Rumours [BxB] ✔️

"River Skyter, pay attention when I'm speaking!"

I was snapped back into reality by the horrible, screechy voice of my fifth period History teacher. Her eyes were focused directly at me, but I still began looking around, convinced there just had to be another person going by the name River Skyter sat right near me who she was talking to.

However, when I heard her snarky voice again, I realised it actually was me she was aiming her deadly glares at.

"Yes, I am talking to you," she began, and the entire class erupted into small giggles and sniggers, "Now tell me, what was I just talking about?"

My face paled and my eyes grew wide when I saw Lila turn around, along with every other student, yet she began making hand signals.

"E-erm... a boat! Wait, no. A catapult and a bird. I mean-! A microphone, wait a middle finger sticking up- Oh...." I stuttered, realising what was happening after trying to read Lilas hand movements while also attempting to make it seem like I was actually recalling what happened from my own brain.

"That's it, detention after school until four thirty. M4 straight after class, and don't miss it." She spoke harshly and I muttered curses under my breath, rolling my eyes.

I looked up at Lila and she slapped her forehead before giving me a glare which radiated the message, 'You idiot.'

Well this is just great, now I have a detention and I'm going to miss out on ice cream with Harry and Lila.

I mentally scalded myself while thinking of my two best friends enjoying a nice cone of chocolate... or vanilla, or mint or strawberry or raspberry or-

Now I'm just sadder than I was before.

The bell signalling the end of class rang through the hallways before I knew it, and I quickly gathered together my stuff before shoving it in my black backpack.

I hurried out the door only to be met with a smack to the chest and a flick to my forehead.

"Ow?" I exclaimed, placing a hand over the aching patch on my head, sending the two laughing idiots in front of me death glares.

"Looks like the trio in crime has dwindled to the duo in crime." Harry teased and I felt a wave of anger rush over me.

"Oh for god sake! You have to say the partners in crime, not the duo in crime you asshat. I sometimes have to spend a whole five or more minutes contemplating how in the name of god you were the sperm that won." I folded my arms over my chest before beginning to strut off towards the detention room.

"Good one Rivvy." Lila laughed boldly, giving me a high five.

"Hey! You're meant to be on my side!" Harry complained, eyebrows furrowed, before stumbling after us.

I sighed as we arrived outside M4 and turned to face them. "I'll see you guys later, so don't have too much fun without me and please don't break someone's wing mirror like last time." I rolled my eyes dramatically before winking at them.

"What? You were the one who brok-" Her voice was cut short as I slammed the detention room door shut in their faces.

Chuckling under my breath, I sauntered over to a seat near the back of the class and sat down, whipping my notebook out along with a pencil.

This is going to be a long hour.

When I heard the door creak open and clatter shut again, I didn't even bother to look up as I knew it would be Mrs Scott entering the silent room. However, I was met with a smug voice, which I was far too familiar with, and it echoed through the room.
