[Next day, 1:30 pm]

I thought about me & Ty’s talk last night, and decided to “give him a chance”. But i see him in the halls, and try to avoid making eye contact. I have bio next, and its the last class, so we’ll probably talk then. But before i go there, i need to dump my shit in my locker, and get my bio stuff. I havent been to my locker yet, so my bag is droopin & shit. When i opened my locker, there was a bouqet of flowers, and another note. I took the note, and read it, already smiling. It said: “Laneya... Im so sorry i kissed you. It was stupid, and i shouldve asked you first. Please accept my apology, and yeah, lets forget i did that. Oh, and good morning beautiful :) - Chresanto”. How is he even gettin into my locker to put them in? I gotta ask... But he’s too sweet. i cant stay mad at him. I swapped out my books, and headed to class before the late bell rang. When i got in, i expected to see Chresanto sitting in his usual seat next to me, but he wasnt there. He wasnt in class at all. Suspicion automatically rose, and i assumed he was fucking that girl again. I let out a sigh, and began taking 2 column notes. Thats what we mainly do in here. Take 2 column notes, and do labs. I put the headphones to the ipod that Ty gave me yesterday. He said it was Kia’s. I knew it was, because when i turned it on, all her 90’s music was on it. And he put more on there for me. Jagged Edge was playin through the buds as i wrote down the key terms. 15 minutes later, i felt a tap on my elbow. I rolled my eyes & looked to my left. There was Chresanto, mouthing words. I couldnt hear him, so i yanked out one earbud

Laneya: What?

Chresanto: Sorry for touching you... But sorry i wasnt here on time

Laneya: You act like we had a date or somethin.. Was you too caught up in your intimate session?

Chresanto: No, i was in the principal’s office cause i got kicked out of the last class.

Laneya: So it took you 15 minutes?

Chresanto: Yeah, she kept givin me a speech, and said if i get kicked out one more time from that class then im suspended. If you dont believe me, go ask Ms. Ross. She knows. I swear i wasnt havin sex.

Laneya: Oh.

Chresanto: So how was your day so far?

Laneya: Boring.

Chresanto: What about lunch?

Laneya: Boring. I go to the library.

Chresanto: Why?

Laneya: Who am i gonna sit with? Them wierd ass kids?

Chresanto: Come sit with me tomorrow.

Laneya: No thanks... Your friends look like assholes

Chresanto: You said “look”. How about you get to know?

i sighed

Laneya: Maybe. Now do your work

Chresanto: I’ll do it later. I wanna talk to you

Laneya: Why? Arent i coming to your house after?

Chresanto: True... But first i gotta drop off my friends & cousin... You down for the ride?

Laneya: Yeah

Chresanto: You have soft skin..

I smiled kinda, and looked at him

Laneya: You’re wierd... But in a funny way

Chresanto: You’re cheeky... But in a good way

Laneya: How is being cheeky good?

Chresanto: Well, it kinda isnt... But you make it seem good. Well to me, that is.
