Chapter Fifteen.

ROMEO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND Spencer. He sees that look in the other's eye, and feels hope course through his heart, that they'll kiss. But they never do. And Romeo still doesn't quite know what exactly it was that he even wants from Spencer White. He sure as hell doesn't want Spider as his boyfriend, no, that's something entirely different.

But the fact he's so tireless on the idea of having his lips locked with Spider's bothers him so deeply. There was no way this was in any way love or anything of the sorts. He excuses it as purely lust everytime he thinks about it. There's something seriously wrong. He never even felt this way with Missy. Maybe it's different because he actually had a crush on Missy, and not this whole academically and sports-fueled fued he has with Spider.

Yeah. That must be exactly why.

Today's seating in SLTs was different, Stevie, Enya and he sat at the tables grouped together in the front of the class, Enya and Stevie are sitting side by side as he sat with Cash at the other side of the two tables. He now glanced up, slyly looking towards where Spider was seated, just as Jojo spoke up, "so, remember, peeps, this isn't a guessing game." She says after Darren walked up and tossed in their piece of folded up paper. "It's an exercise in normalizing our what?" She asked now as she puts her hand up to her ear.

"Wants and needs." She says in sync with the students who repeated the same words. "That's right. I don't want to hear any shaming. Am I clear? Alright. Who's first? Enya." Jojo says and the girl sighs, getting up. "You got this." Stevie whispers and she rolls her eyes, walking up to the front of the classroom.

She opened up the box and took out the paper, which she unfolded. "I have to know the person properly before I have sex with them." She says and a girl in the back aww's. "Very good and very common." Miss Obah says as Enya went back to take her seat and Sasha raised her hand. "Sasha." Jojo said.

The pink haired girl grabs the next paper, unfolding it. "I can only cum to house music." She read and everyone laughs. "That's Ant." Spider quips. "Yeah, so what if it is?" The Vaughn says. "Respect, bro." Spider and Ant fist bump as Stevie scrunched up her nose. "How does Spider even know that?" She whispered which made Enya giggle quietly and Cash just snorts as Romeo looked away, around the classroom.

Amerie went up next, taking out a paper. "Um, it just says foot. Like, not feet. Just foot." She says and everyone is laughing. "I'd like to go next!" Stevie raised her hand excitedly so Jojo gestured. She takes out a paper, unfolding it, "I don't like feeling the way I do." She said then she awkwardly cleared her throat, as no one even reacted to it.

"Join the club, am I right?" She says and then laughed, so some chuckles go around, but Romeo was just staring down at the table, his arms crossed. Stevie goes to take her seat, glancing at Romeo as Missy raised her hand next and Jojo gestured her to go. The Beckett girl takes out a paper, "Harper likes getting double-dicked by Dusty and Malakai." Her voice falters as she read it.

"Who the fuck wrote this?" Missy asked, looking around as Ant and Spider laugh. "Wait, Malakai and Harper?" Sasha says as Amerie looks at Malakai now. Romeo looked over at the couple, worriedly. "Spider, pack your things." Jojo said sternly. "Miss, I did not write that." Spider denied. "No, I don't care! Office."

"Fuck." Spider says, standing up. "Malakai. Malakai." Amerie says to the boy who wouldn't even look at her. "It's not true, right?" She asked and he doesn't say anything. Romeo glanced around the rest of the classroom, then looked at Spider. "You fucking slut!" Amerie shouted at Harper and makes Spider laugh, the blond boy standing in the doorway.

"Fuck you!" Malakai got up fast and Romeo was quick to get up as well, as did Dusty and Ant. "Whoa! Chill, dude." Anthony exclaimed as Romeo at least got his hand onto Malakai's shoulder, Dusty also holding him back. "He's not worth it, Malakai." Romeo says, now putting his other hand against his other shoulder as Malakai just pushed Dusty away, who backs away quickly, with Ant right behind him. "Okay, that's enough. That's enough." Jojo said, rushing over to the four boys.
