Falling in love with your best friend

Chapter 3

A few days later and Tula's going back at school. She took a few days off to avoid Rich after every thing that happened between them. She rolls over and looks at the time. It's 7am. She better be getting up. She looks at her phone and there's a text from Rich.

To Tula:

You coming back to school today? I heard Dino was back from Greece so I didn't know if you were staying off school again?

To Richard:

Yeah, I'm coming back but only until break. I wanna see Dino as well and school's the last thing on my mind at the moment.

To Tula:

OK well I'll maybe see you at school then?

To Richard:

Yeah you probably will. Look, I need to get ready so I'll talk to you later OK?

To Tula:

OK that's fine. I need to talk to you as well but I'll come round after school if that's OK?

To Richard:

Yeah, It's fine. 

She puts her phone down and gets showered, dressed and her school bag sorted out. She leaves for school just over an hour later.  She hasn't even got through the school door and a teacher yells at her for her skirt being too short and also for being late.

Teacher: Tula, that skirt is too short! I'd like you to go home and change it please. You're also late as well!

Tula: Yeah and I'd like you to fuck off please! As for me being late, my cousin's home from Greece today so you're lucky I'm even here!

Teacher: Headmasters office now! I'll not tolerate being sworn at! I'm not swearing at you so I don't expect it back Miss Contostavlos.

Tula: For fuck sake man that place is like my second home!

Teacher: I'm not arguing! Go!

Tula: Yes, alright I'm going! Will you just chill the fuck out?

Teacher: If you continue to swear at me..

Tula: Then you'll do what you bald prick? Slap me? You know what? I'd like to see you fucking try coz you'd end up on your fucking arse you wanker!

Teacher: Don't even bother going to the headmaster's office Tula. Just go home please!

Tula: I will do.

Teacher: I'm excluding you as well.

Tula: I hate to disappoint you but that isn't your job, it's the heacmaster's job. You can't just go around excluding everyone when it's not your job!

Teacher: I'm a member of staff so I have the authority to exclude students.

Tula: No, you're a poxy fucking teacher who acts high and mighty and thinks you're above the law! Do you know what? You're no one! You're just a poxy teacher in a poxy fucking school! You aint the fucking prime minister mate so don't fucking act like it! Try and tell me what I can and can't do again and I'll put you on your fucking arse you bastard! 

Teacher: *grabs Tula by the jacket so she punches him*

Tula: THAT is what you get when you try and grab me! Try and exclude me and I'll tell everyone your little secret!

Rich comes over to see if she's OK

Rich: T? You alright?

 Tula: Yes, why wouldn't I be?

Rich: What was all that about?

Tula: Oh he's just some poxy wanker who thinks he's high and mighty and he can do what he likes.
