You think you do but you don't (18)

I got to class about five minutes late. When I walked in all eyes were on me. Not the curious who's that look but the 'Hey look the fag is back' look. Before even walking to my desk I could see that someone has taken my seat. And no I don't mean taken like someone was sitting in it more like it's not even there. All there was was an empty desk.1

"you're late." Mr. Fedrick announced as if I hadn't already known.2

I rolled my eye. "I know that." I said aloud.3

"Care to explain why?" He asked. arms crossed.4

"Cuz she stopped to get some." Someone from the back shouted. Causing the class to burst into laughter.5

"Real funny head." I said as I flicked him off. Making sure Mr. Fedrick wouldn't see.6

"Take your seat." He ordered.7

" No chair." I said.8

" Just go sit, stand, whatever at your desk."9

"Fine." I said and marched to my desk and sat on it.10

"Layla what are you doing?" He asked. His fingers massaging the bridge of his nose where his glasses usually sat.11

"What you told me to." I shrugged. 12

"Get down."13

"Yeah don't rub your gayness everywhere." Jackson said trying to disguise his voice.14

"Why don't you come say it to my face! You good for nothing SON OF A ..."15

"That's enough!" Mr. Fedrick shouted. Scaring the class into silence. He gave me a stern look.16

At that moment I thought to myself. 'What the heck's with this guy? He acted all nice the other day and now he's back to being an . I thought we were on the same wavelength.'17

But without I word I hopped off my desk and stood in the back. Apparently he was having a bad day. And so was I. First thing in the morning and i have to deal with these people. With my arms crossed I watched as Mr. Fedrick began to fill out a paper of some sort. Taking a closer look I saw that it was a referral.18

'I hope it's for that jack .' I smiled to myself when I saw him hand it to Jackson. That smile disappeared when I was given one as well.19

"leave now you two."20

I wanted to protest. To question why. Instead I just stood there staring dumbly at him. He waved me off. So I just left. When I got to the office I prayed I'd get the principal this time and not the VP. That hated me. But no, I got the from hell. And so I was given two extra days of ISS. What a pain.
