My mum yelled at me for leaving Nate at the park, so I spent Sunday indulging in homework. She says I'm 'acting up.' But I'm not, i guess I'm still pissed about moving but I'm not acting out. I've only been in London for two weeks and going to school for a week. It's not my fault I was somehow mixed up with trouble.

It's Monday morning and I feel so tired. Why can't school be like once a week for like an hour? Life would be so much simpler that way.  I grab my book bag sling it over my torso and walk down the stairs.

I travel to the kitchen and grab a banana and head out. The cool breeze blows by and the sky is cloudy. It begins to precipitate but only a little. I unpeel my banana and take small bites as I walk. I'm not quite sure but I feel so relaxed and content.

I finish eating my banana and discard the peel in the one of the houses trash cans. I keep walking until i reach the school. Once I enter the big building the rain comes down hard. Aren't I lucky? I walk into my maths class and glance at the empty seat next to mine.

Ella.

She's not here. I was hoping that maybe she'll come to class today and officially see for my self if she's okay.  I hear a lot whispers and a lot of the students are glancing at me. What could they be talking about? I sit down and at my desk and take out a pencil and my notebook. Mr. Davis has a stack of papers in his hands he glances down and up and gives a paper to a guy. I'm guessing he's passing back our test.

He comes to me and gives me a disapproving look. "Louis I know you can do better than this." He places my test on my desk. I got a the huge D- scribble with red pen. "Maybe you should get someone to tutor you." He says as he walks away. Great.

Mr. Davis begins the lecture and I take some notes like always.

"Holy fuck it's coming down hard." We turn our heads and Ella is completely soaked. Her brown hair is dripping wet and her boots squeak as she takes each step.

"God how I hate rainy days." Mr. Davis groans. "Ella language please." He goes back to writing an equation on the board. Ella takes a seat next to me and smiles.

"He hates rainy days because I am forced to come to class. I am not staying outside in this rain fuck that." She twists her hair and a few drops of water land on the floor. I nod my head. "How'd you get that?" She points to my eye. My eye is now a dark purple it hurts a bit less but it still hurts.

"Do you not remember?" I whisper to her. She gives me a confused look and shakes her head.

"Oh god did I punch you? Because if I did I am so sorry." I let out an actual laugh. She looks at me weird which kind of makes me laugh a bit more.

"No you didn't. I got into a fight." I tell her.

"You." She gasps. "I can't believe it. Charming got into fight. Who would of known." She giggles.

"Okay Ella I know. It's raining and your only here because you don't want to be stuck out in the rain, but please can you not disrupt my class for once." Mr. Davis says to her.

"Fine I'll just leave. I'll go somwhere else. Sheesh." She mocks and leaves the class. It amazes me that Mr. Davis basically lets her get away with anything. Well then. Class ends and I go to my next classes.

"Louis." I turn around and to find my sister and three of her friends are behind

"Hi Lottie." One of her friends doesn't stop staring at me.  It's very weird. Must be the black eye.

"Do you want to eat lunch with us." My sister asks. It's still raining hard outside and I am not going to go sit at the football.

"Sure." I shrug. I haven't been at the cafeteria once. I trail behind my sister and soon enough we reach the huge room with multiple tables and chairs and various students eating and talking. I walk behind my sister as she grabs a tray and piles on food and I do same. I pay for my meal and we all seat down at an empty table.
