Trapped

I sat and watched the clock tick, just half an hour left, soon there would be no school, no homework, just fun. The classroom displays covered every inch of the room. The displays were colourful and bright. They were about various topics; animal and human biology, the periodic table and the cells that make up a leaf.

Mrs Parker was very creative, Her displays weren't like your average ones. Every inch of the room was covered, in a pleasing manner. There were a range of designs, 3D and more.

Science was interesting for me, but the teacher always found a way to make it boring. There were some topics which I found difficult and pointless like the periodic table. I was never going to use it! Animal biology however that was something that appealed to me. I loved animals and I wanted to be a vet, people on the other hand, not so much.

I sat and doodled on the back of the paper when I felt a nudge in my arm, causing my pen to go across the paper, destroying my bunny.

I took a deep breath in and turn to look at him.
"What?"

"I need help on this question." He stated as he pointed to it. He ran his other hand through his brown shiny hair. I looked down at his paper then back to him. He always irritated me so I though I could annoy him back.

"Well you should have been listening." I said with a shrug.

"Come on Kiera, don't do this to me, we're like besties" he said giving me another nudge.

"Nudge me again and I'm going to break your arm." I said with a smile.

I took a quick glimpse at his green eyes as I smiled, he returned the smile and I looked back down at my question sheet.

"Come on, you know what Miss is like, she won't let me go till it's done."

"NOAH" Mrs Parker yelled across the room.

"What? I didn't do anything" He wined as he stared at her with his mouth open.

"Exactly, finish your work, or else you won't be going."

"God sake." He mumbled under his breath.

"What was that?" She questioned, giving him a death glare.

"Nothing" he lied as he stared back at his sheet.

I slid over my sheet as I watched a smile grow on his face. He looked up at me, but I rolled my eyes and stared out of the window.

The bell finally rang and everyone jumped up. I grabbed all my things and ran out the door, along with all the other kids in my class. I spoke with Sam while walking down the corridor.

"Oh my god, we have six weeks to just sit around, best part of the year." I said with a chuckle.

"I know right! But You still going camping with your dad?" She asked glancing at my face.

"Yeah."

"Sounds fun" she said with a sarcastic tone.

"It is! If you ever actually got off your phone and spent a day in the outdoors you would love it too." I replied tilting my head slightly giving my point.

Everyone was pushing and shoving, half the kids were pushing people for the fun of it. Mostly the younger kids, they irritated me so badly, they were spiteful, rude and just plain annoying.

Sam met with another one of her friends Angela. She was more of the mean girls of the school, popular and pretty. She was the girl everyone wanted to be, but not me, I was fine with the way I was.

"Hey Kiera." Angela said.

"Hi" I replied not that I liked her.

"Come on Sam, let's go." She instructed and Sam followed. She waved bye at me and left. I gestured that I'll text her as she walked away.

I continued to walk down the corridor when I heard my name get called I found a clear space at the side and I looked back, It was Noah.

"Hey" he greeted as he got closer to me.

"What do you want?" I asked once he stood next to me.

"Alright" he snapped causing me to laugh.

"I was wondering whether or not you wanted to go out and do something in the holidays?"

"With you?" I questioned knowing the answer.

"Yeah, do you want to?" He asked with puppy eyes.

"I would but, I don't really like you." I watched his face drop.
"I'm just joking" I added as I laughed at his expense.

"Oh, right." He chuckled slightly, feeling embarrassed.

"I'm going camping with my dad but-" he cut me off.

"You're into that kind if stuff?" He asked with a smile.

"Yeah" I answered a little confused about where this was going.

"You're the first girl I know that likes that kind of stuff." I couldn't help but smile.

"I was about to say, we could do something on the weekend when I get back, if you want?" I asked.

He smiled "yeah, sure." He was about to walk away.

"aren't you going to give me your number or something, so we can arrange a day?"

"Oh right" he grabbed a paper out of his bag and scribbled his number on there. "There you go." He smiled as he handed it over.

I smiled back as I took it. "Well, I'll see you later"

"Bye"

We both turned and left in our own directions. Once I got out in one piece I smiled as I saw my mom waiting for me in the car. She smiled and waved to me so I waved back. She had a baby blue Ford. I could feel the sun's heat burning down on me. I took off my jacket and introduced my skin to the air. I opened the door and sat in the car.

She was wearing her shocking pink dress, that my dad brought for her birthday. She had a pair of earrings and a necklace on, with heels to match. She had long blonde curly hair, but they weren't the crazy all over the place curls, they were neat, tidy and suited her well.

"Hello" she said as soon as I got in.

"Hi"
She turned her body completely to face me.
"So how was school?"

"It was the same" I paused and looked at her with a puzzled face. "Why are you so happy anyway?"
She turned to face the steering wheel and shrugged.

"This time tomorrow I'll have the whole house to myself to just sit back, and relax." She sat back in the car chair and closed her eyes as if she was imagining it in her head. I have to admit though it did sound really nice.
