Deranged Youth | book one

Chapter 10

This morning was a disaster. School starts are 7:30 and I woke up at 7:15! In that 10 minutes I brushed my teeth while going through my clothes and legit threw on my black joggers and red LIFEGUARD hoddie and shoved my feet into my maroon vans and ran out the door with my hair in a messy bun and backpack hanging on my right shoulder.

I grabbed a gronala bar and a bottle of orange jucie and ran out the door with the keys in my hands. When I was in the car it was 7:26 and I had to speed through the stop lights. Surprised that I didn't get a ticket. Really I am. Anyways I ran into school at 7:29 and shoved my backpack in my locker and quickly grabbed my English textbook and binder. Lucky for me, the class was only half way down the hall and I made it with a frickin milla-second to spare. No joke.

Panting, I get into the closest seat and catch my breath. 

Geez, what a way to start my day.

****

I switch out my english stuff with my science stuff and I head to art, which is all the way across campus. I grab my science stuff now because science is near art and I'd rather get there early then running across campus a million times in one morning. Plus, I've had my excersice of the day by rushing this morning. I walk through the halls and make my way up the stairs that lead into the another mini building that has the drama, art, computer, woodshop, and cooking classes. 

When I make it up the 5 steps of stairs and I find Aaron and Zach welcoming me by the doors.

"Hey boys." I smile and try to pass them to open the doors.

"Not so fast princess." Zach says as he blocks my way with his very attractive and muscular body.

If anything I certainly don't look like a princess.

Aaron steps forward and says, in a less agressive voice than what Zach used, " We heard you talked to Johhny about the whole vandalism stuff." Even though his voice is less agressive it's still pretty stern and intimidating.

I frown and, trying to be confident, I say, "Actually, he talked to me."

"Whoa! No sass, princess. We're just here to warn you." Zach says all up in my face.

"About what? Is Johnny gonna hurt me or something?" I scoff. "I'm not scared of him." 

Actually... he's quite intimidating...

I walk passed them and Zach grabs my wrist and I get thrusted into him. Into his rock hard chest....

I sigh. "What? I'm gonna be late for class."

"Babe, we're just trying to explain all of this to you." Zach gets all touchy and gets a hold of both of my hands. "I want to protect you."

I sense the teasing in his voice and I say, "Cut the bullshit and tell me so I can get to class." I hate when guys are like this. Even if their not joking like Zach is. I hate how they think they can swoop a girl, head over heels, just by being all sweet and touchy. 

Nu-uh. Not in my book.

"Ooh. We got a feisty one." He looks over at Aaron who rolls his eyes and pushed Zach so he's now in Zach spot, which is in front of me.

"Anyway, Johnny doesn't like it when the whole vandalism stuff gets out and people start to know and make rumors about it." Aaron says calmly, but I can sense a bit of annoyance in his voice.

I shoot him the "am I really that stupid" look and say, "And why would I do that? Do you really think that I'd want to tell people this?" I look back and forth between the two of them and walk back to class.

This time they let me walk into the building, but because of that I was a couple seconds late. It didn't really matter because Mrs. Rose loves me and I wasn't punished. Unlike this one time when Mr. Randell (my english teacher in 1st period) gave me a lecture in front of the whole class about being late when I slept in (not surprising).

****

I walk into math class and usually I get here before Matt does, but, this time he got here first. He looks up from his phone (since it is really early) and smiles at me. Every since our little "almost kiss" thing happened I guess I've started to feel butterflies in my stomach every time he gives me that smile. But I'm always like that whenever a guy give me a little attention and I usually ignore the fact that I get butterlies around that guy because it gets me confused and I do stupid things. What can I say? I fall head over heels for guys. Unless if it's really obvious their bullshitting me. 

"Hey Maddie." Ugh, there he goes with that smile.

"Hey Matt." I say as I tuck in a loose peice of hair behind my ear. I slide into the seat next to him and I can feel my cheeks getting hotter. Being the smooth one that I am, I rest my hand on my cheek and pretend that I'm either really tired or trying to hid something on my cheek. Whatever Matt sees.

"So. I was wondering." Matt starts. I turn to him and he fiddles with his case on hisiphone and talks again. "There's this fair that I really want to go to," He looks at me with a nervous/ confinent face (if thats even a thing.) "with you."

And there it goes.

My cheeks are legit on fire.

Crap. Crap crap crap. Talk Maddie!!! Talk!!!!!!!!!!!

"You do?" I spit out.

I mentally give myself a face-palm.

Okay that was a stupid answer but lets just roll with it. We kind have no choice so...

"Yeah, I do." Matt gives me that smile again and I stay scilent. "It would be fun. You and me."

I look away from his smile and eyes that make me melt and smile back, probably like an idiot.

"I'd love to." I look at him and smiled.

Not like a idiot this time.
