I was stood at the front gate getting a lecture from Bolton "Now, no running after people you don't know, or I'll kill yah" he said threateningly, I rolled my eyes "I won't, it was just a one off, besides I'm fine" I said "Yeah I know, but mum told me to keep an eye on yah and I will, you're my sister" he said, I sighed and hugged him "I'll be fine, I promise I won't run after anyone again" I said, he gave me a look "I swear" I exclaimed, he nodded and we walked into the school, he went to his mates and I spotted Janeece and Maxine, they were holding a bucket
"Heya guys" I said, they nodded in greeting "What's with the bucket?" I asked motioning to it "We been collecting money for the football team" Janeece explained, I looked on the front and it said '2 pound a ticket, raise money for Waterloo Road girls football team', I gave them both a look "How did you get the money?" I asked, they stopped walking and turned to me "Well, we went round the street and told people there was gonna be a raffle at lunch, some woman bought 5 tickets" Max said excitedly, I smiled
"And what's gonna happen when they show up to find there is no raffle?" I asked, they both rolled their eyes "C'mon Kace, who's gonna show up for a raffle 'ere?" Janeece asked, I nodded, it was a fair point, we started walking again "So what did you tell Mr Clarkson?" I asked "We told him we'd been washing cars, and he believed us" Janeece said giggling "Just hope he don't find out the truth girls" I said shrugging "Nah, he'll be so excited that we got enough money for the kit, that he'll forgive us"
Max said "Could happen, anyways I'll see yah later" I said parting from them "Bye Kace" they waved, I walked into the school and straight to my reg class with Miss Koreshi, I got there early and I saw her in the class with someone, it was Paul, I knocked on the door and she motioned me in, I walked in and hugged Paul "Hey" he said hugging me back, I pulled away a little "So, how is everything?" I asked hinting, he nodded "It's good, gonna take a bit of gettin used to but it's all good"
he replied, I nodded and turned to Miss Koreshi "Sorry Miss, did I interrupt anythin?" I asked guiltily, she shook her head "No KC, we just finished talking actually, your early, I gotta go get some stuff for the lesson but you two can stay here" she said, we both nodded and she left the class, I sat on the table and he faced me "I'm glad you're okay" I said, he nodded "Yeah, I still feel horrible that you were there last night though" he said,
I pulled him closer by his jumper "Don't worry about it, I decided to follow you, and stay with you, sides, you can't get rid of me" I sung the last part and he smiled "Oh yeah why not?" he asked amused, I tilted my head innocently "Because I promised I wouldn't leave you" I said quietly, he nodded and we hugged again. I had my 2nd lesson with Miss Koreshi and she was late, I also found out from a very cheesed off Janeece and Maxine that she had given them after school detention, all because they were excited about the match,
I was sat next to my friend Jamie and she was currently texting her 18 year old boyfriend, he was working somewhere and that's how she apparently met him "So how is dear old, Mike was it?" I asked, she looked up at me from her phone and nodded "Yurp" she said "He's fine, haven't seen much of him though, he's comin over this weekend" she said happily, I gave her a look "Are you gonnna?" I clicked my tongue and she mock gasped "My god KC, do you think that low of me?" she asked in a fake posh accent, I nodded "Pretty much, slag"
I said jokingly, she started hitting me playfully, and we finally stopped fighting "Nah, I dunno, depends what mood I'm in" she replied shrugging, I nodded in understanding and Miss Koreshi finally came in with a bunch of books "How come were not allowed to be late but teachers are?" Bolton asked with a tone, she blanked him and went to her desk, he gave me a look and I rolled my eyes, she looked at the class and put down her bag "Bags on the floor and books out" she said quietly, no one noticed but me and Bolton, Jamie was busy on her phone "Not listenin miss"
Bolton said smugly "I said bags on the floor and books out now" she repeated in the same volume level "You're gonna have to shout louder than that miss" I piped up, Bolton nodded "Like this, SHUT UP!" he shouted, the whole class went quiet before erupting in laughter, someone threw a paper ball at Miss Koreshi "Oh he can't do that miss send him to the cooler" Bolton exclaimed, Miss looked around the class before grabbing her bag and leaving
"And that took longer than I thought" I said to Jamie, she nodded and I took her phone, she had just text her boyfriend saying 'I love you' I smiled and gave her the phone, Mr Lawson suddenly came in and the class went quiet "It's Miss Koreshi sir, she's just done one" Bolton said, we all chuckled and Mr Lawson writ something on paper before folding it up and handing it to Bolton "Smilie, take this to Mr Rimmer and tell him to send a cover teacher to Miss Koreshi's room" he said, Bolton left the class and I started chatting with Jamie again.
It was lunch time and I was on my own in the cafeteria, the girls were practicing for their football match, Miss Koreshi decided to postpone the detention and now everything was back to normal again "Hey, can I sit ere?" I looked up to see Paul holding a tray "Course you can yah marshmallow" I said amused, he chuckled and sat down "So how was school so far?" I asked making conversation
"As good as school can get K" he replied taking a bite of the chicken "Fair play. You spoken to Bolton lately?" I asked hopefully, he looked up at me and sighed "Not yet, were talking but I'm hopin to be friends with him, not just for you but for myself aswell, I need some guy friends Kace, otherwise everyone'll think I'm gay" he said, I giggled "Yeah we don't want that to happen now do we?" I asked amused, he shook his head and carried on eating "What's that?" he asked motioning to my food, I smirked "Food darlin" I replied in a duh tone, he gave me a look
"Very funny, you're a right comedian" he said sarcastically "It's pasta with tomato sauce" I said reading from the top, he nodded "Can I try some?" he asked, I nodded and got a bit onto my fork, I held it out and he ate it "That's actually not bad" he said taking a bite of his own food "I know right?" I said.
Later on it was time for the footie match, I was watching and so far we weren't doing good, I spotted Bolton on the school stairs with Paul watching aswell, I smiled at the fact they were getting along "C'mon Waterloo Road!" I shouted, from my right Jamie was shouting aswell only stuff like 'kick their head in' or 'knock em down', even though they were brutal words it was making me laugh my head off, Mr Budgin, the old git was cheering for the other team,
I don't even know why he works here, he's never like the school or the pupils anyways, I could tell the girls were gettin really cheesed off with Danielle, she was in goals and she couldn't even block the ball, she was just ducking, even I was getting annoyed with her and that was unusual because I really like her and Aleesha, it was half time and the girls ran back into the changing rooms, when the game started up again I noticed Max and Jan were gone, and Miss Koreshi was in the field, my eyes widened and so did Mr Budgens "Oh my god, what is she doin?"
Jamie asked in as much shock as me "I ave no idea, I hope she can play" I said hopefully, they started playing and to my and Jamie's surprise Miss Koreshi was really good, the team were doing good but we still weren't sure if they were gonna win, after being tackled down Clo was given a free kick, it was all very intense and really quiet, she kicked the ball and scored "Yes!" Jamie screamed jumping up and down before hugging me, I laughed and cheered with her.
I met up with Bolton after school, he was waiting for me by the gates "Heya sis" he said in greeting, I hugged him "Alright" I said, we started walking and it was quiet for a bit "So, how was school?" he asked breaking the silence "It was alright, I guess" I said shrugging "Have a good lunch?" he asked more curious, I gave him a look "Yeah, why?" I asked skeptically,
he shook his head "Nothin nothin, just makin conversation" he said quickly, I sighed "Bolton you can tell me" I said, he thought about it for a minute "I saw you with Langers" he said, I nodded in understanding "You think there's something goin on?" I asked knowingly, he nodded "Bolton, if there was you would be the first one to know, he is your friend at the end of the day" I said, he smiled and threw an arm around my shoulder "Thanks Kace" he said, I nodded and we carried on walking.
