Chapter 5-Why You?
"Okay class. Please take your seats." Luckily, Maria, Avery, Phoebe and I are all in the same class for Social Studies. We all sit next to each other too. Me in the middle between the two. Our teacher, Mr. Moore, gives us all a warm smile. He's one of the nicest and youngest teachers here. He's 22, so some girls attempt to flirt with him, which is just plain gross. But I sorta understand why. He has short brown floppy hair and blue eyes. He's lean and fit and has a great personality.
We all take our seats and bthe chattering dies down. He carries on.
"Today, I will be handing you out an assignment. You will be partnered up with someone in pairs. But don't get caught up on it too quickly. I have chosen the pairs." Everyone lets out a groan.
"First of all, here is your assignment. Since this semesters main focus has been on the Power of Us. What we can accomplish in the form of independence and curiosity. So, your assignment is to find out as much as about your partner in 2 months. That should be plenty of time. Any questions before I call out the pairs?" A girl in the front row, Carrie, raises her hand. "Yes?" He points to her.
"Can we change our partners if we want to?" She asks in her usual small voice.
"No. You can't. It's not fair to work on the project with a person for half the time, and work with another the other half. So no." I lets out a small sigh, sinking deeper into her desk.
"So, the pairs are..." I listen carefully for my name to call out. But my friends names come before mine.
"Maria and Jacob. Avery and Trenton. Phoebe and Chase. Aubrie and Ashton.."
"Aubrie and who!?" I interrupt, my hand making a loud smacking noise on the table.
"Aubrie and Ashton.." He says slowly as if I'm misunderstood him. I wish I did. I hear annoyed grunts from the girls.
"No no no no no...I can't be with him!" I whine, pointing to Ash at the back of the room. Wait. Did I just call him Ash?!? I give my head a small shake.
"No! You can't be with him!" Hisses Rachel. I roll my eyes.
"Sorry. Can't change." He says, and I frown. Your officially not my favorite teacher any more Mr. Moore. I slump deeper into the chair as he finishes reading out the rest of the pairs.
"You will have 2 months to finish this project. If you don't hand it in on the last day, you will get detention. Got that?" He instructs and everyone nods. "Good. We have a few minutes left so start chattering away." I stay slumped in my seat as everyone starts moving around.
"This sucks." I grumble.
"Oh cheer up." Phoebe says.
"Yeah. I'm with Jacob! I can't stand him either!" Maria says, running a hand through her hair.
"And I'm with Trenton! He's a pain!" Avery says, but there's an edge in her voice. Hmhm. I'm sure he's a pain Avery.
"And I'm with Chase!" Phoebe shrieks out. Guess we all got unlucky.
"This sucks." I repeat.
"Couldn't agree more." I turn to see Ashton smirking down at me.
"What'd you want?" I hiss, more harsher than intended.
