It was the end of the day, and time for tutor. I did my best to run through the rain, but failed miserably. My plan to keep my hair straight all day didn’t go very well. I walked in to my tutor room earlier than everyone else, and sat on the table directly in front of Mr Autumn. He was looking through his e-mails again, and when I pulled out my chair he looked up at me. He smiled seductively, and watched me as I sat down.
‘’Your hair’s frizzy!’’ He cheered.
‘’Yep, kill me now.’’ I moaned.
‘’I told you, it looks cute frizzy!’’ He chuckled.
At that moment, two girls in my tutor group walked in. They had overheard the conversation and were rolling their eyes up. I absolutely despised these girls. They were like life-size Barbie dolls, and had probably slept with everyone in this school, minus the teachers.
The brunette one, Leah, was the worst one. She was probably one of the most popular girls in the world, and wore enough make up to go on every woman in China. The other one was called Amie, and she had bleach blonde hair. She was more a slave to Leah than a friend, and followed her everywhere. I smirked at them.
‘’Hey, Leah; how’re you today?’’ Mr Autumn said to Leah, smiling at her.
‘’Hi, Sir; I see you’re talking to that again. Oh, where are my manners? I mean talking to Madeline again.’’ Leah replied, spitting my name.
I wanted to punch her for two reasons: One, she was calling me by my full name and saying it like it was disgusting. Two, she was being a bitch, as per usual. Of course, I couldn’t punch her. I would get in so much trouble. Instead, I just looked at my feet and clenched my fists.
‘’Yes, I was talking to Maddy again. Is that a problem?’’ Mr Autumn hissed, catching Leah off-guard.
Leah cleared her throat, and tried a different tactic. She walked over to the table until she was leaning over Mr Autumn. Then, she pulled her top down until she was exposing most of her cleavage. Her face was centimetres away from his neck; she was breathing on his neck.
‘’It’s not a problem, Sir. I was just wondering; why would you sit with boring, ugly, Madeline, when you could sit with better people? People like me.’’ She whispered, loud enough for me to hear.
Amie started giggling at her, while I started boiling with anger.
How dare you! I thought to myself. I can’t believe she would do that! Slut!
Mr Autumn turned his head to look at Leah, and their lips were centimetres apart. Leah started smiling, leaning forward slightly. I was close to tears; if they kissed, I’d have to kill her! Just when I thought he would kiss her, Mr Autumn said something that shocked us all.
‘’You’ve just shown me that these apparently ‘better’ people are sluts. I know where I’d rather sit thanks. Oh, and she’s not ugly, nor is she boring. Go and sit down, Leah.’’
I smirked, trying to contain my laughter. Leah walked back to Amie, a disappointed look on her powdered face.
‘’Sir, you can’t call me a slut! I’m going to report you!’’ She whined.
‘’No you’re not, because otherwise I’ll call your mother and tell her that you’re trying to bed a twenty- eight year old man.’’ Mr Autumn snapped, smirking at her.
Leah scoffed, and walked back to her seat. Amie followed her, turning her head to give both me and Mr Autumn a dirty look. I started to laugh, while Mr Autumn smirked.
‘’You okay?’’ He said suddenly, placing his hands on top of mine.
I stared at his hands for a few seconds. I couldn’t believe he was touching me; I wanted to lace my fingers through his. His hands were warm on my cold ones.
‘’I’m fine; it’s nothing I can’t handle.’’ I muttered. He squeezed me hands gently, and then let go.
Everyone finally turned up, and Mr Autumn took the register. He didn’t read anyone’s name out, but looked around the room instead. I sighed as I gathered my things. I looked up, and Mr Autumn was holding out my pencil case for me while staring at his laptop screen. I smiled to myself, and went to take it. Our fingers brushed, causing me to flinch as electricity ran through my veins. I looked to him for a reassuring smile, but he was reading an e-mail. I sighed as the bell went, and walked out of the room without saying a word.
As soon as I got home, I switched on my laptop and signed in to Facebook. Katy was online, so I spoke to her on private chat.
Maddy says: Hey babe, do me a favour okay? If Mr Autumn asks if you wrote ‘For Alex, I love you.’ on my notebook, can you say that it was all you?
Katy says: Hey gorgeous! Sure. Why, did he see it?
Maddy says:Yeah, he was looking through my lyrics and saw it. I saved myself by telling him it was you who wrote it, don’t kill me!
Katy says: Don’t worry about it, babe. I’ll make sure he knows it was me, even though it wasn’t! OMG have you seen Leah Bruno’s profile picture? Tramp!
I sighed and clicked on Leah’s profile. I started laughing as I saw her picture; it was her, and she was top-less and bra-less, with her long hair extensions covering her boobs. I shook my head at the laptop. This would be something to annoy her about tomorrow.
Maddy says: OMG could she get any sluttier if she tried? Mr Autumn was right when he called her a slut! LOL.
Katy says: LOL, Mr Autumn called her a slut? What a babe! I love that man.
I clenched my fists until I felt my nails digging in to my palms. I knew Katy was only kidding, but I hated it when people used affectionate terms towards Mr Autumn. I guess you could say I had major jealousy issues.
Get a grip! I thought. She’s your best friend and she isn’t interested in him. She wouldn’t do that to you.
Maddy says: Ha, me too ;) I’ve got to go now babe, speak to you at school. Bye, love you xx
I signed out before she could reply, and curled up on my sofa. I missed him when he wasn’t here- hell; I missed him as soon as he was in a different room to me. I longed to have him hold me, to nuzzle my head in to his neck and smell him. I wanted to run my fingers through his thick, floppy brown hair and whisper sweet things in to his ears. I wanted him to kiss my neck and run his hands up and down my back.
I picked up my guitar and sang one of my favourite Taylor Swift songs; You Belong With Me.
‘Can’t you see that I’m the one who understands you? I’ve been here all along, so why can’t you see; you belong with me?’ I sang, tears running down my face. I often cried when I was at home, because I missed him so much. I just missed the amazing feeling he gave me.
I went upstairs to have a bath. I wasn’t in the mood for dinner, so I would head straight to bed afterwards.
