A small sigh could be heard throughout the room. A shorter boy was pushed against the wall as a thund could be heard in the room, the smaller boy didn't have the time to say anything before his lips were captured by a taller man standing in front of...

Everyone has a villian in their story, but what do you do when you are your own?
Ashton always had trouble getting up in the morning because he loved laying in bed and also he didn't want to go to school, but did anyone. He groaned before he sat up in bed and looked around his messy room that Willow always complained about. He stood up from his bed and walked over to his closet to pick out some clothes. He pulled out a blue sweatshirt and some black jeans to go with it. He walked over to his desk and put some of his school books in his bag before he grabbed his car keys and walked out of his room and down the stairs with quiet steps. He pulled on his black jacket and some Nike shoes before he walked outside to his car. He started his car and backed out of the drive away and began the journey to pick up his friends for school.
Just as he pulled up outside Willow's place, she came running out the door with an apple in her mouth and her mother was screaming at her from the door. Willow pulled open the door and threw herself in the car and slammed the door closed.
"GO GO GO!" Willow exclaimed, making Ashton drive off in a hurry.
"What the hell was that about?" Ashton asked after a moment of silence.
"My mom has been bugging me about joining a pageant." Willow said while making a disgusted face at the thought.
"What? You don't want to be Miss USA and walk around in a bikini?" Ashton said with a laugh.
Willow turned to look at him with a glare before she slapped his shoulder making him laugh harder. "Hell no! I will never walk around in a bikini on a stage."
Ashton just chuckled before he pulled up at Zackary's house where he was standing on his front lawn already waiting on them. Ashton didn't get to stop the car entirely before Zackary had gotten into the car.
"You are late" Zackary said as he sat down and put on his seatbelt. Ashton chuckled before he drove off to school.
Ashton parked at the school's parking lot when they had gotten to school before they took their things and got out of the car. They walked into school and walked over to Willow's locker that was the closest to their first lesson.
"Did you guys do the homework?" Willow asked while she opened her locker and put her things inside before she took out her English book.
"Homework?!" Ashton questioned with wide eyes. "When the hell did we get homework?"
"Last Tuesday," Zackary answered, looking up from his phone.
Ashton groaned just before the bell rang making them move into the classroom where their first lesson was. Willow took her seat in front of the guys next to a girl named Hannah.
"Good Morning everyone" Miss Andrews said as she looked out on the class,
"I bet 50 bucks that we are going to do a project again" Zackary stated.
"I'm not going to take that bet because we both know that we are doing a project," Willow remarked, making Ashton chuckle.
"Today we are starting a project" Miss Andrews said, making the entire class groan because she made awful groups and the projects were often really big.
"What kind of project is it?" A teenager from the back of the class asked.
"This is a team project so you are working two and two. The project is kind of about yourself and your partner. I will tell you more about the project later after you know the groups" Miss Andrews stated.
"I hope this time the groups are good" Willow muttered looking back at the guys who shook their heads with a small frown.
"The first group is Hanna and William, the second group is Willow and Zackary" Miss Andrews said before taking a seat on the edge of her desk and continued to say the groups.
Zackary and Willow looked at each other and high-fived while Ashton groaned because he knew that he was going to be in a group where he didn't know anyone.
"And the last group is Ashton and Connor. I'm going to give you guys a couple minutes to find your partner and sit together before I tell you what the project is" Miss Andrews stated before all the teenagers started walking around the classroom to find their partner.
Ashton sighed softly before walking to the back of the class where he knew that Connor was sitting. He put his books on the desk and took a seat beside him. A simple way to describe Connor is that he is a douchebag to most people that isn't cool.
"So what do you think the project is about?" Connor asked as he looked to the side at Ashton.
"Probably something about getting to know each other and having a presentation or something, we both know that Miss Andrews loves throwing random people together," Ashton said with a groan before Miss Andrews started talking again.
"Okay settle down everyone" Miss Andrews said loudly, making everyone stop talking with their partners. " The project is about your partner, it's a new week and I know that people your age mostly hangout with the people you know and that you're not getting to know new people if you have to. So this project is about getting to know each other, for example who their family is, how they live, what they want to do in the future, things like that."
"So this is a big project?" Hanna asked from the front of the class.
"Yes the project is going to be a couple of months of work and at the end of the project you guys are going to do a presentation about your partner." Miss Andrews answered. "So you and your partner have to make your own schedule and decide what you want to have in the presentation."
The groups started planning their schedule with each other. Connor pulled out his computer with a new document where they could write their schedule.
"Okay how do you want to do this? We can probably be at my place some days if you want but I have football practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 5" Connor said as he wrote the weekdays in the document.
"That works for me. I'm free most of the days so anything works for me" Ashton replied.
"Here take my phone number so we can talk more easily and we don't have to find each other in school." Connor said as he wrote down his phone number on a note and handed it to Ashton.
Ashton nodded before the bell rang meaning that they had a small break before next class. Miss Andrews said goodbye to the class and the teenagers hurried out of the classroom.
"How come you two are in a group when the project is about getting to know a new person?" Ashton remarked as he met up with Zackary and Willow outside the classroom.
The two of them laughed as they moved to their next class, they had taken their books with them before the first class so they could walk right away.
"Well it's kind of funny that you are partners with Connor," Willow said with a giggle, before she waved goodbye to them as she walked to her theater class.
"I still find it kinda funny that the most dramatic person is in theater class" Zackary remarked before they took a seat in the back of their next class that was math.
"Well, she is in her true habitat," Ashton said with a laugh.
Mr. Noor walked into the class and started writing on the board and explained the new chapter they had this week but that was all that Ashton heard before he fell asleep with his head down on the table in front of him.
