Mark neatly done up his buttons to his small flannel shirt , dusting off his grey jeans . And wiping off a scuff on his black and white converse . His clothes fitting him like a glove

Jack on the other hand . He jumped into his all black trainers ( converse ) ( trainers - shoes it's British ) his dark blue jeans and a white shirt with black sleeves . Their first day of school together was today and they couldn't wait .

Marks hair neatly done . Jacks hair scruffy yet okay . Jack ran as fast as he could down the stairs. " Sèan ! Go get a jacket it's cold out !" His father shouted . Jack slowly walked back up the stairs and came down with a nice green jacket he loved the most . Jack hopped into the car . And strapped himself in . Waiting for his father to get in and take him and Mark to school . But first they had to get Mark .

Once Mark was in the car Mr. McLoughlin started asking questions " Mark ! How've you been boy?"
" good thank you . How have you been ?"
" very well . So polite . Sean ?" His father looked at Sean in the rear view mirror . " Mark are you looking forward to today !?"
" yes!of course ! " Sean's father dropped the boys off at the main office driving away to work . Sean grabbed marks wrist and ran as fast as he could to the doors . "Come on !" The younger boy giggled ( Jack just turned six btw ) "hello!" Jack said fairly loud . As the receptionist looked up at Mark and Jack . " why hello there , you must be Mark Fischbach and Sèan McLoughlin? Am I right ?" The pair nodded " in the flesh !" Sèan laughed . Mark simply yet shyly smiled " it's okay Hun . It's your first day here you'll get used to it ." Colbridge school . From 6 years to sixteen and you'll be straight to college or to do your thing . "The woman smiled . Sean groaned " okay can we get to class now !?" He asked " Sèan be polite !" Mark nudged him . " can we get to class now , please ?" Sèan corrected himself . " follow me boys " the lady grabbed two small books and in bold letters it had ' MARK.F' turns out it was their timetables. A large room filled with girls and boys were sat . All at desks. Two per table at least . There was an empty desk and two unoccupied seats" class welcome the new students Mark and Sean ."there was a round of " hellos " and one very loud " hi "
" I'm Miss. Baldwin . I shall be your teacher until July . When you all break up to go to your next year of school ." The blonde woman smiled . " your seats are there at the back . " the pair smiled at each other . And basically ran to the seats . Slinging their bags on the floor ." We shall start !" The teacher called . She handed out a grey grid paged book to everyone " you shall now write your name and  mathematics on the cover . Who knows how to spell 'mathematics' " many people put up their hands and they all failed . Jack giggled every time ." Sèan , do you know how to spell this word ?" He stopped laughing " um no "
" well stop laughing ." Mark raised his hand . On his book the word was scribbled down . Lined out and in bold letters where it should be was ' mathematics ' " Mark ? Do you know how to spell it?"
" yes !"
" well go on then "
" M-A-T-H-E-M-A-T-I-C-S"
" well done !"
Mark perked up in his seat with a smile ." You show off" Jack silently laughed .

Lunch

Mark sat himself down at the small bench on the playground . Well the 6 -10 year old playground . Jack came up behind him ." Boo!" The smaller boy laughed as Mark flinched ." Stop! Leave me alone !" Mark laughed . They pulled out their pack lunch boxes and started eating . " so whatcha got ?" Jack asked " uh peanut butter and jelly sandwiches an apple and some candy ." Mark decided to treat himself to a snack when his mother wasn't looking " what about you ?"
" I have . Chocolate spread sandwiches ( this is stuff I put in my lunch ) a banana and some candy ."
" swap sandwiches !" Mark smiled . The pair handed their sandwiches to one another and we're happy with what they were given . " I think this schools nice !" Mark smiled " I don't " Jack ,being as stubborn as he is , frowned . They chatted about the games Jack had got for his birthday the week before. " I have mortal combat . But my ma won't let me play it ."
" we could at my place . Bring it to school tomorrow cause my mom isn't working late ."
" totally ! " the pair laughed and munched happily on their food .
