A couple days past. Today was Thursday. I had not spoken to Michael since Tuesday. The day when I said those things. I was in French today, which I hate. Also Michael and his mates were in my class. We had to do a French conversation with a partner. I was left with no one, so I had to go in a three with Luke and Ashton. Great. "Hey Carmen, or should I say bonjour?" He giggled. Cringe. "Hi" I said but I couldn't help but blush. Ashton decided it would be "fun" to shout to Michael and Calum "Carmen said you are weirdos and you look kinda hot" what did he actually say! I blushed wildly whilst the others laughed like hyenas. "Carmen, Ashton, Luke, Michael and Calum. Stay behind after school detention with me!" Mr Gree said. The class oohed at the fact that I had a detention. I could have joined in I was in as much shock. Why would they do that to me? I was now certain that I wasn't going to be friends with any of them.
Once it was lunch I told Beth about what happened. She was right the other night when she said that they were frenemies. They walked over and Ashton opened his idiotic mouth to say something when I got up and walked away with Beth.
It was now the end of the day and I had to go to detention, it was only us five there. We all sat in the corners and Michael, in the middle of the room. We had to write an essay on "why it is wrong to shout out aloud in class." Once the dreaded detention was over I grabbed my bag and threw it over my shoulder. The four boys behind me were very apologetic. I tried to work through my hysteria ignoring them but it all came out. " you are all idiots! You had to not only embarrass me, but turned my impression of you! I-i ...." And then the tears were flowing from my eyes. Luke went and put his long arms around me to comfort. He whispered sorry and you could tell he was honestly meaning it. I wriggled out of his grip and walked out the building.
It was pouring down and since Beth drives me, I had to walk. I was frozen. I didn't have a coat so I only had a t-shirt and I was going to be drenched. I walked about two minutes when a car pulled up beside me. My immediate reaction was to run, so I did. The car then reversed abc I could here a familiar voice. Michael's. Ashton said to me to get in as it was the least he could do. I could turn fowb this offer, so I did.
I was squashed in between Michael and Calum. Aston went and put on Sleeping with sirens 'if you can't hang' I found myself gently singing against the contrast of the music. When a ghostly silence was all I could hear. "Wow! Did you, I mean wow!" Calum said. They had heard me sing and I could help but a blush creeped onto my face. A giggle escaped its way from Luke's lips. Whereas Michael just ignored everything that was going on. "Hey Michael. Don't you not think that Carmen is a great singer?" Ashton asked. He just mumbled under his breath. The tension lay thick between us. Ashton dropped me off outside and I got out the car, having to squeeze past Michael." Bye!" They all yelled in unison, except Michael. Jeez, can't he just let it go?
