A/n: oh my god I was watching bother bear because I felt like it and I haven't watched in ages and I forgot how much I loved this song HAHAHAHAHAHAH also I wasn't joking when I said my music taste goes from led zeppelin to Mumma Mia (the movie) to hot potato by the wiggles (the old originals not this new age weirdo wiggles). P.s sorry for not updating in aggggeees.
Ashila's P.o.v
"Hey Jimmy." I say skipping up to the elderly man
"Hey kid. How ya holding up?" He asks with looking up. His mind preoccupied with the stack of papers in his hands.
"Much better. Thanks aha." I laugh now noticing Mason behind him with his own stack of papers.
"Hey Mason." I greet.
"You're fathers a dickhead. Just saying." He says briefly looking up at me.
"Oh my god! Did Mason just swear?" I fake shock. Mason looks at Jimmy worriedly almost expecting a smack on the back of the head.
"Watch your manners Mason." Jimmy says absently.
"Don't tell anyone." Mason says ignoring Jimmy.
"I won't. Pinky promise." I say raising my pinky finger.
"Pinky promise." Mason says as he struggles to put all the paperwork on his desk. Once he's sure it won't fall he reaches over and wraps his small finger around my own as Jimmy rolls his eyes.
"Jimmy..." I hesitate as he also puts his paperwork on Masons desk.
"Yeah?" He looks at me curiously.
"I know we can't pick who our family is... but if we could. I'd pick you to be apart of mine." I say absently looking down at my shoes.
"You don't know how much that means to me Ashila." He smiles at me.
"You too Mason." I say seriously before joking "I guess you're stupid cat could even be apart of it." I laugh.
He also laughs then shakes his head. "Thank you. But you're wrong. You can pick your family and it looks like you already have. I mean you came back even though your father took you away... I don't know. Does that make sense."
"No." Jimmy says blankly before smiling. "But I know what you're trying to say. Ash dear, you chose your friends over your father and in this case, it was the right choice."
"So what is all this stuff?" I ask curiously looking past them to the papers stacked messily on the desk.
"Paperwork. Mason and I just finished sorting it all." Jimmy answers for me picking his pile back off of the desk.
"Took foooorrrreeeevvvverrr." Mason whines.
"Don't be such a cry baby Mason." I tell him. Jimmy laughs at the boy behind him struggling to pick up his own pile.
"It did take us a while." Jimmy adds.
"Do you need a hand?" I ask.
"No, we're okay." Jimmy smiles.
"Yes please." Mason pleads.
"I'll give you a hand." I walk over and take just less than half of his pile.
"Thanks." He smiles. I turn around only to trip over a loose cable.
"Ahh! Shit. I am so sorry." I say trying to gather at the paper without crumpling it.
"I think I'm going to cry." Mason stutters out in disbelief.
"I think we can handle it from here." Jimmy laughs at my worried expression.
"I cannot believe you just did that." Masons says, his face still full of terror and disbelief.
"I am so sorry!" I apologise reaching for the paper only to be stopped by Jimmy.
"Go make trouble somewhere else." He laughs getting on his knees ready to sort through the paperwork.
"Sorry." I squeak out again.
"Get lost clumsy cat killer." Mason laughs.
"So so sorry." I say as I step backwards out of the room. "I'm such a clutz".
"Ash!" Tony says from the hallway. He's standing next to a door with all of his essentials out ready.
"Oh hey. What are you doing here?" I ask. I notice his lip still slightly swollen from the all out brawl in the cafeteria. Despite this he was still smiling brightly.
"I have class, it starts in like five minutes." He says looking at his watch.
"But the five minuet warning bell hasn't gone yet." Just as I say this the bell rings. Tony laughs at my annoyed expression. I groan.
"You better get to class Ash." Tony laughs.
"Yeah yeah whatever." I begin running as he chuckles to himself.
"Ash? Class is just about to start! What the hell took you so long?" Ameia says as she sticks her head out of the door and then the rest of her body. She grabs my arm and drags me down the hall after her.
"I went to see Jimmy and I accidentally spilled all his paperwork. It was kinda funny but I felt really bad because it took him and Mason ages to do." I explain as she continues to pull me.
"Were they mad?" She turns back to ask but doesn't stop running.
"Not really. Jimmy laughed but Mason almost cried." I reply breathlessly.
"Aw Mason's such a dork." She says as she stops suddenly at our classroom door.
"I know right." I laugh.
"Come on let's get to class. There's some weird thing with all the head masters or whatever." She pulls me in.
"Coolio bulio." I mumble. The sound of chatter and laughter surrounded us as we made our way to our seats.
"Who the hell is bulio?" She stops confused.
"Dunno mate." I laugh at her expression.
"You're fudge folding weird." She pokes her tongue out me.
"Fudge folding?" I say pushing her forward towards our seats.
"Bulio?" She raises an eyebrow challenging me.
"Shut up." I say a little louder.
"Take your seats ladies and mind those manners." The class goes quite as the voice from the front speaks. It was a man. Standing behind him were two other ladies, one of which were Miss Hawkes. The other two I could only imagine were the other head masters of the school.
"Sorry sir." Amelia sits right away.
"Sorry I'm late. I'll leave early to make up for it." I smile innocently. Miss Hawkes tries to hide her smile at my behaviour but fails miserably.
"Sit down." He says again. Amiea pulls my arm down hard so I'm sitting.
"I bet you're all wondering why we've gathered you here today." He speaks clearly and confidently. I scoff. Gotta bring that ego down a notch.
"Are you serious? This is class...we're required to be here. I mean if I'm not I'll just go." I ask getting up. His demanner flatters for a second as the class laughs before he reasserts himself.
"Sit down Miss Summers." He speaks, his voice quavering ever so slightly.
"Now it has come to our attention that there are a few behavioural issues." The woman behind him speaks up.
"Are you only just realising this now? You do know this is a school for delinquents no?" Morgan asks.
"We will be aligning new classes and formatting new schedules." The lady continues on speaking, not paying Morgan any attention.
"Seriously yo what the hell?" Someone groans from the front causing laughter.
"Language." Miss Hawkes smiles at the boy but gives home a knowing look.
"The new arrangements will start begging next week. So carry on what you are doing for the next couple of days but first thing Monday morning report to the hall and you will be given your new schedules." The man continues on.
"We're students not soldiers." I argue.
"I'd watch yourself missy." Miss Hawkes warns.
"Right sorry Miss." I smile.
__________________________
"That was disastrous." I say to Morgan. The headmasters went through about half the class explaining the new changes. The other half was us interrupting them.
We were half way to our table when Tyler hands me a tray. "Oi take this." He says.
"What is this?" I ask looking at the food.
"Sludge." He simply says. And that was exactly what it looked like.
"Why do you have it? And why did you give it to me?!" I ask confused.
"Well I don't want it." He tells me like I'm an idiot.
"Tyler!" I shout.
"Fine. I asked Eli to get me lunch and he came back with that." He laughs.
All of a sudden I fall into someone and the sludge falls right on their chest. The cafeteria turns deathly quiet. I'm too afraid to look up. "Uh oh." I mumble.
"You did not just do that!" A woman yells. It was the same woman from class. A headmaster.
"Oh my god." I squeak.
"You are in deep shit." Tyler says his face written with horror and disbelief just as Masons was earlier today, only difference was that I wasn't laughing thins time.
"Deep deep shit." Morgan adds. Her face just like Tyler's. I felt like sinking into the ground and never returning.
All of a sudden someone yells "FOOD FIGHT!".
