Not Your Groupie

Chapter 2

Emma's POV

I hummed softly as the warm water hit my back. I triple checked that my dark tangled hair was conditioner free then turned off the shower. I looked at my phone to see that it was currently 7:45 am. Class doesn't start for a whole 45 minuets.

I took my time drying off. I then tugged my T-shirt over my head and hoisted up my skinny jeans. After five minuets of jumping around my jeans were finally on. I opened the stall door as I flung my bag over my shoulder. I walked to the main part of the locker room and began to brush my hair.

"Em I think you're the only one who bothers to shower after practice." Shawna laughed.

"It feels great on the muscles!" I said brushing the knots out of my hair.

"Well it must be doing something right captain," she said physically saluting me causing everyone the giggle.

I rolled my eyes and began humming again.

"What's that song you always hum?" She asked.

"Wouldn't you like to know." I said as I threw on a pair of mismatch socks.

"That's why I asked," she said sarcastically.

"You think she's gonna tell you?" Leah laughed.

"What do you mean?" Shawna asked. "Em what's the song?"

I put my index finger over my lip and said, "shhhhh it's a secret."

Giggling she said, "fine don't tell me."

I began to hike up my cherry red high tops. The time consuming effort wasn't getting them on it was tightening the laces. I continued humming.

The locker room slowly emptied until I was left sitting alone on a bench by the full length mirror; until I was left to watch my every move in the mirror.

"Captain huh," I whispered.

I threw my volleyball bag over my shoulder as I stood up. I checked my phone and saw that the time was now 8:09 am. 21 minuets.

I sighed and sat back down opening by pre-calc binder turning to the homework that was do today. Sine equals opposite over hypotenuse. There is no way I'm gonna finish this before class.

I lost track of time. I didn't realize it till the bell rang.

"Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit!" I mumbled as I closed my binder and grabbed my bag.

I ran down the hallway till I reached my locker. 29 left 3 right 29 left and with that the door opened. I threw my bag in the locker and pulled out a notebook. I shoved the notebook in my binder and slammed the door closed. I took off sprinting, maybe I could sneak in with out anyone noticing. I reached the door and opened it slowly. I began to tiptoe into the room until I noticed all eyes face me. Shit! My eyes averted to the the front of the room. Standing next to the the teacher was someone I recognized.

"This is Luke. He just transferred from S.I.H." my teacher said.

I tried to sit down without anyone noticing, but was unsuccessful. The class all turned to face me.

Luke stood there wide eyed until he said, "Emma?"

"Hi Luke," I said bitting my lip as I took a seat in a desk in the front.

Some people in the class started to whisper.

"Miss Willis since you obviously don't care enough to show up on time you can be the first to hand in your homework from yesterday." Mr. Santon said.
