“I don’t” stated

“Ok and I wont undermine you on it” Tina stated “I think her being grounded for a week is good enough considering you’ve took her phone and laptop off her and gave her Jess’s chores”

“Ok” Bette smiled

“And when the grounding is up, Jace is allowed near the house and you will be nice to him” Tina stated

Bette smiled “He was terrified in my class today”

“Baby you are horrible” Tina laughed

“Oh I can be, if he hurts Lisa he will see horrible” Bette stated

“It was Lisa who got him drunk” Tina stated

“Your kidding?”

“Nope she was trying to act cool” Tina explained

“Well it backfired”

“Jess me and you need to have a chat” Miss braidey smiled

“We do? I haven’t done anything. well anything that I know about and I sure as hell aint admitting to anything”

“You are always so defensive, how do you put up with her?” Miss Braidey asked Carmen

“You learn to block out her silliness” Carmen joked

Jess looked hurt.

“I need you to do something for me”

“Explain” Jess said shocked

“I need you to play drums in the school musical”

“Me?” Jess asked “I’m a guitarist”

“You’re also a drummer and that’s where I need you”

“Is this going to take up loads of my time?” Jess asked

“Yes but I’d be super grateful and you know as well as I do I’m your favourite teacher” Miss Braidey smiled

“Who’s playing guitar?”

“My Husband”

“FINE!” Jess snapped “But weekends I dont do because its my time with Carmen”

“Deal” Miss Braidey smiled

“Lisa where’s your homework?” Bette asked

“Funny story really!” Lisa snapped

“Oh I’m sure it is” Bette stated sitting at her desk un amused

“Jess has my bag and I have hers” Lisa stated “She was too busy rushing about like an idiot this morning that she lifted my bag and that idiot wont notice till home time”

“Have you did your homework?” Bette asked

“YES obviously, it’s only Jess that doesn’t know the meaning of that word” Lisa snapped

“What is up with you today?” Bette asked

“Nothing” Lisa sighed “Can I go? I’ll bring my homework at lunch when I get my bag of Jess”
