I walk down the school hall with my books in my arms and bag on my back. My glasses fall down my nose so I push them back onto my face. This - of course - make Charlotte Barony and her two follers Stella and Bella to laugh. As I walk towards my locker and enter my code, the walk - aka. strut - toawrds me. When they are about a metre away Charlotte flips her golden hair behind her thin frame. Stella and Bella immediately copy her although its slightly less fluid and more awkward. Bella's fiery red hair got caught in her long, dangly earing and Stella's black hair was already behind her shoulder. Charlotte leaned against the locker next to time causing her already too short skirt to ride up further. In fact, she was so close, I could smell the enormus amount of perfume she was wearing. "What do you want?" I hissed not really wanting to talk. I was already running late for my biology class.

"Why, are you in a rush?" Charlotte's sweet voice made me want to puke. I knew she wasn't going to leave any time soon so I got my books together, closed my locker and started walking away from them.

"Hey! You forgot your caculator," Bella called out trying to make an insult. I couldn't help but laugh when Charlotte slapped her for making such an insulf. I ran to biology, my bulky school shoes banging on the ground. Our school, Jefferson High, had an optional school uniform. Out of the 1500 students here, there was only about 10 people who wore it; I was one of them. My gray pleated skirt had maroon lines running through it, creating a checkered pattern. I was placed exactly one inch above the centre of the kneecap, which was a good length in my books. My knee high socks had the same pattern and are situated below the kneecap, not leaving much space for my legs to be shown. My shirt was a white, button up blouse with the school emblem on the front pocket. I had a tie which had the same pattern as my skirt and socks. It was truly ugly, but it was still better than anything in my wardrobe. My hair - which is brown - is in a long braid which starts on the top of my head. I am relatively pretty but no-one seems to see though my glasses, uniform or good grades. I arrive to biology 5 minutes late and everybody lookss at me. If I were a 'cool kid' like Charlotte; I could arrive half an hour late and nobody would care. But, if you're a nerd like me; if you arrive 2 minutes lae and people stare at you like you've killed someone. I go to take a seat at the back of the room but when I was about 2 metres away Charlotte - who happens to be in my biology class - comes running in, nearly bowls me over and sits in the seat I was 3 seconds away from sitting in. She smirks at me and the entire class begins to laugh while I am forced to take the sseat closest to our techer, Mr Humphrey. He sighs and straightens his spine slightly before he begins to speak. I begin to scribble down notes about what he is saying. Mr Humphrey is nice enough, but he just doesn't give a damn - like every other teacher in this enitre school. There is one teacher in the school that does give a damn. His name is Mr Trevor. He is a young and vibrant teacher. Last year, he was my english teacher and I heard that some girls had a crush on him. I mean, he is alright looking but he's like 25, eww! My train of thought was interuppted by the bell and sir saying "Don't forget to complete your homework for tomorrow!" What homework!? I look down at my book and praise the lord that my hand had been on autopilot, copying down everything the teaher had said.

"Wow," I muttered to myself while packing my things.

"Georgia Holloway," Mr Humphrey said, "come here please." I slowly walk towards him as I think of all the things I have done recently that may get me in trouble. "You know you are doing very well," I nod suspiciously, "well, I was wondering if you could tutor another student." Relief flooded through me as I agreed. I had done tutoring before, its pretty easy. "Good, can you meet her at the library at 3:15 today?"

"Sure," I replied just as a question came to my mind. "What's her name?"

"Uh, Charlotte Barony. She's in your biology class that we just had. Know her?" As soon as he said Charlotte my face dropped. I nodded and started to walk outside. Dreading the moment when the clock on my Baby-G watch flicked to 3:15.

The rest of my day continued as normal. At lunch my pasta was slammed on my face instead of my clothes so that was a plus. In English, Mrs Murrow let us watch a movie for the whole lesson so I just rested. I had an hour gap inbetween my last lesson and Charlotte's tutoring so I decided I'd get a headstart on what I will do. I ended up deciding on a worksheet; questions on the front and the answers on the back. I knew she would cheat but I honestly didn't care. I finished and re-checked my watch, 3:10, I guess I'll head over to the library now. To my surprise, Charlotte was already here, waiting at a desk. When she noticed I was here she out on a fake smile, "Hi teach," she said in a somewhat angelic voice.

"Hi," I muttered back. She lost her smile and slumped back in her chair.

"What do I have to do?" She said while playing with her fingernails.

"This," I said while putting the worksheet in front of her, "questions on the front and the answers are on the back." I breathed in deeply before continuing. "I'll be back in half an hour and if it's not done there is seriously a problem. Have fun." I started walking out the door at a face pace.

"Excuse me, but what if we dont have a pencil," Charlotte smirked, obvisously thinking she has stumped me.

"Find one," I grunted back at her. She flinched and had a confused look on her face as I left the library. I haven't had this much fun in ages.
