~CHAPTER 7~

*•*•*•I was attacked by the Grinch. Well, not exactly, but close to it•*•*•*

——————————————————————————

The day's been extremely slow, and we still have one class left, art. I hate that class, I'm horrible at it. Not to brag, but I'm amazing at almost everything... okay, I'm bragging, but I'm telling the truth. Well, almost everything. Art on the other hand, I'm not good at. Anyways, back to topic, we're now on our way to art class, and like this day, I'm slowly I'm starting to hate the last part of Fridays. We were all talking amongst each other until the teacher walked in. She told us that we had to paint something that we love, and I had no fucking clue on what to paint, firstly because I never paint, and secondly, because I love many things. What should I paint? Chinese food? My fucking tube socks? The record player I have at home? Honestly, I could go on and on.

I don't even move a muscle to start painting. Meanwhile the rest of the class has already started with their painting. To my right, Cole is painting a house of rocks in the woods or something. To my left, Chase is painting a freaking beach. I look in front of me to see that May isn't moving either and I sigh in relief until she moves out of the way, and I see that her canvas has a drawing of a cute golden retriever. I sink into my chair sighing heavily and Cole looks my way and turns his head sideways.

"You love a blank canvas?" he says, and I laugh sarcastically.

"Ha ha, very funny. I don't know what to paint; I love many things."

"She doesn't know what you love just paint anything" he shrugs, and I shake my head.

"No, I want to do this right. I'll figure it out." I straighten myself and finally figure out what I'm going to paint. I ended up painting a girl in a colorful rain. I remembered how much I loved to be out in the rain when I was back in Miami.

It's not like I live in the desert, but it rains very little, so when it rains, I like to go out and get wet, splash some puddles, catch the rain drops on my tongue. It's the best. Back to topic, I'm almost finished with my painting the only thing left is another shade of green and I'm done.

"Hmm, looks good." Cole says nodding

"Yeah, I just need a little bit of green and I'm finished." I stand up just as the teacher excused herself saying she will be right back. I go towards the cans of paint and guess what annoying ass roommate is standing right there. You guessed it, Chase, and guess what color he has on his hands... Green.

"Hey... I need the color green."

"Mm too bad." He says and starts to walk away but I stop him.

"You know you're almost done with your painting, and I still need the color green."

"Then grab some blue and yellow and mix them. That makes green, then use some white to make it lighter. Anything else you need help with?" I look at the table and see that there is no more yellow.

"You can help me by giving me the color green. There's no more yellow."

"Again, too bad." He tries to walk off again, but I grab the paint and he pulls at it. At this point the entire class was staring at us.

"Give me the green, please." I say tugging it back. It goes on like this until he lets go of the paint and it falls on top of me leaving me covered with green paint. The whole class gasped, and Chase looks like he's trying to contain his laughter. I grab a can of paint that's behind him and I dump it over his head.

"What the hell did you just do?" he yells at me, clearly annoyed at what I just did, but I truly don't care. He started it.

"You know, pink isn't your color." I give him a mischievous smile. Success.

...

And that ladies and gentlemen is how I ended up in the Headmasters office for the second time today. After I told him that pink isn't his color, he went crazy. He grabbed another can of paint and went to throw it at me, but I ducked just when the teacher entered the room, so she got covered in paint. She obviously got mad, so now we're getting disgusted looks from Astrid. I swear her face is going to stay like that for all the times I'm going to be seeing her this year.

Mr. Cooper came out of his office and sighed telling us to come in. Once we were inside, he sat down and looked at our appearance.

"What happened this time?"

"She threw paint all over me. It's all her fault." Chase says while pointing at me.

"I did not." The headmaster looks at me signaling that he knows that's not true. I look away from him and sigh "Okay, I did throw paint on him, but only because he threw some on me first." I paused then continued. "Besides, if it's anyone's fault it's his because he was the one who threw the paint all over the teacher." We start talking, more like screaming over each other, trying to explain what happened.

"Enough!!" Copper screamed and we stopped yelling. "You both will go to Ms. Jacobson and apologize. After that you will go to the dorms and clean yourselves up. You will have detention for three days, and you will clean up the art room. Understood?" we mumble a yes and start walking out of his office.

We head towards the art room and apologize to Ms. Jacobson. It was kind of difficult apologizing, since we were trying so hard not to laugh at the way she looked with baby blue paint all over her. We then grabbed our things and went back to the dorms to clean up. On our way back we kept fighting until we finally stopped and I started laughing. Chase looks at me like I just escaped the loony bin, but I just keep laughing.

"What are you laughing about?"

"Did you see Ms. Jacobson's face? It was priceless." I double over laughing. Chase start laughing with me, and I get to the point where my ribs hurt, and tears are falling from my eyes. It takes a minute for us to compose ourselves and we start walking again.

...

I was in detention with everyone looking at my hair. After I took my shower, my beautiful blonde hair looked like I was attacked by the Grinch. Well, not exactly, but close to it. I tried to rinse it out the most I could, but the asshole did a good job covering me in paint. So detention sucks. I felt a poke in my back and saw that one of the boys I was playing soccer with the other day was the one who poked me.

"Why is your hair green?"

"An asshole in art class dumped a can of green paint on my hair." I shot a nasty glare in the direction of Chase.

"So, asshole equals Chase Hudson." I nod and he laughs.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Greyson Giovanni" He extends his hand for me to shake

"G.G. Nice. I'm Maddison but everybody calls me Maddie." I shake his hand and smile at him

"Everybody calls me Grey."

"Well then Grey, what are you in for?"

"You first."

"I got the asshole back." He nods his head in approval

"Well, I can't compete with that, but I glued Mr. Waters to his chair with gorilla glue, so he went all gorilla on me and gave me detention."

"Oh yeah, I totally win." I say in a sarcastic tone and he chuckles. We spent the rest of detention talking getting caught very little times because the teacher that's in charge of detention looks like he really doesn't give a fuck about us. We kept talking until Mr. I don't give a fuck, let us leave.

"I'm off to do my cinderelling of the day, see you later Grey."

"Cinderelling?"

"Yeah, as part of our punishment, the asshole and I have to clean up all of the paint we spilled in the art room."

"Good luck."

"Thanks, I'm gonna need it." I wave goodbye at him, and he waves back.

I get to the art room and groan when I see all the paint we have to clean. At least I don't have to go to the janitor's closet and look for the supplies since they were already here. I waited for Chase as long as possible, but I wanted to go back to the dorm again, so I started cleaning. As soon as I finished, I told Mr. Cooper and he let me go. I didn't tell him about the part where I did it all by myself, I have other plans for him.

When I was talking with Grey I found out that we can get take out on Fridays, so that is exactly what I did. Right after I was done cleaning, I ordered Chinese food, and it should be here in about 5 minutes.

As soon as the food arrived, I texted the girls to see if the wanted to come over and hang out. They said that they would be over in about an hour. Hmm, what should I do while waiting for them?

...

"Just take those old records off the shelf."

"I said I'll listen to them by myself."

"Today's music ain't got the same soul."

"I like that old time of rock & roll."

I sang sliding across the room in a large T-shirt, my tube socks, some sunglasses and my loofa as a microphone. I love Tom Cruise. After the food got here, I ate it obviously, and then started doing this the Risky Business routine. I kept sliding and singing like a crazy person until I heard someone clearing their throat behind me. I turn around slowly and raise my sunglasses to see May, Lizzie, Chase, Lucas and Cole all in the doorway trying to suppress their laughter. I smile at them sheepishly and go to my closet to get some leggings.

"Heyyy" I say as they all come in.

"She's definitely my best friend." May said and I laugh at her

"I thought you guys would take longer." I laugh awkwardly

"Yeah, I finished my essay earlier than I thought and Liz was already waiting for me, so here we are." My phone starts ringing, I check the caller ID and see that it's Sebastian.

"Give me a second." Everybody starts to spread around the room with Chase and Cole in his bed, Lucas sat on Chase's desk chair talking to Liz who was sitting in my chair, and May sat next to me on my bed as I answer my phone. "Hey dramatic ass."

"Hey crackhead."

"What's up?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to talk to you since we haven't talked in a while. What are you doing?"

"I was just here in the dorm hanging out with the girls, and I don't know why the guys are here."

"So everybody is there?"

"Yeah, they just got here." I turn the camera in Chase's direction and start to go around the dorm. "Everybody say hello to Sebastian." A chorus of 'hey' and 'hi' are heard through the room.

"Hello. Hey, Natasha told me that there's a parent teacher night coming in two weeks for your school."

"Yeah, why? Wait, how did you know that I just got informed about it today?"

"Natasha got informed on Wednesday, so she told me and guess what?"

"What?"

"We're leaving 4 days early! Want to know why?"

"Why?"

"Because we're driving there, and it takes two days to drive there, but you know pit stops and nights."

"Why are you driving when you can come here by plane?" He smiles at me and then it hits me. I gasp excitedly. "You're bringing Mickey?"

"Yeah."

"Don't fuck with me right now."

"I'm not."

"And Minnie?"

"Yes, we're bringing Minnie too." Everyone around the room looks at me with questioning faces.

"Who are Mickey and Minnie besides the mice?" Cole says and I laugh at his comment.

"Mickey and Minnie are- you know what you'll just have to wait till they get here."

"What? You're really not going to tell us?" Lucas joins in

"Nope, unless you figure it out." I pause "Which I very highly doubt that you will."

"Challenge accepted." He grabs a paper and a pen and start writing down possible things. I turn back to the phone laughing.

"Hey, are you going to bring the things for me to play with Minnie?" Lucas turns my way and crosses some things off of his list.

"Duh. How many of them do you want me to bring?"

"All of them so we can have fun."

"Okay."

"So, it's not a thing. Is it a dog?" Lucas says raising an eyebrow

"Nope, sorry. Like I said, I very highly doubt you will guess."

"Uhm- Natasha just got home I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, tell her I said hi. Oh, and when you bring Mickey and Minnie, can you also bring Pluto?" Lucas throws his pen on the desk and raises his hands up as if he's giving up.

"Will do. Bye, love ya." I laugh at Lucas's actions

"Love ya too, bye." We hang up and I start to talk to May until Lucas interrupts us.

"Is it a fish?"

"No."
