"What time?" I ask excitedly.

"After you get off practice. I wanted my lovely sister to pick me up." he says.

"You're a liar, but thanks. I'll be bringing the usual crowd with me."

"I have no doubt that you will."

"Enough! Stop this, NOW!" Ooh, that sounds like an angry principal.

"Gotta go Kael, Mr.M just showed up." I say and hang up.

"To my office, NOW!" He yells. He doesn't even have to give names, he knows just as well as us who started this whole thing.

I crawl out from under the table and follow behind Dev as we walk to the office.

When we get there, I take a seat on the chair in front of the desk, Tyler sits beside me, and everyone else squeezes in with us.

"What number is this?" He asks looking at us.

"I'm not even sure, I lost count since last year." Jose says.

"Saturday detention." He says and looks at his computer.

"Hey Jose, now we'll definitely resemble the breakfast club." I say.

"YES! Yes, Yes, Yes!" He says while doing a little dance.

"Sit back down Valasquez." Mr.M says not even looking up from his computer.

Jose sits back down, but still has a big smile on his face while Ray has a scowl.

"Every week. It never fails. There's always two or more of you in here everyday. How do you people do it?" Mr.M says looking at us.

"I seriously don't know, trouble is our middle name I guess." Jay says.

"Yeah, it's like a calling." Ray says.

"Being in trouble is our second nature." Jose says.

"You sound very passionate about this subject. You're all very, very weird." Mr.M says with a smile on us.

"Weird is better than boring." I say shrugging.

"Yeah, the school would be such a bore if we weren't around." Tyler says.

"And it's only the beginning of the school year." Dev says winking.

"Don't wink at me boy, it's uncomfortable." Mr.M says with a shiver.

"Excuse my friend, he's slowly coming out of the closet." I say and Mr.M laughs with me.

"How's your brother?" Mr.M asks.

"Oh he's perfect, he's coming home today. I'm picking him up after practice and you are all coming, obviously." I say looking at my friends.

"Great, your double is coming back." Mr.M says in a playful sarcastic way.

"You might have to extend our list of troublemakers." I say.

"And why is that?" Mr.M asks.

"Cause, the three new guys were in on the food fight." I say casually.

Mr.M mutters something, but it's barely audible.

RIIIIIIING!

The bell sounds above, and Mr.M tells us to leave.

"Kael is really coming home today?" Jay asks.

"Yeah, he called me earlier." I tell her.

"This is gonna be fun." She says and walks away from us.
