I'm sorry if all the details aren't right, I mean it has been four months since i updated

Jessica's POV: I woke up and quickly got dressed then ran down stairs. I don't know why I was in such a rush I just felt like getting to school early.

"Slow down and eat breakfast" My mom told me.

"I wanna walk to school with Johnnie"

"You have to eat"

"I'll eat a cookie" I said as I took one from the bin.

I raced out the door and quickly walked Half way to Johnnie's house. Yup three miles...just kidding I rode my skate board. I felt my phone buzz and I took it out of my pocket.

J: Hey I'm at your house, where are you?
M: I'm half way to your house
J: Wait there I'll come pick you up

I put my phone back in my pocket and sat down on my skate board and waited. He pulled up beside me and I got in then he drove off.

"Why did you come all the way over here?" He asked me.

"I wanted to walk to school with you"

"But I don't walk, Jess I live ten miles away from the school"

"I guess it would have been a long walk" I said laughing.

I hadn't really been thinking when I thought about wanting to walk with him. After all I was about to skate six miles to his house.

"For now on I'll pick you up every morning okay?"

"Okay" I responded.

"I have a algebra test today" I told him sighing.

"You'll be fine, you did good on the homework"

"You don't understand..."

"What don't I don't understand?"

"I guess when I set them up into the inequality"

"Why didn't you tell me, I could of helped"

"I didn't want to feel stupid" I told him.

"Jess you aren't stupid, everyone has trouble with some subjects"

"You said this was easy. You said that this is one of the easiest topics and I just feel so stupid"

"You weren't there when you learned it so it's a different situation"

"No it's not, I know I'm stupid"

"Calm down Jess"

I closed my eyes the rest of the ride just to rest a little and then we pulled up to the school.

"I'll take you home too"

I grabbed my bag and rushed into the school. I went straight to my locker and shoved everything in then I just went into the bathroom. I laid against the wall of the handicap stall and I just cried. Why does school have to be so stressful? I listened as the warning bell rang and I continued to sit there. Next I listened as the bell went off signaling that I'm late and I continued to sit there. At this point I don't care if I get in trouble or not. I know this is a stupid reason to be freaking out and everything but still. I stood up and started walking to the office because my teacher wasn't going to let me into the class unless I had a late pass. That's how the rules work anyways.

"I need a pass" I said to the secretary.

"Why are you late?" She questioned me.

"Take a guess" I said pointing to my face.

She dialed a number on her phone and I didn't listen because I had zoned out and the next thing I know our school therapist was beside me.

"No I'm fine seriously, I just need to go back to class"

"Come on Jessica, let's talk about it"

"No" I said walking out of the office.

I went back into the bathroom and sighed. I don't know what I'm going to do now, I guess just wait for my next class to start. I pulled out my phone and checked my notifications and saw that Johnnie was texting me.

J: Are you okay?
M: Just stressed
J: Are you in class?
M: No I was late and they won't give me a pass
J: Make sure you get to your next class
M: I will

He stopped texting and I put my phone back into my pocket and closed my eyes once again. I knew the bell would wake me up when it went off anyways.

After school

I got into Johnnie's car and he grabbed my hand.

"We're going to work on your algebra okay?"

"Okay" I responded.

He pulled out of the school parking lot and drove me back to my house and I got out.

"I'll be back in about thirty minutes, I need to do I bit of chores first"

He waited to pull out until I walked in and then I dropped my stuff on the floor and went up to my room. I didn't have any homework for tonight because it's a Friday and everything thank the lord. I laid my phone down on my night stand and went to bed once again until Johnnie got here.

"Wake up" Johnnie said shaking me.

"Your mom let me in" He told me and I sat up.

"Sorry I've been really tired lately"

"Don't be sorry, now let's get this done"

I saw that he had brought my bag up from downstairs and he grabbed a notebook out of it along with a pencil.

Is that good for the first time in awhile?
