Dragged In

Chapter 2

BEEP.BEEP.BEEP.BEEP. My alarm clock. I groan and roll over to look at the time. 6:00am. Fuck college, I'm not going I'm to tired. I roll back over and fall back asleep.

"JO GET YOUR LAZY ASS OUT OF BED!" I hear a familiar voice call. What a soothing way to be woken up.

"Fuck off Cory I'm not going" I reply groggily, shoving my head under my pillow. In case you haven't guessed already, I'm not a morning person.

"Why not?" He asked

"I'm to tired" I whine

"Ughhh Jo, c'mon you have to!"

"No I don't! You always do it!"

I hear him sigh in defeat.

"How about you just show up, and then the four of us will ditch?" He asked.

"That sounds alright" I say sheepishly

"Now get the fuck out of my room so I can get dressed you dork" I continue.

"Ahh,that's the Jo I know and love" he smirks "Ill gladly leave your room,weirdo" before exiting . God I love him. Just as a friend! Get any other ideas you may have out of your head!

I slowly get out of bed and go over to my closet,and picking out jeans, a white tank top and a red hollister hoodie. I don't wear any makeup, it's a waste of time and money and nobody needs it! I grab by backpack and put my laptop,headphones and some money into it. I put on my red converse and walk out into the kitchen to find the rest of the boys chatting among themselves.I greet them with insults and they do the same back. I smile to myself. Thats just how me communicate.

I throw my bag down onto the floor and grab some cereal. I eat it quickly and dump the bowl in the sink.

"You're driving" I say flatly to Tyler and throw him the keys and he catches with ease.

"Alright, lets go" he said and we walk out of the apartment, and into the lift. We live on the 15th floor, so as you can guess, it quicker in the lift.

We walk out into the parking lot and we hop into his range rover. I ride shotgun, because I'm just that awesome. It's only a 5 minute drive,and we spend it sing/screaming the lyrics to Stay With Me by The Faces. We arrive and we all jump out.

"Later losers" I say and I go to my class and sit down.

"Good morning class...." Ms Stuart started but I had already zoned out and was looking out the window. After 5 minutes I felt my phone buzz from my pocket. I slyly take it out and see its from Chris. It read:

"Meet us in the usual spot in the park in 10 minutes ;)"

I nodded to myself and put my phone away. I heard my teacher clear her throat annoyingly and my head shot up. She's looking at me crossed armed and an eyebrow raised. Put your sassy-pants away, Ms Stuart.

"Yes?" I question.

"I'm sorry, Josephine, is my class boring you" She said. She did not just call me Josephine. I hear a few people snicker at the mention of my full name but I give them a quick glare and they immediately shut up. Smart choice.

"Um-I have to go the bathroom" I say getting up. She rolls her eyes and turns back to the board,allowing me to grab my bag and run out of the classroom. I receive a pat on the back by someone because they realise I will not be returning. I don't turn back to see who it was and just kept walking for the door,slamming the door particularly loud on purpose, just to annoy her.

I begin to slowly make my way to the park, since I have 10 minutes and I could see the park from here, that's how short of a walk it was. I walk into the Starbucks and buy a Caramel latte.

I arrive at the park, to see Tyler is already there. I walk over to him.

"You're early, nerd" I say

"I could say the same thing about you"

"Touché"

We chat amongst ourselves and then Chris and Cory walk up to is together.

They begin talking about something, but I'm not listening. I'm looking at a group of boys that are across they width of the park. That's weird. This is our secret place, we stumbled upon it accidentally before. Nobody's ever been in this part of the park except the four of us. I brush it off and lie down and my back and close my eyes.
