Tempting the Troublemaker

Chapter 1: ‘Enemy at first bump'

WARNING: THIS CONTAINS OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE

_____x______

“This is it,” I said to myself as I got up. “My first day in this new kind of hell, also known as high school.”  The only thing that made even want to get out of bed was the promise of seeing my friends again, the well-known pranksters Jessie and Tessie.

Confusing, huh? Well let me explain. Jessie and Tessie are twins and my two best friends. Their real names are Jessica and Tessa. I know, that doesn’t even rhyme, right? 

Well their parents, unlike mine, are totally cool and chose their names just so that they could   get to call them that. That fact alone would make me love them like the sisters I never had.

We were best friends, right before my parents shipped me off to a boarding school, to and I quote ‘get some sense into me before I coud be sent to a mental institution.'

My parents can sometimes be overly dramatic.

They could have just sent me into the mental institution. It would have been the kinder option.

I guess my former principal thought that too, judging by the look on her face as she saw her bag infested by the countless earthworms I’d managed to steal from the garden and so lovingly put inside it, as my goodbye present.

Actually, I went a bit soft on her. After all, wouldn’t want her to be left with only bad memories, right? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Anyway, at least I would be riding to school with the twins and not my mom. That was one thing I was thankful for.

 I had a shower, got ready and ran down the steps to the kitchen and greeted my mom with the usual peck on the cheek.

“Don’t run down the steps like that. I thought a whole football team was coming to breakfast,” she said crossly.

“And good morning to you to mom,” I answered. 

I had my breakfast, which included my mom’s famous (well, only in my family) pancakes and some milk. After finishing, ran out and into my friends’ car, which had already pulled up to our respectable, but boring neighborhood.

“Heya, how’s my favorite motherfu-, Ohh! Mr. Clayton, I didn’t expect you to be here!” “It’s all right. I didn’t hear anything.” Though judging by my friend’s silent laughter, they certainly did. 

Thank god for Mr. Clayton’s less-than-perfect hearing.

A few minutes later, we pulled up at our school. We said our goodbyes and made our way towards the school. 

“So, do any of you guys have a crush?” I ask, with a smirk on my face, fully knowing that they considered all the guys around here worthless. 

So I was surprised when Tessie blushed, while Jessie punched her in her arm.

“C’mon, don’t be shy, I won’t laugh. I promise,” I assured her, while Jessie was mouthing the words, “You will.”
