Give me a break, don't break me

Chapter 3

I swear, this day went to slowly it was like the whole world was on slow-mo.
When it came to first break, I decided Jessica should spend some time with the other girls, to get to know them a bit more.
As soon as the bell went I raced out of class, and after Jack.
"How was maths?" I teased.
"Oh, it was so fun. Funnest thing ever." He commented, sarcasm dripping from his voice.
"Well can't have been that fun!" I declared.
"And whys that?" Jack questioned.
I put my chin in the air, straightening up to get as tall as I would go.
"Because I wasn't there!" I boasted, jokingly. Tossing my hair over my shoulder, pretended to be girly. "Plus, you can't have learnt that much; funnest is not a word dingbat." I pointed out.
"Neither, is dingbat. But thanks anyway Einstein." He mocked. "Besides it was a maths lesson, not English."
"Yes and Einstein was scientist, not a literature Professor!" I answered.
"Whatever Einste-" Jack paused in mid-sentence, thinking of something else to say. I put my face in front of his, raising my eyebrows. His face lightened up.
"Whatever, dingbat." Jack underlined that he had won the conversation.
We laughed the rest of our way out to break.
We walked around the edge of the tennis courts as we spoke.
"So what's this Jessica girl like? Nice?" Jack asked. Mouth full of chocolate he'd smuggled in from his desk. I swear he has a whole chocolate factory in there.
Lucky Poo.
"Yeah, really nice, she's pretty too." I glanced at the chocolate bar which was in his hand. "Her hair looks like chocolate." I sighed.
Jack stopped eating and looked over to where Jessica was standing, as if hair was really made of chocolate at he was really able to eat it. I laughed at his addictive reaction.
Boys.
"Yeah she's nice." I managed to say. Out of breath from laughing so much.
Jack finished the rest of his chocolate bar, and shoved the wrapper in his pocket.
I scanned the playing fields, until I spotted the other boys, they were playing Man-Hunt.
"Come on!" I grabbed Jacks arm and dragged him to where the other boys were. A group of year seven boys came over, to me and Jack laughing.
Oh god.
One of them stepped forward. "Hey Jack? Where are you taking you girlfriend?" The group laughed. I know these boys where younger than us, but they were much bigger than us, and we were out numbered.
"Shut up." Jack warned through clenched teeth.
"Oh no!" Another boy piped up. "He's angry we better back off!" They said with a clear note of unfriendly sarcasm. I stepped forward.
"Leave. Him. Alone." I shot.
"No! Stay off my Jacky! Don't touch my boyfriend!" The first one squealed pathetically.
"Hey, lay off. Stop with the childish comments!" I sounded stupid.
"Sorry miss bossy boots!" The boy sneered.
Hey the nicknames are my thing.
Mine.
"Go away, ... Uh ... Weed-brain!"
Sometimes I wish I would shut up.
The boys exploded in fits of laughter. Then they moved over to Jack, deciding he was the weaker target.
"So where are you taking you girlfriend Jacky?" They cornered him.
"Why don't you keep your nose on your face and not in other people's business." I retorted.
"Okay, no need to get Larry, just having a little fun!" They sniggered.
James popped up in front of Jack. Taking the humorous approach on the situation. "Hmmm, if this is your idea of fun, you need to get a life!" He spoke calmly.
"Oh my god! Jack is gay! He's been cheating on you!" They laughed so much I thought they would never stop. I considered walking away, but James spoke up.
"Well it's clear you don't have a great way with the ladies either." He glanced at me. "So you can talk."
They all stopped laughing and looked at the 'ringleader' for some mean comeback to laugh at.
"Not so funny now, are you?" I quipped.
"No one talks to me like that." Mr ringleader stepped forward, pointing a finger in my face."
"Sorry mate but it's a free country!" I wanted to be finished with these sados. "Come on, Jack, James lets go play Man-Hunt, I want to get away from these losers, they smell."
"Losers is the right word. They would certainly lose Man-Hunt."
"And why is that, James?" I asked keenly, I could see where he was going with this.
"Because you could track them so easily by there cent...no stench." James snickered.
I laughed.
"Yeah, the stench of all the rubbish that comes out of their mouths." James said.
"Not that you would want to." Jack added.
The boy from the group stepped up, refusing to not get the last say. To let us win. "Yeah that's right, run away now! Wimps!" But none of his friends were laughing.
"Ooooooh! Burn!" I teased.
"Yes we just got out DONE MAN!" Jack, nudged me and James.
"That's it Jack run of with your girlfriend and boyfriend."
God this guy just couldn't get enough!
"Whatever floats your boat mate!" All three of us winked and popped a thumbs up at the boy.
We strutted away, laughing.
Who's laughing now weed-brain?
