The Unexpected

Chapter 4

"Calmer s'il vous plaît." Mrs Jackson tried to calm us down for our quiz.

We got our quizzes and went silent. I found the questions easy but would Tanner? I didn't want to look back. I just need him to do well, we all do.

"Fini." Mrs J announces.

I finished a while ago but did Tanner, okay i need to stop with this.

The bell rang and i saw Tanner rush out. Uh Oh, bad sign?

He didn't come to my house last night for tutoring, i guess he only comes when needed.

"Who's that boy that was here yesterday?" My mom asks.

"I'm tuoring him." I answer.

"Have you started looking for a job?"

"No, mom."

"Ugh, lazy. Good luck getting into University." She walks off.

It's not that im lazy, i need to focus on school, with a high average i can get a scholarship. But she wouldn't understand that.

* * *

Mrs J was handing back our quizzes. She handed back mine, 88%. Not bad. I smile at myself.

"Good job Tanner." She hands back his quiz. I couldn't tell what he got but i could tell by the look on his face that he did pretty good.

"Woah, wanna share your tutor?" One of his friends ask.

"My tutor didn't help, this was all me boys."

His comment angered me. Without me, he would of failed. Whatever, as long as he passed. So i can look forward to France.

* * *

Literally getting shoved side to side, trying to dodge people so i can just get to my locker.

Now my lock refuses to unlock, great.

"LOOOOK!" Tanner shouts as he shoves his quiz into my face.

78%.

"How do you manage to do that great without a tutor?" I ask sarcastically.

"Oh, you heard that? I was just showin' off cupcake." And he walks off to meet with his pals.

I hate you. I mouth.

* * *

"Oh my god, Megan. He's driving me insane." I whine.

"Let me guess, Tanner?"

"He keeps coming over WHENEVER so i can tutor him and treats me like scum. "

"Why are you complaining Fay, he's sexy as hell and he's in your bedroom almost everyday."

We both laughed at how ridiculous that just sounded.

* * *

It was 7pm and i knew i'd be expecting Tanner tonight since we have a test tomorrow. I thought I would beat him to it. I gathered my books and walked over next door.

DING DONG

"Fay?" He opens the door, his hair is slightly messy, looked like he was in the middle of nap.

"Were studying at your house, hope you don't mind." I didn't wait for him to answer, i walked right in. Oh no, his bad habits were rubbing of on me.

"Umm.." He looked around makig sure nothing was unusual. "Fine."

He takes me to the livingroom. We walk by the kitchen, pizza boxes were piled ontop of eachother, beer cans all over the place.

"You live alone?" I asked.

"No, mind your own business."

Didn't mean to offend him.

While we studied, Tanner looked really paranoid, like he was waiting for someone to walk in.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Fine, i think im good for tomorrow." He gathers my books and rushes me out. But before we make it to the front door, a man stumbles in.

"Oh, we have a guest." He slurs.

I was certain this was his dad. They looked very alike.

Tanner tries to shove me through the door but his dad grabs my wrist and pulls me back in.

"No, stay." His breath reaked of alcohol.

"Dad!" Tanner tries to break his grip off my wrist.

"Go." He shoves me right through and slams the door.

That, was, interesting.
