Chapter 10: School
The next morning finally came at the Parr’s residence. Helen woke up Dash. He bolted out of bed and took a quick shower, got changed, and rushed downstairs for breakfast. He was surprised to see his sister, wide awake, eating a bowl of cereal.
“Good morning Dash!” Violet greeted cheerfully.
Dash stared at her oddly. “Uh. . . hi Vi.”
Violet giggled. She got up and placed her bowl by the kitchen sink. Just then, Helen enters the kitchen.
“Good morning Violet. You are up early today.”
Violet beamed at her mother and walked away. Moments later, she, Dash, Jack-Jack, and Helen all got into the car and drove off. First, Helen dropped off Dash at his elementary school. Later, she drove to Violet’s school.
“Hey sweetie,” said Helen.
“Mom, don’t worry.” replied Vi as if she knew what her mother was going to ask. “I am fine. I just want everything to be back the normal way it was.”
Helen smiled and finally, they arrived at Western View Junior High. Violet got out of the car and retrieved her backpack from the trunk. She waved to her mom good-bye. Before she turned around, Jack-Jack shook his tiny little arm.
“Bye-Bye.” he cooed.
Violet smiled and blew a kiss to his baby brother. Finally, she turned and walked through the doors of her school. Violet strolled to her locker and placed all of her textbooks, notebooks and other supplies in it. Five minutes later, the bell rang, signaling her first period class. Violet closed her locker and walked off to her PE class.
//////////\
During PE, everyone was forced to play dodge ball. This was Violet’s least favorite sport. The teams were divided and it was Violet and practically everyone else versus the popular bunch of people. Minutes later, balls were thrown, and the game started. Violet was not the fastest player, nor did she have the strongest throwing arm. She had many advantages over everyone else. Such include great agility, endurance and defensive skills, all of which she uses when she fights against crime. The game took as long as thirty minutes. Soon, it came down to Violet on one side and Britney and her gang on the other. The girls weren’t really tired because all they did was wait and did nothing. Violet, on the other hand, was very exhausted. She was panting rather heavily. Fortunately she had all of the balls on her side of the court. She took them all one by one and threw them hard at the other team. The balls hit the girls one by one. It was over. Violet was declared the victor.
//////////\
A couple of minutes later, the bell rang. She had science next. After taking down more notes, she did a chemistry lab. Science was not her favorite subject but Violet did indeed have a solid “A”, which she was happy for. Her parents, have stressed the importance of her schooling over fighting crime. If she had any "C"s or lower, she would not only be grounded from patroling and saving the world, but in addition, she couldn’t hang out with her friends or Tony.
//////////\
During the passing period, Violet went to her locker to retrieve her English textbook and notebook. She had just closed her locker when she saw Tony Rydinger. Violet ran over to Tony leapt into him and wrapped her arms around her boyfriend. Violet had a feeling of safeness in her.
“Uh. . . hi Violet.” Tony said, trying to ignore the people staring at him.
Violet continued to snuggle with Tony like a teddy bear. Five minutes later, the bell rang. Violet quickly planted a kiss on Tony’s cheek and happily walked over to her English class.
“Hmmm, awkard.” said Tony as he walked to his next class.
//////////\
Violet couldn’t have enjoyed English class more. Today, she studied poetry, ans she got a chance to write her own. She wrote a poem about her and her boyfriend Tony in a beautiful meadow with flowers blooming all around, a rainbow shining in the sky, and cute animals scurrying everywhere.
“Okay class, who would like to share their poems?” asked Violet’s teacher. “Uh. . . Violet, how about you.”
Violet snapped out of her daydream and looked at her teacher. She then looked down at her poem with out saying a word. Vi slowly got out of her seat and walked uncomfortably to the front of the room. She stared at her class as sweat dripped down her head. She grew redder and redder every passing second. She was about to start when. . .
“RRRRRIIIIINNNNNGGGGG”
“Oh never mind Violet.” the teacher sighed.
“That was close.” Violet thought as she went to her math class.
//////////\
During her class, she did some homework and then, got a test back. She was ecstatic to know she had received an A+ on her test. Violet beamed with joy and continued to work on classwork.
//////////\
The bell rang, and Violet went to get her backpack and went to lunch. It didn’t take long before she found Tony sitting alone under the shade. Violet went up to him and sat by him.
“Hey Tony!”
“Uh, hi Violet. You are overly happy today.”
Violet just flashed a cute smile. “Yeah, I know.”
Violet took out a sandwich and took a big bite. Tony just sat and stared at Violet. He could not help gazing at her blue eyes, her shining dark hair, her cute face, and her elegant smile. Violet finished her sandwich and looked at Tony.
“Tony, it is impolite to stare.” she said.
Tony snapped out of his trance. “Sorry Vi. I can’t help it that you are so beautiful.”
Violet began to blush. They spent the rest of lunch talking and laughing with each other. Soon, the bell rang, signaling the end of lunch. Violet waved to Tony and went to her next class.
Finally, Violet went to her History class. She learned about the Civil War and Abraham Lincoln. She took down notes and later had a test.
//////////\
Soon, the bell rang. Violet waited under a tree for her mom. She smiled, brushed some hair out of her face and behind her ear, and waited. Suddenly heard Tony walking down the hallway. She hid behind the tree and made her head invisible to listen in on Tony’s conversation with his friends.
“Oh come on Rydinger. Go on.” Violet heard.
“Stop it guys. You are embarrassing me. Violet could be eavesdropping or something.” Tony panicked.
“Come one Rydinger. Go on and ask her.” nudged one friend. “It has been almost two weeks since you two last went out.”
Violet gasped in excitement. Her heart was beating so fast, she didn’t know what was happening.
“Well. . .” Tony said with a little discomfort.
Violet’s head became visible again and she excitedly hopped out of the shade.
“Hi Tony.” she squeaked. She too was a little shy about talking to him, especially in front of other people.
“Well, gotta go Rydinger.”
The two boys left, leaving the two teenagers alone by the school steps. Both faces were red and blushing. Violet looked down at her flip flops as Tony eyed the sky whistling, hands in his pockets.
“Uh, hi Violet.” Tony managed to say.
“You, uh. . . wanted to ask me something Tony?” stuttered Violet a bit.
“Well. . . I was. . . it’s nothing.” Tony stammered quickly.
Violet’s smile faded away. She looked down at the ground. “Oh. . . I see, that’s okay.”
At that moment, she heard the honking of a car horn. It was Helen, with Dash and Jack-Jack in the back.
“Well, I guess I’ll see you tomorrow.” muttered Violet.
She turned and headed toward her mother’s car. Tony looked at her, quickly regained his composure and called her out again.
“Violet?”
Violet had just grabbed the handle of her car. She turned to look at Tony. Tony knew this wasn’t going to be easy because Violet’s mom and brother (not counting Jack-Jack be cause he is a baby) were watching.
“I was just. . . wondering. . . if you. . . would you. . .” he faltered with his words.
“Yeah?” Vi asked with a little exhilaration.
“Would you like to go out on a date with me sometime over the weekend?” Tony finally spoke.
Violet’s eyes and mouth widened. “Of course Tony!”
She leapt into his arms and squeezed him tight.
“Uh Vi, we are still at school. And Dash is giving me this funny look.” reminded Tony.
Violet release him with a sense of uneasiness. She got into her mother’s car.
“Could you meet me at my house at 11:00 this Saturday okay?” she told Tony.
Tony said nothing but gave a smile and a wink. Helen drove off. This day could not have been more perfect for Violet. She got her revenge against the girl that hated her the most, she has a very good day at school, and Tony asked her out after two weeks. Violet sighed in romance. Everything was perfect. . . well, until Dash and Jack-Jack started to tease her.
