Little Children (Merome)

6. My Own Thoughts

*Jerome's POV*

"Ok guys, this was only the Meet and Greet. School starts next week on a Monday." The teacher says.

Can't wait till I get the yearbook, I can stare at Mitch's face all day... Wait, what? (A/N, Don't act like you guys don't do that to your crush... Oh wait you don't? That's awkward... Well, ON WITH THE STORY)

"Well Meet and Greet is over, so you guys may go home now." The teacher said a little to excitedly.

She must be really anxious to get home...

We started to exit out of the classroom doorway. I saw all the parents sitting down in the hallway talking to other parents while waiting for us.

I walked up to my mom and shook her shoulder.

"Huh? Oh, it's only you Jerome. Is it time to go?"

"Yup."

"Ok then sweetheart." She got up and shook the woman's hand she was talking to.

Mitch came up to the woman my mom was talking to.

"Oh, is this your child?" My mom asked the woman.

"Yup, Mitch, do you know Jerome's in your class?"

"U-uh, ya mom, let's go."

He's in a rush... Does he have a dentist appointment or something?

*Mitch's POV*

"U-uh, ya mom, let's go." I tried pulling her arm, signaling that I wanted to go quickly.

"Bye, hope I see you around some time!" My mom told Jerome's mother.

While I was tugging on my mom's arm telling her to go faster she gave me a death glare.

When we finally got in the car she asked me.

"Mitchell, what you did there was so rude. Why did you NEED to go so quickly?"

It's because Jerome was there...

Didn't want to embarrass myself too much, so that's why I wanted to leave quickly.

"I have my reasons." I snapped.

Of course I didn't say what I was thinking though.

My mom sighed and looked directly into my eyes through her mirror.

"No video games today, take that time to control your attitude." (A/N Parents, am I right?)

"FINE!" I shouted a bit too loudly.

"Don't make me make it into one week Mr."

"Can, can we just go already?" I mumbled. I didn't want Jerome to walk out here and hear my mom and I arguing.

She started driving and both of us were silent the whole time home.

*Jerome's POV*

My mom and I were walking toward the exit doors.

"So what were you and Mitch's mom talking about?" I asked

"Oh! Um, we were talking about the school year and how maybe you and Mitch could become good friends."

I smirked at the words 'good friends'.

"What's so funny?" She said as she started to unlock the car door.

I opened the door and sat down.

"Oh nothing."

Nothing, nothing except my own thoughts.

Please comment and tell me if these chapters are long enough. I'm starting to worry that they're way too short.
