On the Count of Y-O-U

Chapter 3: The Prank!

Ammy's P.O.V.:-

The center of the cafeteria was filled with commotion. The crowd was getting larger and larger. I could still hear the chant, just echoing louder than I thought.

There were people formed in a big circle blocking our view from what was going on in the center.

I knew Kayden messed with the wrong junkie but I wasn't sure who. Kate and I pushed people out of the way trying to get through.

My jaw dropped in horror.

There was blood all over their faces, especially Kayden's. The junkie was strong enough and his eyes were filled with anger. The junkie turned out to be Dylan brown as expected. He would definitely beat the shit of him.

He threw a few more punches on Kayden and vice versa, until a loud command obstructed the echoing chants. It was Principle Anderson.

"Enough of the racket!" he paused looking at the two. "And you two, in my office right now!" he demanded.

Dylan had a large bruise with blood on his jawline while Kayden had a large bruise under his eye along with a bloody nose and mouth.

The two of them were dragged to the office that day. Were they gonna be suspended? Or most probably detention for a week.

I didn't see the two after that fight. School left and as usual, Kate tried convincing me to attend one of her late night parties. But when she called home, my mom failed her.

I hopped on my bed that night with my favourite night-suit on dreaming about Kayden. Thanks to my imaginary part of the brain, now it had invited Kayden in my dreams too.

Every morning sucked. But now, the tables had turned out for me.

I woke up early that morning, turning up the music, playing it loudly. I came downstairs for breakfast and slowly began to notice my mom's expression that had a question mark on her face. She was surely in a confusion seeing me too early that morning.

"So your'e gonna look at me like for the whole day mom?", I asked with a grin. "Nothing. Just admiring my daughter's beauty",she said undoubtedly and I blushed at those words. I couldn't get away the images of Kayden being swiped in my head at that moment and I kept smiling.

"Good morning darlings",my dad said huskily. "Looks like Alison is in a good mood today. Don't you think honey?" he giggled softly to my mom.

Mr.Andrew Spencer, that was my dad's name. A simple bold man that worked hard till 6 in the evening in a garage of his own which was almost one mile away from home. He was the most ordinary man in my life that turned love into a hero, adventurers, story-teller and singer of songs. My mom, Evelyn Spencer was married to my dad when she was just nineteen. She was indeed a beautiful woman inside and out. She was always heavily concerned about the well being of the family and worked at a bakery that I sometimes visited during the weekends.

Kingswick was the place, the place where I was born and brought up. It was a beautiful city, indeed and I lived in a small town. People who worked in the city usually resided in towns, so did I. As California had always been my dream place, Kingswick was always my second option.

Coming back to that morning, I reached school later and walked through the hallway to my locker. The school was awfully busy at that moment.

I pulled out some few books not bothering to find anyone and then hurried up to the girl's bathroom as fast as my legs could carry or else I would be late for my science classes.

I ran straight to the girls bathroom and locked myself in one of the stalls.

After a few minutes, "Shit!" I gasped in horror. The door was locked. I cried out for help, but it was too late. The bells rang and I knew I was absolutely late this time.

Someone opened the door. It was the maintenance lady. Before I could explain anything or ask, I went away trying to reach on time. I glanced at my watch a few more times, praying not to be late. We had only three minutes for hallway passing before the final bell.

The final bell rang. I felt myself to shake as I reached.

"Look who's late to class" Mia, one of the cheerleaders said.

"The nerdy Miss Spencer ha? Now get in before she screws you." Jason grinned. I could predict a ugly intention behind his thoughtful grin.

I entered panting heavily like I had been chased by a pack of wolves. I sat on my seat where I always did, but something triggered.

Mrs.Ellsberg, the science teacher stepped in and in the very right moment, something triggered again.

It triggered for the third time, more louder than I thought and everyone's eyes were laid on me. Fransesca glanced at me with confusion asking 'what's in?'.

Without hesitating another single second, Mrs. Ellsberg had my backpack. "There's nothing in", I tried convincing. She handed my backpack on Layla's hands and asked to check in.

"Oh-my-God! Like fucking serious Alison Ammy Spencer?" Layla questioned with a question mark on her face.

"What?" I asked her back. All thoughts started swirling in and I tried rewinding the whole morning in my mind. I was sure I had no phone or headphones in; I had kept them in the locker. But then what was in? I began to sweat.

"A Vibrator?!!" she exclaimed.

"What ?" everyone shrieked along with me.

"Kudos dork! At least you found something over someone to get in your pants,"one of the football player's mumbled to himself laughing at me.

"Out Miss Spencer!" Mrs. Ellseberg growled and wrote something on a slip. I tried explaining with half eaten words nervously, panicking in embarrassment.

She handed me a yellow slip that read bold letters 'DETENTION'.

I was in a state of mental trauma, trying to figure out what had just happened.

I took away the slip and walked back to the girl's bathroom. The tears had blurred  my vision and I locked myself once again to the same stall.

And the worst part, Kate had no science classes in her schedule as she took up computers instead. As well as, I wouldn't get to see her for the rest of the day. She had skipped school due to the previous party that she tried to convince me to attend. Thanks to hangover.

As few minutes passed by, I saw the yellow slip again and decided to attend it. "It is only for three days Ammy"I cheered myself.

Room 20 belonged to Mr.Mike, an old English teacher. I couldn't comprehend how they assigned him the detention duty. He couldn't control one, how could he control a bunch of them?

Then there was me. I was sure Mr. Mike would be surprised to see but in fact, maybe a bit disappointed.

With these thoughts swirling in my head, I prepared myself holding the slip in embarrassment and I stepped in Room No. 20 hesitantly.

Mr. Mike glanced at me twice with surprise. I handed over the yellow slip. He read to himself, "Reason: I brought a triggering vibrator in my backpack".

Disgusting!!! I never brought such stuff. Screw that, I had never seen one before. It was a dirty prank for sure. A dirty horrible prank by one of the attention sharks and I was confident about it. A flush of embarrassment rose to my cheeks and I did not look at Mr.Mike back. The most difficult job would be explaining things to my parents.

Dylan walked in pulling a yellow and white cylinder, placing it between his teeth, lighting it.I looked at him and I remembered Kayden all of a sudden.

"Kayden! Shit!" I whispered in own thoughts. "He's gonna be here."

Fucking holy shit!  This isn't supposed to happen to me! Why me? And who's prank was it even?
