Couldn't Be More Different (Cashton/Muke)

Chapter 8

Michael's p.o.v

I rode my bike from the apartment to school like I do every day. I woke up today to my dad beating me up. I don't know what happened to make him mad this time. It was going to take me longer to ride my bike because my ankle still hurts. When I arrived to school I met up with my friends. They were all smoking. I joined them of course. When the bell rang we all went our separate ways to class. I walked into English and saw Calum in the front while Ashton and Luke were sitting in the back. I took my seat and got my school supplies out. 

Mr.Wilson: Ok class so for the first half an hour of class you will be reading your books. After we go on with the lesson.

I reached into my backpack and grabbed the book I was reading for this stupid unit. I was reading the Hunger Games. I mean the movie was ok I guess and I didn't know any of the other books. So far I have only read 3 pages. I mean I have only had the book for a day and I am kinda lazy. I got out my phone and listened to my music while reading the book. After reading for half an hour we all put our books away and got ready for today's boring lesson. 

**********************************************************

The bell rang and everyone got out of their seats. I saw Calum get up fast to leave so I caught up with him. I mean we have 3 out of 4 classes together and are kind of friends now. Well I hope he considers me as a friend because it would be nice to have someone else to hang out with. When I walked up to him he smiled and slowed down his pace. He smiled at me and I started talking. When we got to English Calum took his usual spot in the front left corner. Mrs.Clarke can be a bitch but she doesn't care where we sit as long as we are actually in class so I sat beside him. When I did he immediately had a worried look on his face. He grabbed his notebook and started writing.

Calum: * What are you doing? I don't want you to bet bullied because you are sitting with me*

Michael: Calum I could care less about what the others think. We are friends so if they want to say something then they can go ahead. Also do they like do anything aside from mock you?

Calum: *Just forget about it. All they do is say shit about me.*

Michael: Ok.

I could tell he was lying. I mean he looked really nervous. I don't want to make him any more anxious then he already is. If I do see those idiots do something I won't hesitate to kick their ass. I know violence isn't the answer obviously but c'mon Calum won't do anything to protect himself. When class started Ms.Clarke started teaching. I paid attention because we had a test coming up soon. When she finished her lesson we were told what sheets to do in our workbook. When the bell rang that meant it was time for detention. All 4 of us walked outside math and down the hall together. We walked inside the room and saw that the principal was not here to lock us in yet.

Ashton: So what's the plan?

Luke: Before he leaves the room I will ask for something from the desk. When he goes to shut the desk I'll stop it from closing with my leg. When he leaves we grab the key run to Ashton's car and go to the pizza place down the street.

Calum: * I still think this is a bad idea. What happens to us if we get caught?*

Michael: Worse case scenario we all get another day of detention.

Principal: Oh good you are all here. You know the rules I will be back.

Luke: Wait. Could I have a piece of paper from the desk? I want to work on my math while I am here.

Principal: Now look at you actually doing something useful with your time!

Luke's p.o.v

I stood up and walked over to the desk. I watched him open it and saw the key right int he desk drawer. When he grabbed the paper and shut the desk drawer I stopped it from closng all the way. I then thanked him for the paper.
