Chapter 4

The principal narrowed his eyes at Anna and I.

His mustache still had a little bit of macaroni cheese in it.

There was also a red stain on his shoulder.

"Nice to see you again Anna," he said. Anna uncomfortably squirmed in her seat. "I guess so," she mumbled.

He cleared his throat.

"Um Madeline I'm surprised to see you here," he said, but it sounded more like a question.

Madeline's pale green eyes widened in fear. "S-sir I re-really w-wasn't i-involved I I swear." Madeline blurted out. "A-are you g-g-going to c-call my m-mom?" she whispered. The principal raised his thick eyebrow.

"We will see Ms.Brooks" he stated formally.

Madeline's wide eyes grew wider, and tears started to stream down her mashed potatoed face.

He showed no expression and turned to Chloe.

"Wow Ms.Garcia long time no see, I thought I told you to stay out of trouble this morning," he raged.

"I guess I just don’t like listening to you.” Chloe smirked.He glared at her, and then cleared his throat. "You know Ms.Garcia violence is never the answer," he stated.

"Hey! She got milk and green beans on my tank top and scarf! The. Bitch. Deserved. It" she exclaimed.

"Language!" he shouted.

"Yeah whatever," Chloe mumbled she continued picking her nails.

I watched as Chloe, polo boy and the rest of the kids race out of the classroom.

I poked Anna's sleeping body. And she joltsup with a scared expression, then when she saw me her face turns mad.

"What the heck Bella!" Her eyes searched my face for an explanation.

"It's time for lunch Anna." I sang.

I grabbed her books and rushed out the room. I turned the corner  looking for the café.

I looked over my shoulder and found Anna racing to me, probably 2 feet away from me. I stuck my tongue out.

Anna stopped running and her eyes widened.

"Stop running bella!" Anna cupped her hands to shout.

I raised my eyebrows.

And turned around.

And came nose to nose with Carly.

Or really feet to nose. Somehow, Carly ended up on the floor.

How?

The world may never know.

"Aahhhhhhh look what you did to my jeans! You-you bitch!" She squealed, she kept trying to get up but kept on failing.

I glanced at her white jeans. Now they had a noticeable grey footprint on them.

A giggle escaped my lips. She glared at me.

Then bob cut and brunette showed up, they helped her to her feet, while Carly kept on complaining and wailing.

I took the opportunity to walk away cautiously then skipping to the cafe.
