Steward's POV:
"Move outta the way you twat." A junior pushed me as he spat on my 5 dollar shoes.

Where do you even get 5 dollar shoes?

"Sorry." I muttered, holding my books against my chest as I hurried downstairs.

I was still getting used to the rooms and how they were arranged.

Gonna be late again.
Gonna be late again.
Gonna be late again.
I chanted in my head like it was a ritual.

"There!" I said quickly, rushing to the other side of the hall.
Thank god.

Just when I was about to enter, I had a urge that my lungs was about to pop out. It was a familiar feeling, and my brain knew what was coming.

Meanwhile, I had no idea.

Suddenly, a pain crashed against my cheek and my teeth as I realized I've come colliding with the dirty floor and a feet next to me.

"Hah, what a loser." The guy withdrew his foot and entered the classroom next to mine.

I laid there for a few seconds, my body still kind of numb from the fall.

I dusted myself off and shook my head.
Get it together.

At least I was on time.
I walked in my Chemistry Class and sat down. Only a few people had arrived. It contained of mostly Asians; they were sharing notes.

They paid no attention to me thank god.

I took a quick glance in my plastic bag, now almost half ripped.

I better get a new one soon.

Paper paper paper, oh here it is.

Hm pencil, pencil, oh fuck.
Forgot it. Dammit how?

Looking around, I spotted a pencil two seats behind me, so fresh and new I couldn't resist.

I jumped off, almost too fast, and the desk wobbled as I tried to hold it down.

I literally tiptoed to the desk, hovered over the perfect, bright #2 pencil.
Also adding a pedophile face while do so.

Two girls looked at me with disgust but I shook it off. I quickly snatched the pencil, and danced to my seat.

Oh pretty pencil. Pretty. Pretty. PWEEETTTYYYY!!

"PRETTTTTYYYY!"
I shouted.

Everyone turned their stares to me in confusion and giggled.

My face started to burn. Turns out I was thinking out loud.

"Everybody here stinks!" Someone yelled abruptly, causing the attention on me to go to them instead.

It was a manly voice—that is, everyone's voice is manly these days.

"Teacher you also stink!" He hollered grinning, while making wavy motions with his hand.

The male teacher gave him a glare and chuckled.

I guess they were pretty close. Not like some English teacher I know.

DETENTION.
I shuddered at the memory.

The guy returned the smile but frowned when he looked at his desk.

Wait.

He was one, two...TWO desks before me and he....
I gasped and started whistling ferociously.
