He was coming home

19

Today has not been fun at all

We got lectures after lectures after lectures about framing the principal, we did not frame him, besides from me putting Gem's phone in his pocket but he had that coming, and about calling his wife crazy and getting her arrested as we, she had that coming, they probably wouldn't have arrested her if she had just left me alone and she was definitely crazy

The only teacher who seemed very happy was Ms Edwards, no need to explain that

And she gave us two more weeks to study for the big exam we are having

"Mira, could you please stay after class?" Ms Edwards requests politely as everyone is starting to pack up and I slump in my seat, I'm going to be in trouble again

I really don't remember doing anything lately

Maybe it's about the prank thing in year seven, someone locked all the teachers in the offices and then pulled the fire alarm

I might have helped with that

You see, we were thirteen and even though we were the best at pranks and things like that we couldn't stop it from spiraling out of control

Like there was actually a fire, a big one too, one of the teachers is still in hospital because if it, don't worry nobody liked her, not even her fellow teachers or her family or her friends and especially not her husband and kids

They caught who set the schooling fire, his name was Bob, you could tell by his name that he did it but they never caught who locked the teachers I their offices and so on or who was in charge

But if you think about it we actually saved the teachers, since we alerted the firemen people before it even started, and that you can thank me for that because the original plan was just to lock them in their offices but I suggested triggering the fire alarm

So anyway, gotten completely off track now but anyway

Maybe it's about the prank we pulled last year which also ended badly

We were just going to have all the toilets break down and squirt all the water out into people but we managed to flood the school....but it put out the fire in the science labs, so we sort of saved the school again and the school had to be shut down for a month

Finally the bell rings telling me I can finally find out why I need to stay behind

Once every student has removed themselves from the room, I walk up to wear Ms Edwards is sitting

"You wanted to see me?" I say and she looks up and smiles at me

I am so in deep trouble, teachers only smile like that when they are about to punish someone

"I just needed to tell you that I'm coming over tonight, I have something to announce" she says

So I'm not in trouble? I'm so confused right now

"Okay, so I can go now?" I ask

"Yes, unless you have anything you would like to confess?" She replies

"No...but you know in year seven, that prank with the fire alarm, locking you in your offices, want to know who was in charge?" I ask

"Yes" she replies looking at me

"Kelly, I mean I helped, by coming up with the idea of triggering the fire alarm, so you should really thank me, because the firemen got here sooner and got you all out and by the way I didn't think that we should lock you guys in your offices but everyone else thought we should, so, um, yeah" I tell her and she laughs

"Well Kelly will be dealt with tomorrow, see you tonight" she tells me ushering me out before I could expose anymore secrets

Like who keeps vandalizing the posters with the ex-principals head on it (I might have started that)

To my surprise Nathan is standing by my locker waiting for me

I give him a quick kiss before opening a locker before getting what I need

"I'm driving you home" Nathan says and I nod

"You can drive?" I ask him teasingly

"Yes, unlike you" he retorts

I cross my arms and pout at him

"That's not nice" I say to him

"You sound like a three year old" he comments and I stick my tongue out at him

"And you act like one too" he adds and I slap him

"So can I meet your parents?" I ask him

"No" he says simply

"Why not?" I ask him

"Because I haven't met yours yet" he answers, I didn't know you had to meet them in the right order or something

"Yes you have you've been at my house at least three times now" I reply siting up straighter, starting to think he's trying to avoid it for some reason

"Not really, I've seen him but I've never officially met him" Nathan points out

"What does it matter? Why can't we just go and give your parents a quick visit?" I ask, sounding a bit whiny

"No! Alright" he snaps

"Gosh, I was just asking" I mutter, we don't talk for the rest of trip

He's so hiding something

"See you tomorrow" he says as I open my door

"Yea, see you" I say softly

I hadn't even got to the gate when I heard the yelling

What is going on in there, minor sure who the women is but I know one of them is my dad

When I look back Nathan is already gone

So now I have two things on my list

1. Find out what Nathan is hiding
2. Eavesdrop on the incredibly loud fight going on inside my house

The second one shouldn't be too hard

"You cannot just waltz inherent and expect us to be happy t see and you and that you cannot take my daughter away!" Dad shouts at the mysterious women

It's about me, I should have known

"She's my daughter too!" The women shouts back, so he's fighting with my mother, this will be interesting

"You never seemed to want her or care about her! You just left!" Dad yells do you think I should interrupt them?
