Chapter 15 – Life At The Schoolhouse
The first morning I was there I woke up and walked down for breakfast. As I had arrived a bit later yesterday none of the other students had noticed I was there yet. When I walked down for breakfast Maggie who said it was alright to call her that asked me how my first night was.
"Yeah it was fine thank you" I smiled as I sat at a table and started to get some cereal. Rhiannon was sat at that table and she was friends with Bonnie.
"Are you serious?" she said as she saw me "What's he doing here?"
"Leo is unable to live at home right now so will be living here "
"But he is a bully!" she said angrily
"I remember someone else was a bully when they first came here too" Maggie said as it was a well known fact that Rhiannon had bullied Scout Allen.
"Yes I know but he only bullied Bonnie because she didn't fancy him"
"That's not true at all" I say starting to get annoyed, as we spoke there was a knock on the door. Maggie went to get it and came back with Mandy.
"Mands" I said hugging her, I didn't think she would come this early
"Sorry I wanted to check you were okay"
"I am fine, want to go out somewhere it is a Saturday?"
"Yes sure" she said as I heard Rhiannon snort and I turned around to look at her
"What's so funny?"
"Leo has a girlfriend, Leo has a girlfriend"
"We aren't dating she is my best friend"
"Yeah whatever" she said as she left and went upstairs
"Just ignore her" I said to Mandy as we walked out the door "So what do you want to do?"
"Want to go to the cinema? I want to see that new Cinderella" she said
"Errrr Disney princesses" I said
"Wait until they make a life action Frozen" she replied
"Okay sure why not, and if they make a life action frozen I am not going"
A few hours later we walked out the cinema, the film was supprisnely good and Mandy was talking about it, it was still only six so we decided to go back to the schoolhouse for a bit. We got in and sat in the living room and went on the playstation.
"This is impossible" Mandy complained as we played Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone on the Playstation and she got stuck on a level.
"No you Miss Ruskin just suck"
"No I don't!" she said as we messed around, Lisa Brown walked in as we were playing.
"Give us a go" she said snatching the controller out of my hand before I could say anything
"Hey give that back!" I said angrily pulling on the controller, Maggie walked in and saw
"Hey what is going on"
"Tell them Maggie they won't share! Said Lisa
"She is invading our private time" I responded
"Lisa you have to ask before just joining in and Leo you can't keep it to yourself"
"I will let her play once Mandy leaves"
"No now Leo that games system is for everyone"
That was one disadvantage to living here. Mandy and I couldn't get alone time but we shared with Lisa who soon go bored anyway and left. Mandy had to leave by ten on a weekend and Maggie came in at that time.
"Mandy love, it's time to go it's ten now"
"Okay thank you" she said as we both stood up
"I will see her home" I say "It's Dark"
I walk Mandy home then go back to the schoolhouse, Lenny passes me in the corridor and asks me if I am okay...I think the students are starting to come around.
