Across the pond

The slut walk

Sam stood at his locker, organising his papers books and pens alphabetically and by colour. The hummed softly to himself happily, he loved organising things and finding the right spot for things.

"The girls are probably all gonna come in together right? I mean safety in numbers and all that" Benji said, stepping out of the locker next to him

"Probably" Sam closed his locker and re-opened it, testing to see if his books would fall over "it ain't really much of my business, but it's cool that they are doing it" Sam smiled, the only protest they did in his old school was when they tried to ban having chocolate in lunch boxes.

Nick put his phone in his locker "fucking thing is so slow" he sighed. He looked over at Sam "how's the locker decor going?" Sam smiled and stepped back, letting Nick look in "wow, colorful"

Sam smiled "thank you, I like to colour code, it's easy to know where things go" he fixed a lop sided pencil.

Matthew walked in front of the door dressed in a suit and red bow tie. He held a cane in one hand, Sam could tell he was deffinetly a theatre kid "Lady's and gentlemen, madams and monsieurs, be avenue the filthy tweenage girls of Bridgetown Middle present, the slut walk" Music seemed to fill the air as the girls swung open the doors and sauntered in wearing not very mutch between them, Jessi in the lead.

Suddenly the girls bursed into song

"Sluts. Don't need no man up in our business, don't need permission or forgiveness. We're gonna strut and stride you better step aside for the slut walk, slut walk." The hallway transformed into an orange red and yellow coloured hallway, with different doors where the lockers were

"There ain't no jive in our gyration, prepare to submit to slut nation. We're gonna show some skin the revaluation will begin with a slut walk, slut walk." Sam looked over at Nick, really confused

Suddenly the boys creeped down the hall in a group, their side was green and led by Andrew, they began to sing too '' You're fired up and filthy and we like it a lot, who knew that civil disobedience could be so hot?"

The girls covered themselves "keep it in your pants boys it's not for you!''

The boys look around "we thought you wanted our attention, wait now we're confused??'

"Being a cock tease is every woman's right!" Devin sang, Sam cocked his head

"Well not really-" Jessi tried to interject

"These feminists make my underwear tight" the stocky boy said, Sam rolled his eyes

"I think you're missing the point??" Jessi tried to interject again

"It's empowering to be jiggly hot and twerky" Lola sung, twerking

"What??" Jessi put her hands in the air

"I wanna baste you like a Thanksgiving turkey!" Jay sang, Sam crossed his arms

"Ok stop, Stop stop the music!" Jessi shouted, there was a few seconds before everyone stopped singing.

Sam looked at Nick again, "what the hell was that??" He whispered

"Hay that was fun, what just happened?" Andrew asked

"You guys are being discussing!" Jessi shouted

Jay was staring at her "so mutch skin! Uh sex uh! meat, sex meat" he whined like a dog and started rubbing up against nick, who wasn't impressed at all

"Ah, Jay! Jerk off already!" He hits him with a newspaper, making Jay run off on all fours like a animal

"Oh my god! You guys are like total animals!" Lola said

"Exactly!" Andrew agreed "That's what I have been saying, we're animals!"

"You're not animals, stop saying that!" Jessi said, getting frustrated

"Well why don't you stop telling me what I can and can't say!" Andrew grumped, crossing his arms

"How about stop being a creep!" Jessi yelled

"I'm not being a creep! You're the ones who got dressed up all sexy and then you get mad at us for calling you sexy it's like... What do you bitches want!!" Andrew shouted back

There were a lot of gasps both from the girls and the boys "bitches?" Devin whined

"Woh Woh Woh Andrew, their not bitches, their sluts!" Nick said, trying to help

"Oh god Nick no" Sam said quietly, wanting to be swallowed by the earth

"Don't call us sluts!" Jessi shouted

"But your calling yourselves sluts?" Nick said, confused

"We're allowed!!" Jessi yelled

"Look I'm just trying to be an ally to women!" Nick replied, making Sam smile, he was trying after all

"Why are you taking the girls side?" Andrew demanded

"Yeah! You're a pussy!" Jay sneard "I bet you have a pussy, let me see it?" He said, making Sam shake his head

"What a fucking asshole" Benji crossed his arms, Sam agreed

The dorr flew open and Missy walked into the hallway in her normal clothes, holding a picket sign that said 'dont step on our threads' she walked over "Am I late?"

"Yes, Missy" Devin spat "and you're not wearing the right clothes either!"

"Didn't you see my sign?'' Missy asked

"Who cares?? You're like a traitor to your gender!" Lola piles on

"Ok I will process that social pain on my own time, uh can I get any backup?" Missy asked, looking at Jessi for help

"I mean that is just what you wear every day, why do you always have to be such a goody-goody?" Jessi said

Sam looked at Nick "but isn't wearing what you want the point of this whole thing?" He whispered, Nick shrugged his shoulders

Missy started crying "I just wanted to be a part of this-"

"Ew, your crying now?" Devin asked

"Oh now she's yelling and she's crying, you know what. This might be my morning soda talking but fuck everybody!" He put his middle fingers up "I'm out of here" he began to walk away "and all the clocks in this school are showing different times!"

As Andrew stormed off the door this entire argument happened in front of opened and none other than Mr Liser walked out he tutted arrogantly "well well well, looks like the girls have gone wild as they say" he crosses his arms. Sam sighed

"We're protesting your sexist dress code!" Jessi spoke up

"Aand because of that guess what? You all just got yourselves detention after school, my classroom girls, do not change clothes" he pointed in. Sam grimaced, what a creep.

"We're not girls we're ladies" Lola said walking in, her heel slipped from beneath her and she filled her ankle and fell "fuck my cock sucking ankle!"

Sam stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked over to Nick "so.. dose this happen a lot?" He asked

"Pretty standard, uh we have math soon so we should probably go" Nick said trying to leave the area. Sam followed Nick to their classroom where Matthew was already sat, Sam and Nick sat near him. The class began and Sam stared at his paper, maths was never his strong suit.

Teto decided to make an appearance and started buzzing "they all know you're stupid"

"Ok? He don't need to be good at maths, he's always got a calculator on his phone!" Benji said batting her away

"You'll fail school and become a nobody!" Teto sat on his desk

"Hundreds of people fail maths and still get jobs" Sam reminded himself

This was going to go on for a while.
