"School without Shelly is peaceful," Lisa said, closing her locker.
"Yeah, but somehow it's dry, I mean, there is no one to banter words with." I said, flipping through my geography text book.
"You miss her, don't you?" Lisa teased and I rolled my eyes.
We entered the class and settled down, few seconds later Nathan and Ethan entered and joined us.
"Hey baby," Nathan said and kissed Lisa.
"Come here pookie," Ethan said, dragging me up from my chair.
I stood in between his legs and he wrapped his hands round my waist, "Did you miss zaddy?"
"Of course I did," I replied and kissed him.
Zoe and Chloe entered the class after four days of not coming to school, the once peaceful class became noisy, with everyone asking of their whereabouts. They stared at us for a while and sat down on their chair.
I and Lisa unknowingly burst into laughter.
"Yo! thought you two were on a loyalty break for Shelly?" I asked.
"Mind your business bitch!" Chloe warned.
I stood up, clenching my fists. I walked up to their desk and sat on Chloe's desk facing her, her eyes widened as I lifted her face with my index finger, a smirk spreading across my face.
"One more curse word from you and you will find yourself pleading for mercy at the principal's office and trust me, you know what I can do."
Chloe stared daggers at me and hissed, of course that's all she can do.
"I don't know how you did it, but trust us, you will definitely get kicked out of this school." Zoe said and I rolled my eyes.
"Tell it to your momma, motherfuckers." I said and went back to my desk.
"Seems like, you've got us some rivals." Nathan teased.
"Same old rivals with new tactics," Lisa replied and we started laughing.

I and Lisa were at our lunch table, sharing a plate of meatballs when Diva joined us.
"Hey gurl! what's popping? where have you been this whole time?" I asked, turning to Diva.
"Library, library, library." Diva replied and we started laughing.
"Seriously, I still don't know why the library teacher, of all the students chose me to be her student assistant, I mean, I've been arranging a million books since morning!" Diva complained.
I tried hard to suppress my laughter but couldn't and so I burst into laughter, making Lisa to laugh along.
"Oh! my bad, sorry sweetheart, at least the teacher could have chosen this big head here." I said, pointing at Lisa and she rolled her eyes.
She collected the meatball I was about forking into my mouth and covered the plastic plate while frowning slightly.
"Hey! c'mon!"
"This big head has chosen not to share her lunch with you, if you are really hungry go and join the queue" Lisa said and Diva burst into laughter.
"Zen, why don't you have your own lunch?" Diva asked.
"Well, I wasn't hungry until I saw Lisa's meatball."
"Why don't you go get your own?" Diva asked.
"Meatball shared together tastes better than meatball eaten alone," I said and Lisa rolled her eyes.
"Okay then, let's eat together!!?" Diva said, picking up one of the forks on our table and Lisa immediately held her food tight.
"Ahh!! not my food!! you girls can't be serious."
I and Diva forcefully collected the food from her and started eating it, I forked in some meatballs into Lisa's mouth and she ate it while still frowning playfully.
"My cupcake, don't you frown, okay? Nathan will buy ice cream for you." I teased and we all burst into laughter.

"What's popping in school?" Shelly asked her friends over the video call, while sipping through an orange juice.
"Guess what?" Chloe asked, sitting on her bed with her headset on.
"That bitch has finally been expelled?" Shelly asked, her eyes widening in anticipation.
"I wish," Zoe said reluctantly, while laying on her downstairs sitting room couch.
"Derick took the fall for her." Zoe said and Shelly immediately spat out the juice in her mouth.
"No way! Derick is such a dick!" Shelly said, clenching her fist.
"I just don't get how that bitch easily gets out of trouble." Chloe said.
"I despise her so much," Zoe added.
Shelly chuckled and stared at her friends, a mischievous smile spreading across her face.
"She should fear my return,"
"That's our Voltage queen!!" Chloe and Zoe hailed in unison.
Chloe's mum called her from downstairs and they ended the video call as she left for her mum.

"Hey buddy! what's popping over there?" Nathan asked over the conference video call between him, Ethan and Derick.
"Nothing much, just one of those nagging from my old man." he replied.
"Not surprised at all," Ethan replied with a smirk on his face.
"Can you imagine, my popcy wants to send me to a boarding school." Derick said chuckling.
"As long as the school provides you with lots of pretty girls, I don't think you'll have any problem with that." Nathan said and they all burst into laughter.
"I don't think there'll be any girl that can interest me as Zen does," Derick said winking at Ethan and Ethan glared at him.
"Spill it Derick! you've always wanted her," Nathan said and Derick chuckled.
"Who wouldn't want a gorgeous girl as Zen?" Derick asked.
"I'm glad I claimed her first." Ethan said and they all burst into laughter.
"Just kidding bro, she's all yours." Derick said, giving Ethan a wink.
"But seriously man, we really do miss you." Ethan said.
"Have you guys gotten my replacement yet?" Derick asked.
"Hell no! we can't just replace you with an immediate effect as though you meant nothing to us." Nathan said.
Derick stared at them for a while and chuckled.
"You sure..or you guys hasn't just gotten a perfect player as me"
"And who said that you're perfect?" Ethan asked sarcastically.
"Zen did," Derick teased.
"Fuck you!" Ethan coursed and they all burst into laughter.
Just then, Derick's maid servant came in, informing him that dinner has been served, with that she turned around and left.
"What?" Derick asked his friends, who were grinning from ear to ear.
"What a sumptuous meal, you've got as a maid servant." Ethan said.
"Fuck you bro!" Derick replied laughing.
"Swear you haven't screwed her before," Nathan said.
"Oh fuck! you guys are obviously high on something." Derick said and pressed the end call button, leaving Ethan and Nathan laughing to their selves.
