Oh my gosh.
I have English Class with Trey Anderson.
I'm excited but nervous.
I hope I don't embarrass myself.
I arrived pretty early to class so I just took a seat near the front. Why? Everyone wants the back seats because that's where the teacher can't see you. Tolerable students sit near the front and annoying ones sit in the back. Basic knowledge.
Slowly, everyone came in, dreading of the torture that's about to come. I am too but I'm pretty good in English class. Passed last year with a B. After the bell rang, everyone was in their seats but the teacher wasn't here yet. I shrugged and just started texting the girls in our group chat.
Me : Omg the teacher isn't here yet
Cassidy : Nice. My teacher came and he's an old man. He started talking about his life story or whatever
Me : That sucks for you
Violet : I can't take this class anymore. The teacher is already teaching us something and I don't understand
Me : I will help you later, Vi
Cassidy : I will probably need help later too
Val : Everyone, stop texting in class
Me : The teacher isn't here yet so it's fine
Cassidy : THIS TEACHER IS BORING! I WILL HAPPILY TEXT IN CLASS!
Violet : I'm too cool for school
Me : This is why I have as your emoji
Violet : SHOOT! IM GONNA GET CAUGHT! LATER!
Cassidy : About to get caught too. Peace out Girl scouts.
Val : This is why we don't text in class
I turned off my phone as they ended the conversation. It's boring without them texting in the chat.
Just then the teacher finally appeared. She quietly opened the door and strolled into the room. Her purple dress fluttering a bit because it was a bit too short. She wore black leggings underneath the dress and grey heel boots. She would be the same height as us if it wasn't for the boots. She wore a black cardigan to cover her arms and shoulders and had on a few gold rings to compliment the outfit, her wedding ring included.
"Hello class. I'm Mrs. Cox. I'm gonna be the new teacher. All of you guys are smart students so I don't need to go over the rules. Annoy me, you get a detention. Disrespect me and you get a detention. Do something stupid and you get a detention. Don't even try anything. I am giving you guys 3 days to work on a presentation about a country of your choice. I have picked your partners so I will put the paper on the board."
She announced as she stuck a piece of paper on the white board. She then went to her desk and started working on her computer. Everyone came crowding towards the front, wanting to see who their partner is. A lot of people cheered that their partner is a friend or someone tolerable. A few groaned at the disaster they have to call partner.
I mentally groaned at who my partner will be. I don't even like a lot of people in this class. Before I got up to look at the list, someone approached me.
"Hey so the teacher kinda put us together for this project and I kinda wasn't paying attention to what she was saying so can you explain what we're going to do?"
He nervously explained to me.
Oh. My. Gosh.
I can't believe this.
My partner is Jerry Martinez.
Aka the guy my friend is crushing on.
