Nicotine

Chapter2: Demon.. I mean Teacher

After my quick prayer I go to the front office to get my schedule and locker combination.

"Hi! You mist be and. Williams!" Says and over excited secretary.

"Please call me Nicotine." I practically beg.

"Okay Nicotine. I'm Ms. Hayes. Here's your schedule and locker combo! If you need anything else please don't hesitate to ask!" Says Ms. Hayes.

Her peppiness is starting to get to me, so I leave with out even knowing where any of my classes are.

My schedule reads:

1st period: Home room: room #121

2nd period: mathematics: room #152

3rd period: creative writing: room#122

Lunch

4th period: creative art: room #153

5th period: physical Ed: gym

So my 1st and 3rd period classes are right next to each other and so are my 2nd and 4th. Then gym and then I could finally go home.

I start to walk down a hallway and hope to find my class before it's over.

100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 121 this is it. I take a deep breath before I walk into the classroom.

I'm instantly met with 20 pairs of eyes looking at me.

The teacher turns and gives me a glare before she starts talking. "You must be Nicotine Williams." She says.

"That's m-" I say, or try to say.

"Well Ms. Williams, I do not accept tardiness." She interrupts

"Uhhhmm. Okay." I say to the demon.... I mean teacher.

"I'm Mrs. Jones. You may sit next to Lee. Lee raise your hand." She says

I look into the crowd of kids and slowly a guy in the vary bad raises his hand. He has his head in his desk and appears to be trying to sleep. I walk back and sit in the chair next to him. Then a girl in front of me turns around. She has fiery red hair, big blue eyes, and a pleasant smile.

"Hi. I'm Rachel." She says

"Nicotine." I say

"You just moved here right? From Cali?" Rachel says with a smile.

I tense up at the question. I wasn't ready to talk to anyone about where I moved from or why I moved.

"Yeah. I did. I'm sorry but how do you know that?" I ask.

She turns completely around, makes sure no one is paying any attention to us, then pulls her jacket sleeve up to reveal a black wrist band.

She's important to the gang. Maybe she could be my friend since she already knows about the gang.

"Don't worry." She says "I've been waiting for ages to finally have another girl to be friends with!"

I laugh at this. But as soon as I do Mrs. Jones looks at me and says "is there something funny Ms. Williams?"

"Nothing Demon... I mean-"
I say

shit. This is going to be bad.

Mrs. jones turns bright red. I swear you could have seen smoke coming out of her ears.

"MS. WILLIAM'S!! YOU HAVE DETENTION TODAY, AFTER SCHOOL" Mrs. Jones shouts.

What a great way to start the day. I thought as the bell to end home room rings
