•DREW!!•

"Get back!" I hear someone shouting in the detention hall.

Keaton and I turn the corner, into the classroom. And we see  a sight that I was afraid would happen if I left.

"What the fuck Drew! You can't go two minutes without fighting!" Keaton shouts running towards Drew.

Drew was sitting on top of a beat up Wesley. The detention supervisor was trying really hard to pull Drew off of Wesley, but it didn't work.

Keaton grabs Drew's shoulder, and Drew turns his attention towards Keaton.

The look on Drew's face changes from pissed to a slightly surprised expression. It's like he just snaps out of it.

Drew let's go of Wesley, and walks out of the classroom. Keaton looks apologetically at the detention supervisor. And he just nods, excusing Keaton.

"Thanks!" Keaton exclaims running after Drew.

"You guys can go too." He says dismissing Wesley and I.

"What made him go all ape-shit!?" I ask Wesley when I pull him off of the ground.

We walk into the hallway, and Wesley decides to answer me.

"How the fuck should I know!?" Wesley shouts angrily. With that, he just storms off.

Jeez! He must have some anger issues!

Well, I'm walking home because Vivian took my car! Ugh! I'm not sure why I gave her my locker combination, she just took my keys out and left!

Our house is about half an hour away! I can't believe Vivian just ditched me!

"Hey!" Someone says from behind me. I turn around and see Keaton jogging up to me.

"Have you seen Drew anywhere?" He asks concerned.

"No..... Why?" I reply shaking my head.

"Just trying to find him, he ran off and disappeared."

"Would you like me to help you search for him?" I ask with a little concern in my voice.

"Ummm.... You don't have to...." He says politely.

"Nah! It's fine, I don't have anything better to do! My sister took my car, and I have a half an hour walk!" I explain with a sigh.

"Ok then." He replies with a small smile. I'm guessing that he likes having company.

"So um........ How long have you been playing basketball?" Keaton asks casually, trying to make small talk.

"Since I was about nine years old." I answer with a slight smile. I'm glad that we are actually talking instead of an awkward silence.

"Well, I have been playing since I was six!" He says with a cocky smirk.

"Really?" I say sarcastically. And I return a smirk of my own.

"I'm sorry if this is a mean thing to say but, why is Drew such a douche?"

"Well...... Um...... I don't think he would want me to answer that." Keaton exclaims in a more serious tone, ending that conversation.

"Ok......" I say. Then there is a LONG stretch of awkward silence.

I notice that my shoe is untied. Should I stop and tie it or should I just ignore it?

It doesn't bother me right now, so I'm just going to ignore it.

"Do you want to race to that bus station?" Keaton asks with his smile returning, as he breaks the silence.

"Sure!" I exclaim.

"Ready...... Set...... GO!"

We sprint all the way to the bus station. I'm in the lead. I decide to look back and see how far behind Keaton is. That was a BIG mistake!

I see that he is gaining on me. But then, I trip on my shoelaces, and just barely do face plant on the concrete.

Well that was embarrassing! I look up. Keaton has his hand reached out, and I grab it. He pulls me up to my feet.

I guess he doesn't know that he's still holding onto my hand. We finally reach the bus station, and I look down at our intertwined fingers.

Keaton follows my gaze, and he quickly jerks his hand away, and his face turns a dark shade of pink.

"Hey guys!" Someone shout from behind us. Keaton and I turn around and see Drew walking closer to us.

When he gets close enough, his face goes pale. "Why is she here?" Drew asks in a low tone.

He doesn't seem very excited that I'm here with Keaton.

"I texted Imara, I told her to meet us here. I hope that she didn't see what I just saw." Drew says turning away from me.

"Keaty baby!!" A female voice yells running up to Keaton. He turns towards her, and gives her a big hug.

She looks very familiar.......... I think that she was sitting at a table with my sister during lunch.

Imara gets even closer to Keaton, and kisses him.

First I thought that she was like his sister, or even his friend. But, turns out, she's his girlfriend!

I scoot closer to Drew, so that she wouldn't be able to tell that I was with Keaton.

"So, who are you?" She asks turning her attention to me.

"I'm..... Chloe." I reply with a small smile.

"Oh, are you Drew's new girlfriend!?" She asks perkily.

"Oh hell no!" I shout stepping away from Drew. Drew and I exchange disgusted glances.

He is quite attractive, with his hazel eyes, and perfect jawline, but he's a TOTAL jack ass!!!

"Wait.... You thought..... We were...... Are you fucking retarded!?" Drew stutters lividly, he also starts sarcastically laughing.

"I mean, look at her!" Drew says again staring disgustedly at me.

That earns him a punch in the stomach, which doesn't effect him. He has like a rock solid stomach!

Since that didn't work, I decide to kick him in the balls. "Ouch! What the fuck was that for!?" He shouts quite pissed.

I just turn away and walk off. Then I feel everyone's eyes on me, so I decide to flip them off.
