(Poppy's POV)

I stopped on the corridor outside the art room to catch my breathe, I wasn't being followed so I was okay for now. The art room was empty and I noticed some tins of paint in the corner. I pulled out my phone and dialled Bolton's number, he had a free period and answered straight away.

"Pops what's up?" He answered

"I need your help. Meet me in the art room" I told him before putting the phone down

I put my phone back in my pocket and went inside. I'd ditched the skirt today and was wearing my black skinny jeans and my jumper rather than my blazer. But still stook to my usual converse and 3/4 length sleeved shirt. I found a tin of orange paint, Max Tyler's car was black so it would show up great. I picked up a green one as well may as well add some creativity to the mix.

Bolton came down to the art room and I handed him the orange paint, before ushering him outside before we got caught. Tyler's car was parked by the fire escape...

"What's this for?" Bolton asked

"I'm gonna teach Tyler a lesson" I told him "Come on run!" I said

I sprinted across to his car and crouched down beside it, Bolton did the same. I rolled up my sleeves and took out my keys using them to prize the lids off both tins.

"What happened to your wrist?" Bolton asked

I hadn't realised I'd left my sweatband with Lara...

"Trapped it in a door, no biggie" I told him

I picked up the green paint and Bolton grabbed the orange then we walked round to the front of the car and I threw the paint across the windscreen before dumping the rest on top. Bolton did the side windows and the top...Then we dumped the tins and ran. We ran through school, when I saw Mr Tyler coming out of his office I froze...Luckily he got called back and we hide under the stairs. When he'd gone through the door we ran up the stairs but he heard and came back through...

"OI! MASON! SMILIE! GET BACK HERE!" He screamed

We kept running down the corridors and stopped outside the cooler. Bolton laughed wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing me.

"My girls a bad ass innit" Bolton smirked

I grinned and kissed him again.

"We need to get to class before we lose our alibi" I told him

We both had english with Mr Clarkson and we were already 10 minutes late. We went in and headed to the back sitting down.

"Where have you two been?" Mr Clarkson asked

"Lost track of time sir" I answered

"Wait behind at the end"

He got on with the lesson and Lindsay turned around to talk to me.

"Where were you?" She asked

"Teaching Tyler a lesson" I smirked

"What did you do?" She asked

"Poppy! Lindsay! Something you want to share?" Mr Clarkson asked

"No sir" Lindsay said

"Poppy go and wait outside"

I stood up and sloped off outside, I'd been stood there about 5 minutes, when Mr Clarkson came out.

"What is going on with you today?" He asked

I shrugged

"Listen, I know you're going through a hard time at the minute but that doesn't mean you can get away with showing up late and talking all lesson"

"What's going on?" Rachel asked

She walked through the door towards us and I rolled my eyes.

"She turned up late to class and then started talking to Lindsay..." Mr Clarkson explained

"Come on" Rachel sighed "My office, thanks Tom"

Rachel escorted me to her office where Lara was still sat. I spun and went to walk back out.

"No you don't" Rachel said standing in front of me

I stood in front of her desk, which she perched on.. She folded her arms and looked at me with that headteacher look.

"What's going on? Fighting with Amy Porter. Graffiting the cooler. Now turning up late and mouthing off...You realise I'll have to punish you for this and after your little display for Mr Tyler this morning, I'll be surprised if he doesn't suspend you. You do not lash out with your fists Poppy!" Rachel lectured

Mr Tyler came storming into the office, his face red with frustration.

"I'll have you excluded for this!" He told me angrily

"Excluded for what?" Rachel questioned

"She paint bombed my car!" Mr Tyler said in another angry outburst

I couldn't help but laugh, then Rachel gave me a warning look and I shut up.

"Did you do it Poppy?" Rachel asked

"Nope, but when you find out who did tell me so I can shake their hand" I sniggered

"Come on" Rachel sighed "Cooler..."
