Homeroom had always been rowdy. Mondays had always brought it up a notch, so the first Monday of the year really tested any teacher's patience. There were some students trying to chatter over each other about the small details of their summer they hadn't put on their Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. while others were still in summer mode, messing around as if they weren't surrounded by a sea of wooden desks.
Sylvester and Lewis made into the classroom just on time to see Rafael messing around with a small kid, probably a freshman.
Like many of the basketball team member, Rafael was a tall and trim guy and held a mop of dark curls and an elfish grin most people had come to learn wasn't a good sign. The guy knew how to get the students roar …show more content…
It's stupid! I know it," retorted the boy, obviously agitated that several juniors were paying too much attention. Still unknowing of the full situation, Lewis furrowed his eyebrows in suspicion while Sylvester pulled out a sports magazine and began to read it, indifferent to these situations.

The boy gave up and walked away, but not before scowling at Rafael. Lewis only shook his head, feeling pity for the freshman.
The late bell rang. Hair mussed and shirt wrinkled, Ms. Carol rushed in holding a small stack of papers. Everyone settled down, knowing what those papers held.
