Chasing Blue

-FOUR-

-JJ's P.O.V-

This afternoon JJ had come up with a plan to ditch his friends after school and find Blue instead. After he left with blue yesterday they all pestered him about where he was and what he was doing. He (for ovious reasons) didn't feel the need to tell them about his little excursion with the blue haired hottie. That would be social suicide. Instead he thought to ignore Claire's constant pressuring and Brian's stupid "if you don't tell me I'll find out myself" threats.

His brown eyes bore into the clock on the wall desperately as it ticked painfully slowly. He has to get out early so that he can catch up to Blue. Three Minuets left JJ thought as he watched the clock with anticipation. "JJ, Seeing as you're paying so much attention why don't you come up and solve this problem," The pitchy but sarcastic voice of Mrs. Genkin made JJ's head snap away from the clock. His cheeks flushed bright red.

He hadn't a clue how to solve the maths equation But Mrs. Genkin was waiting expectedly and holding out the board pen. He gulped before standing up and heading over to the white board. He looked out at the class, although the majority of them were either talking to each other and not paying attention or sleeping, he still couldn't help being nervous.

JJ read over the question in his head multiple times, trying to make sense of it. "Come on, JJ, X-45x7(+18), It's not that hard," Mrs. Genkin said impatiently. He ignored her. Her voice was knocking his concentration.

Mrs. Genkin was growing more agitated. "right, no one can leave until JJ completes the question." JJ swore under his breath. She released a low grumble of intolerance from her paper thin, wrinkly lips.

He attempted to complete the question but naturally, he doesn't get it right. "No the answer is not 7, You pulled that out of your arse, try again," She tells him whilst rubbing out his previous answer with her hand.

The sound of the school bell rang. JJ panicked. The rest of the class began to get ready to leave but Mrs. Genkin put her hand out. "We are not going anywhere until JJ completes the question," She announced, Causing the class to groan. JJ was looking out the window at Blue who was strollingy by with his bag hanging carelessly on one shoulder and his Black glasses sitting perfectly on the bridge of his nose.

JJ had never been lucky enough to see Blue in his black thick framed glasses and admittedly, he'd be lying if he said it didn't turn him on a little. Blue was heading for the nearest staircase and JJ knew that he wouldn't be able to work out the answer and catch up with Blue in time, So he put the pen down and ran back to his desk hurriedly. He grabbed his bag and hastily mumbled a "sorry mrs," before charging out of the classroom. He blocked out the shrill of his teacher's voice vigorously bellowing at him to return to the class. JJ raced down the same set of stairs as Blue and caught up with him just in time. "Hey, Blue," JJ spoke with the little puff breath he had left.

Blue's eyes rolled in exasperation before he let out an over exaggerated sigh. "What do you want?" He asked, not even bothering the mask the irritation in his voice. JJ could tell that Blue was more than a little irked at his presence but he chose to ignore it.

"wanna walk home together again?" JJ was politer with Blue than most people but in fairness, he wasn't trying to impress most people.

"No," Blue's answer made JJ's mood sink but he played it off as if Blue was only joking.

"you're funny," He did a fake laugh. Blue wasn't amused though.

"And you're annoying," Blue stated, shutting JJ right up.

They walked in silence, not an awkward silence but a comfortable one. As they neared Blue's house JJ knew he'd have to act fast if he didn't want to leave Blue just yet. "Hey, Blue, Do you maybe want to go for a walk to the park or something?" JJ asked as they came to Blue's gate.
