I was sitting in the cafeteria listening to some music . Trying to process what just happened. It's my first day of school and I'm already being called to chat with the teacher. Which is already starting to get on my nerves .

She was telling me that I shouldn't be shy to introduce myself , that if I had any problems I could call her . Of course I'm not going to take take her words into consideration . I'm fine I don't need her help specifically , shes trying too hard right now, why does she even care .

She even dress coded me saying the way I dressed was distracting and might attract the 'wrong' attention. If there was anything that was wrong it was her bright leopard print dress , it was blinding even . She even went as far to tell me if I didn't wear something appropriate I'll have a immediate detention.

I honestly don't know what she meant by inappropriate because I didn't see anything wrong with my outfit .Besides I'm not changing my style because some boys don't have self control. So detention here I come . I asked Ms . Grace if she could put me in another group but she said no .

Stating I needed to learn to put aside our differences and work together , you know all that shit . She also said I'll have to work with them until I graduate high school in about a year and nine months which translates to :

I'm stuck with this Haley dork for life ! She doesn't seem like the working type either. She's just too peppy but maybe I'm judging her too much. To make it worse she gave me this name tag ( with my name written in black marker) not to be petty but this tag was ruining my outfit but most importantly my vibe

I was going for something along the lines of the ' unnoticed goth chick ' but now that I had this on this tag I felt so seen but on the bright side people would call me by my actual name and I wasn't alone Eliana also was also in on this .

Speaking of her she arrived at my table 20 seconds ago to ask me if I can sit with me and of course I said yes .I know it's sudden but I feel like she's the closes thing I've had to a friend . " Hey why do you have this name tag on you ?" She asked " Ms . Grace " I said groaning as she chuckled

My groan quickly turned into smirk " You also get one I said holding it close to her face .Now it was her turn to groan " I seriously have to wear this " " Yep , we'll look like bozos together " I giggled as she sighed " I even might go to detention " she looked just shocked when she heard the news

" Why?! It's your first day " " Shocking isn't it , you'd think she'd be nice to me since I'm new but no , basically in her eyes - I said with emphasis on her - I'm dressed inappropriately and I'm attracting the wrong attention and if I don't wear something less revealing I'll have a detention - I paused - but you know what ?" " What ?"

" I'm rebelling because I'm not gonna change my style because of a bunch of horny teens so I might as well embrace detention " " I'm going with you " she stated " What why ?, you don't have to seriously " " No, I want to besides I have nothing to do on Friday "

" So you decide to spend it by going to detention with me , what fun" I added sarcastically " Come on lighten up you never know what could happen in detention " she said playfully nudging me " Whatever but how are you gonna come with me I mean you haven't landed yourself in trouble yet ?" " oh don't worry about that "
