Mike dragged me by the wrist down the long corridor, snaking round corners and turns faster than light. Adrenaline was pumping through my body, I still had no idea where we were going or what we were doing.

"Hey- Mike....where are - we actually going-?"

The breath was snatched out of my body and I forced the words out, this was all so thrilling. My second day here and I was already on my way to cause havoc! 

"To the back of the building" He smacked his rucksack, which somehow managed to stay hanging off his shoulder, and immediately i recognized the familiar jangling of spray cans knocking together. I had only done this one or two times with Justin and Jesse back home but I usually just kept lookout for them. That was no fun. This, however, would be great.

Mike pulled me around one last corner before releasing my wrist and exploding through some double doors outside onto a hardcourt.  I had never been out here before.

Out past the hardcourt was a massive field with soccer pitches, tennis courts, random trees and benches and flower patches, to be honest it looked quite cool. Right at the very back was a thick row of trees, I’m pretty sure I would be exploring there sometime soon. I was snapped back to reality to a hard bump to my head and the sound of rattling rolling away from me. I looked down to see a small can of blue spray paint rolling around by my feet.

"C'mon Kellin we need to hurry up before Mrs Jardine realizes that I’ve gone"

I snapped into action, picking up the can and turning to my canvas in front of me. Mike had already begun his work and from what I could tell, he was good at art.

"Do this often then?" i asked him whilst working on my 'masterpiece', i wasn't the best at art but i guess that doesn’t really matter.

"Nope, but there’s a first time for everything I guess" He let out a small chuckle as we both step to admire our work. Mike had drawn a massive Kermit the frog with his middle fingers sticking right up. It looked amazing, how someone could produce that in such a little amount of time amazed me. We both turned to look at my tiny creation, a crappy looking guitar and PEOPLE= SHIT written just below it. 

"ahahhaha better luck next time bro" Just as Mike said this I noticed how he also had an American accent, the same as Vic’s actually, huh, I would have to ask him about that later but for now we had to ditch.

After about five minutes of running we both slowed down to catch our breath.

"So Kellin, why did you move to this place?" Mike asked a hint of curiously in his voice.

"well basically my mom and dad couldn’t handle my 'reckless' behaviour anymore so they sent me to this place. Its where my dad went as a child and they think that it will somehow straighten me out. Hah, I’m just going to get excluded and set back home you wait and see."

I don’t know why I was telling Mike all this stuff, I barley even knew him and I never opened up to people but i guess I’m never going to see him once I get sent back so it doesn't really matter.

"Anyways, Mike, your American aren’t you? where are you from?

"yeah, I’m from San Fran, me and my brother moved here about a year ago..." As soon as he said that his face dropped and he averted his eyes to the floor. I could tell he was hiding something but I don’t know him well enough to ask, so i dropped the topic.

"Right...c'mon I just heard the bell for second lesson, I need to go to at least one lesson on my second day here" I spoke as I jumped up from the bench we had managed to find to be greeted by a long moan from mike. Probably because i was forcing us both to go to lessons we would rather skip. It had to be done though.

"ok bro, i'll see you around" and with a friendly punch in the arm he was off on his way. I think I just made a new friend.

After pulling my timetable out, I headed to my next lesson, Biology. I hate all sciences. This was going to suck. I slumped into the class room and the first thing I noticed was the familiar frizzy haired Mexican sitting at the front. Vic. It was as if he was reading my thoughts because just then he spun around in his chair and flashed me a small smile, I smiled back and then he turned back around. Oh wow his smile was...SHUT UP KELLIN. What is going on with me.

"Mr Quinn, could you come over here please" I spun my head around to see a male teacher leaning back against his desk. He seemed so much more relaxed than the other teachers here. I walked up to him and he threw his hand out, expecting a handshake, I reluctantly gave him one since he was so nice.

"So Mr Quinn, I will be your biology teacher here, do you mind if I ask where your uniform is." I knew this was coming...

"I...erm....its....Mrs Jardine hasn't given it to me yet sir" total lie but he seemed to believe me so it worked out fine.

"Okay Kellin, well your seat is at the back in the right hand corner, go and sit please. Class, settle down now we need to start."

I looked to my seat, alone, yes! I would rather not deal with sitting next to some stuck up ponce from this place. I immediately sunk down into my chair and dazed off into my own little world, not really paying attention to anything, that is until the tannoy went off...

"Could Mike Fuentes and Kellin Quinn please make their way to the head teacher’s office right now" 

Everybody turned to face me, I could practically feel my cheeks turning red and judging eyes burned into me, especially Vic's. He seemed especially angry, I wonder why. I slowly made my way out of the room, not looking back to see peoples glares. When I reached the office I saw through the window that Mike was already in there, he snapped his head up when he noticed me outside, shrugged his shoulder and looked back down. Had we been caught? Already? 

My fears were confirmed when I entered the office to see a video tape of me and Mike vandalizing the school wall playing on the TV and a very angry looking Mrs Jardine...

"Kellin sit down now. You have been here for one day and you are already causing trouble, this is a serious offence I could get you EXCLUDED FOR THIS!" her voice goes straight through me.

Yes get me excluded that’s pretty much my aim you old hag. I looked at Mike and smirked and I could tell he was holding back laughter.

"Do you boys think this is a joke!!!!? This is not a joke you are such rude young men! Now I will not exclude either of you but if I catch you doing anything else like this you will both be out in a second, and don’t think I won’t do it. For now you will be in detention every day after lesson, scrubbing that way, for one week, starting today.

When we left the office we both burst into a fit of giggles

"This is not a joke blah blah blah" Mike pulled just about the worst impression i had ever seen but it just made the situation 10x funnier.

"ahahha well I guess I will see you in detention you rude young man ahah" I gave him a quick handshake and we both went our separate ways, a smile still plastered on my face.
