TODAY IS THE DAY OF OUR PRESENTATION. The very same one Carson messed up when we were practicing and experimenting that landed us in detention.
Which leads me to now where I'm currently gaining the strength I'll need for that class at my locker.
"Hey Mani! What's up?" Alex yells as she approaches me throwing herself on me. I stumble a little as she does so laughing and hugging her back with one arm.
"Nothing much, just preparing for the presentation I have with the asshole today." I say quietly groaning and shutting my locker door shut.
"Carson?" She questions, "duh who else." I reply with a sigh turning to face her. Alex simply laughs in my faces before continuing.
"It's not that big of a deal, you'll be fine." She comments as we begin walking down the hall to out first periods.
"It's a very big deal the last time we tried practicing the prompt he made the whole thing explode and gave us detention. If I get detention again I will literally punch him." I threatened.
"Glad to know you think so highly of me princesa." The devil himself speaks from beside me.
I whip my head to the left so quick it hurts. "Where the hell did you come from?" I question genuinely confused as to how he got here.
"A magician never reveals his secrets," He says throwing his arm around my shoulder. I groan and turn to look at Alex only to find shes no where to be seen.
I look around in search of her but nada.
"She left a while ago." Carson explains, "are you sure you won't cause us to mess this project up?" He jokingly questions.
I groan and flip him off quickly escaping his hold and speeding up down the rather empty hallway.
"Hey!" Carson shouts running to catch up making me speed up my pace to a jog.
"Gotcha," he says when he finally catches up his arms wrapped around my waist. I stare into his warm hazel eyes as he stares back into mine.
For a moment it fells like time stops around us. It fells like it's just us.
Carson begins to lean forward our faces almost touching when a grouchy voice calls out.
"What are you two hooligans doing? Class is about to start in one minute I suggest you get in here Imani before I mark you late!"
My first period teacher Mrs. Boras yells. I feel my body heat up as I realize the position I'm in with Carson and that fact we got caught in that position.
I immediately back away from Carson as if he's burned me and briskly walk into the classroom. Before I fully enter I turn back to see Carson smiling at me.
He gives a small wave before turning around and heading back down the hallway we came from.
"I don't wanna see any more hokey-pokey from you again young lady." Mrs. Boras announces gaining some unwanted attention making my body heat up even more.
