MAYA'S POV

"Come on Carina" I chuckle, currently trying to drag her feet first out of bed, let's just say she has gotten out of the habit of waking at 5 am every day

"I'm tired" she groans into the pillow that she had cuddled up to

"I know you are, but we've got school"

"We can just call in sick and you can get your butt right back into bed and cuddle me all day" she offers, "I think I would prefer that to school"

"So would I, but I've already missed a ton of days back when Andy was a bitch to me and I wanted to avoid her at all costs, so I don't think I can miss anymore," I tell her

The amount of self-control right now is crazy.

"But-,"

"Not buts" I interject, watching as she comes out from under the pillow with a smirk on her face

"You've got a nice butt," she says, eyebrows raised as I'm quick to throw a pillow at her

"If you think that's the way of winning me over then I'm afraid you're wrong" I chuckle

"Fine, fine" she sighs, "I'll come to school on one condition"

"And that is?"

"That you wear the really nice jeans you have," she says, almost sounding as if there was no reason for it but I know her too well

"Mhm, the tight ones?" I ask, crossing my arms in front of me

"It's that or nothing"

"You're so annoying" I tease

About an hour later, I had convinced her to get up and we had just left the house to go to school

"Ok, that big ass cat needs to stop scaring the shit out of me," Carina says after having jumped into me, terrified as she saw it again

Now, I'm not going to lie, the neighbour does genuinely have a fat cat that is borderline obese but I could've sworn it was an indoor cat now, due to its many failed attempts at walking on a fence, all of which resulted in a large vet bill

Whatever, I'm probably wrong but it didn't really look too much like a cat either, I didn't see it last night, but I managed to catch a glimpse of it this time and it seemed as if it was tall, not very cat-like.

"We should probably hurry up, we're kind of late" I encourage, not enjoying the thought of having a big cat following us

*********

So... it turns out she wasn't kidding when she said she wouldn't go if I didn't wear the jeans.

Well, she probably would've but I'm a pushover what can I say?

So, I'm currently sitting in the middle of maths class wearing jeans that I'm pretty sure are a size too small, all because she wanted me to.

"I'm going to fail maths, I just know it" she decides, pushing her piece of paper away from her

"You aren't" I argue, knowing she is basically incapable of failing anything

"I am, I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to do"

"I would help you, but we are in the same boat here I'm afraid, so you can try and get Travis to help you, he's like a full-on mathematician"

"I'm screwed" she sighs, putting her head down on the desk, "You better get some rich person job, so we have some sort of money"
