Blake's P.O.V

I woke up to the sound of the blender whirring away and I got pissed off. I seriously needed that sleep because I just changed school and today because of my father I had to go to Hailey's school and 'spy' on her.So that once her father fucks up, I can bring her to dad.

Now that I think about it, humans are actually terrifying animals. Whether you know them or not, they will do the unexpected and that unexpected things will often be horrible things and for dad's case, he is this way because of a rough childhood and being a mafia boss. He expects me to be like him one day and honestly, I don't really think that is a bad idea.

I dragged myself out of bed and brushed my teeth. I grabbed a black v-neck shirt and wore a leather jacket with jeans. I then went downstairs to have my 'breakfast'. I went to the fridge and chugged down two cans of red bull.

"Morning darling."

I grunted in response. My step- mom was making her breakfast smoothie and I always hated that shit.

"Not having breakfast?"

"No."

"Okay then. Have fun in school dear."

"Yeah whatever." I grumbled totally not feeling the sunshines and rainbows of the morning. I can already tell that this was going to be a long day.

-School-

I got off my motorbike and met up with Jake, Chase, Alex and Bradley.

"Whats up man." They greeted while doing the handshake.

"Hey." We walked into school with me leading the pack when I stopped dead cold in my tracks. There she is. My boys immediately becomes defensive. So does she and her group. Honestly right now, if you told me that she was the leader of the worst gang around here, I would've laughed my ass off. We both just stood there and I really took this time to check her out. Dude, honestly she is fine as hell so if you're straight teenage boy like me you would do the same.

She didn't even have to do anything to be beautiful, she wasn't wearing anything extraordinary today, she was just wearing some white ripped jeans and a crop top.

I just stared at her until she was done checking me out and that's when she realized that I know she was checking me out so I smirked at her resulting to her giving me the finger. What a polite young lady. (Note the sarcasm.) She stalked off to her class with her gang behind.

"I'm going to the office." I told the guys and they nodded.

They have been here for quite some time and I was still in a different school so it was kinda unfair for me but then again since when did dad cared about anything in my life? I walked over to the office and was met with a middle aged women sitting behind her desk.

"You must be Blake."

"Yes I am Mrs....?"

"Mrs. Jones." She politely introduced.

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Jones." I shook her hand firmly and she just nods as she rummage her drawers for a slip of paper.

"Here's your schedule for today and there will be a tutor for you so you can catch up just fine. I mean, it is in the middle of the school term so I have no choice but to have a tutor for you. There will also be a tour around the school and-" Hailey walks through the doors at this moment.

"And there she is. The miracle worker. She will be your tour guide and your tutor for this semester."

"Huh? What?" Hailey asked dumbly.

"You're Blake's tour guide for today and tutor for the rest of the year."

"Oh hell nah."

"Miss. Jones, You and I both know that I don't take no for an answer so now I want you to-"

"MOM! I said I'm not doing it! Dad will never agree to this shit either." Well shit. I didn't know that Hailey was her daughter.

"Hailey, mind you're language and dad doesn't need to know about this."

"Make me mom. Change my mind because I'll definitely will not be tutoring HIM."

"Woah come on now Hailey. I though we were buddies. You don't have to be so mean." I joked and her eyes widened.

"I suggest you shut up Miller. I'm pissed off as it is." She faced me and turned back to Mrs. Jones.

"For the last time, I won't tutor him."

"I'll buy you a Ferrari. The white one that you always wanted."

"Dad already got me that yesterday and no bribery in the world would make me change my mind." What the fuck? Bribery and I like it. I wish dad bribed me more. All he ever bribed me with is a Rolex and that was just to shut me up.

"What do you want Hailey?" She sighs exasperatedly.

"I want a mother. That comes home on time, that brings me out to go shopping and talk about boys like we are little teenage girls. I want a mother that cooks for me. I want a mother to be there for me when I am feeling down and bakes me cookies whenever I want." She said with her face void of emotion like she said this more than once.

"I promise you Hail. I promise you that I'll be better towards you. I promise to do all of those things with you. I promise to become a mother. Your mother." I can tell she is on the verge of crying because of how shaky her voice sounds.

"Bullshit." Hailey spat, shaking her head.

Hailey exited the room and I shot a dirty look at Hailey's mom then exited the office.

I saw Hailey walking down the empty corridor while hugging herself.

"Hailey!" I called out to her but she just continued walking in fact, she walked faster than before.

I shrugged. I don't care.

I turned around and exited school. Why was I even here in the first place.
