Mr. Owens spoke before letting us out minutes before the bell rang.

"Lucky you guys have nice partners! But me... Ugh just look at him he's so weird, dumb and gross.!" Raquel says pointing at mark.

"Yes please.!" I say as he closes his locker and we start walking towards the exit

"I really need a car.!" I tell him

"Do you know how to drive?" He ask me opening the door for me.

"Thanks!" I smiled "actually I do. Steve my stepdad gave me some lesson but my mom doesn't want me to drive yet." I say rolling my eyes thinking about her.

"Oh well... That's.... Ah.. Nice?" He says opening the car door for me.

"Not really.." I say getting in his car. He walks around the car getting into the drivers seat. I watch as a car parks right beside us. It was Harry. He put his window down. I did the same.

"Hey Liz!" Tells me looking at nick.

"Hey." I say with a smile but he kept looking at nick.

"What's up Harry?" Nick finally says starting the car. He didn't say anything just raised his head.

"Liz I can take..."

"No. Nick and I have a project due next week and we got to work on it. So see ya" I tell him as I roll my window up ignoring him.

"He keeps bothering you?" Nick asks breaking the silent on the car

"No. He doesn't bother me"

"You sure?" He asks

"Here right?" He asks breaking my thoughts

"Yeah." I say as he parks an opens the door for me.

"Thanks"

We go inside the house.

"C'mon in." I say
