Count on Me

Chapter 11

I stomped over to my locker and got my books for the first class. 

I suddenly felt a presence behind me,  so I quickly shut my locker and turned around. I was met by the face of a very excited looking Laurel.

"Hey girlfriend what's up " she said and I embraced her in a hug.

"The sky, how was your weekend?" I said mimicking her enthusiastic tone.

"Oh you know the usual, Saturday I went shopping with this wierd chick, and Sunday was quite chill. " she said with a chuckle.

"Wierd chick huh,  well I would love to meet her. "

"I think you might be familiar with her "she said with a smirk.

"Oh really?" I asked, and we both started breaking out in a fit of giggles.

I'm so glad Laurel and I got along nicely,  she is really an awesome person.

"So are you excited for today? "she asked once our giggles subsided.

"What's today?"

"The school field trip silly,  remember the one we applied for,  before the summer?"

"I wasn't here before summer remember."I said.

"Oh yeah,  that's a shame we're gonna miss you,  but I don't think you're the only one not going, there should be a few who aren't going  "She said giving me a pout.

What how did I not know about this, surely Tan would've made sure I was registered to go,  I had to call her.

"Hey,  I just have to go to the loo real quick see you later "I said,  but instead of replying she just started laughing.

"Hahaha..You. Said. Loo!!! "she said in between her laughter.

"What can I say I'm British " I called back to her on my way to the Restroom.

I quickly checked to make sure it was emtpy,  lucklily it was since school was just about to begin everyone will be on their way to class.  I slipped into one of the stalls, grabbed my phone and called Tanya,  Rrrriiinnngggg,Riiiiinnnnngggg, come on pick up,  Riiinnggg....

"Hey Row long time no hear,  aren't you supposed to be in school,  you better not be skipping missy,  because... "she started.

"No no none of that,  am I supposed to go on a school field trip?" I asked cutting her of.

"Not that I know of why? "

"Because Laurel's going on a fieldtrip and I know nothing about it. "

"Oh but I'm sure I can make a call,  so you can go. "

"She said they had to apply before the summer. "I said, but heard the bathroom door open and a group of girls giggling obnoxiously, "Sorry I gotta go. ......"

"Alright sweety I'll see what I can do,  and text you later ok?"

"Alright"I said and ended the conversation.

I exited the stall,  eager to get back to class before I got in some real trouble, I reached for the door handle,  when I heard an anoying voice behind me say : "Well, well well,  If it isn't the new girl,  who thinks she's good enough to  hang out with Calan?" I turned around to face,  who I recognized as Britany,  the school's queen bee,  who thinks the sun shines out of her arse.

"Excuse me? " I said taking a step toward her.

"You heard me,  bitch,  stay away from Calan, he's mine " she said trying to look intimidating,  and failing miserably.
