Valentina's POV

I sat in my chair chewing on a pencil. My hood was up and it covered the blasting music pouring from my earphones. I quietly hummed along to ColdPlay. I had made a mix of Bon Jovi music and ColdPlay music. So sue me. I like drama. I turned to look at the whiteboard and all the difficult calculations.

Since when does English include Math? I thought bitterly. Oh yeah my teachers are bitches and decided to include more of each subject in different subjects...yippe. I looked over to Saph who seemed to be lost in thought. I crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it to her.

She flinched as it made contact with her head. She looked at me and smirked. I am so bored! I spelt out in sign language. She cracked a smile and replied, Aren't you going to study English Lit in College? I nodded and replied with, This might as well be math. I pouted as i said this.

She laughed out loud and got multiple stares from the class. The teacher looked over at us, her glasses glinting in the sun. She just rolled her eyes and proceeded to spout nonsense. This is why we have different teachers for each subject. Some teachers don't know jack. I thought.

I felt a piece of paper land next to me on the floor. I raised my eyebrows and looked up. Luke was smirking and mouthing ,Pay attention! I rolled my eyes and continued to ignore the walrus being murdered in front of me. I giggled at me thoughts and doodled in my book.

"Put away your books we are doing Literature now!" Announced Mrs.Walrus. The class erupted in cheers and we began to hungrily read the entrancing novels. This is what I like, i thought.

The school day finally ended with multiple complaints from Ashton and Calum and Michael who already served their time. "Oh Juliet why must you put us through such agony? WHYYYY???" Michael cried dramatically. With his green hair and baggy jeans he looked ridiculous.

"Because sweet Romeo isn't it obvious i hate and resent you for being free and im not?" Calum responded in a girly voice. We erupted in laughter and walked over to Starbucks. "Um yes ill have a fwapachino!" Ashton said in a white girl voice. I face palmed. "Ok one frapachino," said the cashier.

Ashton shook his head. "No a FWAPACHINO!" The boy at the cashier narrowed his eyes. "A frapachino. I know." Ashton shook his head exasperated. "FWAP FWAP I SAY!" We howled in laughter and apologized to the boy for our delusional friend. We got our frapachinos oh sorry FWAPachinos and sat down.

I twirled my straw round and round as i watched the conversation taking place in front of me. "What im saying is what if we played the lottery?! Hello we know what numbers win!" Michael said. Saph shook her head. "Idiot. You could rip apart space and time!" H scoffed. "How do you know?"

Saph slapped a hand over her face. I was about to reply when I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. I looked up and saw....No way! I mouthed. "Hey sweet cheeks," he grinned. I launched myself into his arms and took a deep breath. His cologne invaded my senses, leaving me numb with joy.

"Brooks!" She squealed. He chuckled and brought us close to his chest. His caramel hair brushed against my cheek and i was so close i could see the darker bits of green in his eyes. He was so amazing. Saph and i used to have a crush on him before we became just friends.

"Baby..." He murmured to me. I grinned at his nickname for me. He patted my head and i sat. Luke glared at me and then at Brooks. Geez what crawled up his ass? I thought. "It's been wayyyy to long Brooksie!" I cooed. He laughed and kissed me on the forehead.

"I have a surprise for you two!" He chuckled. My eyes lit up. Brooks's surprises were always unexpected and amazing. Saph swung her body across his lap. "Tell us!" She giggled. He shook his head. "Awwww Bwooksie pwease?" She whined. He shook his head. "I got this," I whispered to her.

I pouted and bit my bottom lip. I fluttered my lashes and made my eyes huge. I knew he could never say no to this face. He groaned and shook his head. "Fine," he sighed. I beamed and kissed him on the cheek. He flushed a deep red and brushed a lock of my dark hair back. "Your mom is coming to visit."

I gaped. Saph was smiling so hard her face looked like it was about to break. Then Brooks got up and left. "Who was that?" Luke asked gruffly. "Brooks," I sighed. He just nodded and continued to sulk. "Looks like you have a crush on him," Ashton noticed. "I do not!" I scoffed.

"You're blushing!" Calum laughed. I pouted and crossed my arms, stubborn as always. "I like someone else!" I shouted. Saph just looked at her nails but the others gaped at me. Luke's head shot up and was glaring at me. "Who?" He snapped. His eyes seemed to shine with betrayal.

"It's Jack...duh," Michael said. My head swung around to see him. "How did you-" He scoffed, cutting me off. "It was obvious." I flushed a deep red. "Shut up!" I cried. They laughed and continued their conversations. Luke was still looking at me as i squirmed uncomfortably under his intense gaze.

It was time to leave and we all piled into ma car. We were all laughing now, Luke had gotten over his strange attitude. We walked to the front of my door just as another box fell from the sky. "Seriously?!" I shouted. The door creaked open and out stumbled a beautiful girl.

Soft golden locks tumbled down her face and her blue eyes were like orbs. "OMG GUYS!" She cried...literally. She launched herself at Luke and i looked away. I bit my lip as my heart let out a pang. "Nat!" I heard Luke's shocked voice. "NAT!" Ashton cried. I turned back around to see Ash launching himself at her.

They embraced but Nat had her eyes on Luke the whole time. Luke turned to look at me. I looked away and heard footsteps coming towards me. Huh? I looked up and saw Luke had taken my shaking fingers in his hand. His brows were furrowed in confusion as his fingers gently squeezed mine.

He held on to them until the shaking stopped. I saw Nat glaring at me and shooting a hurt look at Luke. Luke walked away without saying a word as i looked on in confusion. Oh Luke...why did you do that? Im so confused. I sighed and decided to get to business. I walked over to my door and walked in.

I picked up the phone and called Amelia. "Yeah..uh Amy? We got another one. A girl this time."

SORRY FOR THE SHORT UPDATE. THIS WAS JUST A FILLER.
