Immediately after the teacher left the class, Maisie quickly skimmed through the note she had written to commit the new topic she had just learned to her memory. Her two arms were plopped on the table, each holding the sides of her face as she immersed herself in the book.
Sigh... Today, her gossip friends were not in school to give her the latest gossip, so it was boring to her. Especially when she'll be alone, doing everything all by herself.
After some minutes of reading, she closed her book. Just then she felt someone tugging at her hair from behind, she turned to see and a welcoming smile graced her lips.
"Hi Maisie" Xav greeted politely, since the teacher wasn't around, he walked over to the chair in front of her and twirled it so he could sit, facing her.
She breathed out with a sigh, "Xav"
The tall guy took notice, "Where are Isolde and Danisa? Didn't see them throughout the class"
She replied, "They went to a party"
"Those girls" He commented as he slapped his forehead gently with his hand. He then returned his gaze to her.
"By the way, I saw you reading a while ago. Did you understand it?"
She barely nodded, and Xav sighed. "I always tell you to come over for reading but you don't listen"
Maisie wanted to say something when their troublesome friend, Liam came from nowhere, he dragged a chair that was beside Maisie. Causing it to make a deafening noise, they had to cover their ears, whereas the latter didn't mind. He crossed his other leg over the chair and sat on it, his mobile phone in his hands. His full focus was on it as he spoke,
"So that you can fuck her right?" He sneered.
Xav's eyes widened for a split moment, he went closer to him and gave him a knock on the head, "What do you mean? I'm not like that!" He defended himself with a frown.
"Hmm Hmm, don't lie Xav, you always masturbate when seeing her pics" He added with a laugh, Xav charged at him with fury.
Maisie tried to calm them both as she laughed, "It's alright. I trust Xav, he wouldn't do such" She stated. Liam rolled his eyes while Xav sat properly on his seat as he was suddenly calm.
Maisie smiled at him, telling him to ignore Liam. Xav is the school prince, he is one of the richest kids in Fountain High School, and on top of that, he isn't arrogant, he is nice and cool to everyone around him.
Every girl wished they could get a chance to talk to him. Meanwhile, Maisie did nothing and they became friends, it was the wisest decision she had made because he always stood up for her.
Even Liam too, but he was a troublemaker on his own, who liked teasing her and everyone around.
The room suddenly turned quiet. It always happened whenever a teacher entered the class, Maisie tried to grab the attention of Liam who was playing a game on his phone but he was too engrossed, he even had his earpiece on. It was difficult to get to him.
The teacher came closer to them, he was behind Liam who was busy with the phone. The man removed the earpiece from Liam's ear only for the latter to curse,
"Who's that fucking animal?" He turned his head to meet the gaze of the teacher and he gulped the rest of his words down. Panic rose in his chest as he watched Mr Fisher.
"Let's have it" The man smiled wickedly at him, referring to his phone.
Liam cried inwardly as he handed over his phone to the teacher. The man looked at it in wonder.
"Another gadget again. Tell me, is your dad one of the shareholders in Apple company? This is the seventh one I'm seizing from you!" He spanked the boy's head.
This Liam boy was a naughty guy who didn't know more than playing games, he could play games even in his sleep.
If he was intelligent, the teacher wouldn't have been looking down on him, but he was a dunce. Yet he had the time to play games on different gadgets. No one is to blame but his parents for allowing this nonsense, Mr. Fisher wished to have a face-to-face talk with the Father but the busy man never had time for his son.
"Don't come back for it!" He warned before turning around to leave. As soon as he left, the class turned rowdy again. Liam on the other hand sighed in despair, he turned to face Maisie and Xav in anger.
"Why didn't you tell me that fucker was approaching!?" He cried out, glaring mostly at Xav, he thought the idiot had his back.
Xav raised his hands in the air in surrender, he stood up from the chair in slow mode and darted out of the class, while Liam chased him like a dog.
Maisie laughed as she watched them running away. Their relationship has always been like that, they were cat and dog!

Soon, it was time for lunch. The bell rang and everyone dispersed from the classroom for the cafeteria. Maisie joined the long queue that led to the frontier where they would order their food.
She looked around and then saw Liam and Xav already at a table, they were eating and as soon as they saw her, they waved and asked her to come over. She motioned to them that she was going to get her food.
She went forward as the people at the front started decreasing, and when it was her turn, she stood at the frontier and told the chef what she wanted. The man dished out her food of rice and grilled chicken with some rolled omelet and milk.
She smiled and held the tray that contained her food, however, as she was about to leave, someone hijacked it from her. She frowned at him, "That's mine. Give it back" She said.
"Since when did you have enough money for a meal like this? Tell me, did you steal it?" The guy inquired with a smirk, along with him were his friends who were laughing at her.
"What do you want Connor!?" She shrieked.
"I'd like to have your meal, that's your punishment for being a bad girl and a thief!" He smirked at her.
Maisie bit her lower lip angrily. This money, her mother had given her today because she made a lot of sales yesterday. She told Maisie to treat herself well in school. And now, somebody else wanted to take it away from her, she would never allow that!
Liam and Xav witnessed the scene and they hurriedly left their food to meet her, to stop her from getting extremely angry but they were late.
"Poof" A fetid smell erupted from Maisie's butt, it infiltrated the air and ruined everyone's noses.
A.N: Our Fl incurred a curse, she'll fart whenever she gets extremely angry. It has been mentioned in the synopsis.
Hope you enjoy this first chap!
