His Lucky Shot

Apologies

°Ivy 🌿

The weekend went by really fast and soon enough it was Monday.

Indigo was chilling in my kitchen while cutting up a strawberry. "I can't believe Xavier's coming back."

She mumbles.

From what I've heard him, Kai and Dante are the schools biggest trouble makers but it wasn't as bad when he left.

Indie and I get along, like along along. She's like my other half. She kind of reminds me of Sage, my twin. But that's a topic for another day.

Rest easy twin.

"We're late Indie, let's go." I tell her, passing her her bag.

"Fine." She groans, shoving strawberries into her hoodie. Can't believe she's a year younger than me and only a grade below us.

We go down to the parking lot, she's driving with me cause Dante and the others left earlier, we were gonna leave at the same time if Indi didn't convince me to stay a little longer.

She plays The weeknd until we arrive.

I park at my usual spot and we rush into the building.

We get to our usual spot by the lockers where everyone was, including Xavier.

"Hey, unswallowed children." I greet.

Xavier looks at me with a huge smile.

"I like her already." He says hugging me from the side.

"I'm Ivy by the way." I introduce myself. He nods. "Im your boyfriends favorite cousin."

Both Dante and I cringe at his choice of words.

"OK let's not go that far." I laugh.

We start chatting and the topic soon goes to how Xavier convinced them to take him back.

And as if he's been waiting for this question he takes out a neatly folded paper and gives it to us.

'Dear principal Jacob's, I am very sorry for what I did even though it was an accident. But anyways I won't do it again so please take me back.

Love xoxo. Xavier Woods.'

All of us burst into laughter after we read the note.

"There's no way!" Indi wheezes out.

"Jacob's has a crush on me I swear." Xavier says shaking his head.

Dante somehow ended up next to me and I roll my eyes at him.

I don't say anything cause I'm currently ignoring him.

"Of course you are ignoring me." He mumbles.

The bell rings and we start walking to class, while Indi went a different direction.

We get to register period and take our original seats. When the rest walk in they have shocked faces when they see Xavier.

"What's first period?" Kai asks.

"English." I answer.

"Fuck my life." He groans. Same.

After register, we walk to English.

After the teacher writes down the notes she gives us some work. Everytime I'm in this class I am overworked. Cause we're here for an hour and 20

I finished the work with 8 minutes of the rest of the lesson. Suddenly a  chair is placed next to my table.

Dante.
