Mute [Andley]

Chapter Four: Drop Out

The next day came around quickly, Andy and Ashley couldn't wait for school. Then they could finally see each other again. Yes, they had only been apart for a couple of hours, but they still missed each other ever so much.
Andy had spent the whole night thinking about him. He couldn't stop, they texted each other all night saying simple things like 'Your pretty' and 'Love you'
Ashley had a plan, a great one at that. It's to make him sing in front of the school, by accident or not, he didn't care, he loved his voice.
Ashley sat alone in form, waiting for the boy of his dreams to turn up, he wanted to ask him today, ask him to be his. Andy slowly walked in, smiling when he saw the long haired boy. He sat next to him when the teacher came in.
"Andy, come here," Sir asked, "There's a little problem, it seems that your school work is under the Harrods standards. Now you have two choices you either get held back a year or, with great disappointment, you could leave school by dropping out."
Andy thought long and hard about his decision, he had all already gone through so much of school he couldn't be arsed to do anymore. Finally he came to the realisation he wanted to drop out of school.
Andy wrote on the board slowly ' can I drop out of school.'
Sir replied to him, telling him he could and all he need to do, is go to the office.
Andy walked to the office, when he got there he had a stack of paper work to fill out.
Ashley overheard the conversation, his plans were ruined all of his great time thinking of a plan wasted, because now his best friend isn't going to be there to make it happen.
