Troubled

The First Fight

Head's up: This chapter is crap... It gets better!

Chapter 1

"Miss Thompson, my office please." Mr. Hikles orders. I roll my eyes and keep walking. "Miss Thompson. Miss Thompson. Miss Thompson!" he yells at me. "What?" I snarl at him. "My office please." "Why?" "It is the first day of high school as a senior and you are already breaking the dress code." he says leading me to his office. "And?" I ask. He takes a deep breath. "I'm letting you off the hook this time but, if this happens again I'll-" "What will you do? Call my parents? That won't work!" I yell at him. "Just go..." he orders me. I storm out of the room.

"What was that?" Luke asks me. "Hikles busted me for my outfit. He threatened to call my parents." I started laughing. "Kesi, does the school know about your situation?" he asks stopping in the hall. "No, I never filled out that part." I say rolling my eyes. "Kesi, you'll have to tell them at some point." he says grabbing my arm. "I know, at some point. And call me Scout. That's the name I what to go by." I say walking away.

Luke is one of my very few friend. He accepted me when we were little and still does. Kesi you never cared about friends, don't sweat it.

I was rudely snapped out of my thoughts as a girl ran into me. "I'm so sorry Scout!" Monica squeals running away. "Of course you are." I mutter under my breath. "Be nice." Luke warned. "Why do you care so much about me right now?" I ask Luke. "I think you could restart here, make some friends, but you clearly don't want that. Goodbye." Luke replies walking towards his social studies class.

The bell rings as I enter my chemistry class. "Check the list for your lab partner." Mrs. Beckon mutters. I look at the list hoping for another smart kid. I get good grades and I hate when I have less bright kids as my partners: Jasmine and Beth. I moan. Those two hate me and each other. I make my way to the desk in the middle of Beth and Jasmine arguing. "If this is going to work, we have to be on the same page. That means no arguing." I explain as I sit on the right side of the desk.

After class, Beth and Jasmine decided to be friends which made this easier for me. As I walk towards my locker, I see Beth getting beat up by a stupid senior. I walk up to the fight, drop my bag and join the fight. "Get behind me!" I whisper to Beth as I walk past her. She obeys and I punch the senior in the nose. He smiles at me and throws a punch at my head. I dodge easily and kick him in the stomach and punch him in the head knocking him down. "Miss. Thompson! Get over here now!" Mr. Hikles yells from the other end of the hall. I pick up my bag and walk away, in the opposite way of Hikles.
