It's been around a week now , Jordan's still staying at Wills place, in my room and I'm still Tutoring Cory mostly everyday, now he just comes over, to see Jordan and well to learn.

Missy,  Nas and I have become allot closer too, I mean on the days I'm not tutoring Cory, I'm usually over one of their houses, eating chip shop chips and just becoming closer as friends.

The school tried to get a case against Mr Wilson, but Jordan didn't want to go through with it, which he made up and excuse for, multiple excuses even that he would randomly tell me in the middle of the nights but apart from that he didn't really have an excuse.

" Rough night again ?" Missy asks, as I walk up to the front of the school, after walking out of Wills car who ever so kindly drove Jordan and I too, but he just went to find his friend, his kind of girlfriend Chloe, whose Miss Keanes daughter.

" Couldn't sleep" I say, slightly rubbing my left eye with my free hand, that's not holding my phone.

Jordan keeps me up most of the night, almost as if he's scared to fall asleep, but doesn't want to admit it, so he just talks to me most of the time, which I don't mind that much purely because it's usually stories from his childhood with him and Cory.

" Well you look dreadful" Nas laughs, as we walk through the school doors.

" So do you" I smile.

" Ah thanks, have a nice day!" She says, as I hug both of them, and they walk in one direction and I go in another.

" au revoir" I shout to them as their backs are turned.

" I don't speak Spanish" Missy shouts back, which makes Nas and I laugh to where they carry on talking but I can't hear as I'm too far away.

I begin my voyage to find Cory like I usually do, and he's usually stood with Riz and Dan.

" Really?" I hear his voice say as I turn the corner to see him talking to Mr Bell, whose still living at Wills but I think I heard him talking to Miss Carter about moving back in soon.

" Well I better get going. You need to good!" Mr Bell says, noticing me behind Cory, and pointing at Cory before walking away from him, patting him on the back.

" What's that about then ay?" I ask him, as I notice he is smiling intently, he whips his head around and his smile grows even wider.

"There's a scout coming,  to watch me play rugby" he smiles, leaning against a locker and crossing his arms.

" Thats amazing, Mr Bell sort that out for you?" I question him, leaning against my locker too.

" yeah..." he says, just as the school bell begins to ring.

" You're gonna come right?" He asks me, as he stands back straight and I do the same thing.

" Wouldn't miss it" I smile, as he quickly hugs me before saying good bye and walking towards with his friends who are waiting for him to get done.

" I'll see you later" he smiles, looking back at me before walking away his friends.

" sorry, excuse me." I say, walking into the boys changing room to find Cory whose getting ready for the rugby, where the scout is watching him play.

The boys all watch me as I walk in, my eyes fixated on Cory whose in the middle of changing, but I'm not doing it in a creepy way.

" What are you doing?" He laughs, as he notices me coming in, after putting on his rugby shirt.

" I just wanted to wish you luck," I smile, repositioning my bag on my arm.

He smiles back at me, looking intently into my eyes even though loads of boys, who know what his reputation is.

" Thanks, I'm really..." He starts, but is cut off by us both hearing Mr Bell shout my name.

" Annie, boys changing room." Mr Bell says, pulling me back away from Cory.

" Good luck" I say, twisting my head back as I'm getting pulled out of the room.

" Thanks" He shouts back laughing as Mr Bell twists my head back to the door, where he opens it up and walks me outside, shutting it quickly behind him.

" Sorry" I say , raising my eyebrows at him, as I don't like to be in the wrong with people.

" Just don't do it again, yeah. Go, wait outside" he laughs, before pushing me on my way outside to the school field.
