Expecting The Unexpected

Improvisation

Chapter Ten - Improvisation

"Get that thing away from me!" I heard a girl scream from the other side of the lab.

I looked over to where the noise had come from to see that Joe Harrison was dangling a frog covered in slime and mucus in Willa Hastings face. I laughed at the sight and she obviously heard because she turned round to glare at me. No one else. Just me.

It was Monday. And I was back at school, I ended up walking to school because Drew and Hannah left me and went on without me. It wasn't too bad though, and I tried ringing Zack this morning but be still didn't pick up.

I'm now sat in biology, and we were dissecting a frog and a horses eye in pairs. The guy who I'm usually sat next to, Graham Mathers, the insecure shy guy who never talked to me wanted to go with me in a pair but someone else stepped in to save me.

I was now sat on my table with my partner, who just so happened to be Max, dissecting the frog. Max had lost a game of rock, paper, scissors and now he had to dissect the horse's eye. Which is vile in comparison to cutting apart the inside of a frog.

I was poking at the frogs skin whilst Max was making a dogs dinner out of the eye he picked. He had to pick the messed up one with the dodgy retena. Out of the corner of my eye I can see two pairs of eyes staring towards Max.

I turn my head fully around to see that Willa Hastings and Katie Patterson and taking turns. One glaring at me and the other gazing lovingly at Max. And then they switch. So at the moment Willa was giving me death stares whilst Katie was looking at Max like he was the most important thing on all of planet earth.

I placed down my scalpel down onto the board and peeled off my rubber gloves and put them next to my scalpel. I decided I could play with Willa and Katie for a little bit.

I raised my left hand up to Max's head and brushed my fingers through his hair over and over again. He just looked at me strange and put down his stuff to talk.

"What are you doing?" he asked confused. I just smiled sweetly at sweetly and lovingly.

"You know that dumb and even dumber are at us staring right now?" I replied like it wasn't a question but a statement. I saw him lookout of the corner of his eye to recognise that the terrible twosomes.

"And your point is?" he looked even more confused now.

I just rolled my eyes at him and stopped brushing my fingers through his hair. I stood up and moved over towards him carrying my stool with me.

"You know how great your hair looks today?" I complimented him, raising my hand up to once again caress his brown locks.

"Your enjoying this aren't you?" he smirked back to be.

"I don't know quite what you mean Mr Bowman," I acted dramatically stupid. I flashed him a smile and he mirrored my actions.

"Well Miss Beau," he took his gloves off and placed his right hand on my leg. "Are they glaring at us right now?" he continued.

I peered over to Willa and Katie discreetly to see them practically throwing dagger at me with their eyes. I just thought that if Katie's gonna take my space on the football field, then I could play with her emotions a little. Like she's done with mine in the past. I've just never gotten round to getting my revenge until now.

"Yeah," I replied and then I had an idea. I took my hand from Max's hair and placed it on top of his hand that was on my leg. Then with my vacant hand I got a piece of my hair and twirled it round my fingers.

"I can see where this is going," he stated matter-of-factly. I winked at him and went through with my idea.

I suddenly burst out laughing excessively, pretending that he'd said something utterly hilarious. I started touching his arms with both my hands to make the troublesome two green with envy.
