Unexpected partners

Minji POV

*bzzt bzzt*

The annoying sound I'm definetly not used to filled up my entire bedroom. I groaned and lazingly rolled over hitting the snooze button on my alarm clock. "Fuck you, five more minutes.." I said to..the alarm clock as if it was a real person and immediately went back to sleep.

After who knows how long the same buzzing sound flooded the room. This time I actually had it in me to get up. I opened my eyes slowing, sighing as I looked over at the time. My eyes slowly adjusted as I read the numbers "9:35"

Fuck!

I jumped out of bed, this was gonna be another tardy day I didn't need. I was already falling behind in my classes and the last thing I wanted was to get camped back. I mean I'm a few months away from freedom! I turned off my alarm clock and began rummaging through my closet. I picked out a black sweatshirt and matching cargo pants. I threw my old clothes on the ground, quickly putting on the new.

I rushed over to the bathroom and ran water over my face. I looked at myself in the mirror, seeing my eyebags and messy face and hair. I look like a fucking mess. I sighed, picking up my toothbrush as I noticed a weed bag that I didn't remember placing there. Fuck that is so damn tempting. Self control Kim, self control.

After a bit I was all ready, I silently made my way downstairs hoping my dad wasn't up yet.

And wow to my amazing luck there he was.
Sitting down at the table, starting early with a beer can.

I cleared my throat, "Uhh. hey dad. I'm off to school." He looked up from the papers on the table, "Mhm..make sure to sell everything today, yeah?" I nodded quickly practically rushing to leave and I'm glad he let me without further conversation.

I stared at my motorcycle for a little, it was my mom's old one, she taught me how to ride before she...I shook my head. No need to get depressed right now. I strapped on my helmet and hopped on it. It's not a long drive so I got to school within a few minutes.

I parked and rushed into school trying to remember what class I even have right now.
After remembering I barged into the class and got met with a whole bunch of stares.

"Ms.Kim! Late once again, what's your excuse this time hm?" My history teacher, Ms.Shin said pointing at me. I fumbled over my words thinking of something, "I- uh.. car troubles!" I said with a smile knowing I rarely drive cars to school unless it's a friend.

"Yeah yeah, whatever go ahead and have a seat." I looked around the classroom remembering I have absolutely no friends this period.

I sat in my usual spot, the back and put on my headphones leaning back in my chair. I zoned out half the class and finally came back to reality sometime inbetween.

"Alright class so about the partners for the project." Ms. Shin started talking. Fuck, project? I'm so done, what's it even about? "I'm going to be picking the partners to change it up a little! You guys really need to get out of your comfort zones."

The class clearly disagreed with dramatic sighs and groans.

I for one didn't care I just had to pray I got someone smart! "Now, I will be also switching up your seating arrangements since this project will take up most of the quarter. Who you sit by will be your partner for the project, no switching!" Ms. Shin said as she looked down at her clipboard. I swear clipboards make everyone look so professional.

She stared to move around people and I waited till I heard my name. "Now..Ms. Pham you'll be sitting in the back by Ms. Kim."

I sighed, out of all people Hanni fucking Pham!?
Her parents are rich assholes that constantly try to put my dad in jail and cant stand "junkies" like myself. And she's is the damn same, a basic rich white girl and everyone kisses her perfect ass.

"Who?" Hanni said looking around earning a few giggles from the rest of the class. I hate people like this. We definetly do not get along.

Ms. Shin cleared her throat, "Well, Ms. Kim can you raise your hand." I lazingly raised it, rolling my eyes as she made her way over to me sitting next to me.

Ms. Shin kept arranging seats as Hanni looked over to me. Her black hair spread over her shoulders, now I couldn't lie she is really pretty but that bitch attitude gets me.

"What?" I asked her as her stare was getting weird. "Why do you always manspread? Your not like a boy or anything." She said looking down at my legs then back up. Is she serious..?

"Well, no shit sherlock. Why are you looking down here anyway princess" I clearly caught her off-guard when she quickly looked away.

"Princess? Ew, don't call me that" I shrugged, continuing to manspread as I played my music again. I started to zone out again and I was glad I didn't have to continue the conversation for the remainder of class.

I once again snapped back to reality once the bell rung. Hanni turned to me, "So, whose house are we working at?" I gave her a confused look,

"Huh?"

She looked at me as if I was dumb, "The project duh, we have to work on it after school." Oh right, I already forgot..

"I mean being inside of the mayors house has always been on my bucket list." I shrugged starting to get ready to leave.

"Well I'm sure my parents will disagree with that..you know." Hanni said clearly implying they wouldn't want someone like me at their house.

I nodded already knowing beforehand, but the problem was my house wasn't exactly the best option.

First, my dad is a big problem but I guess since he usually works nights it won't be a big deal.

Second, my house is a mess I'm gonna have a lot to clean up.

"I guess..my house can work. I'll have to see." I said putting on my backpack.

"Alright, give me your phone." She said holding out her hand.

"So..you want my number? Aw, I wonder what your boyfriend will think about this!" I said with a wink handing her my phone.
"Oh, shut up." Hanni said while putting her number in. "Unfortunately we'll have to call later." She handed me my phone back as she made her way out of the class.

"See ya princess." I called out as she stuck up the middle finger. Wow, this is gonna be a fun project.
