As I sat down I could see all the girls in the room give me a cold stare it was really weird. "She thinks she's so perfect but she doesn't have a chance with Xavier", I heard a girl whisper to a girl I know, Lilly. She laughed, " it isn't like he's making goo goo eyes at you so don't even try", she said still laughing. "Ugh whatever", she said and started pouting. I just copied my notes and I didn't realize that Xavier didn't say anything to me we seemed to have a good conversation on the bus so what's up with him? "Xavier", I whispered. He smirked, "I was waiting on you to talk to me", he said half smiling. Ugh he was hot! Wait...did I just think he was hot? No I need to just calm myself I need to get into a good college and have kids and get married to a doctor and live a happy life I didn't want a bad boy getting in the way of that. I just smiled at him. "Um why are these girls um staring at me", I whispered to Xavier. I looked at this one girl who seemed to be staring at me every 10 seconds then go back gossiping to her friend."oh did I mention I'm a chick magnet", he said and laughed. I just rolled my eyes. I could see Serena wasn't very interested with that guy who was totally crushing on her but she just continued to smile,and when he wasn't looking she mouthed the words, HELP ME. I laughed. "Ok guys before you all leave you have a test tomorrow and I hope you actually study it's going to be worth a good bit of your grade so take my advice and study", he said. And about a minute after he announced that the bell rung and I was headed out the door. Then someone stopped me at my locker. It was Xavier. "Hey mama I want to know if you want to ride my motorcycle tomorrow to school it will be fixed by then", he said. I thought about it for a bit but i agreed. "Cool so here is my number um you can text me your address so I can pick you up", he said. "Ok", I said and quickly gave him my number and went to my next class. I then realized what I did I just accepted a date from the guy I have been dreading. It's only been a few days at school what was I thinking? But oh well I already made my decision and it technically wasn't really a date it was just a guy taking me to school not a date to the movies or anything so I shouldn't be worried...


The day moved my pretty fast and I met up with Katie, Serena, and Naomi. "Hey girls hey", I said "hey", they all said." "So what's up with you", Serena asked me. "Well nothing special but I'm not going to be riding with you tomorrow morning", I said. "Aww but why DO YOU HAVE OTHER FRIENDS!", Naomi playfully shouted. "Well yes I do have other friends I'm not a complete loner but Xavier is taking me to school on his motorcycle", I teased. "WHATT", Naomi and the other girls' mouths dropped down to the ground almost. "Omggg", Katie and Serena chirped in excitment. "Well tell us all about it when you get to school", Naomi said. "Gotcha I will but it's not a date I'm still not interested in him lets just say he's being friendly which is always a surprise", I muttered the last part. "Oh right your going to be "friends" ok I gotcha", Katie teased. "Whatever", I said and rolled my eyes.

~ As soon as I got home I went to see my mom. I didn't really have trouble controlling my emotions at school but it was all thanks to Xavier. When I walked in the house my mom gave me a hug. "Are you still ok about everything?," she asked with concern in her eyes. I smiled, "I'll be fine mom it's just so sudden and shocking", I said. "Yeah it was shocking to me too but in the end I still have my baby girl", she said. "You will always have me mom", I said. "Good well I'll be cooking Meatloaf if that's okay", she said. "Yeah it's fine I'm just gonna go in my room", I said. "Ok", she said and I headed upstairs to my room. I didn't realize my room was a mess so I cleaned it. After I was done cleaning I got a text message. Oddly enough it was from Xavier.

Xavier- Hey I was just wondering if a good girl like you would do if a bad boy like me ask you to ride with me on my motorcycle right now.

Me- I'd say your crazy

Xavier- Oh really well I guess you don't have a choice

Me- what do y....

I was interrupted but a motorcycle engine roaring. And guess who was grinning devilishly on the motorcycle. Xavier!!! I just rolled my eyes. "What do you think your doing", I asked. He grinned," well Ms. Evans looks like you have no choice but to ride with me", he said and revved his engine again. "Hey hey stop making so much noise my mom with see you and she would forbid be ever to go outside especially with YOU" I said annoyed. "Ok well come take a ride mama", he said. "Ugh fine", I said. He smiled a crooked smile. I made my way downstairs. "Where are you going?", my mom asked me leaving me to hault in the middle of me walking out the door. "Oh um I'm just gonna go clear my head for a bit but I'll be back before dinner is done", I said. "Ok well have fun with whatever", she said. A part of me believes she is only letting me go because of the divorce but I don't really care anymore my dad is an asshole what else is new? I went outside and I saw Xavier being shady as ever looking like he was about to murder me which kinda scared me, a lot. "Hey mama", he said. I hate it when he calls me mama but I guess I'll have to get used to it. "Hey", I said. "I was thinking of grabbing something from my house so I guess you have to stick along", he said and gave me a helmet. I put it on it was kinda big for my head but I got on the motorcycle. "Heh aye grab on mama I won't bite", he said and I could tell he was smirking like he always does. I grabbed on to his waist which felt kinda....kinda....nice and so wrong at the same time. He took off on his motorcycle really fast which made me grab on his waist even tighter. He laughed. "Having trouble mama", he said still laughing. "Ha ha very funny this is really scary can you go a little slower before the cops pull us over", I said. "Ha I'm only going 60 miles per hour I'm good thank you", he said. I just rolled my eyes. We past green fields and farms along the way then we came to a little run down community called Townstone Houses and apartments. He started to slow down a bit and I could see little Mexican kids running in their yards and in the streets. "This is where you live?", I asked. "Yeah...", he said. We came to a stop at a cute little house and I could see kids running across the yard. "This is my house those are the neighborhood kids", he said. One of the kids came running to Xavier. "Eh Xavier want to play football with us?", the little boy asked. "Not to today", he said. Then he said something to what I believe is Spanish, "Tengo una cita con ella pero ella no lo sabe", Xavier said. The kid laughed and said something in Spanish, " divertirse Xavier", he said in Spanish and went to play with his other friends. "Um I wasn't paying attention in my Spanish class so what did you guys say", I asked. He laughed "oh nothing. "So what is your race", I asked. "Well I'm Mexican Italian American and I have a bit of Indian in me", he said. "That's really cool I'm just a regular white girl", I said. He laughed. "This is my house follow me. I followed him into his house which was very lovely inside. "This is my mother", he said as we went inside to find a woman cooking. "Oh mi bebe' que es tan bueno verte Xavier", she said giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Hey Mama' this is...my friend Christine", he said. "Hi it is so lovely to meet you between you and me Xavier brings no girls into this house such a shame really", she said laughing. I laughed too. "It's nice to meet you too Mrs. Rogers", I said. "No need for formal names just call me Valentina", she said. I smiled. " I have to grab another helmet I'll be right back", Xavier said. "So Valentina does Xavier have any brothers or sisters he doesn't really talk about his personal life", I asked. "Well a few years ago he lost his brother to one of the gangs Xavier was mostly a good child he never wanted to mix with the gangs but his brother on the other hand was in the gangs and we lost him it was very hard for Xavier they were close his name was Alejandro and he has a sister who is 13 her name is Isabella", she said. "I'm sorry for your lose", I said. She smiled. "You are a good girl a good influence in Xavier I can tell otherwise he wouldn't have brought you here", she said. "Xavier does get into trouble but he thinks he's doing it for his brother which we all know it's just the way Xavier handles greiving", she said. "Xavier is a good guy but he doesn't want to be I recently started taking notice in that", I said. "Yes that is Xavier for you always has been a bad boy but inside he will come to his senses, one day", she said. A few minutes later Xavier came out of his room with his helmet. "Sorry to took long couldn't find this bad boy, Cristine ready for a ride?," he asked me with a smirk. I guess I was ready...
