Me and Mila were in the changing rooms getting ready for gym.

I was sat on the bench tying my shoe laces when I felt a tap on my shoulder.

I turned around to be met with a orange tanned, platinum blonde haired girl with huge fake eyelashes.

She looked well...fake.

"Hi can I help you" i asked her.

"Hey I'm Kendall" she said and looked around like she owned the place.

"Okay do you need something" I asked her again.

"No but I'm kinda wondering why you dumped a whole bottle of Dr Pepper on my boyfriend" this time she looked a little mad.

"He was being a dick" I told her straight.

I could see Mila from the corner of my eye with her mouth tipped up into a little smile.

"Talk that way about my boyfriend again and we will have a problem" she stepped a little closer pointing at my face.

"Ok and step closer to me one more time and we will have an even bigger problem"I swatted her hand away after I finished signing and talking to her.

She started laughing because I could see her lips up in a moving smile.
Why is she laughing I don't find it funny?

"What are you laughing at ?" I asked after I had enough.

"Nothing, nothing at all. Bye Ella" she continued laughing and walked away.

The fuck.
She knew what my name was the bitch.

"so you've met the queen bitch. She also likes to pretend Ace is her boyfriend but Ace has never even looked at her" Mila turned and said to me.

"it's not like she's going to do anything" I didn't really care. What's the worst she could do?

Mila and I joined everyone else in the gym.

There was a door right next to the gym that led to the school pool. In my school back in England we didn't have a school pool. The only pool we could go to was in a leisure centre about a couple minutes away.

When everyone was in the gym including Ace and his two mates the gym teacher walked in.

"Hello everyone and today we are going to play a game of dodgeball. But it's with a twist so every time you hear me whistle you have to run to the other side collect as many other balls as you can" when he said that I could see some of the boys with their lips moving which means laughing. Immature. "Then run back and continue to throw them at the other team" when he finished everyone went to get into two teams but I went to the teacher to explain to him how i can't play because I won't hear the whistle.

"Mr Wilson I can't do the activity because I'm deaf and I won't be able to hear the whistle" I explained and signed so it would add more to the explanation.

"Ah your the new girl aren't you" I nodded. "I've been told you were deaf so maybe you could just take this period as a free period if you would like"

"Thankyou. Also sir could I bring Mila with me as I can't hear any bells or anyone talking to me" I pointed at Mila who was standing on her own waiting to be picked into a team.
