As soon as I was dismissed from science after blowing up a plug socket out of boredom I headed to meet Matt outside of G04. I walked the corridor in a hurry, taking no note of the people around me until Dom grabbed me by the arm.
"hi" I smiled up at him.
"hey" he replied looking in a daze. "what lesson you off to?" he asked probably wondering why I was heading in the direction of a class id never had a lesson in before.
" history" I replied.
"I thought you had history on a Wednesday?" he questioned.
" I do, but my tutor put me in charge of showing a new boy around" I lied.
"Ok then" he put his arms around my waist " oh and by the way is it ok if Tom hangs around with us at break, you know on our usual table?"
"sure" I replied as I quite enjoyed Toms company, he was one of Dom's less arrogant friends.
"great." he replied smiling and unwrapping his hands from my waist "I'll see you at break"
Now having even less time to walk Matt to music I carried on my way down the hallway only a few doors from Matts history class.
"Nirvana!" I heard Dom shout after me. I turned my head over my shoulder.
" I LOVE YOU!" he shouted. I smiled.
When I approached G04 I saw Matt standing by the doorway, looking down at the floor and examining his scruffy black converse.
"Matt" I called.
"oh hi" he replied starting to walk towards me.
" we best be off - sorry I was late someone stopped me in the hallway" I explained.
"no problem" he smiled as we started walking to our class.
"how was history?" I asked, expecting an obvious answer.
"shit" he replied.
"thought so" I laughed "at least music will be good" I added trying to carry on our small talk.
"yeh" he answered " I'm actually quite looking forward to it".

When we reached Mr Benningtons classroom we were at least a few minutes late. I knocked on the door and walked in with Matt trailing behind me.
"we're sorry we're late sir" I apologised.
"not a problem" Mr Bennington replied " take a seat"
I squeezed past desks to sit down in my space near the window while Mr Bennington examined the new boy standing in his doorway.
"ah, you must be.." he read the screen of his computer, leaning in close "...Matt is it?"
"yes sir, I'm new" Matt answered timidly.
"urm.." Mr Bennington examined the pupils in his classroom "... take a seat next to Chris"
Mr Bennington pointed in the direction of the empty seat beside Chris Wholstenholme as Matt made his way to the back of the classroom dragging his bag along the floor as he shuffled through the tight gaps between desks. I glanced over to Chris' table and examined him as I hadn't really taken any notice of the lone boy at the back of the classroom before. He looked up to Matt as he put his backpack under the desk and smiled at him, his brown curls swaying with the wind from the open window. Matt started to make conversation with Chris while I looked out of the window with my head on my hands deep in thought...
