It's currently 1 am so I apologize of there is any errors.

*alyssa*

"No you divide this," Jack said annoyed.

"But that's not how I was taught this morning," I whined.

Currently, we are in the middle of an argument about my physics homework. I absolutely hate this class. My teacher is the worst and doesn't explain anything properly. He also has a stern, thick accent that I can barely understand.

"That's not how I learned it though," he argued back.

"How do you even remember this shit. You're going to be a music producer not a physicist. I don't understand how you still know how to solve this stuff."

"We did a whole unit on it. This is just the beginning. Judging by how you are reacting to it, you most likely won't have a good time this quarter."

I groaned leaning back on the head board of my bed, "Can we take a break? I'm getting so freaking irritated."

"We've only done one problem and one other assignment. We can take a break later. You did say so yourself that you have a lot to do."

"Yes that's true. Also, an assignment that took an hour and a half because you only took Spanish your two required years and didn't learn anything."

"Well then why did they make google translate? To help you when you don't know it. That's how I got by."

"Yeah key words there, got by, and I don't want to just get by, I actually want to learn something. Also, my teacher said not to use it because it doesn't always give you the correct word or phrase. We've been over this before."

"Yeah, yeah," he sighed.

I took a deep breathe as I closed my eyes. Once I exhaled I leaned my head against Jack's shoulder.

I was enjoying the few moments of silence, trying to get physics out of my brain when Jack ruined it.

"You do realize that this counts as your break, right?"

"Jack, shut up!" I shoved him off of the bed.

"Owie, that hurt," he whined like a child, sitting back up on my bed.

"Oh get over it you wus."

"Not until you kiss my boo-boo better," he said in a ridiculous voice that you would hear from a three year old.

He showed me a little rug burn on his elbow that he just received from the rugged, old carpet in this room. Katherine's right. I should redecorate this place.

I gave his elbow a quick peck, "There. Better?"

"I don't know. I think I hurt my lips too when I fell. Can you kiss them to make it better?" He pouted.

"Ha ha. That's a funny one, JJ."

"Hey, it was worth a shot," he put his arm around me, pulling me closer to him.

There was a few more moments of comfortable silence.

"So," he broke the silence. "I talked to Cat the other day."

Okay, that was random.

"Oh! Are you guys friends again?" I asked now interested in his answer.

"Eh, we're getting there. I miss my basketball buddy though."

I giggled staying quiet so he can continue.

"She said something about junior prom coming up? Question mark?"

My eyes went wide. Of coarse she had to tell him about that.

"Where are you going with this Jack?" I looked at him.

"Maybe, I don't know. You and I can, possibly, go? Together? Maybe as each other's dates?" He interlocked his fingers with mine with hope in his eyes.

I laughed a bit, "Jack in all honesty, I really don't know people and what's the point of going to a dance that I don't know anyone? I'm flattered but no. Plus, you know I will get looks from people. I'd honestly rather stay home that night and watch old movies with you. Is that an alternative?"

I felt so flattered by his offer but I hated school dances. They were never my scene.

He sighed disappointed, "Alright, I understand but just keep the thought in the back of your head, maybe?"

Now I feel bad.

I nodded my head, "I will for you."

He smiled down at me.

This chapter I feel was crap.

I can't find anymore inspiration for this book and I'm sure as hell not giving up. I've come way to far to delete this book.

I've done that one too many times before.

So I may or may not be posting for a while. I just need some more time.

If I get a thought I promise I will update asap.

Don't worry, I promise I will never leave you guys hanging.
