TW: some mentions of rape
Jacksons pov
Bran stands next to me smiling at his friends as we prepare to present our project, he looks to be a bit more well rested and better overall but that might just be an extra strong act He's put on after i told him how He's been acting makes it seem like somethings off with him. I guess i will never know.
"You can start" the teacher says boredly typing away on his phone, not paying any attention to the class what so ever.
I could see marco drawing pictures on the corner of connors page, Connors face being a mix of anger and happiness which i didn't even think was a thing. The teacher doesn't seem to notice Dannie in the back of the class with a joint between his lips, if it was ny other class he would have been in serious shit but our english teacher is too busy messaging his 17 year old girlfriend to notice whats happening. Im sure thats why english is Dannies favourite lesson.
"Well lady mcbeth is presented as a very strong character in the play, and at the time this wasnt too popular in texts as women where seen as inferior" Bran starts shuffling the little flashcards i made him in his hands. Bran chuckles softly as he sees the little drawing i did of him as lady Macbeth, it was shit but oh well.
Connor shoots me a death stare and gips onto his pencil in anger in response to Brans small laugh, i don't get why he hates me so much i mean i haven't even talked to the guy and its not like i chose to be partners with bran. But hes the type of guy to have a problem with everyone.
"Dannie smoke near the windows please smoke detectors are a thing" The teacher mumbles smiling down at what i think is a nude. Disgusting
"Yeah sorry dude" Dannie apologises standing from
His chair and walking towards the open window, his already large pupils staring at the sky.
"Psst Jackson its your turn" Bran whispers nudging my side slightly
"Oh yeah so Macbeth was deceived by the three witches which was the start of his downfall"i continue not like anyones paying attention. Oliver's off and he normally the only person paying attention to the people presenting.
"Okay thanks boys everyone just write a story or something" The teacher shrugs plugging some earphones in and smiling down at his phone again.
Me and bran go back to our seats but bran quickly leaves to join dannie at the window leaving me sat awkwardly. Me and bran talk so much over the phone but as soon as we step through the school gates its like I'm just another classmate to him.
"Jack do you know where oliver is today?" Conan asks turning around to face me, i shrug in response
"Nope, maybe hes just sick" i answer tapping my pencil lightly on the paper, conan frowns slightly
"Why, are you worried?" I ask placing the pencil down
"Yeah kinda" conan admits scratching the back of his neck awkwardly, i mean i don't get why he's so worried oliver is probably sick
"Don't be worried, He's probably sick and asleep" i answer, conan nods before turning back around leaving me staring at the table awkwardly. if Oliver was here i bet he would come sot next to me, he's nice like that.
"Okay kids you guys can go early" The teacher says standing from his desk and heading to the dark storage closet.
I don't even want to think about what he's doing in there.
