Kalani's POV
"What do you mean there is no more chocolate chip cookies!" I asked frustrated.
The lunch lady didn't respond she just shrugged.
"Calm down Kalani, just get an oatmeal cookie. You like oatmeal cookies don't you?" Alyssa said as she tried to calm me down.
"But, I want a chocolate chip cookie!" I exclaimed glaring at her.
"Here, why don't you just take mine," said a voice in front of me.
I looked up and almost died. The "hottest guy in the whole universe" was offering me his chocolate chip cookie. I took the cookie, and looked down at the floor, because suddenly that was more interesting than anything else. But, then I looked up again to say "Thank you."
"You're welcome. But, I would like to know what the name of the girl I gave my cookie to is," he said with a smirk.
"Oh...um...my name is Kalani," I replied shyly.
"Oh well nice to meet you. I'm Cory. But, I'm pretty sure you already know who I am," again he said with a smirk.
"Yeah," was all that came out of my mouth.
"Well, see you around. Enjoy your cookie," he smiled turning around and walking to his table. I swear he winked at me though. But then again, I was probably hallucinating.
"Bye," I said, but he didn't hear me.
I turned to look at Alyssa. "Alyssa, did that really happen?"
"Mh-mm," she replied obviously surprised by what just happened.
"Okay, I taught I was just dreaming. "
"You weren't. But, don't get to excited."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean no offense, but a guy like Cory would never go for a girl like us. If he did it would probably be for sex only," what she said sounded harsh, but it was the truth. I mean have you seen Cory. He literally looks like a model. But me and Alyssa, well we weren't exactly known for our looks in school.
"You're right."
"I know I am. But, you do know I wasn't trying to be mean. I'm just watching out for you."
"I know you are. And, that's why I love you," I said hugging her.
•••
After lunch came 5th period. I had 5th period with Cory Sanchez. I also had 1st and 3rd period with him. But that didn't really matter he didn't even know I existed. When he gave me his cookie, that was the first time he talked to me. He probably forgot about it by now so I didn't get my hopes up.
"Okay class today, we will be starting our end of the quarter project," Mrs. James, my 5th period social studies teacher announced to the class. As soon as she finished, the classroom was soon filled with groans and complains coming from the whole class including myself. Don't get me wrong, I liked school but, school work always stressed me out.
"Oh calm down guys. Like I said earlier this week, this is a group project and I will be assigning your partners," again the students complained. I on the other hand don't have a problem with her picking my partner. It's not like any of my friends were in my 5th period class.
In fact 5th period would be my least favorite class if I was judging the classes by who the people in my class were. 5th period was full of the "popular" crowd. It had Cory Sanchez which was the schools hottest guy and player. Jessica Davidson, who Alyssa and I liked to call "Cory's Main Hoe". Yes Alyssa and I were lowkey cruel. Valentin Gomez, who was Cory's best friend, was also in this class, along with a whole lot of people that were considered "popular". I was probably the only "nerd" in this class.
"Okay lets get going. James Anderson and Alicia More," Mrs. James started calling out the partners.
"Jessica Davidson and Jennifer Contreras."
"Kalani Vasquez and Cory Sanchez."
Shit!
Even though I had my first encounter with him earlier today, I did not want to have another encounter with him.
I didn't have any interest in getting to know him at all. That first encounter got to my head and it made it seem like I was one of his fans. But, to be completely honest, he was a fuckboy and I don't fuck with fuckboys. Excuse the profanity.
Cory was the type of guy that could get any girl he wanted. He has an ego the size of China. And people like that annoy me. Now I'm just sitting back and thinking of all the drugs that could have been in that lunch that made me act the way I did.
I guess I was too far up in my thoughts because the next thing I know is that Cory is sitting in front of me.
"What's up Kalani? How'd you like that cookie?" he asked with his famous smirk.
"Okay," I decided to go with one word answers.
"So this project huh."
"Yeah." I really hope he doesn't make me do all the work by myself. I already have work to do from other classes and I don't need him to make me do more work.
"Okay, how about we meet up at my house tomorrow at 7?" he asked. But, I had to be careful because knowing the reputation Cory has, he would rather fuck. But, who am I kidding? I'm sure Cory wouldn't want to fuck me.
"Sure."
"Gimme your number so I can text you the address," he asked taking his phone out.
I usually didn't give out my number but this was school related to I kind of had too.
After we exchanged numbers, for school purposes only that is, the bell rang and we were off to 6th period.
Even thought it may seem like I don't care about going to Cory's house, I did care. I've never been to a guys house by myself so this was kinda new.
I shrugged it off when I realized that it wasn't a big deal.
And plus I still have at least a day to calm myself down.
