Holy Cow~10

~*~Chapter 10~Holy Cow~*~

The rest of the day passed in a blur. I kept alert but ignored everyone else. After talking with Mary I couldn't sit still. All the lies had made it unbelievably hard to keep ahold on my attention span. I wanted nothing more but to pummel someone with all my pent up strength and energy. 

By detention I was clenching my fists and bobbing up and down on my feet. I walked into the room ten minutes late without a care. Ronnie showed up late keeping me on Natalie duty. 

Walking through the door to detention everyone's heads shot to me, except for the teacher. "And you must me Jessie Whakter. You just earned yourself another day of detention. You should really feel accomplished being that its only your first day." 

I smirked at the sarcastic tone the young teacher was using. "Maybe the possibility of getting my parents to pay attention to me is all I want and hopefully this will get it," I lie. 

"Or," he drug out the 'r', "you just crave for people to believe you are all badass," he finally faced me before continuing on, "am I right or am I right?"

The second I saw his face I was in hysterics. "Seriously?" I questioned the man standing before me.

"Excuse me, miss, but are you laughing at me?" Kobal narrowed his eyes at me. 

"Yes, I am indeed laughing at you Mr. Rokes." He began to laugh along with me. 

~ Well Mr. Rokes, I applaud you for your capabilities of keeping your laughter in. 

I scanned the room to see nothing but four shocked an confused faces. Seconds later another teacher walked through the door. "Mr. Rokes, I realize its your first day student teaching but I figured it was common sense not to tell jokes to the students in detention."

Kobal quickly sobered up, "yes, sir, sorry, sir. It won't happen again." The old teacher marched out the door letting it slam shut behind him.

~If only that had been his arse.

I laughed silently at my best friend’s honest disappointment.

“Okay guys and girl, why are you here today?” Kobal asked as he sat on top of one of the desks.

The nerdy looking kid spoke up first, “I back talked a teacher. He was teaching us false information. Teachers just aren’t meant to mislead us they should know what they are teaching. Get their facts straight.” At the same time Kobal, some other kid, and I snorted but refrained from laughing.

“Okay, how about you jock?” I asked.

“Skipping class, nothing big.” I didn’t miss the glare he sent at me before answering.

Kobal and I looked pointedly at the last two identical teenagers. They looked at each other, shrugged, and answered. “We got into a fight with each other.” The fact that they answered completely simultaneously, shocked me. It was straight up creepy to be honest.

The jock wasted no time before turning to me, “what about you, cupcake?”

I shrugged, “just back sassed the gym teacher. It’s actually quite disappointing. I feel as though I’ve been slacking.” I let my head hang as I frowned. It’s heart wrenching at how I had gotten myself suspended and now this detention. I really need to step up my game.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~v^v^v^v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Getting my game back that night was not an easy task by any means. Kobal, Minor, Azael, and I all worked for hours to get my prank on. First of all, finding cows to buy on such a short notice isn’t easy. The not being easy goes for spray painting the numbers 1, 2, and 4 on them also. Transporting them to the school wasn’t too bad nor was getting them and a whole lot of hay in the school.

Setting up cameras was easy for Azael and Minor who are great with technical stuff. Kobal and I had one to do together and it took us forever to finally get it working.

My hopes were that by morning the cows 2 and 4 would have found a way to scatter themselves elsewhere. Cow 1 was in a special cramped place. I swear I could do an evil laugh right about now, but I won’t. There is definitely a guarantee of the halls stinking by morning.

The next morning all four of us refreshed masterminds sat in the living room getting ready to watch our plan unfold. My father joined us with a bowl of popcorn. Thirty minutes passed with no sign of life other than the cows and I must say it was making me tired.

“This is so boring!” Kobal groaned out dropping his head down onto my lap. He looked up at me reminding me of a small child. “When is the damn Principal supposed to show up, Jezzie?”

I pointed to screen at the exact moment the schools main doors opened. Mr. Toll walked in along with several other teachers.

“What the hell?” Mr. Tolls screaming voice had Kobal shooting up straight. Apparently he doesn’t like our decorating we had done with the hay.

“This ought to be good,” I whispered to myself.

I hit the button flipping it over to the camera that Kobal and I had put up in Mr. Toll’s office. He opened the door barely illuminating the room. Within seconds the morning light flooded into the room. He stood looking out his window until he felt someone nudge him in the butt. I heard him sigh before placing a command. “Not now, Belinda.”

My jaw fell open eyes wide. “So the principal is screwing the nurse, well isn’t that cliché,” Minor laughed out from beside me. His arm around my shoulders was shaking along with his chest beneath my head. I just reached up and covered his mouth wanting to hear whatever Mr. Toll would say next.

The cow nudged him again, “I said not now, Dammit!” When he was nudged for a third time he turned around coming face to face with ‘Uno’, or in other words Cow 1. He released the most unmanly scream the second he realized the cow wasn’t Belinda.

I turned to Kobal, “I believe that’s our que to head there, Mr. Rokes.”

Minor gave me a quick kiss goodbye before Kobal pulled me to my feet. He linked his arm through mine before we skipped/ran out the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~v^v^v^v~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The fact that we made it to the school in one piece with no speeding tickets is stunning. It was so chaotic outside with all the teachers, students, and even police crowding around. The two of us sat immobile in the car as we laughed.

~What are the cops going to do, arrest the cows for breaking and entering? Minor’s voice rang out through my head. I guess they were still watching from home.

I pulled myself together and got out of the Camaro and walked up to Natalie and Mary.

“Aren’t you going to ask why we’re all standing outside with the cops?’ Mary raised a questioning eyebrow at me but I just ignored her keeping a blank face as I stared ahead at the school, eventually just shrugging.

“Actually I have a better question. Did you at least get Mr. Toll’s reaction on video?” I smirked at the younger girls question but said nothing as I still continued to stare at the building. “You know they still can’t find Cow 3.”

I laughed at her comment so hard I had to clutch my stomach. When I was able to finally speak I looked back at the two very confused girls. The smirk had plastered itself back onto my face. “There isn’t a cow with a three painted on it.”
