"You okay princess?" Fox asks, sitting next to me on the floor by my locker, wrapping an arm around my waist, pulling me into a soft hug.
A sigh escapes my mouth, laying my head on his shoulder softly, contemplating to answer him, zoning out thinking, overthinking actually.
"Good thing we have Mr. Larson for mechanics next" Fox grins, pulling away from me, getting up off the floor, pulling me up along with him, dragging me to class.
I let him drag me, not feeling like putting up a fight, especially with him. "Do you have snacks?" I ask as we walk into the garage, heading over to our work bench, in the back.
"Just for you" he smiles, setting down his bag on the table, opening it, and pulls out a baggy full of my favorite snacks.
"Thank you!!!" I squeal hugging him softly, as he wraps his arms around my back, hugging me back softly.
"No problem, Princess" he smiles, pulling away as the bell goes, walking over to the closet grabbing his work uniform, going to change.
I do the same, smiling softly, walking into the girls changing room, humming to myself softly. I fix the straps of my tank top and tie the sleeves of the jump suit around my waist, walking out, grabbing my tool belt, and wrapping it around my waist waiting for the teacher to start the class.
"Ready to finish our project?" Fox asks as he walks up behind me, putting on his belt.
I turn to him smiling softly, nodding, "Yep" I say walking over to the car, popping open the hood, humming softly, bopping my head.
I hear Fox chuckle a little, as he leans over the hood, looking at the part we where trying to finish yesterday. I lay on the rolling board, rolling under the car, putting in my ear buds, looking up, tinkering with something, before actually trying to fix it.
I feel something or someone tap my foot, lifting my head hitting it off the car, taking out my ear buds, rolling out from under the car looking up at him, rubbing my forehead, "What?" I ask a little annoyed.
He squats down, looking at my forehead, "Sorry squirt, just checking if everything is okay down under" he smiles slightly.
I sigh softly, making a face as my head hurts from the impact from the hit, "Its okay" I mumble, pulling myself up off the board, stumbling a bit.
"You hit it pretty hard" he says frowning softly, grabbing my arm before I could fall over onto the pile of screws.
"Yeah, or I just forgot how to walk" I say pulling away from his hand, walking over to my bag grabbing my water, taking a big chug from it, feeling a little dizzy.
He lets out a soft chuckle, walking over, sitting on the stool "so are you going to the homecoming game tonight?" Fox asks, looking up at me with his soft eyes.
"Yeah, im taking photos for the yearbook" I say sitting on a stool next to him, spinning around, giggling softy.
He nods "I was thinking of not going, but if you are there" he grins "I might just have to go"
I look over at him, as my cheeks flush red "okay, but I will definitely be taking one or two photos of you, no buts no no's" I smile innocently looking at him.
He leans his head back, letting out a sigh "fine, only two though" he rolls his eyes, sitting up straight turning the stool around to face the workbench, pulling out a pencil from the cup, that sat upon a stack of car material magazines.
I smile brightly, spinning around, stopping myself becoming dizzy, looking over at the blueprint of the car, watching him shade in what we worked on today. I reach over grabbing a pencil as well, writing a description of the job we did.
The bell rings, and I get up from the work bench, swinging my bag over my shoulder "I'll see you later" I look at him with a soft smile.
"See ya" he says, giving me a small smile getting up, grabbing his bag, walking towards the door, as I follow behind, thinking about what I am going to wear for the football game.
