“Okay so what is my first day wear?” I ask mostly myself as Adrian follows me into the closet. Last night when the girls came over they helped me out by putting most of my clothes away and played with Adrian. I find a lime green plain shirt showing Adrian as he just smiles at me. I slip it on finding jeans a thin black sweater and putting on my shoes. I pick up Adrian taking him into the living room where my grandmother was sitting.
“Ale.” Adrian pouts clinging on to me.
“I have to go to school. Granny will take you to the park.” I tell him as his eyes light up at the park part. I put him on the couch next to my grandma giving them both kisses on the cheek. I head outside to see the girls were already waiting for me. It made me smile because this is what I love. I haven’t talked to these girls in a couple months, more of an on and off, we kinda kept in contact but I kind of fell off after getting more involved with Joe, but we just clicked last night and it was like we were never apart.(By the way, Joe and i have been together for two years but it was recent that i fell off with the girls because of the things i was getting into with Joe which I hope we get into sooner rather than later.)
“Hello beautiful girls.” I get into the back seat of the car smiling at the girls as they take off.
“Hey! Oh my god we are hanging out after school with the boys want to join?” Erin ask as I give her a look.
“I’m not sure. I don’t want to leave Adrian alone with grandma for too long.” I explain to them as Tina gives me a pointed look.
“Stop being a mother for 2 minutes. We just got together you have to hang with us please.” Paige shakes me as I roll my eyes.
“Plus this will give her time to connect with her grandson.” Tina adds as I sigh.
“Fine. Fine I’ll hang out for a little bit.” I tell them as the exclaim about what we should do. I watch out the window as they talk among themselves. I realize that I didn’t even need to talk. Just being around them was enough.
We reach the school as we pile out of the car walking to someone’s locker. Not even sure at the moment.
“Did you get your digital schedule?” Tina ask as I nod showing her my phone.
“Oh cool. You have first period with Jamil.” Paige smiles as they walk me to my first period.
“He’s one of the boys, I presume?” I ask as they all nod.
“They’re all so fine, and Jesus.” Paige moans as I smirk at her.
“Oh wow, you guys are star struck over a couple of guys.” I shake my head. "I wonder what else makes you soak."
“Not just a couple of guys, football players that are literally getting watched by colleges as well as f*****g ESPN who are ready to recruit them right now.” Paige exclaims softly as I roll my eyes at her. Where in that sentence changed what I was thinking.
“Okay fine.” I put my hands up in surrender letting Paige get her jerk on as I walk into class.
“Jamil, this is our friend Alex. Be nice.” Tina smiles at me as he nods and I sit next to him.
“So you’re the Alex that the girls always gush about.” He smirks as I shake my head.
“Wow, they talk about me?” I ask him gasping as he gives me a genuine smile.
“Yeah they’re cool people. Which means your cool too and we can be best buds.” He says as I give him a look. Oh hes the annoying type, great.
“Why aren’t you best buds with the girls then?” I ask as he gives me a ‘duh’ look.
“Every time they see me, they drool most of the time, especially Paige. You haven’t drooled once!” He announces making me laugh.
“Okay well that makes perfect sense.” I agree rolling my eyes at his outburst. "Maybe I can start magically drooling and we will see how far our friendship will go.”
We decided to talk all though class since obviously the teacher didn’t assign work nor was she even there. I was surprised that most of the class stayed and actually hung around till the bell rung. As Jamil and I got up out of our seat I was shook by his height. Now I see what the fuss was about. He’s huge. He was about 6’2 probably Almost a half foot taller and he was made of muscle.
“You look like you seen a ghost.” He laughs picking up his book bag.
“You’re just taller than I expected, that’s all.” I nervously laugh telling him my thoughts as he smirks and I follow him out the classroom.
“You’ll have to get used to it.” He smiles as I roll my eyes.
“Get used to what?” He stops suddenly making me bump into his back.
“Nothing just talking to Alex.” He says as I step around him to see 4 other boys his height as well.
“Please tell me your lying.” I groan as they all give me an amused look. “Jesus Christ you guys are huge, I think I threw up a little.”
"What?" One of the guys laugh at my last comment.
“And your tiny.” A guy coos going to pinch my cheek as I slap his hand away glaring.
“I’m not tiny I’m 5’7 for your information fucker.” I point at him as another guy laughs at my combat.
“I’m not tiny.” He mocks as I glare at him.Wow I'm getting clowned by a bunch of assholes
“Okay enough fighting this is Lucas but we call him Luke because he hates Lucas.” He points to the guy that was arguing with me as I smirk.
“Nice to know Lucas.” I say sweetly as his eyes turn deadly on me. I would be terrified if I didn’t have evil older siblings, but I now know his tickle spot.
“That’s Samuel, Ruben and Travis.” He points to the rest of the guys as the smile at me except one. The Samuel guy just watched me as I felt his eyes take in every inch of my body and I felt as if I was under investigation for just standing in his presence.
“It was really nice meeting you guys, but class calls and I have no clue where to go next.” I show them my phone as they all make a face except Ruben. “What?”
“You’re willingly taking Johnson’s art class?” Travis gasp as I nod smiling.
“Yeah hes the only advanced art teacher plus I heard he’s easy.” I shrug.
“Good luck.” Samuel says gruffly before walking away and probably to his next class.
“I have his class. I’ll take you.” Reuben smiles at me as he starts walking.
“Bye bestie see you after class.” Jamil picks me up into his arms making me laugh before putting me down.
“You are annoying.” I tell him trying to catch up with Ruben.
“You like art?” He ask as I nod smiling.
“Love it. I love drawing.” I tell him. “Do you like drawing?”
“I’m okay.”
“So if the class is hard like everyone says and you’re okay with drawing, why are you in it?” I ask him with a raised eyebrow. He glanced at me face before huffing smiling slightly.
“There’s this girl.”
“That’s all I need to know.” I smirk as he rolls his eyes at me.
“Listen, I’ve liked her since freshman year and I’ve taken this class every year since. I guess yeah I’m good at sports and I’m not scared to get tackled by the biggest guy on the field, but when it comes to my feelings I guess that’s one thing that I shield.” He explains as I pout.
“Awww that’s so cute.” I whine hugging him. I surprised myself by hugging him but he surprised me back with a hug.
“I’ve never told anyone that. So you better keep your mouth shut.” He gives me a squeeze before we get into the classroom finding a seat next to each other. he points to the girl across the room and I nod in approval. Boys are so cute when they like a girl.
