I found the perfect song for some of the scenes in this chapter. One of my favourite songs. Play when you get to them. Enjoy. Hope you like it. Like I said before this is my first attempt at writing. Its not great but I enjoy it. You get to see a little bit more of Riley too and who she really is.
I looked at the teacher and stood up 'Um ok, My name is Riley Evans, and Im 17. I moved here from Bedfordshire in England amd I live with my brother Alex who's an architect'. I started to sit down when I heard that annoying yappy voice once again...Tiffany..'So like is it true that you got kicked out of your old school'. I felt 25 pairs of eyes turn to stare at me 'yeah that's true'. She spoke once again not willing to drop the subject 'so what was it for, were you whoring around or something...you kinda look the type'. I turned to look at her a smile on my face 'actually it was for beating the shit out of someone..someone just like you..so don't mess with me you won't win'. I sat down and motioned to the teacher to start the lesson I think he was too shocked by my outburst to scold me for my language, or the threat gven to another pupil... I also think its because he kinda wanted me to kick her arse.
I actually had no intention of tearing her to shreds although I really want to, but I meant what I said to Alex I want to try not to let me anger get the better of me, maybe make some friends, start life...stop thinking of the brother that I lost. But its so hard when it hurts this much. Anyway snapping out of my thoughts I decided the best way to start my ew life was to pay attention in english lit.
The bell rang signalling the start of the next class, I gathered all my stuff together and tried to catch up with Casey, she seemed nice and I needed a friend but for some reason I couldn't see her anywhere. Damn she was fast. Sighing I headed towards my next class.
I didn't see Casey again until gym. I walked into the girls locker room and found her huddled into a ball in the corner with Tiffany's hand yanking her hair so she was upright. I couldn't stand bullies, I can't stand by and watch someone else suffer so some arsehole can get their kicks. This was why I got kicked out of my old school. Comming up behind Tiffany and her minions quietly I grabbed hold of her hair just like she had done to Casey and yanked, she let out an almighty squeal, she sounded a bit like miss piggy and I fought to control my laughter at this thouht.
'Its not nice when someone hurts you is it Miss Piggy' I said in my deadliest voice yanking that little bit harder
'What do you call me...Did you just call me Miss Piggy?'.
'Yes I believe I did, now get lost and leave Casey alone or I'll cut of your little piggy tail..go on piss off, shoo...or do you only understand pig' at this I oinked at her loudly. What made me laugh most in this friendly little chat was when I threatened to cut off her piggy tail she looked at her arse, with her hand over it trying to protect her piggy tail. Hehehe silly cow...or pig whatever you prefer.
'Thankyou so much, no one has ever done that to me before, once Tiffany decided she doesn't like someone, thats kinda it no one else does either, I think she's going to make your life hell now that you stood uup for me. Im sorry you got dragged into my mess. Do you want me to do your english assignment to make it up to you'
'Casey are you serious, no I bloody well dont want you to do my assignment, Im big and ugly enought to do it my myself thankyou very much. Honestly you nerds are really weird. What you can do is be my friend, hang out with me and stuff, Im not too good at the whole friend thing if Im honest, no one wants to be friends witha trouble maker'.
'Ok I can do that, now lets get to gym'.
Gym was funny, I don't have any gym kit and refused to wear something out of lost property so instead I watched everyone else, Miss Piggy was bouncing around doing her cheer thing and trying to flirt with Mr Sexy, I still don't know his name, I just gotta remember not to call him that If he ever talks to me. That would be embarassing. Much to my amusment everytime Miss Piggy put her fake boobs in his face he told her in no uncertain terms to piss off, everytime she would turn on her heal, stomp her foot and squel childishly, just like her namesake. I of course decided to make it worse by oinking at her.By the end of gym I was rolling around on the floor in fits of laughter, hey Im bored I gotta entertain myself somehow. I wish I could join in though bacause with a well fitting sports bra for the twins I was actually a very good runner.
Casey walked me to the luch room after gym and showed me her little corner that she ate in everyday, she really was excluded from everyone, I felt awful for her spending everyday excluded becuase you don't fit in. I made lunch for myself, I dont really eat meat of any kind and didn't know what to expect so I pulled out my tasty salad and started muching. 'Casey looked at me with disgust 'is that all your eating?' she said between mouthfuls of the massive luch she was eating, and she was stick thin too, where the hell does she put it all?. Casey looked above me eyes wide.
'What's up Casey, you look like you just sat on a bed of nails'.
She pointed at the figure standing above me, 'This is whats up bitch'. I looked up just in time to see Tiffany tip a try of spaghetti down my shirt. With an almighty roar I turned and lunged for her, my hands on either side of her head I pulled her hair hard. I bought my arm back and puched her in the face hard. I ws loosing my temper and I needed to stop now, but she just wouldn't quit pushing me today, and I was too far one to stop. I grabbed a milkshake form a nearby table and tipped it over her face. I felt two strong arms come around my chest and lift me. I turned to face Mr Sexy himself.
'Careful tiger she's not worth it' He said pulling me away from her squealing figure, which was writhing on the floor in pain. I noticed him dragging me out of the luch room away from the shocked stares of the onlookers. I turned to him with a smile and said the words that would embarass me forever.
'Thanks for saving me Mr Sexy. I would've been in deep shit had it gone further. Im in enough of it as it is'.
