Tori's P.O.V

*After School*

Right after school ended, Fred went straight home. We all insisted that we go with him but he didn't want to "bother anyone" and we crashed at his place yestarday as well so he felt guilty.

Me, Nat, Harp, Francy, Nathan and Alex were hanging out at our usual spot outside school.

"Hey, wanna go to Rob's?" Alex asked, raising his eyebrows.

"Yeah sure, why not. Everyone okay with that?"I said, looking at each of them, one by one.

Eveyone mumbled a "sure" or "yeah" under their breath.

We picked up our bags off the ground and started heading towards Alex's car.

"Wait, don't you guys have detention?" Alex gave me and Harp a questioning look.

Shit.

I widened my eyes and looked at Harp, "OH SHIT! WE'RE ALREADY 20 MINUTES LATE. FUCK, WE'RE DEAD THIS TIME."

We didn't waste a single second, didn't even say our goodbyes and just ran off.

By the time we reached the classroom where detention was supposed to be held, we were panting.

I slowly opened the door to reveal Mrs.wallis, aka Grumpy. And boy was she looking, you guessed it- Grumpy. I mean there's a reason we call her that.

"Mrs.Wallis?" I ask in confusion.

"That would be me." She crosses her arms over her chest, glaring at us.

"Doesn't Mr.Smith usually take detention?" I chuckle nervously.

"Well, Mr.Smith is sick and since I was the one who gave you detention, I thought it would only be fair if I volunteered in his place." She says the entire thing in a single breath, which seems revised if you ask me. Which means Ian, being Ian, must've asked the same question.

"And may I ask why you two are 20 minutes late?" She raises her eyebrows with a sigh. She didn't even seem mad at this point, just tired.

"We got a little um.. carried away and forgot about detention..." Harp said, with a nervous chuckle.

"Whatever. Just take your seats and do whatever you're supposed to do in detention." she sighs.

We quietly make our way towards the end of the classroom where Ian is sitting. We both take our seats at the farthest left corner, which was opposite Ian because he is sitting at the right corner. His usual spot. Or atleast the place where he sat the last time we had detention together.

Ian mouthed a "hello ladies" towards us, with a smirk on his lips.

I rolled my eyes and Harp passed him a smile.

Since Harp and Tyler "hang out" a lot nowadays, Tyler introduced her to all of his friends - including Ian, so Harp and Ian weren't exactly friends but they weren't strangers either.

"Excuse me. Ms.Reed and Ms.West, you can not sit together. First you girls arrive late and now you're going to talk instead of studying. I've known you two since freshman year, so no excuses." She states.

"But-" she cut me of saying, " I said no excuses."

I sigh and, both Harper and I stand up.

"Ms.Reed, come sit at the first bench so I can keep my eye on you." She says, almost in a smug way. This woman is truly terrifying.

"And Ms.West, you can sit beside Mr.Russel." she huffs.
