As I sat in the classroom, desperately trying to pay attention to the lecture, I
couldn’t help but wonder if my teacher’s voice was secretly a lullaby
designed to put us all to sleep. My teacher’s name was Mr. Duckett, and he
was one of those teachers who were way too young to be a teacher. Sure, he
was old enough, of course. Had his degrees, whatever he needed, but his
personality? Well, he had the personality of a teenager.
“Rebecca! This isn’t a beauty parlor, put your makeup away and pay
attention. Do you even know what class this is?” he asked as he walked
over toward the girl and pressed his hand against her desk. I noticed with a
chuckle that she had the wrong textbook out and it was upside down and
covered in different variations of makeup vials and powders.
Rebecca was one of the cheerleaders and showed it proudly by being one
of those girls to constantly wear their uniforms every day all day long. As if
we would forget she’s popular if she were to wear the same regular clothes
as everyone else. “English class, of course,” she said, splaying her hand out
to indicate the textbook underneath her flood of products.
He snorted with a shake of his head at her as he pointed at the board,
which held different mathematical equations. “Maybe all those products are
getting to you. Let’s leave the chemicals out of the classroom,” he said as
most of the class gave a halfhearted chuckle. She was popular, so they
didn’t try too hard to laugh at her misery, but if it was someone like me who
was getting cracked on, they’d probably be rolling out of their seats and
dying on the ground. Rebecca ignored Mr. Duckett and continued to paint
her nails while he went to the board and resumed talking. I continued to
stare at the clock, wishing it would go faster so I could be out of here. I
never really was one for math class. It was easy enough that I could get
about a C without really trying and that was good enough for me.
A little rectangle-shaped paper popped onto my desk, and I turned
towards the sender, quirking my eyebrow at her in surprise. My best friend –
my only friend actually- Isabella looked at me with an impatient glance, her
brown eyes already growing frustrated as it took me longer than a second to
pick up her note. I sighed, already knowing what it was about and dreading
it, but still opened it anyway. Of course, it was covered in the recent picture
she’d been messing with. Isabella was a tagger. Her artistic nature was what
drew us together at the start of high school.
That, and the newness of it all. I had not been popular in middle school,
but I had a few friends here and there. That was until I accidentally hurt
Roan, and everyone turned on me. So, when high school started, I was sure
I’d continue having no friends until Isabella transferred in.
