Chapter 11:
Boring Mr. Pay
Once the bell rang, I was out of there, nearly running into the door.
"Somebody's in a rush" said a familiar husky voice.
"Jake!" I said as I threw myself at him.
"Hi" he said as he kissed me.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well, my class is this way and I bet yours is to so I guess I'm walking you to class" he said as he grabbed my backpack and slung it on his shoulder.
I giggled and followed after him.
"What do you have next?" he asked.
"Government"
"With Mr. Pay? Oh, that sucks, I had him 2nd. He's so boring. He has one of the monotone voices and he reads straight out of the book" he said.
"Ugh. Well, I guess I'll just doodle" I said as we laughed.
"Here's my stop" he said as we stopped in front of a door with a bunch of gears and tiny robots on it.
"Have fun" I said half heartedly.
"Hey, one period left" he said as he kissed me and then went inside.
I walked, half dazed, into government.
"Hey Nessie!!" a couple of people called.
I turned to see Dorothy, Chris, Jack, Hannah and Maddie waving at me. Well, at least I wasn't going to be short on friends.
"Hey guys!" I said as I walked over.
The room was plain with hardly anything on the walls. What few things there were, were black and white. He had the desk aligned in the classic rows. I headed up to Mr. Pay and handed him my schedule.
"Nessie. Good. Here is your Government book, you workbook, your economy book and your fill-in Government dictionary for Chapter Vocabulary. You have to do all 75 words from chapters 1-16 for homework.
! ! ! ! ! !
Why don't take a seat in front of . . . Christopher" he said in the most monotone voice I had heard in my entire life.
I nodded, annoyed about the homework, grabbed the pile of books and headed to my seat. There was no way these would fit in my backpack. I sat in front of Chris and joined in the conversation.
"So Nessie, you going tomorrow?" Dorothy asked ignoring the fact Mr. Pay already started reading.
"I don't know, probably" I said.
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"Well, my sister is a crazy shopaholic and if she says shopping, you better go. Also, my parents are really strict" I said.
"Oh well you could . . . "
"Mrs. Larkin. Detention tomorrow" Mr. Pay said to Dorothy and resumed reading from the book.
She cursed and opened her book.
"A political party is an organization of citizens who wish to influence and control government by getting their members elected to office. Party members share similar ideas about what they want government to do. If a party can put enough of its members into office, that party can have a major effect on the policies of the government. Parties play a key role in government and provide opportunities for citizens to take part in the political process" he read it straight out of the book, line for line, no emotion, no pauses. It was terrible.
I started doodling on my binder.
"Mrs. Cullen. This has nothing to do with the lesson. Detention tomorrow" he said as he continued to read, placing the slip on my desk and placing my binder on his desk.
I stared at the slip. He has got to be kidding me.
"Mrs. Cullen. If you do not read along, you will join me Wednesday morning too. Being new is no excuse" he called out.
I looked at the words, not reading them. This guys sucked. He just plain sucked. I stared at the detention. This was sure to set my dad off. I stuffed it in my bag and pretended to read, already scheming on how to prank this . . . teacher.
The second the bell rang, I left hoping he wouldn't call me. Luckily, he didn't. I grabbed my binder on my way out.
"Hey" I said furiously when Jake came out.
"Sucked?"
"Definitely" I said as I held up my detention. "I'm dead"
He just chuckled and pulled out his.
"We both are"
I gasped. "Jake, what'd you get that for?"
"For almost falling asleep. I mean, I wasn't asleep . . . yet"
"Huh, I got mine for doodling on my binder instead of following along" I said.
"He just sucks"
"Tell me about it"
"Hello, are you new?" said a jock with a football sweater and greasy black hair walking up to me, pointedly ignoring Jake.
"Uh, yeah. I'm Nessie and this is Jake" I motioned to the now frozen Jake next to me. The jock ignored the death glares Jake was sending him.
"So, how about you come round my place and we can have some fun tonight" he said as he walked up to me grabbing me arms.
"Ugh! No you pervert!" I said as I turned.
"Hey!" he said as he turned me around and mashed his lips to mine.
He suddenly flew off. I wiped my mouth and saw him slumped in front of some lockers, blood coming from his nose. I looked back at Jake and he was vibrating.
"Come on Jake, let's go" I said as we left toward the courtyard.
His shaking slowed.
"You okay? I can't believe that bastard . . ." he went on cursing the jock out.
I washed my mouth out with water 3 times until I was content that I was completely clear.
"Thank you" I said as I kissed him.
"Anything, anywhere, anytime" he said into my hair as we sat contently on a bench.
"Renesmee, Jacob, come here please" said a firm voice.
My eyes snapped open and I looked toward the voice. I paled when I saw the principal standing there. Not good.
"Yes sir" Jake said as he helped me up. "It's okay" he murmured as we walked to the principal's office.
We passed by the nurse and Jake and I saw the Jock in a cot, his nose bandaged. I knew this wasn't good yet Jake was smiling.
"In here" he motioned to his office.
We sat down in a chair in front of his desk, Jake in the chair and me on his lap.
"Normally fighting is consequences with immediate expulsion of both fighters"
"But sir!" I cut him off. "That guys was sexually harassing me and Jake saved me"
"Did he not punch him?"
"Well yes"
"And into the lockers?"
"Yes but"
"No buts Ms. Swan. He did what he did and there will be consequences. As I was saying, normally expulsion but it is your first day and . . . well, your transcript say nothing but good things about you 2. I think this might have been a misunderstanding but there will still be consequences. The student only got a minor concussion and a slightly broken nose so there is no real damage. You will both get a detention and I will have to contact your parents though" he said.
At that we both paled. Mom and Dad?! This was really, really bad.
"If I could just find your files . . . "
"Umm, sir? I know my dad's cell number and work number" I offered as I wrote down Carlisle's cell and phone number.
"Why thank you Ms. Swan" he said as he grabbed it and dialed.
"Hello? Dr. Cullen? Hi, this is the Principal of Lion Pride. Could you possibly come in for a few minutes. We have a problem."
All I heard was a "Yes sir" before he hung up.
"Your father will be here shortly" he announced.
I grinned but grimaced at the same time. I would have to deal with Carlisle which was a little better than dad but the hospital was a couple of blocks from the school . . . so he would be here in 3 minutes tops not giving me much time to prepare.
"Excuse my bad memory but did I already issue your detentions" the principal asked.
"Yes" I answered and pulled out Mr. Pay's detention. Jake did the same.
"Oh, okay. Don't want to forget" he said.
I distinctly heard when Carlisle arrived, flinching when he closed his car door.
"It's going to be okay" Jake comforted.
I nodded but then instantly paled. When we got home, dad would just find out from Carlisle and then . . . I shuddered at the thought.
"What Nessie?" Jake asked.
" When we get home, dad will just find out from Carlisle and then . . ." I shuddered at the thought.
I tensed when I heard Carlisle.
"Hello. I'm Dr. Cullen. I was called to come in" he introduced himself.
"Oh!" the attendant flustered. "Yes, right this way sir, err, doctor" she said.
I shrunk back into Jake as the footsteps got closer.
"Right through here doctor" said the attendant seductively.
If I hadn't been so nervous, I would cracked up. Didn't she already know he was happily married??
"Thank you" he said as he turned the knob.
Everything seemed to slowdown, the knob moving slowly. Finally the door was pushed open and Carlisle walked in.
