The College

Missus Carroll

  So a few boyfriends later, Sarah was once again a single pringle. She had just broken up with Ciaran and he took it pretty bad. Even though Ciaran was a little fuckboy, Sarah changed him without even trying. He fell really hard for her so he was distraught when they broke up. But one day, about six weeks from the Summer holidays, because of the fact the teachers were letting things slide and people were getting away with murder, people started meeting again. So Sarah and Ciaran got paired to do it but she didn't really want to but with little persuasion she did it. Six times (The fact that we used to count is the cringiest of all). But Mister Rellis found out this time because someone ratted. I was sitting in English, trying to imagine what would be the easiest way to kill Miss Walsh and get away with it when my train of thought was interrupted by Miss Carroll on the intercom;

"Please excuse the interruption but can Sarah Collins and Ciaran McLawrence come to my office IMMEDIATELY please, thats Sarah and Ciaran to my office NOW. Thank you"

The entire class just went silent and everyone looked at each other with that '-oh shit-' look, everyone knew what happened.

"....Wouldn't like to be them..." Miss Walsh muttered loudly, intending for the whole class to hear.

Sarah and Ciaran went to the office. Then there was another announcement calling more people to her office, one of them being Sebastian, then another announcement, and then another. By the end of English class, sixteen people from first to second year were called to her tiny little office. From what I know, the conversation in there went something like;

"...ARE YOU ANIMALS? FORCING PEOPLE TO KISS? OR MEET  OR SHIFT  OR SNOG  OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT? DRAGGING PEOPLE DOWN CORRIDORS TO FORCE THEM TO KISS SOMEONE AGAINST THEIR WILL?" she looked at Sebastian.

"DO YOU KNOW WHATS NEXT? DO YOU?!"

"...rape? " a little black kid muttered

"YES! YES DAVID, RAPE INDEED! YOU WILL BE RAPING EACH OTHER IN OUR CORRIDORS! IS THAT THE REPUTATION YOU WANT TO LEAVE FOR OUR SCHOOL? IS IT?"

Everyone stopped taking her seriously when she compared meeting to rape because she just loves to over exaggerate every little thing.  Last class she made an announcement and I honestly thought she was going to call me, but instead she was calling all first years to the GPA for an assembly and went on an overly long rant about how we were the worst year group she's ever had in the school, and how our behaviour was "disgraceful" and how "we should be ashamed of ourselves" and all that shite. Nobody really payed any attention to it.

Obviously, when I got home I texted that girl who ratted on Sarah and I was a bit mean I will admit but I could've said worse. She threatened to tell Miss Carroll and I sarcastically said "Go ahead"...BIG  mistake.

 I went in for Religion first thing the next day to retake the test that the assembly interrupted the day before when there was a knock on the door. It was Miss Carroll. 

"May I take Alison Fenlon for a few minutes?"

I could feel everyone's eyes on me as I stood up and my teacher Miss Cleary excused me. There was no conversation made on the way to her office. When I walked in I was greeted with an A4 printed screenshot of the messages I sent  the night before. Needless to say, there was no getting out of this one. - I . Was . Fucked.

"So, apparently there was a bit of activity on social media last night? Snapchat  in particular, hmm?" She questioned 

"Yes, Miss" I say, awaiting my death.

She slid the printed screenshot towards me.

"This look familliar?"

"Yes"
