One More Time | S.Hyde

Chapter 11- Suspended

Donna, Eric Hyde and I were standing outside school in the parking lot, looking at our report cards.

"Needs to focus more in class" I read off my report, "yah, well maybe if your class wasn't so boring and you actually taught us something useful" I said shoving it in my bag

"How do you even know what they teach when you fall asleep all the time?" Hyde asked bumping into me jokingly

"Don't judge me. I'm tired. Anyways, my grades are better then yours" I said laughing, making him roll his eyes

"Hey, check it out, I've got an F on my report card!" Donna said with a laugh

"An F? What did you fail?" Eric asked her

"English!"

"Isn't that...what we speak?" Eric asked confused

"Hey, I got a B in Spanish! When did I start taking Spanish?" Hyde said making me shake my head

I reached in my bag grabbing my pack of cigarettes and lit one. Donna looked at me before reaching in her own bag and lighting one of her own.

"Wow Donna! That's a cigarette!" Eric said surprised

Hyde look disgusted, "Even worse, it's a menthol!" He looked at me, "You're gonna get suspended little ladies!"

"When did you start smoking?" Eric asked Donna

"Well you just saw me light it!" She answered

"Come on Donna, you know smoking causes cancer." Eric told her

"I know, but it makes me look cool, so it's an even trade." She said taking a haul

I looked at Hyde who was staring at me, "When did you start smoking? It's kinda hot"

I laughed, "I've always smoked. Just usually only at work. And for your information, I'm always hot" Hyde just shrugged his shoulders and nodded

"Hold this" Donna said handing the cigarette to Eric

"Jeez Forman! Hold it like a man would ya?!"Hyde told him

"Shut up!" He held up the cigarette like he's smoking it and leaned against the car, "Wow Donna, first you fail English, now you're smoking. Can I ask you, what are you doing?!"

"Smoking...failing."

"Hey Forman, Blake! Smoking on school property?" I turned to see a teacher heading our way

I shrugged, "Yeah, want one?"

"No that's not his, that's mine!" Donna said trying to grab the cigarette from Eric

"No, it's ehh...it's mine" He took a drag from the cigarette and held it in his mouth "Yeah! Mmm! Menthol!"

"Eric! Quit it!"

"Yeah okay! Let's go" She said pointing towards the school

I took a last drag and put it out under my foot before following. Eric just dropped his on the ground.

I turned to look back at Hyde to see him picking up Donna's smoke, "Dios mio, no es bueno!"

•••

Eric and I got suspended. I'm super pumped about it really. No school for 3 days? Sign me up.
Eric on the other hand, not so happy.
We went to The Hub after we got out of the office to meet Hyde, Donna and Kelso.

"Eric Formans first suspension! I'm so proud!" Hyde said patting him on the back

"Hey what about me?" I asked
