"Jess, stop daydreaming."
I quickly put my head back down to look at the textbook.
Why did James have to switch my classes?
I kept on thinking and scribbling down answers.
The bell rings.
"Nobody leaves my classroom yet! Im checking if you made it to exercise 8"
 
I look at my work. At least I had made it to exercise 8.... or 13...
Mrs Greyfield walks past every table.
"Vey good everybody. You can all leave now. Class dismissed."

I leave the  class room with various taughts.
How much I hated my new class...
How much I wanted to go home...
How tired I was...
How much I wanted to see Lukas...

I go to my locker and stuff my chemistry books, taking out my health and social care files.
I go to my class and sit down. Mrs Greyfield calls out everybody's name. Aiko is there too. He waves at me.
"Fuck me hard, shit"
I turn back to face the teacher.
"Ballocks"
The teacher seemed to be ignoring Aiko's tics.

"Alright class. I want you all to answer some questions. I want you all to answer questions 1 to 25 in your book, and when you're done I want you all to make pairs. One of three and one of two."

Strange.. she didnt ask for Aiko's name. I taught the only new person was Chloe... even then she asked her to repeat her name.

"Fuck me in the anus! Tadpoles!"
Aiko turns red.

Infront of me.. it wouldn't have been that bad. I would have just ignored it. But infront of a whole  class... that's a different story.

Zachary and Julia snicker softly.
Aiko just sighs.

"George was killed!"

I freeze.

"Lukas did it! Fuck shit!"

My heart enters my throat. I was so scared. I wanted to go to the bathroom but I couldn't.
My hand shakes slightly as I write. Aiko is concentrating on his work but he is still ticking alot.
I think it was best if I parthnered up with Aiko.
But first I had to finish my work.

"I'm so gay!
I'm so gay!
Faggots
Fuckin Faggots!"

"That's what you are" Zachary whispers to Aiko but loud enough for me to hear. My blood starts boiling. He has the same teasing voice as my father. I hated my father and I would never forgive him even if my  life depended on it. Aiko just ignores him

Aiko's tics go on for a bit.
"Squirrel! Kill Lukas! Kill Lukas! Die!"
It wasnt the tics that was bothering me. It was what he was saying. Aiko twitches really badly and headbumps his desk really hard.
Aiko winces.

"Aiko, pay attention please"

So she DID know his name...

"Yes, Ma'am"

She was surprisingly polite to him.
His tics continued.

"Faggot, tortoises. TADPOLES! Bubble tea! Fuckin bubble tea!"

"Shut the fuck up im trying to read!" Some yells at him.
My blood boils again.

"Zachary! We don't use such language in our classroom!  I want you to report yourself to the principal right now! Shoo!"
Zachary gets up and grumbles. I didnt feel the slightest sorry for him.

"Demons! Im a demon! Kill Lukas!"
Aiko sighs.
"Tadpoles.."
"Michael Jackson."

Somebody was possesing Aiko. Clearly somebody who's a demon. And clearly somebody called George Valence...
