vance didn't care about school. why would he? he just HATES stepping foot onto school campus and entering the building.
"vance, if you don't get your grades up soon, you're going to have to redo this years ela, math, and history," ms cooper, the school counselor, said with worry in her voice.
vance just rolled his eyes and simply picked at his nails.
"do you even care about your future vance?" ms cooper tilted her head.
vance shrugged it off and earned a sigh in return.
"i suppose i'll have one of our top students tutor you," ms cooper leaned back into her seat and adjusted her glasses.
vance's eyes widened as he heard those words.
"tutoring? i don't know who the fuck you think you are, but i'm not gonna have some dorky ass shithead teach me some kind of school shit," vance snapped with some sort of disgust in his eyes.
"language, and this is not a choice. you either drop out, or you accept the offer." ms cooper looked through her computer to find a student who can maybe improve vance's grades.
vance REALLY want to drop out, but he also didn't want to make his mom disappointed. his mother always wanted him to grow up with good grades so he could be successful in the future.
"..fine," vance grumbled.
ms cooper nodded in relief and looked scrolled through the screen, looking at the list of students with straight a's.
ms cooper found a particular student.
bruce yamada.
bruce is a straight a student who plays baseball, has a scholarship to an amazing college, and had a good reputation in school.
"how about bruce yamada, vance? does he not sound like a good choice?" ms cooper suggested with a sweet grin.
bruce? vance swears he's heard of that name before.
oh shit.
it was bruce. the one vance had always teased and made fun of in elementary.
"is there a problem with it, vance?"
"uh, i um- i just think that—"
the school counselor sighed, "vance, bruce is a good student. i think he could really help you improve your grades."
vance's leg started bouncing up and down uncontrollably.
holy shit.
it was going to be so awkward with bruce tutoring him after all the shit he's done to him back then.
"you're going to meet him after school tomorrow. please, come to my office." the counselor looked into vance's eyes with a 'just come and get it over with' look.
"okay..." vance mumbled as he got out of his seat and left the room.
JANUARY 3RD, 4:02 PM
"vance, sit down here. bruce should be here any minute now." ms cooper suggested.
vance sat and slumped into his seat, waiting for bruce.
"sorry i'm late, mr randall wanted to talk to me about something," bruce rushed in, rubbing the back of his neck and grinning awkwardly.
"no, don't apologize. i understand. please, sit here," ms cooper suggested as she pointed to the seat next to vance with her eyes.
bruce gave a nod and sat down.
"so, as you both know, you two will be working together as one to improve this young man's grades. do you two perhaps know each other? i am aware that you two went to the same elementary school," she asks with curiosity.
"yes! we know each other, but we weren't the closest, haha.." bruce glanced at vance but then quickly turned away.
"that's nice to know! well, you two may start your first tutoring session tomorrow after school at the library from 4:00 to 6:30 PM. bruce, will this conflict with your after school baseball practice?" ms cooper asks bruce.
"not at all. my practice starts at 6:45 PM so i'll have time," bruce exclaims.
"perfect! well, you two may go home now. thank you for coming," ms cooper grinned widely.
"thank you!" bruce walked out waving at the counselor.
vance rolled his eyes and walked out behind bruce.
"hey. dickhead," vance calls out.
bruce looks behind him, with a confused expression.
"huh? yeah?"
"are you gonna ride that shitty bike home?"
"it's not that bad, and no. i'm walking home," bruce stated, "why do you care anyway?"
"i'm just wondering fuckhead," vance murmured.
"ah, okay... bye then! i'll see you tomorrow!" bruce smiled and walked the opposite direction of vance.
"whatever..." vance turned around and walked home.
