I pull my shirt over my head quickly and slip on my grey sweatshirt, grabbing my shoes next.

"Hey do you have any perfume?" Ashley asks me, standing up. We had just finished PE, actually participating today. It was some capture the flag bullshit, which involved a lot of physical exertion.

"Yeah, it's in my bag." I nod, tossing the bag to her before standing up. I use it after her, then Ella grabs it from me. The second the bell rings, we're out of the locker rooms and then the school.

We laugh while climbing up the rock, joining the rest of our friends.

"So did you ever find out anything about the boys being at the party?" Jim asks, taking in a puff of smoke.

"Yeah, they snuck out through my bedroom window. Liz probably assumed they went to bed," I roll my eyes while laughing a bit at how stupid they are.

"Anything about suck and blow?" Beth pipes up.

"They asked about it, but it was just a game at a party. I wanna forget about it," I whine as my friends snicker.

"We should all hang out tomorrow after school," Ella smirks, all of us agreeing.

"Shit, we gotta go, the bell rings in three minutes," Jim says, making my eyes widen. I can't be late to English again.

We bolt through the woods, jumping over fallen trees and ducking under branches and quickly reaching the school, going up a set of back stairs.

30 seconds.

I have that long to make it to class. While I'm running through the hallway to make it to English, I pop a piece of gum into my mouth.

I can see the open classroom door, someone getting up to close it. I push myself to run faster, reaching the door and rushing in with five seconds to spare. Thank god for that back staircase being near the English wing.

I get to my seat in front of the boys, breathing heavily I swing my bag off my shoulder and onto the table.

"Emily?" The teacher calls my name, sounding bored. I raise my hand to catch the teachers eye, before reading what's on the board.

Test next class.
Use this time to study if you like.

What is says is that we don't have to study, which means I won't be. I'll study in my study hall tomorrow.

I feel Calum kicking my chair, trying to get my attention again. With a sigh, I look for my earbuds. But I guess I left them at home this morning.

"Emily," Calum whines loudly. Most of the class is being loud though, so nobody pays attention.

"Hey," Luke says sharply, reaching out for my shoulder.

"What?" I snap. God I miss my earbuds already.

"You seemed a little out of breath when you got here," Michael smirks a bit, making me roll my eyes.

"Didn't want to be late," I shrug, going to turn back around.

"We have five minutes between lunch and class, it takes less than two to get from the cafeteria to here." Ashton reminds.

"I was with my friends," I huff. "Are you done interrogating me now?" I narrow my eyes at them.

"How come you're never in the cafeteria?" Luke scoffs. Why do they even notice? I just shrug at him. "Where are you guys going?"

"If I tell you will you leave me alone?" They all nod. "We go out into the woods,"
