I was not feeling good at all, I wasn't wearing my pencil skirt and knee high socks, instead I was wearing my black leggings, I didn't have my shirt tied like a crop top, I had the jumper I customised while on FaceTime with Mitchell, with two cherries and put names on the back. My hair in a messy bun, and barely any makeup on. I was on my period.

I walked into the form K classroom.

"It's fucking freezing in here" I commented as I walked in and hugged myself for warmth.

"Nice to see you too" RemDogg replied.

"Not in the mood lightning McQueen."

"Hah, she called you a car" Mitchell laughed and snapped his fingers. I threw my bag on the floor and slumped down in my chair.

"What's wrong babes" stephen asked. I gave him the 'look' and he simply said "oh"

"Awh, babes are you okay?" Chantelle asked.

"No, I hurt everywhere" I replied. Mitchell put his arm around me and pulled me closer and I put my head on his chest.

"Wow, is it that time of the month?" RemDogg asked. I turned around

"you never ask a girl that, it's rude and disrespectful, and it's down right mean they then worry all day that they've done something terribly wrong. But if you must know, yes and I'm in a lot of pain and don't have much patience so if you could just shut your trap and leave me be that would be great, hunny" I retorted and turned back to cuddle Mitchell as everyone 'oohed'

"Love the jumper by the way" Mitchell whispered.

"Thank you"

"are you alright? Want me to get you somethin?"

"No it's fine honestly, I just need cuddles for now" I smiled and snuggled into him a little more.

"Why are you all in your coats?" Alfie asked as he walked in.

"Your mum turned off the heatin" Mitchell replied.

"She's not my mum."

"She banged your dad, she's your mum"

"You must have a lot of dads" RemDogg laughed.

"Sir I'm freezing will you share your body heat with me?" Chantelle asked as I fake gagged.

"What's up with you?" Alfie asked.

"Nothing" I replied.

"Ooh, that time of the month"

I saw in my peripheral vision Stephen using his hand to fake cut his throat to motion for him to stop talking.

"Fuck off Virgin Mary" I snapped, Mitchell laughed goofily and pointed at him making me smile. Alfie threw his hands up in surrender and went back to talking to the class.

"Why's there no heating?" Joe asked.

"If you must know, the schools having some financial problems." Alfie replied with a sigh.

"Why don't you sell your organs sir? I hear the queens hamster needs a new cock" Mitchell commented making me laugh, he never fails to, I hope that never changes.

"You do realise that if Abby Grove shuts down you'll all go to St. Edwards?" Alfie ignored what Mitchell has said completely.

"The only school below us on the league table?" Jing gasped.

"If I go there the only theatre I'll end up in will be an operating one" Stephen complained.

"It's not that bad babes, Dean Gaffney went there" Chantelle tried to comfort Stephen.

"Dean Gaffney? We've got to raise money!" Jing worried.

"Oh me and Katie can do a kiss and tell about this guy and seeing and Mitchell" Chantelle came up with an idea.

"I don't think Haroun from WHSmiths would sell many papers, except the ones he actually sells. And Mitchell is... Mitchell" Alfie replied.

"Oi" Mitchell yelled making me jump a little. "Sorry" he laughed, I just nodded and smiled a little to see him laugh.

"What if you take that condom you've got in your wallet to the antiques road show?" Mitchell joked.

"Right is it too much to have a serious suggestion?" Alfie complained.

"I got one" RemDogg began.

"Sperm banks, offer 60 quid for a small pot. we pump Mitchell's mum's stomach, a grand easy!"

"That is both disgusting and cruel" I commented, lifting my head from the table.

"That's the grossest thing I've ever heard" Stephen said.

"What about this?" RemDogg asked lifting himself up a little to let out a really loud fart making everyone groan.

"Jesus, do you want me to kill you?" I turned around to face him.

"Go on then try it" RemDogg egged me on. I slapped my hands on the table and started to stand up but Mitchell took my hand and pulled me back down and held it, and did the "thumb thing" (rubbed his thumb in the back of my hand) that I love.

"How about two of us go to work in a casino, mapping out the security procedures, these guys can dress up in disguises and earn the trust of the owner and then Jing and Katie can do some crazy circus shit in a room full of lasers?" Mitchell suggested.

"Ooh, love that" I commented.

"Okay, were not reenacting the plot of Oceans 11, Mitchell." Alfie replied.

"Oceans 12?" Mitchell asked.

"No"

"Oceans 13?"

"You're not really understanding"

"Oceans 14?"

"It doesn't even exist!"

~~

Alfie walked into the classroom and Stephen slid a pot of everyone's pocket money in towards him one his desk.

"What's this?"

"That's all our pocket money"

"Guys, as much as I'd like to I can't buy you booze again"

"It's to help the school, dipshit" I said.

"Woah, someone's pissed."

"Yeah, and someone will have a cracked rib if they don't shut it" I replied. I was pissed off because in the middle of lessons my mum called me (this is the convo italics is the mum bold is Katie)

You can't come home tonight

Your brother has come to visit, he's got his wife and baby so they'll be in your room.

No, you'll figure it out

call ended

So that's why I was pissed. My brother had come to visit with his happy family and I was homeless for however long he's staying. I hadn't told anyone yet and I wasn't planing on it.

"And it has less GCSE's than a premier league football team" I heard Jing say after I zoned out. "It's a dump, but is my dump. And you know what it's like with your own brew sir, I like the smell" Mitchell spoke.

"I don't know wether to be sick or proud" I added.

"Beautiful words there Mitchell, can you speak down to your stroppy girlfriend?" Alfie replied. I began to walk over to kick his ass but Mitchell wrapped his arms around me.

"Woah, feisty girl, okay." Mitchell muttered while trying to hold me back.

"Okay, I'm fine" I said, calming down a little, he let go and turned around to stand back where he was before. While his back was turned, I grabbed the roll of tape from Alfie desk and threw it at Alfie and walked back to Mitchell before he saw.

"Hey!" Alfie said.

"There's got to be a better way"

"Oceans 15?" Mitchell piped up making us all look at him.

~~

We decided to do a fundraiser, and I helped Mitchell with one of his dads stalls. I wasn't in any pain anymore as Mitchell went to get me something to take before helping to set up, he's the best boyfriend ever.

"Here, sir test it out" Mitchell said and threw a ball to Alfie, he threw it trying to knock off tin cans but instead threw it terribly and it hit Mitchell's dad.

"Oh, shit" I giggled.

He then came over and spoke to Alfie, he clearly didn't understand what he was saying so just said anything in reply.

"Alright dad?" Mitchell asked when he turned to walk toward us.

"Hi, Mr Harper" I greeted and walked towards them. I've known him long enough to always understand what he's talking about.

"Alright, Katie long time no see"

"Yeah, it's just been a little hectic" I laughed. "And I had a controlling boyfriend but its all good now. I'm the happiest and luckiest girl in the world" I replied wrapping my arms around Mitchell's waist to cuddle into him.

"Oh right, you're together now" he smiled. "Always wanted you to be"

"Me too" Mitchell added and kissed my forehead, making me beam with joy.

~~

"What about the man auction?" Joe asked when the fundraiser was almost over and we'd only raised £1,000.

"We're nineteen grand short, dipshit" Mitchell replied.

~~

"Going once, going twice, sold to Mrs Carmichael!" One of the heavy metal bandmates had been bought by Stephens mother for a day.

"Next up is Mr Fraiser" Rosie, who was managing the auction continued.

Fraiser then went on about how he has bunions on his feet, I jokingly gag making Mitchell chuckle.

He was sold to Gladice, the deaf school cook.

Next was Alfie, Rosie and Chantelle were fighting over buying him. Then some anonymous buyer offered £25,000 to have Alfie for a day.

"Going once, going twice, sold to the mystery bidder" Rosie said outing her hands over her mouth to ovoid showing her shock.

We all cheered, the school was saved, no one was going anywhere. Mitchell lifted me up by my waist and kissed me.

"We ain't goin' nowhere bitches" I laughed.

~~

"See you later babes!" Stephen waved to me. I waved back sadly.

"What's up babes?" Mitchell asked.

"yeah, you can't pull that off" I laughed.

"Thought not. "What's up?"

"Do you think your dad would mind if I stayed at yours for a little bit?" I asked.

"Of course, but why?"

"I'm kicked out for a bit because my brother is visiting with his wife and baby, so" I laughed.

"Yeah, come on." He put his arm around me and we walked towards his dad.

"Dad, can Katie stay with us for a few days?" He asked.

"Course, as long as you want." He replied

"how about forever" I joked and we all laughed and got in the car.

We stopped at my house so I could get some clothes for the next few days.

"Joey!" I yelled and ran towards my brother and wrapped my arms around him. "Oh, I've missed you!"

"Hey Katie" his wife came front he kitchen.

"Kelly! Hey, so where's the little one?" I asked. I hadn't met the baby yet.

😂

"She's over here" I followed her to the living room and saw a beautiful little girl, she was around 17-18 months at the most and was gorgeous.

She had her mother's hair, her fathers eyes and an adorable laugh.

"Hello, what's you're name?" I asked in a baby voice.

"It's Ella, after, well, Ella" Joey laughed sadly.

"I miss her too Jo" I replied.

Ella was our sister who died a few years back. I miss her everyday.

"Hello Ella. Your name comes from an amazing girl, just like you're going to turn out to be" I said as Kelly passed her to me.

"Awh, Mitchell would love you" I smiled.

"You're still friends with Mitchell? Wow nothings changed since I left" Joey asked.

"No, a lot changed since you left" I laughed. "He's my boyfriend now. So can we call him uncle Mitchell" I laughed. "He'd love that"

"Yes!" Kelly clapped her hands.

"Can I get him? To meet you two?" I asked, referring to Kelly and Ella, as he met Joey a while ago.

"Of course. You can have her straight back after" Kelly giggled and took Ella back. I walked to the car and asked Mitchell if he wanted to meet her, he agreed and Mr Harper said he'd go to the shop and come back in about an hour.

We went inside and Kelly gave Ella to me again.

"Ella, this is uncle Mitchell, you are going to love him" I said showing her face to Mitchell.

"Uncle?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm Auntie Katie, so you're Uncle Mitchell, or Uncle Mitch, that's even cuter!" I added, making everyone laugh.

"She's so pretty, Joey" Mitchell complimented.

"Got that from Kelly" he replied.

"Nice to meet you" she said and hugged Mitchell.

"Ugh, I want one" I groaned.

"Gimme a few years, yeah?" Mitchell joked, making us all laugh.

~~

"Can I ask you a big favour?" Joey asked me. "Anything" I replied.

"Can you look after her after school, on Thursday next week?" He asked.

"Oh, yeah, she can watch the school play" I laughed, knowing that Mitchell will be in it.

"I'll definitely take care of Ella then, anything you need." I smiled. Then there was a beep of a horn outside.

"That's my dad, we got to go" Mitchell said and got my bag for me as I gave Ella to Joey.

"Bye Ella, I'll see you soon" I kissed her head and we left.

"Was she cute?" Mr Harper asked.

"The cutest" I replied.

"Hey" Mitchell whined.

"Okay, second cutest" I rolled my eyes playfully.

Once we got back to Mitchell's house he and I watched a a few episodes of Friday Night Dinner, as I'd just discovered it and it's hilarious, and went to sleep. We fell asleep like this:

I really am the luckiest girl in the world...
