Marnie's  POV -

By the time I actually get to school, I'm already at least an 1 hour late. I hold my head up high and stroll into the school gates and into the building.All the hallways are empty, since everyone is in class. I make my way to my locker. As promised, Tia has dropped off my schedule for me. Tia is my best friend, she's the only actual friend that I have. Most of the other girls hate me. Or as I like to say, are jealous of me. I grab my schedule and head to 'Maths' which is the first class listed. Maths sucks, it's like the worst subject ever. I roam the corridors for another 5 minutes trying to remember the correct room. Once I find it, I don't bother knocking, instead I slam the door open and stride inside with a little smirk on my face.
"MISS HAIDON!" Mr Plinkton Yells rather hoarsely.
"Yes?" I say innocently.
I look around the class, their faces are priceless. They all look like they've just seen me murder someone, I only slammed a damn door, Jesus.
Mr Plinkton already knows me, as he has taught me for several years, Can't guarantee I'm his favourite student though.
"Here." He says grouchily.
He tosses me a crumpled up algebraic worksheet, I take it and then go and take a seat at the back of the class.
As I sit down, i plonk my bag down on the desk and reach into my pocket, to take out a piece of gum to pop it into my mouth.
But just as I do so, the door slams open, startling me and causing me to drop the piece of gum on the floor.
Shit that was my last one. I think to myself,slightly pissed off.
As I look over to the door, a boy is leaning on the door frame with a smirk plastered on his face. The first thing I notice is his red spiky hair, Same like mine, but smothered in mousse. He must be new, never seen him around and If I did I think I'd remember. I was already intrigued by him, Red Hair, new boy , Late on the First Day, Slamming Doors, wow. Nothing major but still, compared to the rest of these boring fools,it's something. I look at him from top to bottom as he hobbles into the classroom. He's wearing a green army jacket kind of thing and has a striped cane stick with him to help him walk, it seems.
"Who are you?" Mr Plinkton asks rather rudely.
"Me Sir, well I'm Dinger." He says in a matter of factly tone.
"Right Dinger and your sure your in my class?" Mr Plinkton asks rather annoyed.
"Yes Sir, Absolutely."
"Well here, take this and take a seat." And with that Mr Plinkton tosses Dinger another copy of the lame worksheet. Dinger takes it and looks around for a seat, that's when I realise there's only 3 seats left. One next to me at the back, one right next to the door and then one right up at the front next to Plinkton. Not gonna lie, my seat was the best out of all of them, but that's why it's my seat heh. He'll probably Take the seat closest to the door.
Or at least that's what I thought, before I know it he's coming over towards me. Wha-? He can't sit next to me, no one ever sits next to me. What does he think he's playing at?
Mr Plinkton always likes to do Partner work and whoever sits next to you is your Partner. I always sit on my own, so I work on my own, even if I don't understand anything. I'm sorry but I'm not going to be sharing my elbow space with new boy here for the rest of the year. One lesson, maybe. But once you choose your seat, you can't move until next year. So just as he's about to sit down, I yank the chair away and allow him to fall on his bum. I look down at him and his cheeks are slightly red.
"OI, what was that for?!"
"You ain't sitting here." I say looking directly at him.
"What? Why not?" He says getting back up.
"Well cause you can't. This is my space. So Shoo." I tell him, with a little waving motion of my hand to get him to go away.
"Your space is only one seat. There are 2 seats. I'm one person, so I only take up one seat to. Do you know what 1+1 is ? It's 2. There are 2 of us so we fit perfectly. Now shut up you dimwit & move over!" He tells me, shoving my bag straight off the desk and causing it to land in a heap on the floor. The class breaks out in giggles and sniggers. This makes me even more furious.
" Listen Dingle. I don't kno-"
He cuts me off mid sentence only to say "No,you listen to me missy. The names Dinger. Might be abit difficult for your brain to pick up, but it's DING-ER. No dingle. Gottttt it?"
This causes the class to erupt into hysterical laughter and I don't think it's at his name.
Dinger gives me another one of his smirks and waits intently for my response.
Now I feel my cheeks burn red, just as red as my hair if that's even possible. I scowl at him, not knowing how to reply back. Just at that moment Mr Plinkton decides to get involved, must have sat back and enjoyed me get a taste of my own medicine as he would say.
"That's Enough you two. Dinger you've only been here 5 minutes and your already starting arguments with my other students an-" dinger interrupts him and says "I didn't do anythinggg, why's it me, always me, always dinger,sir." Dinger exclaims.
"Shut up Dinger. Let me finish." Mr Plinkton tells him sternly. "Marnie, why couldn't you just let him sit down? Huh?"
"Well, I always like to sit on my own." I simply state.
"Hahaha yeaaaaah Lonerrrr,as always." A voice shouts out. I instantly recognise it as the blonde bimbo Nicole. Nicole the biggest bitch there could ever be.
"Shut the fuck up Nicole, you irrelevant cow."
"Whatever Marnie. Your gonna be a loner for the rest of your pathetic life so.."
Before I can shoot her another insult, Mr Plinkton stops me.
"THAT IS ENOUGH. Marnie, Move up here to the front and Dinger you sit right there and don't cause anymore trouble. As for you Nicole, don't get involved in something that doesn't concern you."
The class goes silent, including Dinger & Nicole. Me, no way, how can he just boot me out of my seat?!
"What?! I ain't moving. He should be the one that has to move!" I protest pointing at Dinger.
"Well he's asking you to move, so get out of MY seat, Honey." He gives me a smug look and winks at me.
Okay that does it. I snatch my bag up from the ground and shove past him, surprisingly it causes him to stumble back to the ground. I give him a big smile and then take a step to the front towards my new seat. But just as I walk past him, I feel my legs get caught on something and within seconds I'm also on the ground. I turn towards Dinger, he's sitting on the ground waving his cane stick thingy in the air triumphantly.
"YOU IDIOT!" I yell.
I don't even get the chance to stand back up before Mr Plinkton is Dragging me out of the classroom and chucking my bag out with me. He slams the door on me and I can hear him even putting the lock on. He knows me well, last year I ended up throwing the chairs everywhere and almost cut open Nicole's head, sadly i missed. Dinger was lucky, if I had been in their for any longer, I swear I would've pounded his face in. I get up from the ground & check my watch. There's only 5 minutes left of lesson anyway. I might as well start to head off towards science. It should be a fun lesson, since the whole gang is there. Me, Joel, Tia, Kimberly, Bobby and Laine. Nicole will be there aswell but I can deal with her, she's in most of my classes anyway so I'm used to her. Who knew science could be so fun with all your buddy's there?
