17.

My alarm blared the next morning causing me to wake up frantically. "Is there not a way you can turn that down?" Julie tiredly asked. "I don't know." I sat and rubbed my eyes gently, "Wait when did you get in here?"

"I came in after you fell asleep, and I decided to just let you sleep." I nodded my head and sat there in silence. It took me a few minutes, but once I was adjusted to being awake I began getting ready for the day.

I shut our bathroom door and began brushing my teeth while staring in the mirror. Once I was done getting ready, I picked out some jeans, a plain shirt and a button up sweater. "Hey can I wear your converse today?" Julie asked.

"Yeah sure, I was gonna wear my Dr. Martens anyways." I packed my bag and began putting on my shoes. "How do I look?" Julie gave me a twirl while showing off her outfit. "You look gorgeous." I smiled.

She put on her shoes and we left our dorm. "So, considering you are speaking to me, does that mean we're on good terms?" Julie awkwardly asked. "Yes Jules, we're fine." I reassured. "Thank to lord, I was missing my roommate."

We left the dorm building and were heading to the actual school when Ken, Russ and Luis joined us. "Hey V, looking great." Ken complimented. "As are you." I replied in a fake British accent. "Excited for the game tonight?" Russ asked me.

"I mean yeah, it's gonna be awesome." I exclaimed. We entered the school and went our separate ways, I walked to my locker and grabbed my textbooks. "Hey Viv." Banks stood next to me. "Banksie, never call me that again." I patted his cheek.

"Why, I think it's cute." He replied. "Agree to disagree." I laughed. I shut my locker, "So what's up?" I questioned him as we stood along the lockers. "Well, I'm quitting Varsity tonight to join JV again." He admitted. "Wait really!?" I excitedly asked.

He nodded his head, "Yes!" I cheered while pulling him into a hug. "Don't die though, they get defensive." He laughed. We then began walking to class, "Wait is that Charlie?" Adam stopped as we looked down the hall.

We ran over to him, "Conway!" I cheered. "Hey man." Adam patted him. "Hey you two." He replied. "Decide to come back or something?" I questioned. "Or something." He smiled. We all hugged, "Shit we gotta go to class." I stated.

"See y'all!" I rushed away as the said bye. I entered my class as soon as the bell rang, "You got lucky Price." The teacher stated. "I know." I took my seat next to Finn. We sat there in silence as the lesson started, "Answer the questions on page 74."

I opened my book and started answering the questions, "Hey." Finn whispered. "Sup." I replied focusing on my work. "Im sorry about everything." He apologized. "It's alright." I finished the questions and closed my book.

"You sure?" He questioned. "Yes I'm sure." I smiled. He returned the smile and started working on his questions. I sat there quietly and drew on a blank page in my notebook. We had to turn in our answers at the end of class before we could leave.

"Okay class, we have 2 minutes before you leave put them on my desk." The teacher announced. The bell rung and everyone out their papers on his desk and rushed out of class.

I went to my locker replaced my books and walked to my next class. I sadly had this class with Luis and I sat next to him. I entered the class and sat down, a minute or so later Luis took his seat next to me.

The tardy bell rang and all the doors shut at once. "Okay class, pull out the pack from Friday and finish the next 3 pages." The teacher than sat back down on her desk and continued reading her book.

I pulled out the packet and began working on the next page. Luis nudged his leg against mine but I ignored it, he kept doing it until I looked over at him. "What?" I whispered. "What'd you put for this?" He asked pointing to a question.
