Devastation

Chapter 15

I slowly walk out of class tentatively clutching my books.

Where is detention room?

I turn right and immediatly change my mind quickly swerving left. I crash right into Zack, making the remnants of my books fly into the air. Zack and I quickly drop down to get them.

"I'm so sorry I'm soooo clumsy." I mumble. Trying not to stare at how close Zack is. His peppermint tea smell drifts towards me again....

"No, it was my fault. Sorry" he says scrambling for the loose sheets of paper. Our hands brush over each others and we suddenly both look up, his beautiful hazel eyes stare into mine. I want to kiss him. I guess God gets impatient and I'm flown forwards by a person bumping into my back. To my horror I go flying into a startled Zack. I'm lying on top on him, with my forehead on his lips. Remind me to thank god later....

"Oh shit, sorry that was-, I kind of-, I got knocked. I promise I-" I stumble over my words and frantically try to climb off the Greek God I'm on top of still....

"Chill Jules. You didn't drop your books again, so I guess you've learnt from that..." he says and laughs. I laugh with him.

He helps me get up  and he leads me to detention.

"Mr Woods and Miss Brown. I find it ironic that you're late for a detention for punctuality." A fat 'teacher' I haven't been taught by says glaring at us.

"Mr Godsworth, pardon me but I think that's rather unjust as we are only 10 seconds late." Zack says in a posh, pleading voice.

"Sit Woods." Zack dumps his bag on his desk. I just stand there like a bimbo not knowing if I should sit too.... "And you Miss Brown" I sit next to Zack who is giving me a cheeky grin. "Not there Miss Woods. Sit on the other side of the room." I can't help but pout as I shuffle to the other side.

Zack frowns and actually sings out loud "Helllooo from the ootheeerrr siiiiiiiddddeeee."

"Shut up Mr Woods." Mr Godsworth snaps. I giggle and sit down.

For the first 5 minutes Zack and I cover our phones with text books and text...

The conversation goes a little like this:

Zack: I must have called a thousand tiiiimmmeesss...

Me: Shut up Mr Woods

Zack: How rude... How often are in detention then miss Brown?

Me: IDK in my old school ,daily? Depends....

Zack: oooo so you're a bad girl?

Me: Nah just a victim of hormonal teachers.

Zack: haha

Me: So what about you Mr Woods? Are you a bad boy?

Zack: When I want to be...

Me: What's that supposed to mean?

etc............................................

I look up, Zack smirks at me and points at Mr Godsworth. Mr Godsworth is fast asleep. Zack beckons me to come over.

I crawl over as quietly as possible, ignoring the funny looks from the others in the classroom.

Zack gives me a sharpie.

****

Before I can think twice I'm drawing a mono-brow and moustache on Mr Godsworth. I know... real mature. It was fun, though. Zack tied Mr Godsworth's laces together, so he'd trip when he woke up.

Everyone runs out of the detention room. Zack gives me a piggyback to the car.

"We'd better get going," Zack says in the car, "before my mother realises we're late."

We skid out of the car park and drive in the direction of home.
