Super Beginnings

Chapter Forty Eight - Homework

So technically, at this moment in my book Mia is 15 and Whitney is still 17, at least for a few more episodes. i wanted to make it less weird of the two having a relationship for a little longer.

--------

Pete, Chloe, Clark and i finished our English Class and headed out into the busy halls of Smallville high. I adjusted my bag as the four of us made our way through the crowds talking.

"There is nothing like 50 minutes of Mr Austin's English class that works up an appetite." Clark joked

"Nothing like a six page biography due Monday to help me lose mine." Pete replied, making me laugh as we headed upstairs.

"The biography or the fact that our student subjects were randomly assigned." Chloe added

"Randomly?" I ask "Pete's convinced that the drawing was fixed."

"There are a dozen ladies in our class, each worthy of lengthy interrogation. I get stuck with Stan Gibson." he complained which only made it funner, you should have seen his face when he got his assignment. i didn't know a face could contort that way.

"The manager of the student store? I hear he's very..."Clark trailed off

"Efficient." Chloe and i chime

"funny. I'm about to learn more about the art of selling 'Go Crow' pennants than any human should have to endure." Pete retorted "You haven't stopped smiling since we left. Who's your victim." Pete teated

"Victims. The illustrious Mr and Miss Kent themselves. Mr Austin for whatever reason assigned the two of you as a duo. Lucky me."

"Us?" Clark and i ask.

"Oh, I take it back. Chloe's the one with the challenge." Pete laughed was we were nearing the top of the school

"What's that supposed to mean?" I call out him

"No offence but digging up six pages on either of you is gonna require serious excavation. Though I would start with the future Doctor Kent First." we headed into another hall.

"Yes and i'm sure that once I deploy my journalistic skills on you I'll be able to unearth a skeleton or two" she beamed towards us.

"You know, Chloe it's a class project, not a corruption scandal." Clark and I became nervous. Out of all people to get us as their subjects it had to be the one who would dig until a bone was found and that was never a good idea.'

"Relax, you two it's not like you have anything to hide, right." Before i could answer i squealed as i was lifted up into the air and twirled around

"Hey, gorgeous." It was Whitney. He let me down and I spun around so I could wrap my arms around him

"Weren't you ever told it was rude to scare people." i playfully narrowed my eyes at him, making him laugh

"Apologies, ma'am." he smirked in a southern accent then looked up "Hey guys. Don't mind if I steal my girlfriend, right?"

"Sure" Chloe smiled "Oh wait, when can i interview you?"

"Whenever you kind find me, games on." I laugh as i was taken away.

After school, I went to work for the next few hours and then I went to the Fordmans' store to pick up Whitney. I had worked with his Mom to help create a schedule so that he could work his way back up to the decent grades he wanted. He would work the same shifts as me, come and study at mine for a couple of hours and then go back for the last hour so he could close up. The two of us arrived back at the farm and headed inside.
