Johnny

"Hello?"

"Um, hi Blake."

A short pause "Hello Johnny, shouldn't you be in class?"

I twirled the end of my hair "Well...I should, but I can't."

Another pause "Why?"

"Cuz I was late for class."

Another, but longer pause "I can't miss work Johnny."

"I know, I know and I'm not really asking that, but..."

"But what?"

I thought for a second, what would be the easiest way to say 'I'll be home late tonight, so I can't watch the kids' without making him angry "Well..I"

"Johnny if you're going to waste my time, I'm hanging up."

" I'm sorry, but I'll be home late tonight so if can you-"

"No."

My ears flattened against my head "But-"

"No." he growled "I have to go to work and since I'm the only one who can work I think it's best that I don't do anything that might end up in me losing my job."

"Fine, if you don't want to watch the kids then at least.."I tried to think of solution." Leave them with... my *pichino and his mate or maybe," ok I really didn't want to go with him, but I really didn't have a choice "or maybe your mechi can watch them."

A short pause "Fine, but you have to go and pick them up later."

"Ok, I can do that."

The barbie doll from the booth tapped the glass "Thirty-two seconds left."

I waved a hand back at him in way to say 'I know just wait a second' "Well bye, I have to go."

"Whatever, bye." there was a bit of grumbling " What's for dinner tonight, by the way?"

"I don't know, What would you like?"

A brief pause "Don't care anything, bye." A click then dial tone.

I put the phone on the hook, I handed the phone card over to barbie doll "Thanks again."

The barbie doll muttered under his breathe " *Pnaher L'xibo." Stupid whore.

I stopped, but then decided against slamming the barbie dolls big fat plastic head against the wall. Instead I hissed "*H'qupnew yekyi." Plastic bimbo.

"If you don't leave I'll call the guardians to have you kicked out for a week" he hissed back.

I turned my head, stuck out my tongue, then left the barbie doll alone. I probably shouldn't have done that, since I already had enough trouble in school thanks to you already know what, but sometimes I had to let out my frustrations and fortunately for the barbie doll , he only got tiny bits of my fury. The real deal was much more worse.

I went back to my first class, ancient history. I let the door scan the late pass " Enter, Johnny Dominic Sinclair Chailz."

I enter the class, our teacher, *Doetan.Neromi, flicked his gaze on me for a short second then returned his focus back to the notes he was writing on the board. I could feel the other students looking at me, but I ignored it. I searched for a seat and I found one in the back of the room. I took my seat, opened my text book and pretended to pay attention to the lesson.

Derek

"And for the last topic brought to us today; Doetan.Miles, would like to take members of the garden club to the new botanical garden museum in district Zai" Cody looked at all the members of the guardian council " As we all know, district zai is a two day trip plus the two days to get back, would it be wise to allow this trip?"

Donovan leaned back in his chair "Sounds stupid, what could you possibly learn from plants?"

Lunace snickered " I don't really know, but I'm sure Doetan. Miles knows what he's doing," he looked to me, the emperor of the guardians, "Would you like me to ask him, your excellency?"

I shrugged my shoulders "Go ahead, I'm very interested in this trip." I looked to Cody "Aren't you?"

Cody kept his gaze to the pile of forms on his desk "Not really, vegetation make my allergies act up."

I laughed "Then how do you get to school in the morning, better yet how do you live at home, last time I checked your mae had a lot of plants all over the place."

The rest of the guardian council laughed, Cody's usually pale face turned a dark shade of red. He shot me a look of death "I've rid of those pesky plants, thank you, now can we return back to the business at hand?"

I smirked " Sure, sure."

We discussed the trip and a few other matters during the meeting until it ended. I collected my bag, then strolled over to Cody " our we going to Mailee's for lunch, or do you want me to order something from that little *Fueran restaurant you like?"

Cody shook his head "no can do, I have to collect the list of tardy students from Tentan right now, then I have to find out who can watch the students during detention, then I have to finish making the student handbooks for the first years, then I have to collect all my homework assignments, as well as getting the notes on lessons and lastly-"

Rolling my eyes I said "I get it you're busy."

"Yes, very busy so go flirt with someone else."

I pinched him on the ass, which made him squeak " I don't flirt, I chase."

He slapped me on the arm "That barely makes sense!"

Chuckling, I pat him on the cheek " You're adorable when you're angry and flustered."

Cory hissed, his face becoming an even brighter shade of red. He slugged his bag over his shoulder then left the room. My smile grew wider as I watched his round rear end jiggle with each step he took, his tail twitching in anger.

I chuckled, the little Felilian was adorable in his own way and I found him to be fun to mess with. I hoped to bed him one day soon, hell maybe by then I could grow some affections for him and keep that giant fanny around me til death do we part, he he.

Suddenly my communicator watch flashed "Incoming call from, Antonio Mcgrady, will you accept this call?"

"I accept."

"Very well."

A medium screen projected up from the watch, Antonio's serious face peered through "Your excellency, a teacher has reported a student for causing a huge distraction during class, shall I bring him up to your office?"

"Who's the trouble maker?"

"A student named, Johnny Chailz, your excellents."

Johnny Chailz... where have I heard that name before? "Has this student because many offences in the past, Antonia?"

"I wouldn't know, but perhaps the adviser knows, your excellents."

Oh well, I'll look into it later "Very well, please bring the student to my office."

Antonio gave a soldier's salute "Yes, your excellency!"

The call ended, I strode over to my office and plopped down in the chair behind my desk. I brought my communicator close to my lips "Send a message to Cody Mellark, com number, 345-667-0932-23456."

"Recording..."

"Cody, please send me a file of a student named Johnny Chailz, I want to know if he has made any trouble in the past, thank you, End recording."

"Send now?"

"Yes."

"Sending message to Cody Mellark."

I drew away my wrist, I continued to ponder, who in the world was this Johnny Chailz? Why did his name seem so familiar to me? "Well I guess I'll find out soon enough."

Footsteps echoed nearby, then someone knocked on the door.
