Stella

After the presentation in Law class with Hudson, I went to lunch with Issac. Hudson and I had gotten a score of  ninety-five percent, the teacher praised us on the work we did and decided to make us stay in pairs for every other assignment we would do.

I'm absolutely overjoyed it was that percentage because if it was anything below a ninety percent I would be punished.

"...And he has gotten so rude, over the past few days, I mean I wasn't even allowed free time, trust me, it was a failed attempt to scilence me.."

I express myself to Issac, he sits beside me on the bench, listening silently.

"You are going against him Stella" Issac reminds.

"You too Issac" I say to him. "I've had enough of people telling me I'm not allowed to help someone in need"

"But if he is innocent, won't they of course find the evidence, or even the real killer"

There is no point in talking to orhers about this so I just stop, I stop trying to let people see from my point of view. People are stubborn and will think whatever they want, it doesn't matter how much you try to convince them otherwise.

The bell goes off and Issac instantly gets up, "I've got to go, Chemistry"

"Wait" I say to him. "Your bug bite still looks fresh, I thought you said it was nothing"

"It is" He says continuing on his way to chemistry class.

"Uh..okay" I say, even though he's too far away to hear to me.

Unlike Issac, I had a free period after lunch, so I continued eating my fries, which were absolutely delicious, I then moved to my fruit salad which mother packed for me.

"Can I have an apple?" A voice says from behind me.

"You have a thing for sneaking up on people, gentleman?"

I take an apple out of the dish and hand Hudson. It's weird how Hudson and Issac are always showing up after one has left.

Hudson takes the apple muttering something close to a 'thank you' but I couldn't hear clearly.

We sit in scilence for a few seconds, the only sound is Hudson biting the apple beside me.

"Are you ready to back out now?" Hudson says. "Last time, I'll ask"

I chew on my apple . For some reason my father behaving like an bozo was really motivating me to go against his orders.

I swallow, "I'm not backing out this time Hudson" I tell him.

He slightly smiles and bites into the apple again. "How are things with your parents?"

Of course, why didn't I think of talking to Hudson about this before, he would definately understand. I placed my apple down explaining what happened last night and about how he was ignoring me.

"Your father is a fucking jackass, Stella" He responds, I look over at him. Has he finally chosen to use my first name?. "By the way what's 'free time'?"
