Missing Eternity
XXIII: Gloomy Morning
Part XXIII: Gloomy morning
I was not in a good mood the next morning
I snapped at one of my teachers and almost got myself detention
"Pants should not be that color"
"hmm?"
I Iooked up and saw an annoyingly pretty face
Platinum Blonde hair that smelled chokingly of hairspray
"Sorry I couldn't hear you over that whining noise"
Nina I think her name was.
She looked at me like I was gum on her hundred dollar shoes.
"Why do you insist on wearing things that look like they came out of a paint ball fight."
I grinned painfully
glancing a moment at my lime green skinnies
"You know what I think you're right, pants shouldn't be bright green, I think !'ll dye my hair this color."
Nina started to retort but was distracted
I didn't have to look up to see why
Dustin
of course
He was talking to Ms. Warbeck
who looked so dazed it almost seemed like someone had knocked her over the head
Oh god not her too
He was smiling for some reason
and was still smirking when he walked to his seat.
A made a point of grapping my text book and sticking it in front of my face
goodness knows there was some where else I wanted to stick it
The noises of teenage buzzing and general rowdiness hovered around me
and my sleep deprived state
meant could barely consentrate
which meant I was exedingly ticked
so when I was called up to the front I didn't think that it was good
but it was worse than I could have imagined
Should have guessed
seeing as she called up both me and, Dustin
I pretended to ignore him.
As if I couldn't feel,
that little giggling thing inside me wouldn't shut up
It like the way he looked the curve of lean muscle, and the odd shock of his eyes.
"Yes mrs. Warbeck."
I couldn't have sounded more guiltly if I had tried
But she didn't look angry
Harrassed yes
mad no
"Hello Laurel"
She sighed
"we just had three officers pull out."
"we're rematching and doubling up"
My stomach dropped
Oh no she wasn't going to take away my shadow assignment was she?
"I'm putting you two together with Detective Wilt"
"WHAT!"
I half yelled,
voice squeeking like a mouse that had just gotten stomped on
Dustin looked happy
A-hole
I calmed myself a little
"Detective Wilt's shadow is supposed to be a commited student with good grades."
That seemed to annoy Dustin
"Hey,"
Mrs. Warbeck rubbed her temples
"Please don't make this anymore difficult Laurel, Dustin has extremely good grades from his last school, and he came to talk to me about joining the shadow program."
I sighed, feeling like some one had stolen all my summer job pay.
