It was a Monday, and I was currently in the library as it was my free class of the day. I decided to go to the library as it is always pretty quiet and I had a lot of homework that I hadn't even started yet so this was the best time to get it all over and done with.

While I was doing my Science homework, a chair at the table I was sitting at suddenly get's pulled out and someone sits right in front of me.

I looked up from my books to see Josh, the guy that always seems to be high yet none of the teachers say anything to him about it, which I didn't really understand.

"Hey man, Jace is still pretty angry about losing that race. I mean you completely humiliated him in front of all his friends and his girl.

"Oh yeah?" I simply said as I grabbed one of my science sheets, walking over to where all the science books are kept, looking to find the answers to some of these questions I have absolutely no clue about.

I don't really understand why Josh is talking to me, I have never had an actual conversation with him before, I think he's only talking to me because I won that race yesterday. He's that guy that doesn't really have any friends but he still follows random people around and they don't really tell him to leave them alone because he can be a funny guy.

Josh followed after me, into one of the aisles of books, "hey," he whispered to me, looking around to make sure nobody else was listening to him, "you get high? because I do." He smiled, "All the damn time! If you want you and I could go burn one after school, Australian mouth and Country mouth blazing."

I walked towards him, getting annoyed that he thought I would be interested in anything like that, "What makes you think I'm anything like you?" I asked him

"Hold on a second," He whispered as I walked away from him, although I was soon stopped again as he stepped out right in front of me, "This is what we call a take homer." He said, as he put the joint in my pocket.

I tried to protest but he wasn't having any of it, "Don't worry it's on the house, it's cool." He kept saying as he started to walk away from me, but I made sure to follow after him.

"Take this I don't want it!" I snapped as I took it out of my pocket and held it out for him to take.

Before Josh could reply, I heard someone shout, "Hey!" I looked towards where the voice was coming from, to see the librarian staring at me and the smoke in my hand, "What is that?" He asked as Josh walked away from us, leaving me to deal with this on my own. Dick.

"What's what?" I asked as I put my two hands behind my back, trying to act as casual as possible.

"That, in your hand." The librarian explained further, as he kept walking closer to me.

I knew that it was all going to look bad on me so I darted towards the boy's bathroom which was thankfully right beside where we were standing.

"Hey, Stop!" He shouted as he ran after me, although I was obviously a lot faster than he was.

I ran into one of the cubicles before the old man could catch me, throwing it into the toilet and flushing it just before the librarian arrived in the bath room.

I turned back around when I made sure that it was flushed, and that is how I ended up in the principals office with the Liberian, police officer and Principal Roger all staring at me.

"I won't tolerate it Luke, not in my school. What do you have to say for yourself?" Principal Rogers sighed as he looked at me with such disgust.
