A Gingers Crazy Love

24: arrested, school, and home?

*Tolops pov*
I was up half the night minding Sal and living with the fact that instead of one child, she's bearing TWINS. I finally got to sleep at 3am. To my surprise, Sal was up before the eight thirty alarm. She shoved on one of my hoodies and wore her green shorts. Yes, I'm aware that this isn't the school uniform, but no, I don't care she says. You won't get away with that Sal, even though you are a new student. I yawn. The door knocks. Sal opens it. Not right now she says, but the people still manage to come in. A little privacy I yell. Then I realize. It's the police. You deliberately knocked into this young female yesterday. We place you under arrest one police says. Me and Sal look at each other. I most certainly did not. I reply. We need photos. Into the bathroom the other police says. I don't see the point in arguing so I get out of bed and go to the bathroom. We need full body photos one says the minute he locks the door. I close my eyes and bit my lips. I'm not wearing anything in my chest. Now I'm not wearing anything from my waist down. I cover my eyes. We hear a knock. I know it's Sal. I need to brush my teeth she yells and the handle rattles. It's locked. She tries three more times before admitting defeat. Tolop, I'm going to school. So see you there? She asks. I hope so I yell back.

*Sals pov*
I walk to school. You late too? Chirps Andi into my ear. Nothing new I laugh. What happened your nose? She asks. Melissa's car I reply as we turn the corner. Melissa is there with her friends. You are one sick twisted bitch. How could you do that to poor Tolop? I ask her. Wouldn't you like to know!? She laughs. I hated her at that very moment. I swing my non injured hand into her mouth. She stumbles back, shocked. Me and Andi head on. That was really brave what you did back there. I hate her too Andi tells me. We go into the school. Everyone is smiling and yelling at each other or getting books and doing incomplete homework. Hi Sal! And Andi! How's the nose? Yells Shima, running up to us. Later I hiss. The bell goes for first class: Music. Hello everyone. Hope y'all had a nice weekend cheers Mrs. O Harvey. No I think to myself. Take out your homework she says and turns around to write on the board: Things that signify music. I sit at the back of the class. I take out my phone and start scrolling through my Instagram feed. Sal, put that away Yells Mrs Harvey. I put it in my pocket. You're not even wearing the correct uniform. That's a detention she yells again. Play it cool And whispers to me. I swing my legs onto the desk. Legs off the furniture she shouts again, face going red. The entire class turns around to look at me. With my luck, Two of Melissa's friends are in the same class. Hand me your phone she says, palm hovering near me. I grab a hunk of chewed gum out from under the desk and hand it to her. Two detentions she declares, going out the bathroom to wash her hands. Chat immediately starts up. You tell her, Sal. You're so tough, smart talking to her two guys tell me. I put my legs back on the table and take out my phone. The door reopens. It's not Mrs Harvey. It's Mr. Jayden. He goes straight up to the desk. The girl called Sal please come up he whispers across the classroom. It's the type of whisper that makes anyone quiet. I go up. You have a good opinion on what to do in class and what not to do he says sarcastically. Right you are I reply. This girl- he begins. All eyes are on me again. You know what? I give up on this class. I'm leaving I say and walk down the classroom. I get my back and walk out nonchalantly. I go to the bathroom. I throw up. I go out. I dunno how I missed her coming in, but Melissa is there, doing her makeup. You wear too much makeup I tell her. That an opinion or a fact? She asks, now applying mascara. Fact I reply. Listen, if you know what's good for you, I'd keep my mouth shut otherwise I'd expose you she replies. Man, you're a bit grumpy today I say before going outside. The bell went for the next class: Domestic science. At least Hellbent is there. The regular teacher wasn't in so the subsitute let us do whatever. I talked with Hellbent. Tolop got arrested this morning I say to Hellbent. What? Why? He asks back. Apprantely, he was the one that crashed into me yesterday. I mean, what the fuck, like? I tell him again. Melissa was the one that crashed into you, not Tolop he responds. Just saying, better be careful, because she wants you and the rest to be in jail or something I hiss. He nods. The bell goes for lunch. Dolan is at the vending machine with Shima. Hey Sal. What's up? You seem down Dolan says. Tolop got arrested I reply. Melissa lied to the police chimes in Hellbent. I'll talk to her. She'll listen to me Dolan replies.
