Friday Barnes: Fake love

iv

The next few weeks Friday decided to ignore Addison as she incessantly bickered to Ian and Mel about her luxurious life and all her photo shoots she had with famous celebrities. And all Friday did be their fourth wheel and pretended to show interest in Addison's life.

But one day, Addison's topic of choice was different to Ian and Mel as she grinned from ear to ear. Her brunette with blond strands of hair sashayed from side to side as she strode to Ian and Mel as they walked towards PDHPE. She purposely flicked her acrylic nails around and using her fingers so delicate put a strand of hair behind her ears, again purposely showing off her multiple earrings in one ear. 

"Can you believe it! A new teacher is coming to Highcrest!" Addison squealed as she gave Mel and Ian a side bear hug with each of her arms wrapped around them, again, leaving Friday out. She wasn't surprised. Poor Ian and Mel had been wrapped around Addison's fingers, they mostly forgot she existed. 

People beside them heard, and started talking amongst each other, very loudly.  

Is he going to be those models you see in magazines?

Could he be from the Hollywood hills?

Shhh! Way to loud. What if it's a she?

Friday laughed quietly at the last remark. Finally someone is making a little sense today.

But the excitement soon died as soon as they saw the new teacher in assembly two hours later. There stood a male indeed teacher. But in his mid-thirties. All the happy grins and smiles and wearing extra short skirts just to show off turned into dull and sad faces. One girl even cried and mascara started running down her face. 

"I am Mr. Demeclus," Friday looked up from the maths book she was reading during a biology lesson. She fixed her glasses and she took in a proper look on his face. The teacher had the look of one who had grown too fast in his youth. His wild brown hair ran from every direction as he wore a classic grey shirt with a small print that said Loving me life. His green emerald eyes was the only thing that stood out from his whole face.

After one whole hour of Biology which was Mr Demeclus rambling about how much he loves to teach, right on the bell, Friday was the first one to run of the monotonous classroom.

"So unlike her," She could faintly hear Mel whisper into Ian's ear with him nodding in response. 

"Friday! Wait up," Friday sped walk along the hallway as she could hear Mel and Ian call her from behind. Finally they notice me! That angered her up as the blood boiled inside her. 

Digging her fingers inside the sweatpants she wore, she walked faster making a little jog along the way. Hurry, slow legs!  But, Friday was never good at jogging and in fact PDHPE was her worst subject which made Ian which was the contrast of her easily caught up without puffing.

"Friday? What are you acting so distant?" Friday could feel Ian's hand on her shoulders. Such a small gesture and it made butterflies burst in her stomach and electricity coursing through her veins. Ignoring him, she brushed his hand off and continued walking. His your boyfriend, stop ignoring him! A voice said in her brain. No, he is so distant to you. Since he is your boyfriend, he should be the one comforting you and always acting like what a normal good boyfriend would do. 

"I'm so needy sometimes," Friday chuckled as she straighten her glasses and walked towards the dining hall. 

Sitting down with her food in the furthest table hoping Ian, Mel and Addison won't find her, she smiled. This is my life now she thought as she reached for her fries and placed one in her mouth thinking about all the happy things she had before Addison came.

Ian, Mel, Binky, Crimes, mysteries. One of her favourite mysteries she solved was one where she had to uncover who was the swamp yeti who turned out to be Miss Harrow. Why she enjoyed that mystery the most? It was the first time where she met Ian. Oh Ian. She can't stay mad at him. From his thin lips to his sandy blond hair. And Mel, always sleeping and -

"Friday!" She heard Mel call as she dazed back to reality. 

"What?" Friday asked, shock yet a little amusement laced in her voice. "How did you find me?"

"Isn't hard Friday hun," Addison commented as she sat next down and indicated Ian to sit next to her. Wow Ian gave Friday a look and shrugged his shoulders. This fumed Friday but decided to brush it off since she was in public and lots of people was close to her. She would talk to him later.

"So Frys, Ian, Mel, Binky and I formed a group called, 'The Gang" and we were wondering if you wanted to join?" Addison asked Friday as she gazed at Friday with a mocking smile. 

"It's alright, I'm good," Friday replied as she reached for another fry and placed it in her mouth scooting away from Addison a little as she reached for her tray and walked towards the bin.

"I'll see you guys later, not feeling wall."

With that she left.
