He can't be I saw him!" "Iggy's right. He's not dead. But I was sick off all their crap and I knew that that would make them stop. At least for today." They all nodded like they got it but I knew that every single one of them not includeing Angel was wondering how I could so easily say that my dad was dead. And with a smile on my face. Well they weren't gonna get an answer.
It's not my best peice of writting, but I needed to use up the rest of the school day! Don't judge me. :P
I hope the next chapter will be longer and better but I'm not gonna update until I get 10 more updates. Right now I have 24 so I'm not gonna update until I have 34. Kay? Bye!
