The addict and the teacherWords: 2631

Charlie walked out of the class, her blood was boiling. That was the person who bruised Amelia. And all she wanted to do was lunge at her. 'Fuck sake' Charlie shouted to herself then punched a locker in anger.

'Oi that's my locker mate' a boy said to her. Charlie just smiled and before she knew it. Her fist swung at the boys face. She knew it was wrong. She knew she shouldn't be taken her anger out on him but she couldn't stop. She punched him again when he was trying to get up. She couldn't stop. When she was about to to land a final blow. She was pushed off him.

'What the actual fuck do you think you're doing' a voice was heard just above a whisper. Charlie tuned around to see Amelia with a very angry look that scared her. She breathed out and stepped back from the guy.

Amelia grabbed her shirt and started to drag her to her classroom. 'What the fuck were you thinking Charlie?' Amelia screamed at her. Charlie just looked down at her hand to see how fucked up it is there's already a big bruise forming. And the skin as peeling and bleeding from where she hit the locker.

'CHARLIE I AM TALKING TO YOU' Amelia screamed again fully loosing it now with her. 'I don't know okay, I just lost it and he was there' Charlie spoke angrily. 'Look I'm sorry you had to see that I really am, but this, I can't help you with this one Charlie. You attacked him and unprovoked with witnesses' Amelia says sadly. 'You're gonna be suspended this time Charlie'.

Charlie put her head in her hands knowing she's fucked up this time. Amelia lent down so she's face to face with Charlie. 'Let me clean your hand up then we'll go to the principal together okay' Charlie just nodded. 'I'm sorry' Charlie mumbled quietly. Amelia just gave her a sad look. 'Right let's go' before they walked off Amelia stopped Charlie and pulled her face in for a kiss. 'No matter what happens I'll be there for you okay'. Amelia's says

They knocked on the principals door. 'Come in, sit down Charlie '. They both sat down and turned to him. 'Look this isn't your first time here for fighting Charlie. You got away with it last time, but I'm going to have to suspend you this time. And I'll have to ring home to let them know what's happened. Charlie tensed up hearing that last bit but just nodded her head agreeing.

'You can go now' the principal says. 'My parents are gonna kill me' Charlie groaned. Amelia gave a sympathetic smile towards the girl. 'I better head home then I'm sorry again for today'. Amelia hugged Charlie goodbye.

Charlie was dreading going home she knew she was in for it and she also knew pro longing it was only gonna make it worse.
