(Friday, 10+ hrs. until dance)

Because the school was having an event, they decided to let us have a half day today. Meaning, school would go to one instead of three thirty (PM). 

Yet nobody was actually doing school anyway.

Mr. Byron angrily hit his staff against the desk of a girl who was chattering with her friends at the table next to her. "You will NOT. Talk. In my. Class." He hissed through his teeth. The talking girls immediately stopped out of pure fear. Mr. Byron didn't really threaten, but it was kinda implied.

"Wow. Who broke his favorite beaker?" One of the girls whispered as soon as Mr. Byron turned around. 

"DETENTION Ms. Smith." 

Poor girl, she forgot that Mr. Byron has super hearing. 

Leon and Jessie usually would share a look when that happened. But today, Jessie was nowhere in sight. She hadn't shown up to any of her classes, and Leon was slightly concerned. He hoped it wasn't anything he did.

At long last, he was released from his prison, (school). Forced to stand off to the side awkwardly as Sandy and Nita did their lovers thing, which was like an overload of cuteness being dumped on his head, he texted Jessie;

                                                                  1:03 pm

      Leon: Hey Jess, r u doing ok? I took some notes 4 u.

A few minutes passed. Nothing. It wasn't even read. Bored, and tired of hearing Nita's giggling while Sandy did and said stupid things to make her laugh, Leon slid down the wall a good distance down the hall, and read previous texts he had with Jessie;


      Jess: Hey Leon, how's the homework coming?

      Leon: Well, I was just about to start it and everything, when Bruce comes in and picks me up, and forces me to watch Tiktok so I don't get any work done

      Jess: Yeah, is that right? 🤨

      Leon: Yep. Then he made me swear I couldn't work on it unless u helped me

      Jess: So you're saying I need to come over so we can work on your homework.

      Leon:  Tysm Jessie!! Ur literally the best! 😍

      Jess:  Anytime 😘

      Jess: OH MY GOSH I DIDNT MEAN THAT EMOJI I MEANT THE ONE WHERE THEY ROLL THEIR EYES NOT THE KISS BLOW.

      Jess: I'm going to stop talking and come over now. Be there in ten.

      Leon: I love you
         (Deleted)

He remembered being slightly horrified when he sent that text, it was like his fingers had a mind of their own. Thankfully, he was able to delete it before Jessie saw it. Although sometimes he wondered what would happen if she did see it. 

She would think he's crazy and get a restraining order against him. Well, probably not, but something like that. He scrolled up to a few days ago.


      Leon: Hey Jessie

      Jess: LEON. I BURNED MY HAND. IT HURTS A LOT AND I CANT TREAT IT BECAUSE ITS MY GOOD HAND AND I DONT KNOW WHAT IM DOING AND NANI AND MOM ARE IN TOWN

      Leon: On it. Don't worry, considering I live out in the wilderness and go hunting with my sis, I know a thing or two. 

      Jess: Thank you! You are my hero.
