Changed.

Vhapter 8

I dreaded the dismissal bell because I knew hundreds of girls were waiting on the other side of the door. Waiting to catch a glimpse of Cody.

I gathered my things 5 minutes before the bell rang so I could come up with a game plan. I walked over to Cody's table and sat next to him.

"Alright Simpson you're gonna hold onto my bag as I drag you out. Got it?" I said. Cody nodded then got a smirk on his face. "Can't I hold your hand?" He asked. I slapped the back of his head then got up.

The bell rang cueing us to leave. When the door opened there were screams. Girls filed in to get a look at Cody. Mrs. Cassidy tried herding them away but they pushed past her.

Fuck it!

I grabbed Cody's hand, pulling him through the crowd. It was crowded in the hallway with all of the fangirls. I don't understand what's so cool about Cody. He's a jerk, irritating, annoying, loud, and has a bad case of ADHD.

The administrators got the girls under control as we exited main building. I released Cody's hand when we were outside. The walk to Mr. Trahan's was fairly short compared to the others.

When we walked in I noticed brooks already in class. I smiled when he looked at me.

"This must be Cody," Mr. T said. "Hi," Cody said, "I'm Cody Simpson."

Mr. T looked like neyo from the matrix and a dinosaur. He was so small and bony. I think he sill lives with his mother. He's the definition of a 30 year old virgin.

I walked away from Cody so I could sit with Brooks. I sat down then pulled out some animal crackers I had stuffed in my bag. I am always hungry in this class for some reason.

Brooks turned in his desk to face me as I played with the crackers. I picked up one and asked, "is this a bull?" Brooks laughed as said, "no I think that's a cow." He took it from my hands and bit the head off. I picked up a donkey and held it up to Brooke's face. "This looks like you," I said. "How?" He asked. "Well for one it has ears at the front that looks like your quiff and idk it just looks like you," I said.

"Alright class let's get started," Mr. T said.

Brooks turned around and Cody took the seat next to me.

"So today is open floor day. For those who don't know, this means we talk about a certain topic openly," Mr. T said, "first topic is do you believe you should do everything you're told?"

Some students said yes but I said no.

"Why's that Kaitlynn?" Mr. T said.

I took a deep breath then said, "I mean I think you should listen but sometimes you just have to say no. You should say no if you don't fully believe in why you're being told to do."

"What if you don't have a choice?" Cody asked being annoying. "You always have a choice," I said.

"Now Cody in your profession I'm sure you've had to miss out on stuff to make an appearance but not wanted to. What would happen if you were to say that you didn't want to go even though you're being told you have to go?" Mr. T asked.

Cody thought for a second and got a serious face. "When I moved to America and signed my contract I knew that I was going to have to give up a lot of things. So I can't say that 'oh it's my friends birthday so I can't do this show sorry.' Yea it sucks not being able to go out and do things with friends. But if I was to say no I'm doing the show or the appearance then I'd probably get dropped or in trouble," he said.

Cody was right. If he was to say no to his management then he would get fired and have to move back home. But then again he is 17 and he needs space away from his career.

I started to get mad so I said, "you don't always have to listen to them. You have choices Cody. So what if they get a little pissed off. No one can make you do something you don't want to do."

"What if someone held a gun to your head and said 'if you don't do this then I will kill you and your family'," Mr. T cut in, "what I'm trying to get at is that in the holocaust you didn't have a choice. Don't say you do because when your back is against the wall, you would listen to the SS."

Well damn.

I couldn't really pay attention during the rest of class because I was thinking about what Cody said. He really didn't have much of a social life with friends. Yea he's traveled like everywhere but he didn't have real friends with him.

The bell rang for fifth period scaring me half to death.

"I'll see you at lunch," brooks said. "See you then," I said.

Cody and I walked to fifth period which was back inside the chaotic building. I reached behind me and grabbed a hold of Cody's hand so I could guide him through the students.

We finally reached the classroom. I went to sit down in my normal seat that was next to my homegirl Morgan.

"You look irritated," she said. I looked at her and nodded. "I'm tired of all the screaming girls. It's like being back on your with him," I said.

Cody sat down at the back of the row next to this girl named Brianna. I didn't really like Brianna personally. She just talked to fast and was just plain annoying.

But Cody seemed to be all drooling over her. Stupid slut.

Whoa wait. Is someone jealous?

What?! HAHAHAHAHA no!

Yes you are! You is a jealous mother fucker!

I am not! I couldn't care less about the hoes he sleeps with.

Denial.

Cody noticed me looking at him so I turned back around.

I kept staring at the clock hoping for the lunch bell to ring early. C'mon just ring already!

RIIIINNNNNGGGGG

I bolted up from my seat. "Kaitlynn wait up!" Cody yelled. I stopped and turned on my heels. "What?" I said flatly. "Can I sit with you?" He asked. "Of course you can," Morgan said walking up to us.

~~~~

I was in the middle of eating the sandwich my mom made me when 5 girls came up to Cody. Melanie found is and sat down next to me. Soon Brianna sat down across from us and started talking to Cody.

Then at least 15 girls were at our table.

"So are you two dating?" Brianna asked.

I put my food down and said, "no." She flipped her hair from her shoulder and leaned closer. "Then why are you here?" She asked.

Beat the bitch.

"Excuse me but mother bitches like you aren't welcome her," Melanie said.

Melanie started to go off but I told her to stop. I gathered up my stuff and stood up. "You're right. I don't know why I'm here," I said.

I walked off while Cody was completely oblivious to what was going on.

I knew this would happen. Cody has to ruin everything!

I sat outside alone under a tree listening to music and on twitter. I had reactivated my twitter account and planned to get in contact with Jess. I dm'd her my number and told her to call me ASAP.

Someone's hands ripped my earphones put just as ed Sheeran was screaming in give me love. "Hey what the he- oh hey brooks," I said. I was actually expecting Cody at this point. Brooks sat down next to me and rested his head on the tree trunk. "So I saw what happened," brooks said. He placed his hand on my knee. "I'm sorry," he said. "It's fine," I said, "I mean they're perfect for each other. Cody is a bitch and so is she." Brooks laughed then said, "I'll agree that Brianna is a bitch but I don't think Cody is. I have no reason to right now."

Well he is right. "I understand," I said. "Good so uh want me to walk you back to class?" Brooks asked. "Sure," I said.

And for the rest of the school day I didn't speak a word to Cody.

I was happy when the final dismissal bell rang because now I can go home and be a hobbit in my room.
