| James' POV |
"I can't believe this is happening." Skylar mumbles from the passenger seat of my truck.
I roll my eyes but turn the radio up, as to not disturb my best friend in the backseat.
The sound of kissing soon becomes absent, as the music takes its place.
"Why are they with us?" Skylar asks while looking over at me. She is referring to Ian and Margaret who are currently attacking each other's faces. It appears that Mr. Briggs did a swell job on picking partners.
"Because, we're all going to work on the project as a group." I shrug as I pull into my driveway.
After school, Ian and I picked up Margaret first, and then went to pick up Skylar.
"Why couldn't we just work on this together, alone?" She asks after getting out of my truck and following me to my front door.
"Awe, you wanted to be alone with me?" I wiggle my eyebrows.
"If it means not having to listen to that-", she points toward Ian and Margaret, who broke free long enough to get out of the truck, "Then yes!"
"I'll make a note of that for next time." I smirk while opening the front door and allowing everyone to enter.
Ian and Margaret take a seat on the couch in my living room, going right back to sucking face. Skylar sits in the love seat away from the couple, while trying her best to ignore them.
I plop down right beside Skylar in the only available spot, still giving her my signature smirk.
"Would you care to engage as they are?" I tease.
"Please, I'd rather continue to watch that horror show over there." She points towards Ian and Margaret.
I laugh right before something semi-small jumps into my laugh. It must have startled Sky, because she slightly jumps.
"Sky, meet Rufus!" I smile wide, softly patting his head as he stares up at me.
Skylar instantly smiles as Rufus jumps over onto her lap and Skylar begins petting him. "Hi Rufus!"
Rufus turns his head for a brief second, and then begins attacking her with dog kisses.
Skylar laughs while pushing his head away and he decides he is going to lay on her lap. Literally, he plops down and doesn't move as Skylar continues to rub behind his ears.
"So cute!" She beams and I smile at her.
"I guess Rufus has traded me in for you." I playfully state while watching her.
"This is one smart dog." She coos while shooting me a smirk.
After a few minutes, a noise comes from the kitchen, so Rufus jumps off Skylar's lap to go and investigate.
Ian finally pulls himself away from Margaret, to her dismay.
"Mom! Is that you?" Ian shouts happily while standing up and darting for the kitchen.
