Crazy bird, she was. Only flew when no one watched. None could keep her. All failed to train her. Funny name she had. Time.-Unknown

Clarke Augustan

Physics was as horrible and boring as ever. Rasta Mackeli just loved picking on me in class. She had just started her 'Let's torture Clarke' session for not attending Detention but was soon interrupted by Aaron walking in late to class. I didn't even know how Detention works but it already sounded like a waste of time. Back in the camp, you did something wrong, you had to pay for it instead of sitting in a classroom for an hour extra in school.

Aaron was late and I still don't know how he escaped her wrath.

"Sorry ma'am, coach called me for last minute preps. Sorry?" He apologized giving the most adorable face ever. I mean, I would have excused him for being late but as a teacher, Rastha shouldn't have been partial.

"Get in." She said sighing.

What the hell just happened?

Ladies and Gentlemen, this right here, is the perfect example of partiality and double standards.

He winked at me as he sat down in his seat as I remained standing with my jaw on the floor at the injustice taking place in front of me.

"Sit down, Clarke." She finally let me sit knowing she'd be in trouble for being partial if she continued to punish me while she let Aaron get away with it.

"Where were you?" Dan asked Aaron beside him.

"You really want to know?" Aaron questioned back cockily with a smirk.

"Slut." Dan muttered, and just like that their immature bickering started.

"Shut up. Just because you ain't getting any action!"

"Dickhead."

"Pussyfoot."

I heard a girly gasp in return and I'm betting my life on it was Dan.

"Assh-"

"Shut the fuck up!" The usually quiet nerd behind me snapped at them, surprising both the idiots and me. The three of us turned back with wide eyes and jaws to stare at the guy in surprise. I snickered as I realised what happened and immediately received glares from all three guys. I quickly shut my mouth and turned away before their glares could kill me. I was so surprised and proud of the nerd behind us. He never cursed, he was rarely outspoken but damn, today he had the audacity to snap at Dan and Aaron for their idiocy.

Someone had to shut them up.

Art was supposed to be better than physics but so far, it caused me a greater head ace than phsycis ever did.

"We are doing still life, so you have to use water colours." Aaron tried reasoning with me again as he rubbed his forehead. I don't know why he was getting irritated, as far as I know I was the one who was refused to use colours and paints of my wish. They were withholding me from my creativity and freedom of expression.

"But acrylic is so fascinating! I want acrylic-"

"It's fucking still life."

"And I'm using acrylic."

"NO. Just take the bloody water colours and come with me." He snapped scaring me a little.

"Can't I paint something else?" I asked with a pout.
