Break Time

Two lessons was a lot for the designated 'three little piggies'. A short length of the lesson would have made it fun enough, one for them to talk and go through before coming out of the classroom for their break. Not so easy enough. Coming out of the classroom, they're all looking forward to their break.

Danny gets out of the classroom, with everyone else following him, passing by. He looks around, still wondering where Tom is. He hasn't been in school since yesterday. Going missing and all that. Still going inside his mind. Not wanting to think about it, just let it flow through.

"God, this lesson was so boring." said Joe. He couldn't bare listening to their teacher rambling about this tricky equation that they would soon learn for their upcoming mock exams and when they turn 16 for their GCSEs. But delivery was not on par. It was below their expectations. He wanted something to make this lesson, this subject more interesting, more fun but he didn't reallyquite catch that. Instead all he could do in the lesson was daydream. Daydream God knows what.

"Yeah man. It's making me fall asleep." Danny admits, he couldn't keep his eyes open on the lesson all day. If slept, he would have been awakened by force. Making his day more of a living Hell.

Amy comes out last. Taking too long to get her things out. Keeping both boys waiting for her. Joe even thought of leaving her behind, telling Danny this, 'Let's leave her. She's going to take hours putting all her 'study' stuff back in her bag'. Danny gave out a laugh, almost loud but immediately goes quiet for no alert. "Right, we off for break?" Joe sighs in relief, finally wanting to get out of this hallway. Being seen by every person walking past by them.

"Sure." A brief silence as all three walk out, without thinking on where they should go next, food or sports. "What are we doing first?" Asked Danny. Danny has agreed to show them new skills he has came up with when it comes to playing football. What he has shown before the PE lesson began surprised them. Says the fact that a few years ago, he's popular because of it. The only friends he had in his old school were his football mates.

They all stop walking. Not for long, just needing to stop when wanting to say something. Usually makes it hard for them to say what they want to say when walking. As well as the sounds they would mostly hear far away or close by. Joe usually calls it the background noise. Easy and loud to hear but hard when it comes to conversation. "There's a football field outside. Not a lot of guys use it. Mostly using the basketball court as their football playground." Making Danny look at him with a jump.

"I'm sorry what?" Looking at him back, knowing the confusion getting to him.

"Basketball court. Now everyone's football playground. People in this school don't play basketball anymore. Not sure why, the school should have thought about it. Thought about making some changes to it. But how should I say this?" Coming up with a word to call this court by.

"They're lazy assholes." Finishing the sentence for him, coming with Danny trying to hide his laugh, not wanting to embarrass Joe much further.

He looks at Amy, hating it when she finishes his sentences. Ruins the mood for him but she doesn't see it that way. More of her way to get inside his nerves. "Fucking hell Amy. You always know what to say after me." Cannot deny on that. Whatever he wanted to say, it could have been good but it's terribly executed. She knows that from the day they met and her finishing it for himusually makes it better for herself and the rest.

"Okay. Let's go so that I can eat afterwards. Thankfully I'm not so hungry yet but this game is going to make me hungry." His friends aren't hungry so bad but playing football does increase their appetite.

Walking out of the classroom, outside, being filled with students walking around. All together, on their lunch breaks. All years have the same time for their lunch breaks. However, their breaks would vary on when their lessons actually begin. The early years, where the trio are in, usually have their breaks finished at an early time, leaving the later years from Year 10 and 11 at the earliest time. One that frightens Joe to the core.
