Bucket List (Narry AU)

Chapter 3

A/N And we're back for more of this book! ALSO, did you guys see the WWA Film Trailer? It just came out like kind of yesterday (bc it's midnight so yes) and there were many tears, I can't even.

REMEMBER TO COMMENT!

DON'T BE A SILENT READER BC I WANNA SEE YOUR REACTIONS!

But I digress, I hope you enjoy the chapter!

The whole class stared at the teacher uncomfortably, while she just kept the smile she has plastered on her face every day. She pat me on the back “What an interesting topic we have here! Perhaps the most interesting!”

I faked a smile at her, Lauren immediately caught on and sighed. I handed the paper to Mrs. Alvord and walked towards my desk, slumping as soon as my bum hits the chair. “I can’t believe this is happening to me” I mumbled, resting my head on the wall I sit next to.

“It’s all gonna be ok, Harry, don’t worry…”

“Lauren.” Mrs. Alvord interrupts our mid-class conversation, startling Lauren. “Do you have anything to share with the class?”

She sat up on her chair, facing what was directly in front of her. “No, Mrs. Alvord. I’m sorry” She looked down in embarrassment. Lauren takes it to heart when teachers scold her.

“Very well then. Now, before the two groups get together to discuss their views, I’d like to say that this is the last project you’ll do this term.”

LAST? But we only did one other project!?

“And with only one other project, this debate will make around 60% of your final mark in CR. Now then, you may join your groups.”

Mrs. Alvord sat down on her chair, watching us put tables together to discuss what we should do. As soon as our group got everything ready, we started talking about how we should approach the topic.

Well, they did, I kinda just rested my head for the remainder of the lesson. Wasn’t in the mood to pretend I’m against gay people.

What am I supposed to do now?

“So who do you think will be the one presenting our ideas?” Lauren suggested. We hadn’t elected a spokesperson yet, and we really needed one.

“I think the curly boy there would be a good one. He always makes his presentations interesting and he’s the one who chose the theme so it’s only fair.” Allison said with an evil smile on her face.

Before Lauren or I could disagree, she had already written my name down, with no objections from any other people in the group. “Mrs. Alvord, this here is the name of our spokesperson for the against half of the debate.” Allison said handing her the paper, with an innocent smile on her face.

Mrs. Alvord simply nodded and jotted the information down on her little notebook.

It’s official, I am going to hate this project.

I got home and threw my bag on the floor next to my wardrobe before flinging myself into bed, landing face first on my pillows. I can’t believe any of this, what utter bullshit.

Why the hell would Allison want ME as the spokesperson?

Couldn’t she bother someone else for once?

Why does she hate me and Lauren so much?

I don’t even know what to ask myself right now. What a bitch.

“Hey Harry?” A girly voice came from the door. I turned around to see Gemma creeping through the little portion of the door that was actually open. “May I come in?”
