Something About Him

Chapter 3: Luke Hamilton?

Cynthia's POV

"Are you done with the assignment Miss Jones gave last week?" Madison asked as we walked down the hallway towards our class for our first lecture.

"What assignment?" I asked causally, not paying much attention to her words.

But before she could even reply I stopped in my tracks suddenly as I recalled Miss Jones giving us Maths assignment last week...which I guess we have to submit today.

Oh no.

Jesus Christ!

How did it slip my mind?

"Madi...please don't tell me that it's Miss Jones lecture right now" I asked smiling sheepishly.

"Oh yes, the first lecture is hers only" She replied grinning as she figured that I haven't completed my assignment yet.

Oh what am I supposed to do now? I wondered looking at the huge ancient wall clock hanging in the middle of the hallway as it was just five minutes before the first lecture started.

If I attend this lecture without that goddamn assignment, Miss Jones will eat me alive...no no, rather she'll roast me alive in front of the entire class and then eat me. 

No. I'll not attend her lecture today.

Yeah that's probably a great idea.

"Madi..." I called out extra sweetly.

"Yeah" She replied giving me a weird look before her eyes widen with realization as she figured out the evil plan in my head.

"Oh no no don't 'Madi' me. I'm attending the lecture and so are you. Come on" She said shaking her head in denial.

"Madi you are my best friend right...come on let's go to the cafeteria" I replied trying to pull her along with me by her wrist.

"No Cyn, I'm done with my assignment and I'm not going anywhere and you are not going anywhere either. Do you even realize we have our internal exams next month" She argued.

"Next month! We have plenty of time and you know we both always score good so maybe you can consider this as our day off...a treat to ourselves" I said with a grin.

"No" She replied shortly shaking her head strictly.

"Madison Clark! You are coming with me right now, even if I have to literally drag you along" I said leaving no space for any further argument as I dragged her with me...well not literally.

"Please remind me why am I even friends with you" Madison said as we found ourselves a place to sit.

"Well because I'm awesome. What other reason would you need..." I replied.

"Hey check this out" I turned towards the source of the voice only to see Bethany storming towards us with her fastening breath.

Bethany Hemsworth...well...you know she's that type of girl who knows everything about everyone...from the smallest to the biggest things happening in the school, you just ask it and she knows it.

She's basically the gossip queen of our school.

But that's not all that she does...wait wait, I mean she's not exactly your 'typical' gossip queen, she somehow manages to score well in exams which means that she's smart as well.

But most importantly she's an amazing friend and I know she's good at heart...which is what makes her different from your typical bitchy gossip queen.

I mean yeah people in our school think that she's a bit bitchy, though the majority of people who think this are mostly girls, but that's not true...I can tell that much because I have known her since...like since we were in diapers.
