Max Hella Caulfield

A Week Off

Max's POV

I wake up the next morning to my loud ass alarm. Shut up! I reach over and hit my phone to turn it off. Gosh I'm so tired, but I have classes today and unfortunately I have to go to them... at least one of them this week. I can't just not show up. I worked way too hard to get into this school. I lean over to the other side of the bed and nudge Chloe. Chloe lets out a huge groan and shrugs my hand off. "Chloe I have to go to class." I say tapping her shoulder.

"Maaaaxxxxxx do you haaaaaave to?" Chloe groans.

"Yes Chloe. I haaaaave to." I say getting up from the bed and walking towards the desk with all of my clothes that I got yesterday. I start to put them on. I still wanted to keep the punk, hipster vibe going so I throw on high waisted light denim cut off shorts, a black, loose guns and roses tanktop which I loosely tucked into my shorts, a cream oversized knit cardigan, and my trustee pair of converse. My hair has gotten long enough to stick it in a messy bun, so I take my pink hair and tied it up. I throw my bag around my body, snap the thin studded bracelet on my arm, and go back to Chloe, who is lying dead on the bed. 

I took the remaining pillows that Chloe didn't wrap herself in and started hitting her with them. Chloe groans again, but louder this time. She turns her body so her back is no longer facing me and opens her eyes gently. She blinks a couple of times before she opened her eyes wide. "Fuck me, Max." Chloe said, looking me up and down. 

I tease, "Not just yet." I wink at her and Chloe quickly gets up from the bed and walks towards me. Without saying a word, she goes up to me and kisses me. Of course I kiss her back, but then I pull away. "Chloe I have to go to school now." 

Chloe pouts at me and tries to give me puppy dog eyes, hoping that I would skip school today. I shake my head and laugh at her over exaggerated facials. Chloe then gives up, "Ugh fine Max. I'll drive you to that shitpit." She grabs my hand and we exit the house.

---------------------------------------------

We pull up to Blackwell. I give Chloe a kiss before exiting. "I'll pick you up after school alright babe?" Chloe says, smiling at me.

I look at her and smile back. "Of course I'll see you then!"

Chloe drives away, I wrap my bag around my body and head up the stairs. I look down at my outfit and up to my hair... What is everyone going to think about this? I left school with a sweater and jeans and come back with pink hair and a guns and roses tanktop. I take a deep breath and enter my first class, photography.

I walk in and take my normal seat in the back. I don't think anyone recognized me... fuck I wouldn't either. Kate walked in and went up to where I was sitting. "Wow Max. I love your new look. You look great!" She says with a light smile.

Kate is the nicest person I know. Even if she wasn't serious, she still knows how to brighten someone's mood. I look down and giggle. "I spent a whole weekend with Chloe what do you expect?" I say jokingly. "And thank you Kate I'm still getting used to my hair..."

Kate takes a strand of my hair from my bangs in her hand, "I like it. I think it's a good color on you. Chloe definitely has a good eye!"

I blush at the sound of Chloe's name. "Yeah well she is my best friend. She has been ever since we were little!"

Kate started to look skeptical. "About that... Are you and---"

Before she could finish her sentence, I cut her off. I already knew what she was going to say. "Yeah Chloe and I...uhm.... are dating now." I say blushing, but also being cautious around Kate.

To my surprise, Kate hugged me. "It's okay Max! As long as you're happy, I'm happy for you!" I hugged her back. Thank God.

Kate walked back to her seat and, unfortunately, Victoria walks in. "Woah! Selfie whore has turned into a selfie dyke!" OH FUCK NO. I get up and get in Victoria's face. I try hard not to punch her where she was already injured... but she hella deserved it. My fist went up and quickly made contact with her nose. Victoria fell once again gripping her nose tightly. She screamed and everyone surrounded her with cameras and phones. I push myself through the crowd, noticing Kate covering her giggles with her hand, and lean down towards the girl bleeding on the floor. "Go fuck your selfie, Victoria."

Principal Wells rushes into the room and calls me to go to his office. "Maxine Caulfield. My office now."

I roll my eyes and mumbled as I walked out. "This class is hella bullshit."

I walk into his office and sit down. "Max. You have displayed such inappropriate behavior today on school grounds. That is not tolerated here at Blackwell Academy. What do you have to say for yourself?" Wells said. Whatever.

I spoke up with a blank face. "Victoria deserved it. She bullies me on a daily basis when I didn't even do anything to her to begin with," then I mumbled under my breath at the unamused face of Wells, "Someone needed to shut her up."

Principal Wells spoke up after looking at me disappointed for a few minutes. "Well, bullying isn't tolerated as well I shall speak to Miss Chase after school," It's about fucking time he starts being an actual principal, "but as for you Miss Caulfield... one week suspension." I get up from the chair and exit his office. I pull out my phone as I was exiting the main building.

Max- Chloe

Chloe- What's up Maxi-Pad??

Max- Guess who just got a week off from school? ;)

Chloe- OH HELLA YES! I'm coming right now!

Chloe- and NO EMOJI

I smile and put my phone away and head towards the parking lot.
