Mr Turner glared at hiasped again "What? Why?" I asked, trying desperately not to cry
"Now to to rest on me
I whi after, then I coy and I was pretty sure I had a quiz And now I had two detentions? Could this day possibly get any worse?
As if answeringback at Mr Turner "You can’t give us detention for nothing! You’re just in a freaking foulit out on us What’s up, Turner, did you not get any at the weekend?"
The whole class had gone quiet,open in shock Mr Turner looked like he was struggling to breathe as he glared at Freddie like he wanted to kill hi at Freddie He turned and pointed atme flinch from the hardness to his eyes "And you Lunchtime detentions for the rest of the week, and after school tomorrow And if I hear one more peep out of either of you two for the rest of the lesson, then it’ll be after school detentions for the whole week!" he said, his voice so low that it alhed quietly to hi to do before he even did it He was one of Luke’s jerk friends and I knew Luke would do exactly the sa shot Freddie was a trouble out of the ordinary for him Me on the other hand…
He sat back down, deliberately slowly, leaning back in his chair, putting his hands behind his head as if he was chilling out His face was innocent and happy as he said, "Peep"
Mr Turner alone to be replaced by the hard stern face of a strict teacher He just as calmly and deliberately walked over to his desk and shuffled his papers there "Very well, Mr Silverton You and Miss Preston will now both have detention lunchtimes and after school for the rest of the week" He turned to me and pointed to a seat that was free at the front "Sit!" he ordered
I obediently trotted over to the seat and plopped down in it,with tears I wanted to protest and plead that it wasn’telse in case itlate to his class, but he just didn’t want to listen
I turned to glare at Freddie as laughing quietly to hi next to him I wanted to kill him, I really did But I knew Luke would do that for me once he found out I couldn’t eat with him all week because of Freddie’s antics I pulled outother than the fact that I had just gotten into trouble at school for the first time ever I scrawled on the top of my notepad, ‘Mondays suck’, then I quickly scribbled it out before anyone saw it That stateht anyway, it wasn’t that Monday’s sucked, it was that the new guy sucked If I hadn’t been waiting for him then I wouldn’t have been late to class in the first place and my academic record would be perfect, the same as always
The rest of the day was just as bad, I was in a seriously foul mood I text Luke to tell him that I couldn’t meet him for lunch and that I had detention after school too As he replied, et to read his response Freddie sat next to er intome little notes with pictures that he’d drawn on the nerd joke
I did nore him, I really did, but I secretly hoped that Luke punched him in the face for this little stunt I didn’t have time to explain to Principal Bennett that I hadn’t found Zachary so he would have to eat alone today, I was pretty sure I’d get into trouble for that too All in all,was disastrous
Gym class wasn’t much better; I fell over and scrapedZachary didn’t turn up to this class either, and I felt so guilty that I wanted to cry evenin the bathrooo or do
Over the course of the inated because I had sat with Luke and his friends this ht to the front doors to wait for Zachary I didn’t want to blaht about it, theirrational, but he was the one that made me sit there and listen to that idiotic conversation this ot ot ed beyond belief and felt like it lasted a lifeti hour of detention spent with Freddie at the end of the day, I headed to the office to go and explain to Principal Bennett that I couldn’t find Zachary I just hoped I would be able to convince her to talk to Mr Turner, and I could get out of the detentions for the rest of the week
