The Boys With Coloured Hair

Chapter 17

"No?" I questioned in astonishment.
"Yep!" She squealed.
"Well I've never heard your voice go that high." I laughed
"I know!"
"You do realise what this means though right?"
"Yeah. I gotta wear a dress. Big deal. It's only for the day."
"Yeah the whole day and you gotta talk in front of a large crowd."
"It's friends and family it'll be okay."
"Well I'm happy for you. He could've saved it till we got back but it was a nice surprise."
"It was for me to. Anyway let's celebrate." Liz bought out the champagne tray with party poppers confetti all that lot. This must've been really special to them.
"What's going on?" Mark asked walking through the door.
"Look!" Liz said showing her engagement ring.
"Aw congrats." Phil was in the corner smiling. It seemed that he didn't mind after that day of Liz to himself. We all danced the night away and it was time for everyone to head off home. That's right. They didn't live here. Yet. Mark did after he told his foster mom to ya know shove off. Why was Mark adopted? You're probably wondering. Because he was the oldest and my mom couldn't take what was going on in her life she kinda just put him up for adoption and on his 16th birthday wished for him to receive a sorry package but he never got it. He was too young to know why he was adopted and well was moved to America.

At school the next day Marchant was teaching maths and Liz was stuck. Surprisingly. None of us could help as she was ahead of us on the questions. And we were on the other side of the room. She had her hand up for ages and so did I. At the end of the lesson when sir saw we didn't do as much as he expected he put ALL 6 of us in detention. All 6 of us hand our hand up but he was to busy gawking over Kim! We messaged our parents explaining what happened and they were fuming and so were we. They told us to go to the detention and they'd come talk to the headmaster.

After school we went to our detention and guess who we saw? Kim. She had her phone out and sir was hovering above her. Why did he turn on us? I made sure my phone was on silent and guess what? I got ANOTHER detention from him.
"Why the hell does she have her phone out?" I yelled, patience wearing thin.
"She volunteered to stay after school that's why." He replied
"Volunteered" Jack laughed drawing air quotations.
"Jack!" He yelled slamming his hand on the desk making everyone jump. Except me.
"Man period?" I asked
"What?" He replied
"Am. You. On. Your. Man. Period?!" I asked again more slower.
"Not funny Lydia."
"I think it is." I laughed
"Same" Jack replied
"Me too" Dan and Phil sniggered
"So do I" Liz and Mark said. He walked off back to Kim. I've never seen him like this.
"You've changed!" I said to him
"So have you! No wonder your father killed himself it was probably due to you!" He yelled
"W-what?" I said nearly crying.
