I groaned and threw my hand down onto the alarm clock. Too early. I don't wanna wake up. I don't want to tutor this brat. I don't want to but I have to. I threw myself out of bed and grabbed a black crop top, a pair of black jeans and, my black and white high tops Jordan's ,brushed my teeth and hair then left the bathroom in record time, meaning I could actually have a muffin for breakfast today!
"Hey honey. There is a muffin on the table. Bus will be here in five," Shery said casually while trading Scarlette's silky long hair, Scarlette's hair reached her shoulders. Both of us had barely ever cut our hair. She's had one haircut and some trims; I ve had three haircuts and about fifteen small trims in my seventeen years if living my hair actually reaches to near the small of my back. I'm proud of my long hair, and since I'm tall for my age,my hair is pretty long, about enough about hair.
"K," I replied quietly and grabbed my backpack, which was heavy with my books,papers,pencil cases and so on. They make us bring stuff we don't use for about 99.7% of the school year, its so annoying. I looked out the window to find out it was pouring outside.
Dad walked in, fully dressed for work. Dad has his own company and Shery works at the bank.
"Alright, the bus is here. Love ya bye!" I gave dad and Scarlette a hug before funning out the house and into the rain. I forgot my umbrella. The bus waited for me to board before taking off again. I slumped down in an empty seat and sighed. It's only Tuesday and I'm ready for the weekend.

I was sitting in English, dreading the end of school. I really don't want to tutor him. I don't want anything to do with him. He's just some popular jerk,a cliché. He probably doesn't like me either,since talking to Cartney is a guarantee that you'll hear at least three horrible things about me....and I also yelled at him. That won't help my impression. But why do I want to make a good impression with that asshole?
"Ms. Ross? Can you answer?" Mr. Tuten's voice snapped me out of my entrance. I looked up at him and blushed out of embarrassment. Crap,what did he ask? What do I say? Everyone's looking at me! Isn't Ash in English with me? What would he say if he is!?
"Uh. I could .but not thanks?" The laughter in the room grew and Mr.Tuten only shook his head.
"Please pay attention." He walked back to the board and continued teaching. Scanning the classroom briefly for Ash's face, I heard his laughter near the back. He saw me. He herd me. He watched me do that. My blush rose to my ears and I put my head down, taking in bits and pieces of what Mr.Tuten was teaching about the differences of between Spartan women and Athenian women for whatever reason. Wasn't this suppose to be English class.
"You see, Spartan women were often communicated in combat....". Blah blah blah blah blah de blah blah. ".... Athenian were expected to stay home and...."Blah blah blah. I pretended to take notes as Mr. Tuten rambled on and on. I wish I could be a Spartan woman right now. Freedom and rights. But wouldn't that give them more responsibilities? Urgh.
The Bell rang, causing everyone to scramble out of their seats to be the first one out. I quickly join the influx of students at the door and was about to walk out when I felt a hand on my shoulder holding me back. It was too firm to be Mr.Tuten's so I look back to see Ash looking at me with a serious expression plastered on his face. I grimaced before looking him in the eye with the same deadpan expression on my face.
"What?" I asked with an annoyed tone. Ash seem to find my annoyance funny because he's smirked. I stayed deadpan.
" just wanted to remind my tutor that we're meeting in the school library" he responded, putting special emphasis on the word "tutor" before walking off, not even given a chance for me to respond. What a little.... Oh, right I can't be late for STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math) Mrs. Steen would kill me.
I ran out of the Classroom, past Ash and his gang of imbeciles, down the hallway turned onto the corridor for 12th grade and walk into the fourth class room on the Left. The tardy bell rang seconds after I sat down, perfect timing. Now I only had to get through to this class, lunch and an hour of tutoring before I was free to go home.
"Okay,guys! We only have till Thursday to complete our City's new team and get to work," Mrs. Steen announced as everyone shuffled towards their assigned team and corner. I was assigned to a team with a tall brunette girl name Korie, Paige and a boy name Colby. Colby is a cute and funny Freshman. Making me and Paige laugh all the time, I would totally ask him out if he wasn't a freshie but, friend is good enough I guess.
"Korie and Paige got our Styrofoam City out of the closet and to our corner. Yes that's the name of our city: styrofoam City. I got out our cardboard skyscrapers and painted LEGO buildings while Corby got out our Styrofoam trees and toy cars. We've been working on this city for three weeks. We have the sky background, roads and even a sewage systems underneath, but we need to hot glue the buildings, trees, people and cars in place , take the final measurements for the support beams underneath, and write down out supply list
" Okay guys, let's get this done. We're so going to win this fabulous City," Korie said, standing on a chair. We voted her as the leader of the project, seeing as she was the only senior in our small group. " Paige,start hot gluing the buildings and cars in place. Kayla, you can put the support beams in place. Colby, start on out supply list. I'll hot glue the trees and people. Okay, lets do this.
I grab the pieces of wood from the supply closet and after giving the measurements to Colby, start fitting them and then if this city. Once that was done, I painted them the silver that we agreed on. Paige finishes hot gluing the buildings and starts on the car. I Began to clean up our Workspace and help Colby with the list. Looking at the time, I panic when I realise we only have 7 more minutes. Korie isn't even halfway done, and Paige is struggling. I pick up a hot glue gun to help out Paige. We'll have to finish tomorrow, I guess.
"Okay, times up for today! Start cleaning up please." Mrs.Sneed yawned. We all started putting things away, pushing to get to the supply closet without damaging our fragile cities, and talking up a storm. I picked up my backpack and explained to Paige about how I got stuck as Ash's tutor.
"Mrs.Elibox never told me who I had to tutor ,so once I learned that it was Ash, it was too late!" I groaned. Paige shook her head in disbelief. She was partially envious because I was forced to spend an hour alone with this kid three times a week. Way more than I wanted.
"You are so lucky! You get to spend three hours a week alone with the hottest boy in 11th grade! Girls would kill to be in your position. Stop complaining, I'm sure he's not that bad. But be careful," she warned. I sighed and shook my head as the final bell rang. I didn't want to do this. Not one bit. Not with a self-absorbed-girl-user. Walking out of the 12th grade corridor, I crossed the main hallway that connected all the grade corridors to the library. The library was never used. At least not for the four years that I've been here,I mean. And now I was going to be stuck in there for an hour.
Rest in peace,me.
