A Lesson In Discipline

Andrea's Dilemma

Andrea's POV

I startled myself awake.

Was I seriously just dreaming? It..it felt so real...

I woke to Mrs. Lockport trying to wake me up from what seemed like a real life scenario. Obviously that wasn't the case.

"Oops.. I didn't mean to startle you dear, I just thought you'd want to know that it's almost 7th period and Mr. Ferrington just called and asked to see you in his office again."

I groaned at the thought of seeing him again and so soon, he probably already determined my fate at this school.

"Did he tell you what it was about?"

"He didn't, but it did sound rather urgent. Oh! Before I send you on your way honey, I just thought you'd like to know some new evidence has surfaced in your favor. I'll leave it at that."

She gave me a sly wink and sent me on my way. I was assuming that maybe, just maybe someone had caught what happened before the fight broke out on video to prove that this time I was trying to do the right thing, trying to stick up for Vinnie in his time of need. I had been in such a deep thought that I almost forgot about my wet dream.

God damn.. I should stop at the bathroom first before I meet my maker.

A quick stop later and I was back on my way to the office. It just so happened that I needed to pass by Ms. Kaplan's room on my way there so as I walked by I peered into her classroom. It seemed empty. She wasn't even in her classroom.

Huh, must be her free period. 

I shrugged to myself and continued walking. I made it to the office and approached the secretary. 

"Mr. Ferrington wanted to see me again?.."

"Go right on in Ms. Hamlin, he has been expecting you."

I took a deep breath and reached for the doorknob. As I entered his office, I wasn't expecting my mom to be seated across from him in deep conversation about something. Probably about me because lets face it, why else would she be here?

"Ms. Hamlin! You've finally made it. I asked your mother to come in due to the circumstances at hand. We were just discussing our next course of action." 

I sighed lightly, I should've seen this coming and unfortunately I didn't. I was hoping my mom would still be at work and too busy to come in like she normally was. I sat down in the seat next to hers. I was expecting her to start lecturing me again on not getting into fights with anyone at school, but to my surprise she actually looked at me with a sincere look.

"Ms. Hamlin, now that you're here and I've had to chance to talk with your mother and reflect I'd like to start by saying that I looked into your claim about looking on the internet to prove your innocence. It must be your lucky day young lady because you were right."

I looked at the two of them in awe and in disbelief. I really wasn't expecting to hear that. Mr. Ferrington must've read my body language because after he glanced at my mother and I, he spun his laptop around to a video that had been posted to YouTube. The caption read: Douche of the Century Gets A**Kicked by a Girl.

Well fitted title.

I thought to myself as I watched the situation play out once more. The video was already at almost 10,000 watches with more than 1,000 likes and just as many comments.

"You were telling me the truth, but unfortunately you and Vincent were involved with fighting on school grounds and that is not acceptable."
