"Dan, Dan, he's the man, that's why we're his number one fan" The class chanted there 'Anthem', as I had just successfully sassed my English teacher out the room,
"Daniel James Howell please report to the head teachers office immediately" a voice over the loudspeaker shook, and the whole classroom let out a 'ooooo' as I strolled out the classroom towards Mr.Robin's office,
"Come in Daniel" I hear Mr. Robin call as I approach the door, as if he could sense my presence by the door.
"Hey sir" I grin, planting myself on the extra seat in his room and placing my legs up on the desk,
"Mr.Howell, would you please care to remove your feet off my work surface" Mr. Robin glares, I let out a long exaggerated sigh, before sliding my get off till they hit the floor with a loud thud.
"So, what's this I've been hearing about you making Mrs. Anderson cry?" Mr.Robin sighs, rubbing his eyes with the palm of his hand, I don't think there's ever been a whole week that I haven't been sent to the head teachers office, for doing something 'wrong'.
"It's not my fault she's weak" I smirk, and Mr.Robin looks at me, a tired look struck on his face.
"Daniel, I know that you don't have many friends, and all the people you like prefer others, trust me, I've seen it for myself, but that doesn't mean you can take your feelings out on teachers!" Mr. Robin pleaded, I was furious,
What gave him the right to choose who likes me or not!?
"WHAT THE HELL SIR!? I HAVE FRIENDS, WHO DO YOU THINK I AM, SOME FUCKED UP LONER WHO SITS IN THE BOYS TOILETS CRYING ABOUT THE FACT THEY HAVE NO FRIENDS AND THAT NO ONE WILL EVER LIKE THEM!?" I shout, standing up and using my height against Mr.Robin,
"Daniel, please sit down, and that's not what I meant, I know your very popular and have friends to hang out with, what I mean is they all prefer another person to you" Mr. Robin explains, and the truth stung me,
I knew this was all true, and it's one of the reasons I haven't had a best friend for all my life, but is it noticeable to others?
I stay silent and stare at Mr.Robin intensely,
"Look Daniel, I have given you countless detentions, and they obviously don't do anything for you, but I may have a solution to help you out" Mr. Robin smiles, and I look at him unsteadily,
"If you suspend me my mum will have a fit, sir I'm begging you, please don't!" I ask, terrified of my mums reaction to finding out I'm suspended.
"Daniel, it's okay, I'm not going to punish you" Mr. Robin comforts, and I look at him confused, "there's a new boy joining school tomorrow, like you, he finds it hard to make friends," Mr.Robin starts, I start to argue against his point, but he carries on,
"So I'm making it your task to look after him, your to hang out with this boy and get to know him, and who knows? You may become best friends" Mr. Robin nods, and I scoff
"Sure sir, what ever you want sir" I sigh, unsure if being forced to hang out with some looser is a great thing or not.
I get up to leave the classroom,
"Be here tomorrow at 8am Daniel, I want you to meet him first" Mr. Robin nods,
"What's this mystery boys name then eh?" I ask, and Mr.Robin smirks,
"Philip, Philip Lester"
Phil, he could be cool I guess
"See you tomorrow then sir" I glare, slamming the door behind me,
"Bye Daniel!" Mr. Robin shouts unenthusiastically,
"IT'S DAN!" I correct through the door, before storming off back to English.
