Love me on the court

Chapter 2

Emily

I knock on Kylie's door and she opens it with an angry look on her face. "You're late," she says as she pushes past me. "I'm sorry but I was held up at the park," I say smiling. "Why are you smiling?" she asks, "it's the first day of school, nobody should be happy about it." Yes, it was the first day of 12th grade, finally seniors and done with highschool when we graduate but, my encounter at the park made this day not so horrible. "Wouldn't you like to know," I say smiling because I knew it would bug the crap out of Kylie. "Yes! That's why I asked you. Just tell me!" she begs. "I, met someone," I say. "Ooooo is he cute?" She says playfully, catching on to my game. " I didn't say it was a boy, I say grinning. "Well you wouldn't be smiling like that if it wasn't a boy," Kylie said "so who is he? Is he cute? Emily come on tell me, please. "Okay okay, I say as we walk into the school. "He is extremely cute" I say when the bell rings. "Oh my gosh you can't do this to me! I want to know everything at lunch," she whines as we split and head to our first periods. I head to room 30, my science class. I find it and walk in to find there is one table left. I sit down in one of the two chairs when Jasen walks in and sits next to me. "Glad to run into you again," he says as he grins at me. I was speechless and all I could do was smile. 'Ring, ring, ring'. Talk about saved by the bell. "Hello everyone. I'm your science teacher Mr. Jones," Mr. Jones said, "We are going to start class by taking roll." He starts taking roll and eventually gets to my name. "Emily Stevens," He says. "Here," I say Stevens," Jasen says "Emily Stevens that's a nice name. I blush and looked over at him. "Jasen Wood," Mr.Jones calls out. "Here," Jasen says. I hear a few girls sigh. "Jasen, I say mocking him "Jasen wood that's a nice name," He grins and says, "You're cute when you mock me." I blush and look up at him. "Touché" I say. "So, were you playing basketball when I got hit in the head?" "Ya" he replied "and sorry about that, the hitting you in the head and all." I reply "it's fine, I'm alright, so are you going to try out for the basketball team?" "Ya, I'm really excited for it," He said. He looked so happy. "Do you like basketball?" He asks. "Ya. I used to watch it all the time with my dad," I sigh, "but I never learned how to play it, which is a bummer since I really like it." "I guess I will have to teach you sometime," Jasen said with a crooked grin. We look back at Mr. Jones to know what we were doing in class and homework. 'Ring, ring, ring.' Jasen drops a note in my hand. I unfold it and it says:

Meet me in the gym after school

I turn to him and say, "I'm looking forward to it." He blushes and grins at me, "so am I". I wave as he walks out of the classroom. "Loser," someone coughed. I turn around to see Jessica Purl. She's the prettiest, most popular girl in school. Why would she be talking to me? She was as snobby and cruel as she was pretty and she was very pretty. "You really think you have a chance with Jasen?" She said, "Why would he like you? You're fat and ugly and nothing compared to me." Her minions laugh and they walk away. I felt a tear slip down my cheek as I head to second period.
