Finally, the class is over. Mr. Perez spoke so much Spanish that I got lost and it's only Spanish 1! Jake thought. He and Alec once again sat next to each other. Jake had to deal with Alec's constant whining about not understanding what the teacher was saying. It drove him nuts. Jake just wanted to tape the blonde's mouth shut, but of course, he couldn't. Class just ended and the two boys were heading to their next period.
"Wait a sec...you're not in my next period, so why are you walking with me?" Jake asks Alec.
"How'd you know that?" Alec questions him back.
"I saw your schedule earlier, dummy."
"Oh...right. I just wanted to walk with you."
"If I let you walk with me, would you be completely silent the whole way?"
"Maybe-"
"Yes or no."
"Yes..."
"Okay then! Let's go."
Jake leads the way to his next class, culinary arts. He had been looking forward to this class the whole day. His hobby had always been cooking and Jake wanted to expand his knowledge further on it. While thinking about the many things that he would learn in this class, Alec sneakily put his arm around the boy's shoulder. Jake felt it, but he just let him have his way. If he were to push Alec's arm off, the bully would've whined and bothered him the rest of the way. At last, they reached the culinary arts room. Alec ruffles Jake's hair and leaves for his next class. Upon entering the room, Jake bumps into a familiar girl. It was the same girl from during lunch. She looks up at him with her big doe-like eyes. Jake apologizes and asks for her name.
"Oh, hi! My name is Hazel. It's nice to meet you!" The girl says cheerfully.
"Likewise. My name's Jake." He tells her. They both talked to each other until the bell rang. Jake decides to sit next to Hazel. They surprisingly got along well pretty quickly. The culinary teacher, Ms. Carroll, began talking about the overview of the course and safety.
"Okay, class! Take this form home and get your parent or guardian's signature on it. The faster we get these forms in, the faster we'll get cookin'." Ms. Carroll says.
"I'm so excited!" Hazel squeals, after the teacher stopped talking.
"Same! I've been looking forward to this class the whole day." Jake says, matching her energy. They began sharing their predictions on what dishes they'll make in class. Time flies by and 6th period ends. Jake is putting away his form and was about to leave when Hazel stops him.
"Hey...do you mind if I get your Photogram? If you have it, of course..." She nervously asks him. Jake felt his heart beat faster. Today's my lucky day! I can't believe that I get stay in touch with a girl that's just my type! He thinks to himself.
"Uh. Y-yeah, sure. It's Jake with a capital 'J' underscore Tran with a capital 'T'." He replies.
"Oh, cool! Is this you?" Hazel asks, showing him his profile just to clarify.
"Yup, that's me."
"Okay, I'll follow you. Well, I'll talk to you later!"
