The next day, Skittle walked out from her French class with Miss Foggerty. She was having English next, just as she had done on her first day of high school. She made her way to the English classroom and wondered if Mr Winter was thinking about her and how amazing she was. She went inside and sat in her seat.
Mr Winter was already in the classroom waiting for everyone to come in. He saw Skittle and winked at her.
"Hello, everyone. I'm going to do the register." he said.
Mr Winter proceeded to do the register while Skittle had to deal with the boys on her table.
"Skittle, why do you have such a silly name?" one of them asked her, laughing.
Skittle ignored the question and started to daydream.
"Hello? Anybody in there?" the boy said.
Skittle thought that he was beginning to sound a lot like Casper, so she ignored him even more.
Skittle looked in her English book and saw a comment under her last piece of work.
"Great work, you're very talented." she read aloud, and she couldn't help smiling.
Then Mr Winter went up to the front of the class and wrote some questions on the whiteboard for the class to answer. Skittle got started straight away as usual, while Emma glared at her and shook her head.
In five minutes, Skittle had completed all of the questions. Mr Winter saw this, and he stuck a gold star sticker in her book next to her work. Emma glared at her again, but Skittle couldn't care less.
