The Player And The Nerd •Jiley•

•PART 3•

It was the next day, and James and Hunter were waiting for English class to start.

"What was this girls name?" Hunter asked-Obviously Eldon had mentioned that James has apparently got caught up with someone, therefore missing lunch the day before. This made Hunter a little curious.

"Uhm I can't remember" James told him, whilst kicking a random stone across the hallway. He didn't really care that he was lying, besides Hunter easily bought it since James never learnt any girls names. He only used them for pleasure, not from interest. It wasn't a surprise that he didn't really care about who he was chatting up and sleeping with.

"Yeah bro, when can you ever" Hunter chuckled to himself. Thankfully the bells rang, indicating for next lesson and saving James from Hunter possibly finding out.

Later that same day, the boys waited in the corridors for next lesson which just happened to be science with James favourite teacher. Note the sarcasm. Thankfully it was last period, which always seemed to go smooth sailing compared to the other lessons. The students and teacher always just wanted to get it done with and get home.

However, James had other ideas. He sat twiddling his thumbs, running through his plan and whether he should pull through with it. It was dangerous and he would defiantly get kicked out of school for it. But that's what he had decided he wanted, even if it did mean going to work with his dad. At least he would be getting paid, even if it wasn't much fun. But neither was school. He had all the education he needed, right?

"And I repeat, do NOT mix the two acids. It's highly flammable and needs to be kept away from all bunson burners" the teacher reminded the class, snapping James back into reality.

The room was sounded with scraping of chairs and students setting up experiments. James was working with West, and Hunter was with Eldon. James set up the bunson burner whilst West measured out the correct amount of substances. He had no idea what James was planning to do, and honestly James didn't know if he could go through with it after all...

•The night before, James POV•
I finished packing my school bag for tomorrow. I hate doing it, but I'll do whatever it takes to get an extra 15 minutes in bed. After hopping out the shower and stripping into just my boxers, I lay on my bed and stared up at the ceiling. I had been thinking long and hard recently about who I wanted to be, and what potentials I had. I was known by everyone at school as being the hot athletic guy with the good muscles and being a fuck boy. Being known by everyone and getting to flirt with any girl I wanted was basically my pride.

Maybe, just maybe, it was time to get kicked out of school for good.

It's too risky. I completely threw my whole plan of mixing the chemicals and 'accidentally' setting the lab on fire out the window. I'm not sure if it was from seeing the yellow cctv sticker on the wall in front of me that made me chicken out or the fact that I'm 17 and would probably face servers consequences. I don't know what I was thinking, but one thing for sure is that I'm not setting the lab on fire today.  After all i know id he grounded for life, and if the fire was to have gotten way out of hand and killed someone...I'd be going down for murder.

Do you guys think James will ever get kicked out of school? Or will he finish the year and go onto graduate? Or maybe his plan will get the better of him and he will set the school alight?

Disclaimer:
I know that 17 year olds don't go to school, but If you read the last little part of chapter one that explains..kinda. Anyways let me know what you think, and I start school tomorrow (I would have already started now you're reading this) so obviously don't have as much time to write :( but click the star below to vote and don't forget to add this to your library if you haven't done so yet ❤️
