《Mr Grumpy - DISCONTINUED AND BEING RE-WRITTEN》Chapter 4- Mr Pierce Gave Us A Quickie
Advertisement
I was on the second floor. Everything looked to perfect. From the glossy marble stone floors that I was afraid it would break, to the crystal chandeliers that hung on the ceilings. I had walked past several of rooms. It almost seemed as if this was a posh hotel.
When I got to the end of the hallway it split in two direction. Shrugging I went left. I don't know why. I held my breathe hoping no one would catch me snooping around at my first party. How embarrassing.
I stared at each golden framed door that passed me until I noticed a plain black door. I was confused as to why it was different to all the other golden framed door. I twisted the knob and grinned when it was unlocked. I quickly scurried into the room and gasped. It was probably Jasper's room.
The walls were a glossy white colour. Plain. Everything looked fake, the frame of the bed was black and had black and white bedding. There was a black fluffy rug in the front of the bed. Ooh that looks fun. There was a flat screen T.V glued onto the wall. Everything looked too.... rugged, lonely, empty.
I walked closer to a table and saw no photos on it. Strange. Oh my god I don't have my camera. There were rare moments when I didn't have my camera and that was now. I fiddled with a pair of keys on the tables. There were about 3 keys on the desk. Woah Jasper must be rich.
"What the hell do you think you're doing in my room." A voice snapped me out of my day dreams, I squealed loudly. I dropped the keys in the table and turned around. I gasped loudly when I saw that it was Mr Grumpy. I thought this was Jasper's room. Guess not.
"U-Um Hi? I was just looking for the," I paused trying to think of something. "Bathroom?" I said well more like asked, he glared at me before dragging me to his balcony; which I did not know about. I looked at the view and gulped. Woah. We were pretty high. Maybe I forgot to mention this, but Jasper lived on Dove Hills. Meaning they got a great look at the Town of Wayfield.
I stared at the towns lights. I mean we weren't a big town we just had around 1300 people. Was he gonna throw me off the balcony?
"The bathrooms were on the first floor, plus it had a massive signs that said Bathroom." He said stiffly still having a hold of my arm. I stare at his face. Do I look like a creep? Yes.
He had tattoos behind his ear covering the back of his neck. Again I almost drooled when I noticed his thin silver nose ring. He glared at me again.
"Um, so how long have you had your nose ring?" He looked a bit taken back at my random question. To be honest I was just curious.
"A year and a half." He answered rudely. I grinned, now we were getting somewhere. He let go of my arm and I let it dangle at my sides.
"So did it hurt?" I stared at him watching his brown hair shake when he moved his head to look at me.
"Look kid, I don't like being in the presence of people. I don't like seeing people and I definitely do not like talking to people." He said harshly before taking a cigarette out of his pocket. He then lit it up and placed it by his mouth. "Understand." He blew a harsh puff at me and I coughed loudly bringing my hands to my nose and mouth.

"No, Mr Grumpy I do not understand. You said people. I am not people. I am Anastasia also known as your new best friend." I grinned at him before skipping out of his room.

"I can't believe we made it on time Bethany and nothing happened at the party like in my book." I smiled as I snuggled Into my pillow. Bethany laid next to me with Alex purring at my feet. The blue lava lamp that Bethany bought me glowed in the darkness.
"See I told you. Always trust me little grass harper." She tapped my nose laughing lightly. "So did you see any hotties?"
Trust Bethany to turn everything into boys. "Eww no. Guess what? I realised that I didn't bring my camera with my tonight." I frowned in the dark and she giggled.
"Oh Ana, you poor thing." She swats my face lightly making me giggle.
"Well if you don't want to talk about a hot guy then I will." Immediately she jumped up startling me she switched the lights on and frustration was written on her face.
"Why do you look frustrated though?" I asked confused and sat up picking Alex up when he hissed at Bethany. She rolled her eyes and hissed back.
"Because of Jasper. Ugh. He is such an arrogant asshole. Sorry I just had to state the truth." She untied her hair before starting a French braid. " God. He is sooo annoying. I mean sure he is hot but seriously how can he be that cocky? I mean sure i'd tap him, but god he is making me question it." She grumbled out.
"Um, so why are you annoyed at him?" I said puzzled and gave her a hair pin from my head.
She took it before saying. "He asked if I wanted to have a quickie in the bathroom."
"I mean don't get me wrong I would have taken him up for that offer. But." She dragged out the word in distaste. "He was so full of himself with that cocky grin."
I nodded completely confused on what to say. "So, maybe he didn't want to answer your quiz questions." I waved my arms finally satisfied with my answer.
"What are you talking about?" Now she looked confused.
"You know a quick quiz. A quickie. That's what is it right." I raised my brow at her and she laughed loudly making Alex hiss at her again.
She finally sobered up once she heard the constant snarls from Alex who glared at her. Oh the cat definitely disliked her. "Yeah sure Ana, a quick quiz. Geez you are way too innocent."
No I wasn't. Right?

"Okay so I want everyone to do a monologue on any of the character in Pulp Fiction. I expect it due next week Monday. I am being generous." Mr Pierce stared at us threw his tiny spectacles. The old man was lanky and skinny. He looked as if he would fall if he took one more step. His grey hair sat on his head neatly combed to the side and he pointed his dainty finger at us.
He was the typical up tight strict teacher. He loved tormenting us, wasn't he suppose to like kids if he wanted to be a teacher? I guess I'll never know.
RING
RING
The sound of the bell satisfied my stomach. Why? Because I was famished.
I packed my bag very quickly and rushed to the cafeteria. Our cafeteria wasn't as cliché as other schools. Everyone hangs with who ever except for the Barbies. Other than them everyone gets along actually.

I searched for my friends for a bit before seeing them. Quickly I moved my feet towards them. Sitting at the table was Bethany, Reece and my other friend Cameron. I grinned at them before plopping my marshmallow down on the seat.
"Hi guys." I waved my hands at them before taking out a chicken sandwich out of my bag. I wasn't a fan of the Cafeteria food.
They all greeted me with different names. I took a bite of my sandwich and moaned at my moms sandwich.
"Give me a bite Anne." Cameron made grubby hands like a baby. Cameron was caramel skin due to his mom's African side and his dad's Russian side. He had dark brown shoulder length hair that was always kept in a bun. He had emerald green eyes that always held amusement in them. To be honest he was pretty attractive.
Cameron was the clown in our group. Bethany was kind of the rebel or daredevil. Reece was the peace maker. And I was the random one? I think.
I gave him my sandwich not wanting to be rude, even though I really wanted to eat it without sharing. When he went for a second bite I snatched it out of his hands before feeling a bit embarrassed of my actions. "Sorry Cam." I muttered out before eating the sandwich.
"You know you it's not bad to say no Ana." Bethany rolling her eyes at my apology and I shrugged. "Your too good for your own."
And then Bethany began to tell the group about how arrogant she thought Jasper was. I giggled when I saw how frustrating her face was. Cameron made stupid remarks here and there but Reece was unusually quiet. I think he found out that I saw that fight. But it was sooo cool.
After Bethany's drama story, I spoke. "Reece are you still mad at me for seeing the fight?" My voice came out tiny almost afraid of what he would say.
"Yes, I didn't want your innocent eyes to see that." He grumbled out before crossing his arms on the table.
"What?!" Bethany suddenly hissed out at Reece. "I told you to make sure she didn't see any of the fights Reece." The cat has been unleashed. She roared out making Cam laugh at this situation. I wrapped my half eaten chicken sandwich up afraid that it would be involved.
"Well where were you Miss Drunky pants?" Okay I laugh at that, what an odd nickname.
"Touché." She flicked a piece of her apple at him. She is wasting food. He glared at her and she showed him her middle finger.
"But yeah, her innocent mind was exposed." Reece frowned at me, like I did something wrong.
"Oh my marshmallows. Why does everyone keep saying that I am innocent." I pouted annoyed at that common phase. Geesh people need to calm down.
"Because you are. Okay what is a quickie?" Bethany smirked at me and I furrowed my brows together. Why would she ask If she knows that I know it?
"It is a quick quiz." Immediately they laughed and I listened to Cam's shrieks of his laugh. "What?! Mr Pierce gave us a quickie today in English."
"Oh my god this is golden." Cam wiped the tears pooling around his eyes and cocked his head to the side.
"What is soo funny?" I asked confused.
"Nothing Annie. Just don't go saying that to people. Okay?" Reece said sternly and I nodded uncertain. Bethany nodded as well as if to say go with it.
"Oh my god, there he is." Bethany banged her head on the table all of a sudden.
"Who?" Cameron says before drinking some of Reece's Fanta. Reece glared at Cameron who just smiled back.
"The Asshole." Bethany's words were muffled by the table.
"Don't swear B." I scowled at her before searching the room for Jasper. And there he was standing with Mr Grumpy. Were they close? Well he did live with Jasper. Where were his parents?
Mr Grumpy stood there glaring at all of Jasper's friends. Jasper was pretty popular and beyond attractive. With honey brown hair that stood in hot mess with blue eyes that often changed. He also had light freckles around his nose and cheeks not that I notice; Bethany told me. I swear. All in all Jasper Hendricks was hot with a capital H. I gazed at my friends and noticed that Beth was still banging her head.
"Jesus Christ Beth stop doing that I'm drinking my Fanta."
"Cameron! That is mine!" Reece smacked his forehead before taking his drink. Trust Cam to take everyone's food.
Giggling I moved my gaze back at Jasper and Mr Grumpy. I then noticed that Mr Grumpy had left. Jumping up I told them I was leaving.
"Why?" Beth asked suspiciously, she finally stopped with the head banging.
"U-Um b-because I need to go to the bathroom." I raised my brow trying to make my lie seem realistic. Even though I knew they weren't buying it especially since I stuttered.
"Hmm you don't sound so sure about that." She moved her head forward. "Unless." She dragged the word out as she glanced at the doors. "You are befriending Adrian Miles." Why did she have to say his full name?
"Am not." I lied out shaking my head.
"You better not Ana. You know you have an obsession with being friends with everyone" Reece points out and Cam nods along taking a sip of Reece's Fanta. Reece gave up on telling him to stop drinking it. Well he does have a point, I guess.
"I am not. I just need to go pee pee." I waved my arms around me and I raced across the rooms.
I found Mr Grumpy leaning against schools brick walls smoking. He was on the left east wing of the school. Not a lot of people came on this side, saying this was all the bad ones hung out.
Ignoring all the stares from the people that hung around here I marched right towards Mr Grumpy. As I stood in front of him, he didn't acknowledge me so I did the most stupid thing. I slapped his cancer stick out of his hand.
Quickly not wanting to let the moment disappear, I snapped a shot of his brooding face. I dropped my smile when I saw his face. He looked as if he could kill me and my non-existent bunny Carlos.
He was glaring at me. It felt as if his glare was piercing through my soul. But nevertheless I grinned again not wanting his mood to affect me.
"What the hell do you think you are doing Kid?!" He whispered harshly and I winced for a second before thinking of a unicorn.
"Sorry that was really rude of me, but I don't really like those cancer sticks. You know you can die from them. In fact my mom's aunt's friend's niece's daughter's boyfriend's mom died because of that. Did you know that? Well I actually only found out yesterday. It was a shame cause my mom's aunt's friend's niece's daughter's boyfriend's mom was actually a really nice lady, she onc-" My words were muffled by the touch of Mr Grumpy's calloused palms.
"Do you ever shut up?"
I was about to answer but he simply said, "Okay don't answer that please. I have a bloody headache now thanks." He groaned massaging his temples.
Immediately I felt bad for causing him a headache. Then I grinned when I remembered that I had painkillers.
"Wait, I have some painkillers."
"No! I don't want anything from you." He snarled out making me wince lightly.
"I know what you are trying to do Mr Grumpy." I plastered a full on smile on my face. "You are trying to make me not become you friend. Well guess what Mr Gumpy." I raised my brows questioning him.
"Go on say what." I pouted at him. He squinted at me in disbelief.
"No, I am not gonna say that. Go away Kid."
"No Mr Grumpy. Say what." I frowned and pouted again and he looked more agitated than before.
"Fine. What? Happy Now?" He glared before lighting up another cigarette much to my dismay.
"I am gonna be your friend, no matter what." I grinned before taking another photo.
"Would you please put that stupid camera away before I smash it." I was about to laugh but then I noticed how serious he was. Noticing how my baby was gonna be involved in this conversation I shoved it in my bag.
"Okay fine."
"Good, now go away." He demanded but I shook my head grinning at him.
"Want my half eaten sandwich? I swear I don't have a disease."
