"she's dead, mr bornihay. pick up the knife and kill yourself" mr feeny said to nicolas as he stood over vanessa, we were learning about shakespeare so feeny thought it would be a good idea to have us reinact the scenes. "come on mr feeny, you and i both know she's not really dead. may I please stab her a few times just to make sure?" nicolas said with a smirk on his face as vanessa sat up quickly, looking nicolas dead in the face. "hey! you touch me with that knife, you better kill me the first time" vanessa said with her finger now in his face "MR FEENY" nicolas yelled out terried as he looked at feeny for help."all right all right" feeny said walking over to them making me look back at shawn and cory "cory, cory" shawn whispered into cory's ear. as cory has his hand cupped around his right ear making me relize he is most definitely listening to the game. "what" cory whispered back making shawn look up at me before making at cory "whats the score" shawn asked making cory turn around "bottom of the third, two out" cory starts getting louder making feeny start walkover over to him "dykstrass on second, kruks on first, 3 and 2 to alton-" cory gets cut off by feenys hand pulling corys hand away from his ear, revealing his small headphone. "whats this mr matthews?" feeny asks making me look at shawn, who was holding in laugher just like me. "huh? what did you say mr feeny, you took my hearing aid" cory said putting his hand up to his ear as feeny pulled at the cord and puts the headphone in his ear. "smoltz delivers, dalton swings, oh he got a piece of that one. its a long drive deep to center, otis nixon back, back to the warning track, climbs up the wall, and..." feeny finish turning off the radio making cory burry his face in hands sighing "nooo" cory said disappointed as feebly started rapping the headphone wire around corys radio "mr matthews, omeo and jluliet is shakespeares ultimate testament of love between a man and a woman." feeny said folding his arms before being interrupted by a scream "help! help! mr feeny! help!" nicolas screamed while being pinned to the desk by vanessa, who's trying to stab him with the fake knife "HELP ME!" nicolas yelled out making feeny rush over, taking the knife from vanessa "ms kincaid, thank you for that, uh, vigorous interpretation." feeny said making vanessa shrug and smile as he placed the knife & radio on his desk, turning to cory "mr matthews, you do not listen to the ballgame in the middle of my class." feeny said to cory as he stood up "mr feeny, who cares about some guy who killed himself over some dumb girl?" cory said making feeny shake his head as he paced towards cory "the tragedy here, mr matthews, is not about a dumb girl or the boy who killed himself because of her. its about the all consuming power of love and the inevitability of its influence on each of our lives" feeny said making cory look at him with confusion "are you aware that im on eleven years old" cory said making feeny scoff "are" you aware that you have detention friday afternoon" feeny said looking straight at cory "no, actually I did not know that." cory said making feeny nod and head back to his desk

"well, mine's got fuzz" shawn said looking at his disgusting meat-type product "mine's got lips" cory said poking his lunch as nicolas took his lunch from a brown paper bag and then puts the bag aside.
