The Art Of Sarcasm

Chapter 6

Hello there, sorry that it's been
2 months since I've updated this. I blame my GCSEs XD. Any ways, lets get on with the story....

Dans POV
The day had finally came. Cats party is this evening. Dread washed over me. I honestly can't be bothered.

You know that mood that you get into where you just want to lock your self in your room and eat a load of food? Yeah, well that's me right now.

I was walking out of school when Phil and Louise tapped me on the shoulder.

I looked between them both with my eyebrows raised expectantly.
"What?"

Louise was the first to speak. "We've still got a few hours before the party begins so we thought we could all go shopping!"

I rolled my eyes. "What's wrong with what I was already gonna wear?"

"It was probably gross." Louise simply stated.

"Geez thanks."

Then Phil spoke for the first time. "Let's go."

This is going to be a long few hours.

-

"We're here!!" Louise grinned while thanking the taxi driver.

I was seriously considering waiting for Louise and Phil to get out of the car and then getting the taxi man to drive me far, far away. But that's mean... Am I going soft?

My plans were interrupted by the taxi driver coughing. He was holding his hand out expectantly. I looked to where Louise and Phil were previously sat. Great so I have to pay?

Sighing, I checked in my pockets for money to give.

Great I don't have any. I awkwardly sit there for a couple of minutes, not knowing what to do.

"Erm... I-I'm assuming that paying you in compliments isn't an option."

The man gave me a massive death stare. I guess that's a no then.

I sigh.

"And I'm assuming you don't want my English school book? Or any other subjects book for that matter?"

The man looked more angry. Okay great.

I slowly slid across the back seat, opened the car door and darted across the car park to the shopping centre entrance.

-

"Where were you?" Louise asked me.

"The taxi driver wanted money and I didn't have it..."

Louise and Phil's mouths dropped open.

"You mean-"

"Yep lets go before he comes to get me okay?" I grabbed both of their arms and dragged them further into the shopping centre.

-

"Aww you and Phil could get matching outfits! That'd be so cute!"

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah if we were siblings."

Louise sighed. "Can you at least pretend that you're having a good time?"

"Yeah I love looking at bloody ties. I'm not wearing one of those."
