Sorry that I'm not particularly creative when it comes to replacing the word "says" with something else, I hope you enjoy anyways xx
(and if you have any ideas of chapter names that sound like the titles of books please message me them)
POV: Dustin
It is ten past three and we are sitting in the science room waiting for Mr Jefferson to start detention.
Today hasn't been a great day. I had been up all night trying to find a way to tell my mum to stop looking for Yurtle. After putting D'Art in Yurtle's cage, Yurtle had mysteriously disappeared. Days after I found D'Art feeding on Mews. I found what was left of Yurtle about 3 weeks later rotting in the basement. His shell was broken in half and and the edges had been gnawed on by sharp, spikey teeth. After breaking the hard news about Mews to Mum, she was balling her eyes out the whole night, I couldn't put her through that again. So last night I had stayed up until 2 in the morning brainstorming excuses.
So, long story short, I am tired. And seeing Max and Lucas holding hands together at lunch hasn't made me feel much better. And now I am in detention! I just can't catch a break.
"Detention will start soon," Mr Jefferson mutters, "We are just waiting on one more student."
Just as he says that, the door handle turns and a girl that I have never seen before walks in. She has jet black hair and is wearing a black t-shirt and black jeans.
"Sam. Your late. It's your first day at a new school, you get a detention...and your late," mumbles the teacher. I don't think I will every understand how someone can have such a boring voice.
"Sorry sir," the girl groans in her thick Australian accent.
Out of the corner of my eyes I see Lucas nudge max, "Looks like you're not the new girl anymore huh?"
"Oh, shut up," Max grins her boyfriends teasing.
I roll my eyes. I can't stand when they get like this.
I watch as Sam makes her way towards our row of desks and sits down next to me.
"Hey," she says.
"Uh, hey, I'm Dustin," I say, "Are you new here?"
"Yeah," the girl says, "I moved 'ere from WA."
I nod my head, "So why are you in here if it's your first day?"
"I swore at my math teacher," she laughs.
"Why?"
"She got annoyed at me cuz I didn't know any of the 'merican units of measurement . But how was I s'pposed to know? They're so confusing, especially cuz I'm not from here."
I laugh, "Thats a bit harsh isn't it?"
"Yeah."
"Mr Henderson," Mr Jefferson says.
"Yes sir?"
"The whole reason that you are in here is because you failed to keep that mouth of yours shut. Do you want another detention next week?"
"No sir."
"Then all of you, I want you to write out your times tables, all the way up to 50."
We look at each other desperately.
"But sir," Will complains, "That could take ages."
"Yes it could," Mr Jefferson says, "But guess what? I don't care."
We groan and pull out our text books from our bags.

Later, we are still in detention, It has only been about ten minutes but my hand is already sore.
"I am going to go get some pudding from the staff room," Mr Jefferson announces, "Whilst I am gone, you are not to speak a word to each other, understand?" He looks at us for a second, "Good," and then walks out.
We immediately turn to each other and fill each other in the answers we didn't get.
"Whats twelve times thirteen?" Asks Max.
"One hundred and fifty four," I reply.
"No it's one hundred and fifty six," Lucas corrects.
I give Lucas an evil look, "No, it's one hundred and fifty four."
Lucas groans, "It's really not."
"Is too,"
"Oh guys, shut up," says Mike, "Hey, whats eleven times twelve?" He asks.
"One hundred and thirty two," I reply before Lucas can.
Mike goes to write down the answer when his face drops.
"Eleven," He whispers.
We all turn to look at him.
"Shit, shit, shit, I forgot. HOW COULD I FORGET!?"
"Mike what is it?" I ask.
"Eleven," he gulps, "I forgot about her."
"Her?" Questions Sam.
Mike grabs his bag and sprints out of the class room just in time for Mr Jefferson to see him dash past.
"Mike Wheeler!!" He yells as he grasps at the air.
But it's too late, Mike had disappeared down the hallway. We all look at each other for a split second before barging past the teacher after Mike.
