//------------------------------// // Detention // Story: The Shimmer In Her Eyes, And The Sunset On Her Body // by MyLittleGeneration //------------------------------// Well, how lucky of me. I get a detention with Principal Celestia. Goodie goodie. The day by the way was actually decent and nice. Spent some time with Gavin, who did an awesome job in basketball, spent some time with Arin, who was acting cool, and still trying to find a way to hook up with RD after another small conversation, and spent some time with Sunset, who was just smiling and being nice and all. Her and her friends told me about detention. They said it wasn't the best. Gee, who would've guessed? And they also told me that there would be work on whatever subject she chooses, which is usually your worst subject your at. I didn't have a weak subject or whatever, but I was kinda hanging low on History lately, but it wasn't bad at all. Actually, today had no sign of Bruin. I didn't see him at all during today. Guess he was absent, thank god. Would pretty much strike fear to me, and hey, who knows. Maybe we can another troublesome time again. Probably getting knocked out again. But, I moved on with the day, and with me and Sunset, we were just being friends and looking out for each other. Nothing special was said or made, so not really progressing, but still was great to be around Sunset more. Especially during Choir, where I sung the lyrics to 'We Are Young' and Sunset sung the lyrics of 'Blank Space'. But as soon as the bell rang to end school, I slowly move with my books and backpack to the office. A horde of students rushed to get to the buses, and it was like being through a stampede for goodness sake. I soon claw my way to the office, which looked nice, but then shady at some glances and moments. I sit in the middle chair, and wait for Principal Celestia to walk right in, so I can serve my detention, and get this thing over with. She then walks in the room after opening the polished door. "Mr. Rayne," she started. She sounded actually pretty tensed up by this, and I have a feeling this might come to be a worser punishment, like being expelled. But she continued, "I am yet not very happy with you having to cause a fight between you and Mr. Bruin, and thus that brought you here." She was just staring out the window, watching as the last bus leaves the lot. "Though, I know exactly why." Wait, huh? She knew why I fought Bruin? He's a jerk that cares much less for anyone, so yeah. "I know that yet Bruin has caused some trouble around here, a lot actually. Though I want to expel him from this high school, which would actually make things a lot easier, I can't." I then take a time to speak out. "Because his father or something will… sue the school or something? Lawsuit?" Celestia closed her eyes and sighed. "That's the reason, isn't it? I learned he was apart of a rich family of some sort." Celestia responded, "Yes. I actually tried once, but it didn't work well. His father is very powerful, as he is a very rich politician, and yet has such a lawsuit. He spoils his son, and yet helps him in every way. The kid's getting out of control. And I know he started with you a bit, am I correct?" she asked me. "Correct." I said. "You know, I was usually tired of some people pushing me around or whatever back then in my old school, and seeing this guy in this new school, I had enough of him. I told him something arrogant, and he just-" Celestia quickly stopped me. "Threw a punch at you, in which he caused the fight, in which knocked you out. I know this, Rayne." She then sat down in her principal chair. "Listen, I just have to tell you, you just have to keep away from such a guy like him. I'm actually trying to work a way of stopping him and his ways, but it's going to take a while. He's a cruel person, Rayne. I would never know someone would be cruel in any way, shape, or form. Just keep your way out of him, alright?" I nodded. "I just hope we can really end this once and for all. I mean, Sunset told me of this story that he beat up some homeless man or something, and I'm just worried for not just me, but for everyone else." Celestia then smiled at me. "Like Sunset Shimmer?" I started to blush a bit. In front of the principal. How does she know? "How do you- I mean, yeah, I'm worried for her, and worried for all else who have to endure his bullying." I told her, and I could tell I screwed up. Still, how does she know? "I'm just saying, when I came by to see what in the hey was going on, Sunset was just checking you like crazy, like she really cared for you. But don't worry." Celestia chuckled. "It's nothing to really worry about, I mean, it's cute to see stuff like this." She then takes out a worksheet from her desk, and gives it to me. "I'm sorry for this, but you still have to do some work here, at least to pass the time, and by the way, you don't have to exactly finish it, but I want you to be close on this history paper." Oh, it was history? Nice, no problem. I finish the paper with only five minutes left, and I pass the time by singing in my head some songs that I love. At least some bits of it. Country, rap, rock, indie rock, pop, metal, oh the sorts. Except death metal with those really deep and horrible demonic singers, god I hate those. But hey, it made me actually think of what music Sunset likes. Does she like the music I listen to? At least like country or rap or whatnots? But hey, it was time to go. I give Celestia my thanks for understanding the situation and whatever, and tell her goodbye. I hop in my parent's car, and settle on home.
