In detention:
The teacher holding us as prisoners in detention was Mr.Bowers. Just great. The teacher that hated me is the one that is going to to lecture me. And to make matters worse in class today I got "in trouble." for forgetting to do the top down web. It was so embarrassing.
"Today you are in detention." Mr. Bowers lectures.
"Obviously." I mutter. Mr. Bowers hears my mutter and glares.
"Riley Evans you will have to speak up as my hearing is not what it used to be." I suddenly get filled with courage.
"I said obviously we are in detention. Where else would we be leaders club?"
"Think before you speak child. Now if you would let me finish." I clench my fists in frustration.
"You children are in detention today because you have made some idiotic decisions in your time." A guy in the back scoffs.
"We aren't children we are 17!" This comment makes Mr. Bowers laugh.
"17 is still a child ignorant little boy." The boy chuckles.
"Little boy?"
"Yes you are a child." Mr. Bowers insists. "Now I have to leave the room. If I hear of any foolishness you will be owing me more time." Mr. Bowers stares at us for a little while then leaves the room. Everyone immediately starts chatting. I sit in my desk just waiting for the time time to be over.
After detention.
I walk out the doors of my school. The sun is already starting to set. It is currently 5:30. Waiting on the sidewalk for me is Asher. I walk towards him. "You waited for me?" I ask.
"Well I went home are a bowl of soup then came back." I laugh.
"Come on let's go back to my place."
"I would love to but I have to take care of my mom."
"Oh okay. You know your welcome anytime right?"
"I know." I answer.
We walk down the sidewalks of NewYork. Asher makes a few glances at me but quickly looks away.
When we finally reach the apartment we part ways.
" See ya tomorrow." Asher calls with a wave.
"See ya!" I call back.
When I open the door to my apartment what I see makes me fall to my knees.
