"Ethan Dolan? How do you know?" I looped my hair around my finger
"Who else has a purple streak in their hair" she laughs
"Don't go near him, he plays the game almost every night"
My eyebrows raised and I hated him already.

"Alright class I've told you that this project will be worth 60% of your grade"
"So I hope I've picked the right partner for you to work with" the teacher explained
He then pinned up a list to the board
"Okay so here are you partners" he stepped back and everyone ran up.
Me and Johanna were last in the line
"I hope we are both partners" she smiled with her cute toothy smile
"Yeah" I grinned
So when it came to us Johanna went first
"Oh my god" she said scanning the paper
She slowly turned around "your with Grayson Dolan" she started to breath heavily
"So?" I asked, she pointed behind me, I turned my head and saw this guy
"Who are you?" I turned my body fully this time
"Uh your partner" he said like I didn't know
"Oh so this is Grayson yeah?" I crossed my arms
"Yes, and we need to work so..." he walked to his chair and patted the place next to him
I rolled my eyes and sat down at the seat
"So I was thinking that we could justify gravity from a- are you even listening?" I watched him lean back on his chair
"I don't feel like working, you can do everything" he closed his eyes resting
"You can't do that this is a paired project"
He opened one eye and leaned in close to my face as our noses touched
"Sue me" he whispered and leaned back into his position
I scoffed and rolled my eyes, writing down my ideas on bullet points instead of explaining them to Grayson because I know he wouldn't listen.

We had sport and getting changed with no one I really liked in my class was awkward.
I walked to the sports hall and there was boys sitting around the benches and I instantly thought that I walked in the wrong room
"Have we walked in the wrong place?" I asked this girl That was the only one I could stand.
"Well miss told us the sports hall" she responded
"Hey girls, yeah today we are playing volleyball with the boys, I hope you don't mind" she smiled
Yes I do asshole
"Oh and before you start, faith, your gonna wanna zip up your sweater, you never know what the boys could think" she embarrassed me
The boys laughed in the back as I zipped it up.
As we started to play, i was at the front directly opposite Ethan from the other side.
"Go" miss blew her whistle and one girl served the ball,
All of a sudden Ethan slammed it down purposely to hit me but luckily I dodged it.
Ethan high fived his friends proudly as he laughed
"You'll pay for that" I curled my fingers around the net saying to him
"You know the rules pretty girl, hands off the net" he said in his deep raspy voice as his warm fingers removed my hands from the net.
I rolled my eyes and backed away playing the game again
These brothers are the definition of annoying.
