Break later on that day

My English assessment went rather well and I was standing with Ros, Karla and Philip. We were all discussing the test and agreed that it went fine. There was one question that all of us stumbled on but hopefully we'd find out soon enough. That's when we saw someone who none of us recognised so we assumed that he was a new boy. He approached the four of us and tried to make conversation.

"You alright ladies, and Philip? Especially you." He looked at me, attempting to flirt with me.

"Fine thanks. Who are you then new boy?"

"Finn. Got kicked out of all my previous schools and this one was so kind to take me in." He had a cocky attitude that I didn't like from the start so I was probably going to make that clear to him if this continued, "Who are you then?" He was paying particular close attention to me for some reason but I didn't give a shit as the last thing I needed was some cocky little boy trying to look hard.

"Pandora. This is Karla, Ros and you already know Philip." For now, I would put my slightly over-confident tone on to see how the new boy might react, I think he guessed that we were two years above him anyway.

"Oh you're Tyler's kid aren't you? Yea Amy and Siobhan were telling me earlier that you lot are a few years above us so I thought I'd make an impression." I nodded my head as that is how everyone knew that about me anyway. It's just a matter of time before the truth about Miss Mason comes out. You can't keep any sort of secret in this place for too long.

"Right we're off to lesson so do one Finn." I looked at my phone and realised that it was the end of break so we should be getting to lesson soon. Surprisingly, he actually left us alone. Philip said something along the lines of, "Oh another cocky one." and I laughed at his comment as I couldn't have put it better myself.

"Kids like Finn have a habit of taking advantage which is one of the things I need you to understand. Adam are you listening to me?" The head teacher needed to have a word with her new member of staff after some people had criticized the way Adam had done things today at lunch time. She followed Adam into the supply cupboard whilst, unknown to either teacher, Finn was following them like a shadow so he could lock them in the room.

"You know, I could put Rose in contact with some great suppliers. Get better stuff since she's brought some real rubbish." It was Adam's turn to criticize now.

"Well, maybe you could find a more sensitive way of putting it. You really need to understand how important the staff are of this school and they deserve to be treated with respect."

The old friends then continued to discuss Adam's tactics in his new role and his attitude change as well. It was clear that they were old friends as they were talking about the past with smiles on their faces. Rachel admitted that it didn't matter that Adam had a bit more weight on him because he was 'sweet and nice' before Adam also admitted that Rachel had taught him the valuable lesson of good guys coming last.

Things started to get a bit awkward at this point as Rachel realised that Adam had liked her all those years ago. This was when she realised that, for the time being, she was stuck in a room with him after realising that Finn had locked them both in the store cupboard. Countless attempts of trying to open the door later, Adam told Rachel that it was all down to her that he had changed so much before trying to come on to her. Rachel, knew that in every sense, it was wrong because she knew if anything happened between her and Adam, it would affect Rachel's relationship both with Max and Pandora. Luckily, Kim realised that Rachel was in the store cupboard and let them out before Adam could make his move.

Pandora was on her way to Max and Rachel's office to meet with them so she could get a lift. She had been at a revision session and all of her other friends had already gone home. She knocked on the door before her dad asked her to come in. Upon entering, she asked if they could go home together since all of her friends have already gone. Max more than happily agreed to this and asked her to sit down whilst he finished off.

"Where's mum?"

"Last I heard, she was sorting a pupil out. Finn and another pupil have been hurting her."

"I know Finn. He introduced himself to me today. I guessed he was a troublemaker but nowhere near as bad as that."

"Listen," Dad sat down in front of me and looked me in the eye before telling me, "He is trouble and I don't want you going anywhere near him understood?" He put the tone on that he used when he was being harsh with me like on the first day of starting at this school. That must mean that he is the trouble that dad is making him out to be. It's not my fault that he keeps approaching me, it's not like I actually want to speak to him.
