Chapter 19:

Thumbtacks

I walked in quickly and dropped off all my stuff in my seat. I wasn't a trouble maker normally but I went through hell yesterday so I was determined to make him feel my pain. I was doing the classical. I fished around my backpack and got a handful of thumbtacks. Then, I walked up to his desk and waited. He walked in as the bell rang.

"Okay class, quick warm-up for we have a lot of work to do" he said as he walked to his desk. "Ah, Mrs. Cullen" he asked in a monotone.

"Hello Mr. Pay, I just wanted to apologize for not paying attention yesterday" I said.

"Ok Ms. Cullen, now take your seat" he said as he began to sit down.

"Take yours" I muttered softly as I flicked my wrist incredibly fast placing all the tacks right after he checked the seat. I hadn't even taken two steps before I heard

"OW!!!!" and heard a THUMP, papers flying and Mr. Pay cursing out.

Everyone cracked up like crazy. First of all, it's a pretty funny sight to see a person sit on a tack and second, when a person curses out, they normally turn shades of reds and blues and they scream it really loud. This is exactly the demonstration Mr. Pay gave us.

Everyone was laughing so hard as he cursed out everything in his room. From his chair to his stapler to the photo of his ex-wife! Finally, all his racket attracted administrative personnel. We laughed as the nurse ran in with a syringe but stopped short as she saw Mr. Pay.

She probably thought he was a crazy kid and was going to sedated him. The principal came in to see what was the racket and froze as he saw Mr. Pay as well. Our classroom now had a bunch of administrators just staring at the cursing Mr. Pay. Some students were sticking their heads out of their doors to see what the racket was.

"Mr. pay, please calm down" the nurse said as she closed in on him with the syringe.

"I don't need medication, I need someone to the freaking tacks out of my ***!" he yelled as he turned.

I that, we all cracked up harder. He had 25 thumbtacks stuck to his pants! 25!

"Sir, the bell is about to ring" informed one of the administrators.

"Calm him down and take him to your office" Mr. Possibilities ordered the nurse.

She nodded and stuck him with the needle.

"I said I don't need no mebicaton an bu r sooo—"

Seconds later, he collapsed. With the help of the teachers and staff, they managed to carry him away right as the bell rung.

"Oh. My. Gosh! That was hilarious! He had a total mental breakdown!" Hannah said as we left.

"Totally, I didn't even know he was married" Chris said.

"He isn't remember. His ex- wife screwed him and then stole all his money" Jack said.

"What happened in there?" Jake asked as he caught up to us.

"I'll tell you in a sec." I promised. "bye guys!" I waved as they headed off to class. "Come on" I said as I guided him toward the library.

We went in quietly and walked all the way to the back, sitting on the love seat.

"So, what happened?" Jake asked.

"Okay, well I was pretty pissed off at Mr. Pay for what happened yesterday so—"

"You caused all that?!" Jake asked incredulously.

"Well, I didn't mean to. As I was saying, I was angry so I but some thumbtacks under his chair as he was sitting down. He sat on them and then went totally berserk. He was yelling and screaming and cursing and he turned blue! He cursed out everything. Us, the walls, the desk and even his ex-wife . . . which by the way, in all his screaming he cursed out at how she played him and then stole all his money" I explained laughing.

"Wow, technology was . . . well, really boring in comparison to your class" he said.

We both laughed for a while but then the cranky old librarian hobbled over and told us to be quiet.

"Okay, let's go have lunch" Jake whispered and I nodded quickly.

We walked out of the library and walked toward the cafeteria. On the way there, he passed the infirmary and I couldn't stop from cracking up. Mr. Pay was still sedated but they had him in a gurney upside down and were plucking tacks from his behind.

"You really made him pay" Jake said and I laughed as we walked into the cafeteria.

The smell of Mexican food made my mouth water as banners advertised Mexican Day. I grabbed some fajitas and a water while Jake grabbed chips and salsa and a coke. We paid and slowly walked over to friends.

"Hey guys!" I said as we sat down.

"Hey Neisse, Jake. So, are you guys going to Bears creek tomorrow with us?" Matt asked.

"Ummm . . . yeah" we both said simultaneously.

I turned to him, curious. He mouthed later and I nodded.

"So, how's it going to be? We're going to have to head back and grab our motor cycle but we won't take long. Then, do we meet up at the place or . . . "

"We can all meet up at my house. From there, we'll all head off to Bear's Creek together. You guys better remember to bring hiking gear though" Jack said.

"Where's your house?" I asked.

He quickly ripped out a piece of paper and wrote his address and phone number. I was about to grab it when Matt grabbed it and wrote down his address and number. It went around the whole table until I had everyone's address and number.

"Thanks guys, here's mine" I said as I wrote it all down and showed them.

"Oh, and bring food because after the sun goes down, we'll have a bonfire" Ethan added and we all started talking animatedly about the trip.

It was only the bell that snapped us out of all of our planning. We threw out our lunches and together with Jake, headed to Biology. We took our seats quickly just as the teacher walked in. She put up a PowerPoint and began teaching but we were hardly paying attention.

"So, you're plan on going?" I asked softly.

"So, you're planning on going" he said right back and I laughed.

"Yeah, I guess we'll just go home, grab our stuff and sneak out before they get home" I suggested.

"Maybe we should wait until they get home so they see us" he argued.

"Yeah, but once they get home with Alice and dad and all, it'll be nearly impossible to get away" I said.

"Yeah good point, we'll have to be quick then, to be out of hearing range by the time the get there. They also can't see us leave" he said and I nodded.

"Okay class, now that you took all those notes on the power point, you can fill in the worksheet for homework" Mrs. Oxlyn said as she passed out a packet.

"Crap, what about homework? We can't do it while hiking and if we do it when we get home, they'll be like 'then what were you doing all this time?'"I said as I stored the paper and got up.

"Umm . . . maybe we can do some during gym. Then maybe some in the morning . . ." he thought.

"Hey, we'll just figure it out when the time comes" I said as I kissed him quickly and ducked into the locker room.

I changed into the hideous uniform and left the locker room quickly.

"Hey Ness!" Lily called as she jogged over. "You excited for Bear's Creek?" she asked.

"Yeah, I go camping a lot but never really hiking and not with friends so yeah, I'm psyched" I said happily as Jake came out and walked over to us.

"I'm keeping my distance from the coach" he informed us making us laugh.

"Okay guys, basketball day. We have 8 nets and 25 balls, knock yourselves out" he said as he sat down.

"Here's our chance" I said as I went back to the locker room and grabbed my bag.

"You're doing homework?" Thomas and Nicole asked incredulously as I took out my stuff.

"Yeah, that way I don't have to do it when I get home at around 11pm" I explained and they all suddenly ran into the locker rooms and grabbed their stuff.

We made a big circle and all started working on our stuff. We split the Calc, Government and biology part into sections. Everybody would do a part and at the end, we would take their answers and they would take ours. It didn't really make a difference to Jake and I since we already knew all the stuff. When the bell rang, we all packed up our stuff and headed quickly for the parking lot.

"Come on" I said as we jumped in and drove away quickly.

"Okay, we have about 20 minutes so we have to be quick" Jake said as we pulled up to the house.

We walked in normally but I had a slightly grouchy face.

"Hey guys, how was . . . Nessie, are you okay?" Esme asked worriedly.

"Yeah Esme, I'm fine, just upset that I'm going to be stuck doing homework while all my other friends will be at Bears Creek" I said as I went upstairs.

I said it kindly because I thought of Esme almost like a second mother. Once I got to my room, I grabbed a bag and started throwing in gear. I changed quickly, put on my tennis shoes, put up my hair and tiptoed to Jake's room.

"Ready?" I asked.

"Yeah, let's just grab some small snacks and we'll leave" he replied as he slung on his backpack.

We tiptoed slowly downstairs. I pushed Jake against the wall as Esme flittered upstairs.

"Come on" I said as we dashed toward the kitchen.

We opened the fridge slowly, flinching at the squeaking. We grabbed two sodas and closed it slowly. We opened the cabinets and went for a bag of Doritos. We grabbed them slowly, flinching again at all the crinkling of the stupid paper. Once it was safely in our backpacks, we ran to the garage. We opened the door and slipped through the smallest crack possible. We jumped on Jake's motorcycle, put on our helmets, secured our bags and sped off into the street.
