Ill be the fire that will catch you(Tony Perry/ Jaime Preciado fanfiction)

Chapter 19

Tony was still sleeping when I left to the hospital. I wanted him to be fully sober when we had a nice long chat so I could ask him a few questions.

***

After spending about 4 hour with Alex at the hospital, who slept the whole time, I went to the house to get ready since my interview was at 3:30. When I went upstairs Tony was STILL sleeping so I was careful to be quiet

I decided to cover up as best as I could, so I put on some of my nicer black skinny jeans and a black long sleeve. It was a bit cold out so I slipped on some black high heeled boots. I put my hair up in a nice clean cut bun and admired my self in the mirror. The only part that i had tattoos on my body that were showing was on my neck. I was about to get leaving but then I remembered about my piercings so I took them out. I looked different without my septum, dimple, & ear piercings in...

I smiled, happy with how I looked and headed out the door. It was 3:22 by then. I rushed to the school and right away I saw two teens smoking to the right of the building. It was still 3:28 so I had a little time. I rushed over to them only to find out it was blade and the boy.

"Oh hey look Andrew, it's Aj."

His name was Andrew... It fit him.

Blade took a puff of her cigarette and smiled slyly. She reminded me of Mike with the whole smoking thing. I had always been against him doing it, since my father had died of lung cancer when I was about 8. It's been 16 years and I still miss him like hell.

Andrew threw his on the ground and stomped on it.

I smacked the cigarette out of Blades hand

"What the hell?!"

"You could die of lung cancer if you get addicted or something."

"So, we all die in the end anyways."

She smirked and I frowned.

I grew quiet for a minuet.

"True.. But it better you die of old age than of lung cancer."

She sighed "why do you care anyways?"

"I just do."

"Whatever." She grabbed Andrews wrist and pulled him away. He just sighed and went along with it.

I looked at my phone watch.

It read 3:33. Oops. I ran to the front office, being careful that I didn't trip.

When I went through the doors I saw Mr. Medina at his desk, he was talking on the phone. He looked up and smiled, & held his finger up, indicating for me to wait. I just nodded with a smile and sat in a black chair In front of him.

He hung up and looked at me, he extended his hand for me to shake it. So I did.

"Hello Ms. Rodriguez it's nice to have you here."

I smiled "well, it's nice to be here."

"Yes well it surprises me you want to work here since there are higher class schools else where.."

"Well I grew up in this neighbor hood and came to this high school. So I decided to come home."

I smiled again and he chuckled.

" okay well we should get started. "

He asked me where I worked before, if I had any gang related tattoos, and a few other questions such as my time schedule and what I expected from the school.

In the end I thought it went pretty well. He told me that if I got the job then I would only be starting off teaching two or three classes just to see if it went well, I was okay with it though. Teaching was a lot of work. And I was pretty nervous to be honest. When I left the school I went to go get something at Taco Bell, my favorite fast food place. I smiled to my self. I haven't had a taco from Taco Bell in forever man.
