She slipt into her Biology class just in time for the second bell, just in time for Mr. Miller's usual "SILENCE PLEASE!", just in time to see the vain in his neck pop out and just in time for the hall sweep.

Quickly taking place behind the last row of tables in the class room she put her headphones back on and pressed PLAY on her Walkman. Frankly, Mr. Shankly by The Smiths softly started playing as Mr. Miller started the lesson.

Mr. Miller was a stern looking man with a very clear opinion. It's was his way or a trip to the office, and that was exactly what Julia found so annoying about the man. Usually she just left it alone and tried to lay low so she could leave as soon as possible, but today she was in a particularly good mood. And Mr. Miller didn't make it very easy for himself either.

"Look, no one, who thinks that they are a homosexual, will get far in life. It's unnatural. Naturally these people just don't have the academic ability's to get anywhere."

As fast as Julia had tried to turn off her surroundings, the second she entered the class room, she was all ears again.

"Mhm, I beg to differ!" She scoffed.

Upon hearing her reaction, Mr. Millers face took colour.

"I'm sorry?" He warned, sending her a stern look.

Julia thought for a second, did she really want to spend her fifth period in principle Mr. Higgins office? But she quickly redeemed herself as she look him dead in the eye and grinned.

"Elton John. Rock Hudson. Billie Jean King.-"

"Miss Harvey!" Mr. Miller warned again loudly as the vain in his neck now looked close to exploding.

"Freddie Mercury.-" Julia spat grinning even wider as she climbed onto her chair. "-David Bowie. Judy Garland. Marsha P. Johnson."

This really pissed Mr. Miller off as he marched over to her desktop waving around a ruler looking an unhealthy shade of red.

15 minutus later she found herself, as predicted, waiting to be called into Mr. Higgins office. Julia stared at the ceiling as she was slouched over one of the chairs. This wasn't her first rodeo and sure as hell wouldn't be the last.

After an other 5 minutes a boy came through the door and reported himself persent before taking a seat next to her.

He had long brown shaggy hair that went in every direction, and two brown eyes peaked underneath his long thick bangs. He couldn't have been much older then herself. He was wearing a shirt with what seemed to be the devil on it and a text saying "Hell Fire". He wore both a leather and a jean jacket and his jeans were black. He looked quite cool.

"Pfh!" He sighed as he slouched some more into his chair.

"So, what are you in for?" He grinned. "I couldn't help but over hear a lot of noise coming from Mr. Miller's class"

"Do you really want the whole story?" Julia laughed shaking her head as she thought back to the whole scene. The boy just grinned in return.

"So, I'm already standing on the chair right?! And Mr. Miller is walking over to me waving that damm ruler around like he's going to take someone's eye out!" Said Julia enthusiastically.

"And I was like, well, I can't go back now! So I got on top of the table, still naming gay icons, and Mr. Miller grabs me by the arm. So I naturally make a run for it, and start walking, table for table, to the front of the class room where I then jump off the front row tables. And Mr. Miller is just yelling and making a leap for me! So i quickly ran out of the room quoting Shakespeare's "Conscience doth makes cowards of us all." But sadly after a few rounds around the school he caught up with me."
