Part 1B
On the table in front of them the boys were joking around until the teacher had told them to get back on with their work. It was a lesson where they were supposed to be designing a model to make in the workshop.
'Have you got anything that you want to add to this lesson?' asked Mr Mitchell the workshop teacher.
'Not really,' replied Allen.
'What about you, Gary?' asked Mr Mitchell 'I can hear you laughing but not actually doing alot?'
'I was just talking about my plans,' replied Gary innocently.
'What are you planning on making?' asked Mr Mitchell.
'Not much,' replied Gary.
'He wants to make one of those things that beheads people!' added Allen.
'You mean a guillotine?' replied Mr Mitchell.
'I think so,' replied Gary.
'It was what was used to behead people during the French revolution but unfortunately I am not a history teach so I cannot tell you how to make one and it would be a bit inappropriate for this school won't you think?' said Mr. Mitchell.
'Yeah, maybe?' replied Gary.
'Perhaps you could make some dolls house furniture instead?' joked Mr Mitchell.
'No thanks!' exclaimed Gary as the rest of the class laughed.

Nick hated it however. Gary was the one getting all the attention being the class clown and making the class laugh. That was what Nick wanted to do, be the centre of attention again and it was almost as though Simon knew it as well.
'He should be beheaded,' scowled Nick quietly.
'You don't like him much do you?' asked Simon but Nick remained quiet.
'Why don't you tell him to fuck off?' suggested Simon.
'No point,' replied Nick.
'Why not?' said Simon 'he is not that hard. He was crying the other day when he got kept behind during break for talking!'
'Yeah I didn't cry when I got kept behind once either,' added Nick.
'Then tell him straight,' said Simon 'I have seen him boss you around before. What are you scared of?'
'Nothing,' replied Nick feeling annoyed that Simon was asking these annoying questions. This was one reason why he tried to avoid Simon at times. Simon was just a tag along who would annoy people but then again Nick felt that was how people saw him as well.
'You are not scared of the others are you?' asked Simon.
'Scared of who?' replied Nick.
'All of that lot,' said Simon looking over towards the table in front of them.
'Why would I be scared of them?' replied Nick.
'Are you friends with them?' asked Simon.
'They are alright,' replied Nick now feeling even annoyed at Simon's pointless questions.
'They are not really your friends though are they?' Simon quizzed knowing full well that he was really starting to get on Nick's nerves.
'They are alright though,' Nick said while trying to keep his cool.
'But they did not even let you sit with them. If they really where your friends then they would have let you stay,' added Simon 'there is still space at the table,'
By now they had both caught the attention of Mr Mitchell who had noticed that they were not focusing on their work.
'Is there a reason why you two are talking?' he asked looking over towards Nick and Simon's table.
'We were just discussing something,' replied Simon casually.
'Is it to do with work?' asked Mr Mitchell.
'Sort of,' replied Simon.
'Maybe I might have to move one of you?' suggested Mr Mitchell.
'Saying that, why are you two sitting at the back of the class?'
'No room anywhere else,' said Simon as Mr Mitchell looked around the room.
'There is plenty of room somewhere else. Shall I move you?'
