Before Mackenzie Became Popular

Chapter 10: Brody And Jess

Mackenzie walked beside the vice principal. Mackenzie looked at him while walking. Suddenly, he noticed.
"So, you are Mackenzie Hollistery right?" he asks. "Hm, it looks like you were a student at a private school and a public high school. Am I correct?"

"Yes, I was an intelligent student in those schools. Anyway, can you tell me the directions?"

"Sure. Right now, we're going up the stairs to the north wing." We walked up the stairs and opened up a huge red double door for her to go through the hallway.

Don't worry, I'll come with you," and he walked Mackenzie to her classroom. They passed 2 doors and the third one is the class.

"Oh, yes, make sure you DON'T be late for class because the teacher is very strict with the detentions," he laughed.

"Anyway, are you ready for this? If not, take a deep breath."

Mackenzie did in fact, took a deep breath. Then, he knocked on the door. Mackenzie could hear the chit chatter of students gone silent. Finally, the teacher opened the door.

"Oh! Just in time! Discipline my class please," she joked. She looks rather lovely. Her hair is curly black, auburn eyes, and her age looks like about her 25ths. The vice principal wasn't very happy now. Mackenzie's pretty sure he's in a bad mood...

"Hey!" he barged into the class and everyone dared not speak. You could almost hear a pin drop.

"This isn't funny. Your teacher is trying to learn you guys Biology for a reason. Aren't I right? You guys are educated! I suspect more respect from you guys! You are lucky you have a teacher like Her that sometimes be fun with you and jokes around. She helps you with wor-"
The vice principal sees a boy whispering and pointing to Mackenzie who is hiding near the doorway.

"Do you want to go to the office? I'm pretty sure you would gladly to have a suspension, no?" and he eyed him.

The boy shifted rather uncomfortably.

"Good. Now, the reason I'm here is because there is a new student. She came from Connecticut. Be respectful," and he left. Mackenzie walked up to the front of the class. Everyone stopped whispering and turned to look at her.

"Go ahead, Mackenzie. They won't bite," The teacher told her.

"Um, hi... My name is Mackenzie Hollistery and that's all you need to know." And she walked down the aisle looking for her seat. suddenly, she spotted Nickole, but she didn't spot her. She is too busy doing her nails rather than listening to Mackenzie talking.

"Thank you dear. Now, please have a seat next to Brody, the one with the black hair and- CHEWING GUM! Brody, throw that out before I'm sending you to the office!" the teacher was actually pretty strict with her students.

He groaned and stood up. When he walked, passing Mackenzie, he gave her a mean look. Mackenzie hid her face with her hair. The boy walked back to his seat.

"Go on, Mac! I know how you feel when you're new."
So, Mackenzie walked to her spot near this guy named Brody. When she did so, She didn't even look at him.

"Alright you guys, this is biology class. I expect you to do your best in the next test." The teacher barked.

Surprisingly, everyone did as she asked, even Brody. Mackenzie felt confused all of a sudden because she just transferred as a student. Then, Mackenzie felt a nudge. She spun around, it was Brody.

"What?!" she hissed, clearly understanding that he is a bad boy, and she dislikes bad boys...

"Hey, well, you need to get out your Biology textbook. Otherwise," he made a imaginary 'slit your throat' action.
