two doors down

ms olsen?

she gives a small smile before moving into the teachers lounge. having my neighbour as a teacher that's not weird. actually thinking about it it's not that weird i kinda hope i have her as one of my teachers. the only awkward thing is from last night when she saw me getting those things i hope she actually believed me.

"hey y/n, i forgot to tell you yesterday but we're partners for science" rose said coming up to me. i was surprised she talked to me considering that she was more on the popular side and i well people knew me but i wasn't popular.

"oh yeah cool" i smiled it was better than being alone she smiled and went of with her friends. i closed my locker just as my friend monica comes up to me

"hey scruff nut" she laughs making me roll my eyes. that nickname was from when we were 3. a name her dad made up for me when we went camping. ever since he divorced her mum she kept calling me the name. as far as i know she hasn't talked to her dad in 3 years.

"bozo, how lovely to see you" i smile sarcastically

"oh you love me" she laughs, wrapping an arm around my shoulders as we walk to our first classes.    "so herd about the new teacher olsen or something, parently she moved somewhere near bennies" here's the thing about monica she knows everything. every piece of gossip and all the drama.

"yeah she's my neighbour" i tell her she looks at me with a 'bitch really' look. she's probably annoyed i didn't tell her right when i found out.

"and you didn't have a single thought to tell me" she whines. i laugh but don't answer as we made it to the music rooms. "you tell me what she's like after class" she demands walking into the music rooms while i keep walking to my maths class.

maths first thing. how pleasant. i walk into class sitting next to ava who i knew since primary school. we weren't close but known each other for years so it works.

"kat with a k" i mumble to her as i sat down

"cat with a c" she rolls her eyes with a small smile. it was something we had been bickering about since we were talking the other day and somehow sprung up a conversation about her mother. years ago i remember it being spelt kat with a k but she INSISTS it's cat with a c. like the animal. anyway, i pull out a book getting set up for the class as if i'm not just gonna sleep through it.

over half way through the lesson as i was dozing of my head on my arm i see lizzie walk past the door with the principal obviously getting a tour of the school. she doesn't notice me and i go back to trying to sleep.

what feels like a second later i open my eyes again to hear my teachers annoying voice. "y/n third time this week go to principle watson" the teacher points to the door. i don't even complain. slowly i pack up my stuff leaning over to ava

"how long this time"

"10 minutes, how long were u up" she questions

"uh 4 maybe 5" ava rolls her eyes and i gather the rest of my things walking to the door. making my way to the principal office i see a certain brunette sitting in one of the chairs next to the door. unluckily for me the only other available chair is right next to her. as soon as i take a seat lizzie looks over to see who sat next to her.

"y/n" she smiles

"hey uh miss olsen?" i question she laughs and nods

"so word spreads fast" i nod with a smile and she continues "why were you sent to the principals office" she enquires "sorry you don't have to tell me we just met" she adds quickly not wanting me to feel pressured. i smile to myself before explaining.

"i fell asleep in maths. it was the third time this week so understandable" i shrug looking at my bag by my feet.

"is there a reason your falling asleep in class" she asks hesitantly.

"i mean i go to sleep in the early morning so that explains it"  she laughs as the principle comes out of her door.

"here is your room number and classes elizabeth" ms watson says in her typical british accent. they talk for a few more seconds until lizzie walks off and ms watson is left in her doorway looking at me.

"again ms y/l/n" she shakes her head with a smile. she never got mad at me for sleeping in class as she knew i was ahead classes i slept in anyway. we walk back into her office and i take a seat across from her desk. "what am i gonna do with you huh" she smiles again nudging her bowl of jellybeans closer to me. i shake my head showing i don't want any.

"so ms olsen what does she teach" i question

"you know i can't tell you about the teachers" she starts professional before continuing "butttttt english and humanities" i nod thinking about it. after a couple minutes she hands me a slip to show i actually went to the office and walk out just as the bell rings.
