The Boys With Coloured Hair #2

Chapter 3

The next day I still felt a little weak but I still went to school. I'm a great student. Kinda. Anyway me, Liz and Ella got changed and caught the bus to school. First lesson was English. We had a new teacher by the looks of it as his name was on the board and he looked a little nervous. I was seated by Jack. Liz was by Dan. Ella by Phil. Kim by Mark.
"My name is Mr Early." The teacher smiled. I saw Kim start fidgeting in her seat. I asked if she was okay but her gaze was on Early. After lesson had ended Kim stayed behind.
"She should be going to Mr Marchant's room" Liz said puzzled. I shrugged and Liz took me on a tour around the school.
"Oh by the way the winter dance is next week!" Liz squealed
"Lemme guess you're going with Dan?" I chuckled
"Yep! And Phil's 3rd wheeling."
"Cute." Me, Liz and Ella walked to our maths lesson 5 minutes before it started and Mr Marchant was in there. Without Kim.
"Where's Kim?" He asked us
"Probably with Mr Early." I replied. We all went to Mr Early's room and sure enough Kim was in there. She was talking to Mr Early and Mr Marchant just stood there and you could see his heart break. We went back to maths and I was sat next to Kim.
"Who hired Mr Early?" She asked
"I wouldn't have a clue." I replied
"He so good looking!"
"Kim!" I whisper shouted
"What?"
"You're in a relationship."
"Yeah mentally with Mr Early." She smiled. I rolled my eyes and cracked on with the lesson. Ella was sitting in front of me and I passed her a note. At the end of the note passing this is what it read.
Hey
Hey
Now's you're chance ahah
What??
With Marla
Oh yeah should I actually?
Duh.
But he's way older than me
Yeah only by 11 years
True

"Hey sir" Ella smiled after lesson. I stayed in the back pretending to not listen
"Hey Ella." He replied
"So what's wrong with you and Kim?"
"She clearly prefers Early."
"Aww"
"We'll continue the conversation later"
"Okay bye". She walked out the class with me
"Really?" I frowned
"What?" She laughed
"You could've done so much more"
"Meh." At the end of the day we went back home and Mr Marchant was in our house. I went straight to my room and listened to my music. Moment later Liz came in and said we were going shopping. I assumed it was for the prom outfits.
"Do I have to come?" I groaned
"Yes!" Liz answered. She dragged me into the car and Ella followed close behind. Mr Marchant sat in the front and my mom drove me Liz and Ella to the mall. Liz went to a shop full of prom dresses. Ella looked at the dresses with Liz while Mr Marchant and my mom followed. My mom helped them pick out a dress and Mr Marchant called me over.
