CHAPTER FOUR❤INTO THE SQUAD

We arrived in school early and let me tell you it felt weird being the only new kids in school.The school Principal who had an amazing tan by the way gave us a quick tour and showed us our respective classes.I was split up from Via when some of her friends from the skatepark invited her to join them on their walk to class. When the bell rang, I was surprised to find myself in an empty hallway which was bubbling with kids just a minute ago.I strided to my class majestically and found the classteacher already in.

"Young man!You are already five minutes late for class.Unless you don't know who I am you would know how much I hate latecoming."She said angrily.

"I actually don't know who you are.I'm new here."I said expecting her to understand.

"That gives you no right to be late for my class!What is your excuse young man?"I freaked out all at once thinking of something to say.

I couldn't say I was just wandering around the school cause she looks like a tempered teacher and I would most definitely not want a punishment on my first day.

"I was in the Principal's office finishing some paperwork if you know what I'm saying."I lied and formed a fake smile expecting her to cool off but I think I just turned on the heat.

"I'm really sorry I didn't mean to offend you I just lost track of time."I apologize and said the truth bowing my head down.

Fortunately she cooled down and smiled at me.

"Its all okay please,introduce yourself and then take a seat,"she said softly.

I like her,I guess we have one thing in common.We both have a short temper and a very understanding personality.

As I faced the class,I noticed a group of guys at the back mumbling about something.My eye caught the one they call Sparta. The leader of the so called Scooter Squad. He looked at me deep in the eye and made a proud face or was it just his normal  appearance I couldn't tell.

"Hi.My name is Christopher Reece.I just moved here and I'm happy to start schooling here, thank you."

They started clapping as I took the only available seat at the front.The class was lit.I found out that the classteacher was called Mrs. Charlette  and that she was actually kinda funny.We didn't study that lesson,we were busy reviewing the school rules and regulations.The  class was super active and so was I.It was all very interesting,everybody looked cool and I started to wonder how on earth was I suppose  to fit in and become popular when everybody looked cool.

Before it was time for recess which is simply a break,Mrs Char announced that the music teacher was transferred and another teacher from Canada was replacing him.I think this is what my  dad was talking about, something about a music teacher exchange program or something like that.

A lot of people welcomed me and greeted me even though I didn't know any of them.Most of them were girls but what can I say,they can't get enough of all this cuteness.

After a few more lessons with Mrs Char,it was time for lunch.

I was walking slowly to the cafeteria when I heard someone saying,"Hey Newbie hurry up or your gonna miss French sticks."

I didn't even look at the person I just quickened my pace.I entered the cafeteria and joined the line.

The day's delicacy was rice, meat stew, fruit salad and  French sticks.I sat on a bench and started enjoying my delicacy.Just then,Via appeared and joined me.

"How have your classes been,"I asked her.

"It was awesome,the class was actually kinda fun.How have your classes been?"

"They could have been better if I wasn't late for class."

"Not a very good first impression.That can seriously affect people's opinion about you,"she said with a disappointed look on her face.

Just then Sparta started calling me to their bench and Via was like "Make me proud."

I walked confidently as people looked at me confused.I think its because it was my first day and I was being called to the Scooter Squad's bench.I didn't get it why it was such a big deal.The way they looked at me clearly entailed how popular the Scooter squad was.

"Sup Chris,"

"Sup,"

"I know we got off on the wrong foot on Saturday but let's put that behind us.Let bygones be bygones.We cool"

"We cool."

"I like you,you seem cool.Do you know nobody has ever been late for Mrs Char's class without getting detention but somehow you did,you even made her smile and I respect you for that."

Wow I really thought this was somekind of popular squad with bullies but this conversation is changing my whole perspective about the squad.

"So we've discussed it and we have an offer for you.Chris would you want to join our squad?"

That got me off guard.It was unexpected.A true surprise.

"Would I!"

"Yeah that's what I  just asked."

"Of course.I would love to join."I said excitedly.

"Okay let's make it official.Christopher,I hearby  make you an honorary member of the Scooter squad."Sparta said and they started clapping.

"Thanks guys,so can I come and sit with you guys anytime?"

"Yeah 'dog'  your one of us now."

Wow this is happening all too fast.I can't believe I'm part of the squad now.This is so freaking awesome.
