A/N: I've finally reached the drama section of the book so there's going to be more updates now (like 2-3 times a day hopefully) This chapters for all the Simonette shippers!
*Simons POV*
-Time Skip: Already in Period One-
Having Science first is possible the best thing in the world, best way to start a day. Although having English second isnt that great. I do like English, I like literature but there are subjects I would much rather do -ahem- Science again. This Science lesson will be interesting; we're taking DNA out of frogs. Sounds disgusting to some people as the frogs are dead obviously, but it's such an interesting way on understanding animal cells as well as seeing the process. I remember though that a certain someone is extremelly clumsy though so I hope she doesn't beat herself up over accidentally disecting the wrong part etc.
My microscope was set up, the method was written and I have the instructions next to me. All that's left is to get in the right mind set therefore I can concentrate better. It's hard though because no offence to Elliot, he does not shut up, and that's putting it nicely. Thankfully, he was engrossed in his work, for once, normally he just copies my work since I'm top of the class, joint with Jeanette.
Disecting a frog is actually pretty hard, it involves accuracy and pretty much your full attention as well as being extremelly careful. It gets quite fiddly when you're trying to take out some of the insides as well. It's also quite challenging when you have to get a strand of DNA, put it on a clear side nand dye it with Iodine to make the cell appear in the microscope. (A/N: I haven't ever done an experiment like this, I'm guessing how to do it.)
Before I knew it, the bell went meaning that I unofrtunately had English. My English teacher made us sit in alphabetical order so she could learn our names, which means I'm sat with people I really don't care for. There's two jocks and a girl who is the bitchiest person ever. Both of the jocks just muck about and are forever getting told off for not taking part. All the girl does is slag people off and complain about not getting new eyeshadows or whatever girls complain about. She's nice to me obviously, because I'm Alvins 'little' brother and because I'm in a band so I'm famous. That's all.
"Okay, for this lesson, I want the more able students to sit on the back table and you're going to work independantly. Incase you don't know if you are one or not, this will be Eric, Simon, Jeanette and Mackenzie" my teacher said.
Well at least I get away from my original table. We all sat on the table of four, at the back of the room. I sat next to Eric, Jeanette was opposite me and Mackenzie was next to her. Our challenge was to work through a whole test paper, testing our knowledge and having to use our writing skills. Fortunately, we were aloud to help each other which I was relieved about because English isn't my strong point.
Whilst I was writing, I couldn't help but listen in to Jeanette and Mackenzie's conversation, they were speaking about Oscar. Jeanette's boyfriend. Being honest here, I never expected Jeanette to be in a serious reationship. I knew she would at some point in her life but knowing know she is actually in a commited relationship, it shocks me. I'm not surprsied, she's a sweet, pretty, intelligent girl.
"Simon?" a sweet timid voice spoke up
I looked up, meeting Jeanette's violet eyes
"Uh, do you know another world for wealth?" she asked
"Well there's opulence, or if you want to keep it simple then there's luxury"
"Okay, thank you"
We smiled at each other for a few seconds, before Mackenzie started chatting her ears off about One Direction. I could tell that Jeanette really couldn't care, she just kept on saying 'yeah' nonstop.
At last, the bell finally went. Break time now. Best thing about break/lunch/free period is hanging out with my fellow nerd friends and most likely watch The Big Bang Theory clips off YouTube. Mostly of Sheldon and Leonard because let's all be honest, their friendship is weird but absolutely hilarious. I met everyone at our usual table, back of the canteen in the middle. Everyone was there except Elliot, who ended up getting a Science break time detention because he accidentally on purpose broke the glass slides. He didn't intend on smashing it completely but he meant to hit it on the table.
Weirdly, I felt quite bored hanging out with the guys today, after all we have been doing the same routine ever since year 7. I think we need to watch some new shows to be honest. I spoke to them for a little bit, about our normal convosations: The Big bang Theory, Periodic Table, Marvel/DC. Stuff along those lines. In the end, I told them I was going to go for a walk.
Because I was earlier leaving for my next lesson, I decided to take the long route, by the bike shed which was near the old locker corridor. I still don't understand why they put the bike shed near the part of the school they're trying to forget. Where's the common sense? barely anyone sits by the shed now. It used to be a huge, popular hangout however when we gained the new corridors as well as the astro-turf, it became not as popular.
Whilst walking, I heard a soft gentle sob. I recognised the cry however. It automatically made me extremelly mad and I felt my hands curl into a ball. I can't quite remember whose cry it is, but it definitley made me really mad. I followed the noise and before I knew it, I had Jeanette, curled in a ball, crying her heart out.
"Jeannie?" I called, calling her by her childhood nickname, "what's wrong?"
"Oh...Simon..." She said startled.
I squished in beside her and put my arm around her, letting her cry on me. I'll let her tell me when she's ready, or if she even wants to tell me.
"Basically...me and Oscar started arguing, and he said that sometimes he wishes she never dated me and instead said yes to Charlene when she asked him. And then he said I should just jump of a bridge because no one will miss me since I'm the least popular chipette member and I only have Mackenzie as a friend" she said, before bursting back into tears.
I was furious. Why the hell would he say that to someone? Let alone his own girlfriend.
"Jeanette. Listen to me. People will miss you, your sisters and Ms. Miller will be absolutely devastated. They will probably stop The Chipettes althogether and their lives will never be the same, knowing that their sister commited suicide because of some asshole. I'll miss you for gods sake, we may not be best friends now but the memories from Elementary school we shared will never go away. And hey,you'll always have me as a friend. We don't speak everyday, and we don't hang out with eachother because we have our own groups, but I'll always be your friend no matter what. And if he wishes he never dated you, he's missing out on a beautiful, talented, intelligent girl who any guy would be lucky to have" I said, going red because I called her beautiful to her face.
"Thank you so much Simon, you always know how to make me feel better"
"Jeanette?!" I hear a masculine voice call, sounding worried.
Oscar.
We heard his hurried footsteps and as if by magic, Oscar appeared in front of our eyes.
"Oh...hello" Jeanette said flatly
"Oh Jeanette, I am so sorry. I have no idea why I said that, I was just annoyed because we were arguing and then I started saying all this crap that I didn't mean. The moment you ran off my heart sank, knowing that I screwed things over. Of course I don't want you to jump of a bridge, that's my world gone within one jump. I'll be lost, ruined, unable to cope without you in my life. And we both know that Brittany's the main chipette member, but you'll always be my number one. I actually don't understand why I said that I wished I said yes to Charlene, that would my nightmare. In fact, I would've wished I said yes to you and not her. I'm so sorry Jean. I will do anything to make it up for you, ice cream date at 6?"
"you're forgiven, but please don't hurt me like that again" she sighed, getting up and giving him a hug.
Still the typical naive chipette then I see. As long as she's happy, I'm happy.
