[DISCONTINUED] Perhaps A Perfect Match | Jerome Clarke x reader

Chapter two

Y/N POV:
Raise and shine...at 6am! What the hell am I doing up? Guess I should take a shower and get ready.

After having a warm shower I wrap myself in a towel then brushed my teeth. I dryed my hair and changed then put my hair into a neat pony tail with my shorter pieces hanging down the front. Done.

Back in my room, Amber is awake and dressed as perfect as she always is; "Morning" I said politely and her in return. "Let's head down for breakfast?" She added and I nodded in agreement.

I sat in the same seat as yesterday, only myself, Amber and Eddie here at the moment. Trudy began laying the table and I offered to help her; "aww, would you, dear? That would be fantastic!" She said and I stood to help. Once everything was laid out, I sat down to Jerome and Alfie entering and taking their seats. Alfie had a giant sniggering smirk on his face.
"What's up with you?" I asked. "Oh errr...Jerome just told me a great joke." He replied. Yeah right! He's a terrible lier.

After breakfast we all began to head to collect our bags when I was stopped from behind.
"So Y/N, want to walk over together?" Jerome asked as I noticed no one else was in the enterence hall. "Sure." I answered, slightly dully and we both went to get our bags.

I arrived at the bottom of the stairs with Amber to Alfie and Eddie waiting. As soon as we got there Amber went off with Alfie and I was standing with Eddie. There was an incrediblely awkward tension between us. He broke the silence; "Do you want to walk across with me-us!" "Sorry, I would but Jerome already asked so..." I said trailing off. "Yeah, sure, cool." He said in hesitation. Both Jerome and Patricia came to us at the same time; "Ready?" They both said at the same time. I laughed and so did Eddie. "Why don't we just walk together?" Eddie asked. I was about to nod and Patricia already did when Jerome wasn't ok with the idea and waited for them to leave before we could. Weird.

On the walk, it was slow and steady. Silent but Jerome broke it; "So Y/N, what do you like? To do?" His hesitation was adorable. "I like music and films but I love doing pranks. It's hilarious!" I said back. His face was so astonished.

Jerome's POV:
Her answer was amazing. "I like music and films but I love doing pranks. It's hilarious!" She said with a huge smile on her face. I love her even more now. How is she so perfect?

Y/N POV:
"What?" I said with a playful punch to his arm. "What do you mean what?" He said as though he didn't know what I meant. "You're staring with a giant grin on your face." I said. "Yeah. Because we have to do a prank. Come on." He said then took my wrist to drag me so I'd walk faster.

When we got to school, we have science together. He made me sit with him but I wasn't complaining. He did have a great prank planned but I wasn't completely sold.
"Come on! It'll be great!" He pleaded. I agreed as long as he took the fall but that kinda of came with the plan.

Mr Sweet walked and asked for volunteers for the experiment. We both raised out hands. "Jerome?! What have you done to him Y/N?" Patricia asked as a joke.
"You two can have the first guess at what the added chemical is. Go ahead." Sir said. Jerome shock his head but I knew the answer; "Floride?" I said/asked. Sir nodded and then let us demonstrate. Here's the prank.
I explained the demonstration "So you add the Floride, which is the red mixture, to the blue nitrogastric acid and it should separate to create an alkaline." and Jerome was going to do it. He picked up the GREEN mixture and began to poor it into the blue; "No! Stand back!" I yelled. It created a small explosion and stained our skin green. I covered my face perfectly, Jerome didn't and neither did Mr Sweet. "Outside! Both of you!" He yelled and we ran outside laughing.

We stood by the lockers laughing to one another. "You're dead." I said.
Jerome: "Why only me?"
Y/N: "Because you poored the mixture. I 'tired' to stop you."
Jerome: "Damn! You're right."
"I'll take some blame, don't worry." I said punching his shoulder once more while we continued go laugh.

-Skipping to after school.-
Having the back of my hands stained green and a small part of my neck wasn't the best. Jerome had some on the side of his face and he didn't know.
"Hey, Jerome?" I said. "Yeah?" He replied. "That prank was super fun..." I began "But..." I stopped and he did then I stood infront of him. "You have green on your cheek." I said laughing and poking his cheek where the green was. He began to laugh; "And you let me walk around school with it all day?" "Of course! I said I love pranks." I laughed then walked off again.

Jerome's POV:
She laughed and walked off again. I stayed a few seconds and watched her walk. "You coming?!" She said loudly and I jogged up to her so we could walk back.

We arrived about 15 minutes later than everyone else. Amber and Alfie stood at the door when we entered. "Where have you been? With him?" Amber asked Y/N. "Walking back here, slowly." She said back with a slight attitude then walked upstairs, all the while I watched her.
