Chapter 7
I stepped into the classroom Thursday morning with drowsiness in my eyes.
Of course I went to bed early last night but at 3 Ashton's loud music in his room burst my eardrums.
Our room was next door to each other while mom's were downstairs and soundproof so she wasn't bothered by the songs.
The life of an adult!
I went to bed 5:45 and woke up back 7.
This person calls himself my brother?
"You're late miss Jennings" Mr Rochester spoke sternly "detention!!"
Ugh
I sighed and went to my seat not responding as I didn't give a care in the world.
As class went on I slept but was rudely awoken by Lorayla my benchmate.
Only God knows how much I wanted to slap her right now.
We haven't spoken much to each other since we met but she has the decency to wake me up?!
Lunch time came and as I sat with Avery I thought of excuses to give mom so I could go to 'tutor classes' peacefully.
Avery kept chatting about what happened in bio with their teacher but I didn't hear a word as I blocked her out.
"Lexi,are you even listening?" Ave asked and looked at me crossed eyed.
"No?" I said more like a question "but I need you to cover up for me" I quickly stated before she in turn isolate me.
"You really think I should listen to you now?"
"No..but c'mon Ave I really need your assistance"I pleaded
"K..fine"
"Yaay..so you already now I'm getting tutored and all"
"Yeah by Fi.."
"Do not say his name" I cut in
"Kay..we'll just refer to him as... Powder."
What the.."Why powder?..how are they connected?" I questioned confusedly
"Cause he's soft,cool and smoothing....as powder..I guess"
How did she know that?
Typical Avery"Okay then...anyways I need an excuse to give mum if she asks about my late entrance..so I was thinking I call her with your phone and explain that I'll be staying at yours for a while every evening..you'll be there to back me up and make it seem truthful okay?"
"Wow you are lying to your mother?" She questions with an unbelievable look.
"Uh..um"I stuttered and she said
"Oh momma's little good girl's gone,daddy's little princess has finally broken..I'm soo proud of you"Uh..did I expect any better?
No
That is Avery for me"Thank you for making me feel as guilty as ever"
" You're most welcome" she replied sarcastically
Ping
PingThe bell rung signalling the end of lunch and gladly I didn't see the old dickhead Finn or as Ave says..Powder.
School rolled by and was now over.
I made my way to the detention room.
"Nice to see you ms Jennings" Mr Rochester said sarcastically while I donned my fake smile making it obvious to him.
As I sat for the 1 hour detention I took out my books to do my assignments.
A good way to spend my time.I heard my phone vibrate in my pocket and as I'm not a social person I wondered who could be texting me at this point.
I suddenly remembered that I didn't inform Avery about my detention.
"Uh..Mr Rochester"I started nervously "can I tell my mom that I have detention so I will be home a little late"
I waited for a response until hesitantly he whispered a 'sure'.
I unlocked my cellphone and saw several texts which was from both Finn and Avery.
Avery
Lexi where are you?
Lexi pick up your damn phone
Lexi I'm not waiting one more second on you I'm going home
Ohk I waited but whatever you are doing please hurry
I silently laughed and replied
I'm in detention Ave you can go if you wanna I'll be fine
I received back a message from her
OK bye
The next texts were from Finn
Where are you?
You are late
I would surely appreciate you coming to the car park immediately!!
Lexi remember that I am the one doing you a favor so get your ass here now!!
Lexi I don't appreciate your tardiness will you please make your self available
There were a few more which I just scrolled through and replied
Finn I'm in detention so I won't be able to do the lessons today
I received a text shortly
Detention?!!
I'll be right there hang onWhat does he think he'll be able to do?
About 5 minutes later he appeared and asked Mr Rochester to end the detention which he surprisingly did.
I don't know how Finn is so powerful or whatever the hell that is but I can't believe Mr Rochester listened to his demand.
I'm freed.
"Listen pretty princess" Fimm started as we headed out "don't get yourself in anymore trouble cause I won't be saving you next time"
Saving me?
I could have served my detention.I wanted to argue but decided it was best to keep my mouth shut.
