I'll hold you close (Axl Heck x reader)

Chapter 3

Now, can I have volunteers, any volunteers, to complete these math problems, up here on the board? The math teacher asked. Silence filled the classroom as everyone sat quietly in their seats. This is a real shame, if you ask me. She said, disappointed. In order for you all to make it somewhere in life, it has to start now. She picked up a blue marker, and completed the questions. Does anyone have any questions? She asked. A boy named Paul raised his hands. Yes, dear? The math teacher asked, with a little excitement in her voice and eyes. What time does the bell ring? Paul asked. The math teacher shook her head and sat down. Teenagers. She murmured.
   About 20 minutes later, the bell rang only leaving one more class to go. History. You sighed as you took out your history books. It wasn't that you just weren't good at it. It was just that it seemed like a VERY long day. Thank goodness, only one more subject. You sighed. You walked down the hall to the history class, sitting in the middle of the classroom. The history teacher closed the door, and started the lesson. Now, I know this is the first day of school and all, but please don't get disappointed when I say you have a- The teacher was then interrupted by a knock on the door. He opened it and was greeted by Axl, who had a innocent smile on his face. Mr. Heck, why are you late? The history teacher asked. Well my math teacher wanted to talk to me about participating more in class and how my grades need to try and skyrocket more often. Axl explained. I certainly agree with Mrs. Sophora. You do need to work on your grades more often, Heck. Now please take your seat, and try not to make a fool out of yourself or better yet, anyone else. Do you understand, Heck? The history teacher asked. Yes, sir. Axl answered. He took a seat next to you. As I was saying, next week, you all will be starting a project based on the Revolutionary War. Groans came from around the classroom. But, instead of using a poster board and working by yourselves, you will create a 3d model and work with a partner. How does that sound? Louder groans filled the class, meaning no one wanted to actually do any work. Except for you. You actually wanted to work on a 3d model instead of a boring poster board. C'mon guys! You said. It'll be fun! See, Y/N has the spirit! Besides this counts for three test grades. You could make an 100% or higher, and on your first report card, your grade could skyrocket. The teacher said, eying Axl. Once everyone heard three tests grades and 100%, the room was filled with cheerfulness and laughter. After 15 minutes, class was dismissed, which meant time to go home. You put your history books in your locker and walked out the school's door to your car. But then you realized you had a 35 minute drive back home, since you lived in another county. You groaned as you started your car, wondering how many stop lights and signs you could run to make it back in less than 15 minutes. You sighed as you pulled out the parking lot, heading on to the freeway.
