Chapter 4- Detention
1266 Words
Amelia's POV
My first and what I thought to be last detention had started.
It was just Luca, the head teacher and me.
"Sir please can I step out a minute to call my brother?" I asked the head.
"Sure, but be quick," he said
I wandered outside, pulling my cell phone out.
I dialed my oldest brother's number.
He picked up almost instantly.
"Where the hell are you?" asked Clayton
"Hello to you to bruuuder" I said jokingly
"Lia, stop it this isn't a joke, where on earth are you, I'm meant to be looking after you while mum and dad are gone" he grumped at me.
"Calm down Clay, I'm in detention at school but Adalyn is driving my car to her home because she caught the bus so I’ll walk home after detention." I rambled out
"Wait, did you say you’re in detention!" he exclaimed
"Yes, I’ll explain when I get home" I said
"You better, Amelia Jane Messer in detention, never would I have guessed it" he said.
I could hear the disappointment in his voice.
It wasn't because he expected me to always be perfect and that I was never allowed to make mistakes.
I guess he just wanted me to learn from his.
"Bye Clay," I said
"Goodbye Lia, come home as soon as detention is finished," he said
"M'kay" I said hanging up
I slipped my phone back into my pocket and went back inside the classroom.
I sat back down at my desk and got back to work.
The minutes ticked by so slowly and Luca just sat staring at me.
Every time I looked up at him he would smirk or wiggle his eyebrows or blow me a kiss.
"I'm going to a meeting now, it’s not the end of your detention yet, you still have half an hour." said The headmaster
I nodded and Luca grinned.
"I am only down the corridor though so I can still hear you, and if you even think of leaving early I’ll give you detention for the rest of the semester," he said as he walked out the door.
Luca made a rude hand gesture at his back as he left the room.
I looked back down at my books and papers again.
I was working.
Luca wasn't.
I was deeply engrossed in my essay on my new PE project.
I was an ex-gymnast so I had done some research on the power of gymnasts.
It was actually quite amazing how unbelievably powerful gymnasts are.
Luca didn't think so.
"What is this rubbish" he said reading over my shoulder.
He was sat at the desk beside me.
"My PE essay on gymnastics" I scowled.
"Why gymnastics shorty?" He asked
"I used to do gymnastics, I wasn't particularly bad either I suppose" I smiled
"Gymnastics for shorty, that's cute, what do you mean by not that bad?" He asked
"State champion at 16" I smiled
"Bullshit" he said grinning widely
"No, I'd show you the medals as proof if I had them here" I said
"Where are they?" asked Luca
"Home" I said
"Well I’ll come see them after detention then shortcake" Luca said
"Um, no you won't, you can't just invite yourself to my house" I said
"Don't worry your cotton socks shorty, I'll just drive you home after detention?" He said.
"I have a car" I said.
"Nope, Adalyn has your car" Luca smirked
"Oh s**t" I said face palming myself.
"I'll drive you"
"I'll walk" I replied
"It is raining" he said
I scowled and moaned as I looked out the window.
Sure enough it was tipping it down and there was no chance that I could safely walk home in the awful weather.
"I'll drive you" he said again a little more forcefully.
"Fine" I sighed
"Good, then that's settled shorty" he said
"Yep, you always get what you want don't you" I said.
"Usually, but sometimes it takes a little more effort but I usually do what I want, get what I want" he said.
I scolded as he said this.
Of course he got exactly what he wanted all the time, he was good-looking, popular and rich.
"My little sister does gymnastics" Luca said changing the subjects
"Oh, I didn't know you had a little sister" I said
"Actually nobody does, apart from Will" he said
"Not even Skyler" I hissed
"No, not even Skyler" he said shaking his head at my comment on the leader of his fan club.
"Why don't you tell people about her?" I asked
"Well Nora is very ummm special and I don't want anyone judging her so I protect her, she is only three and I, umm yeah" he mumbled.
My heart melted as Luca blushed slightly, could it be that he actually had emotions.
"What is she like?" I asked
"Perfect" he sighed "She isn't my full sister, only half but she is my everything no matter how much blood we share."
I nodded and pulled my hair out of its fishtail braid that I had put it in this morning.
"She is very small, but she has such a massive personality" he smiled thinking about his beloved sister.
I nodded again running my fingers through my hair gently then I let it fall to lay around my shoulders.
"Beautiful" said Luca.
"I bet she is" I said
"Oh yes Nora is as well" he grinned and I blushed.
"Almost time" I said looking bad down at my essay.
"Yep, you should probably do some work" he grinned
I shook my head and smiled.
About ten minutes later the headmaster came back and dismissed us giving us another lecture on behaviour and silly pranks.
"I hope to never see you in detention again Miss Messer" said the headmaster as I packed up my bag.
"Yes sir" I said
"As for you Mr Millar I’m pretty sure I’ll see you tomorrow" said the headmaster
"Sure thing Al" grinned Luca
"Luca Millar, I have already told you before not to call me Al" grumbled the headmaster
"Sorry sirrrr" said Luca mockingly.
The headmaster just shook his head and left us.
"Shall we?" asked Luca
I nodded following him out the class room.
"That bag looks heavy" said Luca as we walked
"It is" I moaned
He pulled it of my shoulder and slung it over his own shoulder.
"Hey, you don't need to carry it for me" I said trying to take it of him again.
"I got it shorty" He said to me.
"Fine" I said
"So I told you about my sister, what about you, you got any siblings?" he asked.
"Yep, three older brothers" I smiled
"Oh that’s scary, where are they" he joked looking around warily
"Behind you" I grinned and he laughed openly.
He had a laugh that really warmed you on the inside, it was quite contagious.
"Out we go" Luca said holding the door open for me.
"Yep" I said popping the p.
We ran outside to Luca's car as it was still raining heavily.
I sighed as I clambered into the large pickup truck.
"Second time you've been wet because of me today isn't it short stack" Luca grinned
I shook my head as we drove out the school parking lot.
"Your always gonna comment on the fact that I'm short, aren't you?" I asked
"You can count on me shorty" he showed me a stunning white smile "you can always count on me."
