Eleven • Diablo
"Why aren't you touching your food?" Lola asked taking a bite of her lunch.
"The cafeteria food is disgusting. I don't even know how you're alive after the first bite." I say disgusted. The cafeteria food is gross. One time a freshman found a toenail in his Burger's patty. Yes a toe nail. And once my Math Teacher told me to get his water from the cafeteria kitchen and I saw a dead rat. A fucking dead rat.
"Suit yourself." Lola says grabbing my plate of spaghetti,
A few minutes later everyone's eyes were going back and forth from me and something behind me. I glanced back and saw JT.
"A pretty lady like you should eat. And by the way is this seat taken?" He asked and Lola's jaw dropped, tiny pieces of noddles dropping out of her mouth.
Disgusting.
"No, it isn't." I gave him a small closed smile and he sat down.
"Why aren't you eating?"
"Same thing for you."
"I asked you first."
"I asked second." I said and heard him sign.
"You are one heck of a girl you know that?"
"I've been told."
"So tell me why you aren't eating."
"Well one because the cafeteria food is made out of rat-" I heard Lola spit her food out, "- and two everyone's staring." I say pointing to everyone.
I saw him glance behind him and people dodging his eyes.
"Well, come with me let's eat at a Cafe." He says taking my hand.
"Are you sure you're okay here alone?" I ask Lola.
"Yeah. I lost my appetite anyways. Have fun."
JT pulled me out the building faster than I could blink.
"Heck to the no. I am not riding that diablo." I say pointing at his Black motorcycle.
"C'mon." He says getting on.
I got on his bike scared of my life.
"Here put this one." JT hands me a helmet.
"What about you?" I ask.
"It's fine tink. Put it on." He says and starts the engine making it roar.
I quickly put it on scared that he'll take off right away. I wrap my arms around him and let me say, his stomach is like steel.
And then we took off. Scared that I'll fall, I hugged him tighter which made him laugh.
"Don't worry Mia I won't let you fall for me"

"Thank you." I smiled at the waiter who brought us our food.
"So tell me more about you that I don't know." JT said.
"Um what do you want to know?" I say taking a sip of my Thai Tea Boba (any boba lovers?).
