The Diary

Chapter 3~ Janitors Closet

Hey -inserts-, Before I start this one, I received a very nice message from shonacees . I was asked to give her story a read. I did. I am completely hooked, If you guys want to check it out it's called Uncharted Territory.

Anyways, Enjoy!

The next day. Period before lunch:

My heart was racing I sat behind my desk anticipating the finish.

BRING
BRING
BRING

The bell vibrates through the school signalling the end of my torture. Debating class had ended.

It's not that I hated school. On the contrary, I loved it. Well, at least I was good at it.

My current guardian is my foster mother, Mary, she was forced into an arranged marriage years ago only to have her parents die a week after the wedding. She divorced about a year ago. She found me by reading an article on how my last foster family had died. (A fire). She knew I needed help and took me in.

She is an angel like that. Definitely worthy of being my mum. Sometimes I forget she isn't the real thing. She tries so hard to give me a bright future even though the past few years of my life have been hell. She works extra shifts, helps out at school. She wants me to go to a great school even though she can't afford it. When I found out, I tried for a scholarship even though I got one it was small and only helped a little.

Recently she was promoted so we no longer have a huge burden. Only small worries. That's why I try so hard in school. That and I think it's really fun. Because I have no life.

My only social life is Alise. Speaking of the devil. Where is she?

I'm standing next to Alise's locker waiting for her to show. She may be late to pick me up in the mornings, but she is NEVER tardy for lunch.

I scan the hall trying to find somewhere she could be hiding. When my eyes fall on a door with a label that reads janitors closet. On cue I hear something crash from behind the door.

I march up confident that she is in there. When I open the door, I find that I am right.

There she is with a mop on her head (presumably what fell) sitting next to, Zack! Ughhh.

"What?" I squeak.

"Yeah, What?" A voice says from behind me.

I swivel around to face Zack's best friend, Liam. Who is cute might I add, but as far as I knew an ass.

"I thought you didn't like her any more!" Liam says still staring at Zack. While he says it he is grinning from ear to ear. He brings up his phone to snap a picture, all while I continue to stare at him.

When the flash goes of I turn back to Alise and realise that, the photo will probably be all over the school tomorrow causing terror for Alise.

"We didn't do anything!" Alise said.

"Yeah, I tripped and accidentally crashed us in here. Then the door was locked so..." Zack continued.

Liam laughs, waves his phone then bolts.
I see the look of terror on Alise's face and shoot after him.

He may be a jock but I can be fast when I want to be.

After a good few minutes I tackle him to the ground in a deserted drama room.

I snatch the phone then grin triumphantly.
He seems shocked that I was able to catch him.
Quickly deleting all evidence of the photo, plus recently deleted, I hand the phone back.

"Your welcome." I state as I give him back his phone.
He just stares. It makes me a little uncomfortable so I turn on the spot and leave the room.

On the way out I mumble "Funny, drama in the drama room."
He wasn't meant to hear me but he laughed.
Brushing past me he said "You're funny, bubble"

"That's NOT my name" I yelled.

"I know, but I don't know your real one and bubbles are a candy so I figured you would get it." He replied as he stopped in the door way.

"I don't eat candy." I said bluntly.
"I only eat chocolate." I ran past him and out of the drama department. I was really hungry.
