It takes two

Catching Up

Jada(Jay)

I just got to school and was on my way to my 3rd period. The second bell had already rung while I was on my way to class. As I'm walking Leah bumped into me, surprisingly she didn't say anything. She smirked at me and kept walking. I honestly expected for her to start barking at me.

"Hey sorry to bother you but I'm new here, I'm a freshman. Do you happen to know where room 125 is?" This girl asked walking up to me. By now the last bell had rung and we were now late for class. Just great.

I showed her where room 125 was and decided to go to the bathroom since I'm already late.

I finished checking my self in the mirror and made my way to class.

"Young lady where are you suppose to be?" A deep voice asked coming from behind me.

I turned around and it was Mr. Owens, our school principal. My timing could not have been any better.

"Heyy youu....." I said forming a smile on my face.

"I asked you a question" he said sternly.

"Mr. Owens, I was just on my way to class"

"So you thought that you could skip and not go to class until you got caught or felt like it" He said walking up to me.

"Woah, no sir I was on my way to class the whole time. School just started" I said defending my dear self.

"The bell rung minutes ago where have you been other than in class"

"I was helping a freshman find her class, then decided to use the bathroom"

"Mhmm..... I'll let you off this one time. You better not let this happen again or you're in big trouble now get to class. He said seriously. This dude doesn't even know me.

"Okay thank you" I continued walking to my class.

I finally got there and it was really quiet. Everybody was reading in their text books.

"Ms. Wilson where have you been class started 10 minutes ago" my teacher said not looking up from her computer. How tf she know it was me. I could've been the janitor.

"I can explain"

"Explain" she said simply

"I had to help a freshman find her class and then went to the bathroom" I quickly said.

"Don't let it happen again. Go to your seat and read the board so you'll know what to do or ask somebody for assistance, but no talking" I nodded and went to my seat.

I was in my last period now checking my emails for my college financial aid. We had 10 minutes left in this class and I finished all of my work. I was listening to PND Come and see me playing on my Pandora. I went up to the front of the class room to get the pass so I could go to my locker. Since I have a test coming up for US Ap History I need to get my notes so I could study. I got all my bag and stuff then left class and went to my locker on the first floor.

As I'm walking I felt somebody come behind me and wrapped their arms around my waist. Now look, you know damn well not to come up on people like that. That's how you get hurt. I jumped and was ready to punch who ever it was behind me until I heard a familiar voice.

"Damn sorry girl, I didn't mean to scare you" Brandon said laughing

"Boy that's not funny. I could've sucka punched your ass" I kept walking to my locker.

"Your right about that. I can tell by the way you quickly put your set up, Ready to knock my ass out"

"Whatever" I laughed
