Derek skated up to the front door, noticing out of the corner of his eye the limo pulled up in the driveway. He picked up his skateboard and walked in, to find a group of freshmen standing around gaping.
"Dude, it's that kid from the newspaper!" Derek gave him a disgusted look. "You're the guy who survived like, five bullets, right?"
"Fifteen, but get the f*ck out of my way," he answered, shoving his way through the group. There was a collective gasp from the entire pack. The one who had asked Derek about getting shot stared in amazement.
Derek was heading to class, being followed by a pack of students he had never seen before and didn't care to meet now. After being followed around a while, he stood on a table that was in the middle of a hall for some reason. "Okay kids, I don't know what the hell you think is so cool about me, but whatever it is, you can stick it up your asses. Mmm'kay? Any questions?" There was a long pause.
"Did you actually survive fifteen bullets AND getting stabbed? My friend told me they had to replace your liver or something!"
Derek rolled his eyes. "Do me a favor and tell your friend to go to hell for me, will you? Look, morons, I'm not a f*cking hero, and I don't know where you got that from. I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, alright? Happens to me all the time. No need to make a big deal out of it now. If you'll excuse me, I'll be going to class now." Derek hopped down from the table and kicked it towards the crowd as he did.
((woo! I'm back from Rosarito! Finally! Man was it fun! I had no idea i could drink so many tequila sunrises! so we finally moved along...ok.....))
Katherine and Seth were getting a lot of stares, they probably knew they were the kids who were with the 'hero'. Katherine tried her best to ignore it, "So Seth Haylie is coming to get you-"
"Tommorow" Seth said bleakly, "Tommorow I'll go back to California, Haylie told me that my mom hasnt slept and that my dad is furious for leaving the way I did"
Katherine looked down, "They care for you Seth, its a good thing my parents thought I was vacationing, even though they were upset I never called"
Seth smiled grimly, "Well I have to go get my transcripts sweet stuff, So i'll catch you later kay"
Katherine nodded and spun to see Derek knock over the table, gasps were heard everywhere. Katherine ran to Derek, "What happened, are you alright?"

Derek stared for a moment. "Uh... Rich kid, about your height? Yeah, I think I tore the door off his locker with some friends one time... Or was he the one whose car I repainted? Oh well, sure, I know who you're talking about."
Katherine shook her head, "They have nothing better to do" Once the people started clearing Katherine said in a slightly lower tone, "Everyone has been talking about you Der, its like your a celebrity or something, weird thing is that this girl had a picture of you in her locker, and had honor written across your face, people in this high school are freaks"
