After the Fall

Welcome back party! (Fluff and teasing)

One year later

*******************

"A C minus in Spanish and a C in my class." Lucas mentions while he sits at his desk, him leaning back in his chair while he looks at Dillion's report card in the folder, Dillion sitting besides his desk while the other students talk amongst themselves while they work. "What's going on Dillion? You're ruining my all A's streak." He lightly jokes.

Dillion chuckles lightly, him running his hands through his hair. "I'm sorry Coach, honestly High School math is harder than I thought."

"That's what I'm here for." Lucas says while putting down the folder and leaning forward in his chair. "It's not just in class Dillion, it's now during Practice as well. I know practice plus school and working during school can put a lot on you, but you have been doing that for a year now with no issues. What is so different now?"

Dillion looks down a little, trying to hide the smile on his face.

Lucas just chuckles while leaning back in his chair. "It's a girl isn't it?"

Dillions eyes widen while looking up at Lucas. "How did you...how did you..."

"Your facial expression said it all." Lucas responds, going to intertwine his fingers together while putting them behind his head, him leaning back in his swivel chair while he does so.

"I'm sorry I have been slacking off coach, I will do better I promise-"

"Woah woah woah slow down there Tiger. I'm not one of those teachers." Lucas laughs. "This is High School man, of course you are going to be ready to have a girlfriend. You just need to learn how to balance everything in your life, and if you are struggling with this let me know and I will help you. I want all of you to feel like you can approach me and I will gladly help you with anything you are struggling in. I want all of you all to pass and be successful."

Dillion smiles. "Thank you coach, I will definitely try and balance things. Have any suggestions?"

"Make a schedule. Write it down and just follow it, the schedule doesn't have to be set on what you do by the hour you can broaden it out a little bit make sure you make it to where you probably already have homework done before you go to hang out with..." Lucas says while motioning with his hands a little.

"Valerie." Dillion mentions.

"Valerie." Lucas nods. "Or you can do homework together yada yada it doesn't matter. Do something that works best for you to make sure everything gets done."

"Thank you Coach, I definitely will." Dillion replies. "And I am kind of struggling with the rooftop strategy with the law of exponents."

"Ah." Lucas nods while leaning forward in his chair. "Then me and you will meet after school Monday and go over it more."

"Sounds great, I'll be there." Dillion replies, going to put his report card back in his backpack. "So any plans for this weekend?"

"Max is suppose to be back by tomorrow Saturday middle of the day." Lucas replies.

"Oh! I read the article she made man! I am pretty sure Charlie is crying in prison right now!" Dillion laughs.

"The article dropped?!" Lucas questions.

"Uhh yeah!" Dillion says before he goes to surf through his backpack, giving Lucas the bent newspaper. "Just dropped today, I was cheering as I read it."

Lucas looks at the article, him reading it while smiling. Max and Nancy had to take a trip to New Mexico because there was a man..Charlie being the name that was forging fake ID's in order to have criminals get jobs and even being places around kids. As soon as police called the post about wanting an article to be dropped about it Nancy immediately took him up on the offer. Of course when the police of New Mexico called them they didn't gather as much evidence to put him into prison so Max and Nancy went there to get that evidence. It was a month long trip, and now since the article is done they will be able to come back.
