I spat my gum up to the lamppost near the school gate and entered the school.

'Hey Grady,' Brody came over, his cheeks glowing red because of the cold. It's snowing today, which is really cool, because Mr. Mc Kallister

(who is our home room teacher) might give us an early leave for ice skating at the pond.

'Hey Brody. Yo, Jeanz! Over here!' I yelled as I caught Jeanz wandering over to the yard.

He ran over and the three of us went to the lockers.

'Will someone remind us why we hate I.T.?' Jeanz said, peeking over to my locker.

'Because it's disgusting, duh.' says Brody.

'Only by that?' I said.

Brody and Jeanz looked at me as if they've heard the funniest joke on Earth.

'Only by that? Only?' Brody repeated.

'No, I didn't mean, it's just, I think he's not only, like, more. More than that.'

'Did he just called I.T. "he"?' Says Jeanz.

'It was a mistake.' I defended myself.

'Mistake. He says.' Jeanz said, facing Brody.

'Why are you guys acting-'

Suddenly, Brody bursted out laughing. 'Just kidding, man!'

'We gotcha!!' Laughed Jeanz.

'Hey so this is sort of a plan huh?' I fake laughed. It was really scary to lose some besties like this...

'Mr.Rasherville? Please answer the question that I've assigned you to do.' says Mrs.Tyler, her piercing blue eyes peeking up from her gold rimmed glasses.

'Uhm. Err, that, uh, is the, Ummm, northern hemisphere?' I admit I wasn't paying any attention to what she says.

I.T. suddenly whispered at me. 'Southern. Southern Hemisphere.'

'Southern Hemisphere. Southern.' I said as Mrs.Tyler opened her mouth to say something. She closed her mouth and mumbled. 'You may sit down, Mr.Rasherville.'

I sat down and whispered to thank I.T.. It smiled in return.

Somehow, I.T. isn't really that bad.

Hello again!! So this time Grady said he thought I.T. wasn't really that bad! He said it! What would happen next?? :P
