From Nerd to Badass

chap 16

"Hey nerd get back over here. We are not done yet." Screamed Harper. "I wanna see you apologize for cheating when you ran and tried to trip Nathan, that was down right dirty, he could never loose to a wimp like you!" She continued to get closer and closer to Hannah, it seemed as if she was going to try to push her down.
"Ok, harper, that's enough, she didn't trip me" Nathan inturupted while pulling Harper away.

"Watch what you say to any of us. We can break you." Said James unexpectedly. He walks twords us with a look of slight annoyance. He stand right infant of Nathan giving off a intimidating aura.

"Leave us alone. We never did anything to you and if we did, it would have been bad." He added. Nathan suddenly thought that pushing James was a great idea that needed to be acted on. Now James doesn't take hits lighty; he just had to push back.

Suddenly Nathans' friends came over to instagate the fight. The rest of the gang came over silently giving a sign of 'I got your back' to James. Before this got too heated, I kicked James and Nathan in the stomach. That quickly stoped the fight.

"Stop trying to fight" I said looking at James. "Stop trying to get beat up" I say looking at Nathan. "I am trying to go to school in peace. First of all, I can beat your ass. Second of all, I am not the same as I was years ago. And third of all, leave me the fuck alone. I am not messing with you so don't mess with me." I say to Nathan.

At that moment, the bell ring for next period; thankfully the last. I plan to blow off some steam after this. I walk off to art that I had with the twins and Ethan. I got to class and sat next to Ethan and David. We sat infort of a canvas.

"Ok class today paint a picture of how you describe yourself. The catch is that there has to be a question mark on your painting somewhere.  You have the end of the week to finish. I expect a detailed sketch by the end of class." The art teacher said sitting back down.

After that sentence I thought about what I could draw. I'm In a few minutes, I picked up my pencil and started to draw Ethan the car. After I had it perfect, I drew myself standing next to it but as my need self. In the glasses were two question marks. In one hand was a book and the other was a bag of prize money. Around me was other people  staring at me. The actual background was a had reaching for me coming out of a black hole. I don't know why I drew this but it explained my life.

Mr. Brain, the art teacher, walked around the class room; stopping at random students to look at their sketch. He stoped at mine and looked for a God while. I opened his mouth then suddenly closed it.

"This is really good. The struggle of identities can be challenging. Does the hand represent the norm trying  to decide  for you. Oh and does the people staring at you represent the society judging you. Oh I love the whole chaos of  your sketch." He says.

"Thank you and yes it does. I am glad that you understand. " I say.  After that the bell rung for school to end.

I walked out of school to my car where Nathan was standing. Confused I walked over and tapes on his shoulder.

"What are you doing here. I am trying to go home and I don't want to run you over. " I say.

"This is your car? No way that this is your car." Nathan says. He has this dumbfounded look on his face.

"Yea this is Ethan. I won it from Ethan. Now can u move" I say annoyed. I walked  past him and got in the car. Nathan puts his hand on the car right before I leave.

"Wait........" He says.
