I Will Always Love You

~Roncalli Catholic & Common Friends~

~Jewel's POV~

"Jewel get your ass up, you have school."

I groaned at the sound of my dad's voice getting out of bed and getting dressed. I pulled on my ugly gray skirt, with my white button up shirt, and my usual black pumps. I did my make-up, putting on a light layer of black eye liner, some mascara with a light almost nude shine lip gloss. I brushed out my long red hair and looked in the mirror, grabbing my bag as I walked out of the house, ignoring my dad. I walked to my car, hopping in and starting the engine heading to school. When I got there I pulled into the senior parking getting out of the car and walked into the school. I walked to my locker and put my things away, grabbing my purse. I walked down the hall to my classroom taking my seat at the back of my room, I waited for class to start only to have someone sit next to me. I looked at him, he actually wasn't bad looking, he had black hair that was spiked in a messy way, he was wearing a button up blue shirt, that wasn't uniform, with a pair of dark wash jeans, he looked at me.

"Like what you see?"

I rolled my eyes before looking up at the front and ignoring the conceded ass next to me. When the bell rang I got out of my seat only to be chased down by the ass who sat next to me, I kept walking until he spoke.

"I'm sorry, I was an ass in there, but if I'm being honest you were staring."

"I wasn't staring, I was confused, no one ever sits by me, and all of a sudden some random prick that I don't know sits next to me. What do you expect."

I walked away heading to my second class and taking my seat, I sat there until the bell rang and once again I sat alone. The teacher walked in and started handing out books, when he was done he stood at the front of the class. Starting the lesion only to be interrupted moments later by the door opening, I looked at it to see the guy from the first period. He sat next to me and I opened my book starting to read, the teacher looked at him.

"Young man, this is a catholic school, where is your uniform, and why are you late to my class."

Everyone looked at him.

"Okay for one chill, I get that this is a catholic school, I just haven't gotten my uniform yet. Two I'm late because it's the first day of school and I got lost, is that a problem because as far as I'm concerned you're the teacher, you're supposed to understand that shit."

I looked at him with wide eyes before the teacher spoke.

"Get out of my class room."

He went to get up and I grabbed his arm stopping him, I looked at the teacher.

"Why does he have to get out, all he did was tell the truth, and if you have a problem with honesty then you better kick me out too, because I'm gonna be honest with you and say that this is bullshit. It's his first day, he's new to the school so duh he's not gonna have a uniform, and of course he's not gonna know where to go. He's right, your a teacher, you're supposed to understand this shit."

"Alright Ms. James, if that's how you feel then you can go with him, I'll call the principal and let him know that the two of you will be down to see him."

"Fine."

I grabbed my bag putting my books in it before heading out of the room with the new guy following behind me. He followed me to the office, we both walked into the principal's office taking a seat in front of him, he looked at me and then the guy sitting next to me.

"Is this really how we want to start off the year Ms. James?"

"Yep, he was being an ass."

"And you were being a dumb teenager."
