chris never understood what dejahs problem was with him, and although she'd never say it out loud, everyone could tell. she found it so easy to talk to his two brothers, nick and matt, but just always had a grudge against him.

he watches from afar, as she speaks to nick. she's laughing, what was she laughing about? why does she never laugh at chris? he rolls his eyes and faces her older brother, nathan, who's in college. he comes every now and then to their school as his campus is right next to it.

"i gotta go back to campus" speaks nathan, standing up from his seated position on the table. chris does the same and daps him up.

"cya" he says, making his way over to nick and dejah. "hey guys" he says, introducing himself. nick smiles at him, but dejah stayed quiet.

"i actually gotta go, i'll cya later nick" she says, taking a quick glance at chris before walking away. she made it very clear that she was saying goodbye to nick, and nick only as she emphasised his name. chris watches as she walks away before turning to nick.

chris furrows his eyebrows, "what were you guys talking about?" he asks, trying to see what had made her laugh.

"oh, just something about how mr musgrove fell over in history, it was soo funny" giggles nick, laughing just talking about it. chris gives him a half smile and grabs his phone out of his pocket.

he goes onto imessages and messages matt, asking him where he was, "i haven't seen matt all day" he says, looking up at nick for a quick second

nick nods his head in agreement, "yeah, neither." he says, "i'm gonna head to class, i'll cya later." he says, walking away.

chris waits for matts reply, which doesn't come so he decides to head to maths by himself. he tucked his phone into his pocket and made his way towards the stairs to get to maths. on his way there, he spots dejah walking by herself, and chris being chris, he saw this as an opportunity to start conversation as they're both alone. chris takes a shortcut so that they could meet halfway and he doesn't seem like such a creep as it will seem natural, "oh, hey dejah! didn't see you there" he says, walking beside her. dejah looks away and pretended to not hear him, walking faster to loose him. "did you hear about the fall with mr musgrove?" he asks, hoping she would laugh at him.

dejah smiles, but it's so minuscule that you could barely see it, but hey! atleast it's still a smile. chris jogs slightly towards her, "you're in maths right?"

dejah stops for a second to scoff, before speaking, "yes, i'm in your next lesson" she says, slowing down to walk with him as she knows he's not gonna give up trying to talk to her anyways. she opens the door to the classroom and sits at the back. chris sits in the seat in front of her, as that's the only seat available. dejah tapped chris on the shoulder, "have you seen matt by the way?"
