The Bad Boy Next Door

Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - I need a chapstick...

Why do I feel like the world is just a place for bullies to pick on scrawny kids? Why can't the world just be nice for once. Why is it when a kid does one thing wrong they get picked on for most of their life, Why is it when a popular gets shunned they're still the talk of the town, school, and even at family barbecues.

Well the reason why I ask these is because thats what happened today.

I walk into school with a smile on my face, wearing the same thing i wore to the mall. ( Back in chapter 3 ) I got stares, whispers about me, even some claiming they already, as they call it 'Tapped That' I honestly feel like its Australia all over again. But the more embarrassing thing is, at recess today they were serving spaghetti, recipe for disaster? I think yes. While i was walking to my table Chelsea's boyfriend Cody the jock of the school only normal for them to be together, He tripped me and Chelsea laughed, not only the whole school laughed but i fell and dropped my spaghetti all over Chelsea and myself. I apologised to her a thousand times, she doesn't care. She told the principle i done it on purpose He believed her. pfft dumb asses.

So that leads me to where I am now. In the principles office smelling like homemade spaghetti with Chelsea glaring at the side of my head. Mr Evans looking between us two like we aliens. No one has spoken since we got here and its freaking me out.

"Soo.... Am I gonna get punished or are we just gonna stare at each other?"

That was me speaking, I don't want to be in here for another minute. I doubt Chelsea will get in trouble so she just sits there with a smug smile on her face, oh how i wish I could wipe it off along with her eyebrows.

"Although you two girls have been honour students this is just un acceptable and matters will need to be taken. As for Brittany, You will only have one afternoon detention and thats it because your new and I doubt this has ever happened and as for you Chelsea you will not only be having detention twice a week for two weeks you will have School community service, This has happened many times before" Mr Evans says sharply. Wow one detention for me yes but I wish i could show him what really happened, maybe I should tell him.

"Actually sir, It was her fault... Her boyfriend Cody tripped me on purpose and i dropped my food on her and me" I feel like if I want to get on her good side, i will get her boyfriend in trouble. She just looks at me like a fucked up weirdo, trust me.. I think I am a weirdo.

"Well because of that Chelsea will have detention for 1 day as for you Brittany you will also have one detention and for Cody.. I will speak to him later. I called your parents and told them and they will be outside waiting so yous can get cleaned up"

We both nod and I'm the first to walk out. I quickly run dodging the hall monitor and wait for my mum outside.

She finally turns up and stops right in front of me.

On the way home is quiet and I don't like it, I think shes thinking and thats not good.

"I was in the middle of a case Brittany. And to hear my daughter was in trouble for a food fight on her second week of school is outrageous, I had to lie to my boss saying you had a nervous break down. Lucky he believed me or else i would have been fired"

I wish dad was here so he could been the one to pick me up. I feel like she hates me, i think she does. I think she blames us kids for our fathers disappearance.  

"Mum I'm real.." she cuts me off as soon as i speak

"I don't want to hear it, for this your grounded for a week, No friends except Chloe I love that girl and no tv, Got it"
