"Shawn" She says with no emotion at all. "The new kid?" I ask opening by notebook. She nods. "Yep but I don't know if our relationship is gonna last, I've never had a boyfriend before" She says. "He can teach you" I say . She nods. I see Joey walk in through the door.
Fuck. I forgot we have all the same classes. I roll my eyes and write down the notes the teacher left. I feel someone sit next to me. I look up and see Joey sitting next to me. He doesn't say anything. And neither do I. I don't have anything to say to him. I tap the person in front of me. It was Charles
"Do you have a blue pen I can borrow?" I ask. He turns around "let me check" He says giving me a weird smile. He looks through his bag and shakes his head. "No sorry" He says frowning. "Ask Joey" He says smiling at Joey.
NOOO
STUPID CHARLES.
Inside I'm planing on killing him but instead I just give him a smile. "Can I borrow a blue pen?"I ask Joey not looking into his beautiful eyes. Instead I look at his hands. He nods and looks through his pencil case. He gets out two blue pens and hands me one. "Here" He innocently says. I press my lips together and grab it. I begin to write down the notes Mrs. Odom had told us to write in blue pen.
"Do you have a red pen I can borrow?" I hear him ask. I turn and see Joey looking at me in the eyes. I quickly break eye contact and nod. I give him my red pen and keep writing my notes. I move my elbow to the side and accidentally make joeys pencils fall to the floor.
"Shit" I whisper. I bend over to pick them up and at the same time Joey does as well . Our hands touch. I look up and lock eyes with Joey. Our faces were inches apart. He starts to lean in and I do too. Our lips centimeters away, but then someone sits next to Joey making a pretty loud noise. I quickly pick up the pencils and get up.
"Heyy Joey!" Mackenzie says putting her hand on his shoulder. I roll my eyes. "Hi" He says kind of annoyed. "So I heard homecoming is just around the corner." She says twirling her hair in her finger.
I furrow my eyebrows. I guess homecoming is coming up.
"Yea, it is" Joey says still writing down his notes. "Well.... Do you want to go together?" Mackenzie asks licking her lips. "Hmm, I don't know. Homecoming isn't in like another week, I think it's too early" He says tapping my red pen on his notebook. "Oh, or is it that you have a girlfriend... " She sighs "or you were planning on asking someone already" She says disappointed.
Joey chuckles but doesn't respond. A group of boys come through the door. "Wassup everyone!" One of them says loud enough for the whole class to hear. "Next week on Friday, party at my place, 6pm . It's an early homecoming party so bring yalls dates!" Zach says. [Badzach]
I bite my lip and look down at my thighs. A smile creeps on my face. "are you going?" Kenzie asks Joey. "Ehh I don't know, if I have a date" He says putting his hand on his thigh. "Oh well if you need a date then I'm open." She says in a 'flirty' Voice.
Joey nods and keeps writing down stuff in his notebook

15 minutes into class and I'm already dieing. I put my head down on the desk and close my eyes. Someone slides a piece of paper under my arm. I get up and see Joey smiling.
He looks cute.... Wait! No he doesn't He cheated , Remember?!?
I press my lips together and open it up.
Can we talk during lunch time?!
In red ink. I sigh and bite my lip.i hesitate before answering. I slowly nod not knowing if it was the right thing to do. He gives me a smile that kills me. Kenzie taps his shoulder. Joey turns around and looks at her. "What?" He Whispers. "Can you help me with this?" She says biting her lip. Joey rolls his eyes and nods.
The bitch better back off before I set her straight.... Joey is mine.
My blood was boiling but I shake it off.

The bell finally rang and we were released from class. I walk towards my locker soon to be joined by Sawyer. "Hey" He says running a hand through his dirty blonde hair. "Hi?" I say in a questionable tone. He smiles. I didn't really want anything to do with this guy because there's rumors that he's dating a girl named tally and she's a drama queen. "Do you have a date for homecoming?" He asks biting his lip. I shake my head and furrow my eyebrows. "No, why?" I ask furrowing my eyebrows.
He puts his hands up in defense. "No reason" He says smiling. I nod
We walk into our next class. Geography, history, social studies.... Same thing... They're all boring.
I sit next to charles because Jacob was sitting with his friends and ari didn't have this class with me. "Hey, did you get the blue pen you wanted" Charles asked smirking. I look at him confused. He holds up a blue pen.... His blue pen.
I gasp "you had a blue pen!! And you made me ask Joey for one!" I say shocked. He starts to laugh. "I hate you Charles!!!" I say crossing my arms over my chest. "Hey! I helped, you talked to Joey!" He says calming down a little. "That's exactly what I didn't want... I didn't want to talk to him!" I say frowning. "Don't lie, I know you like him".....
"Shut up!" I say slapping his arm playfully. He touches it "oww" He says chuckling. Joey walks in with his head down. He had a pink hoodie on. He looks at Charles and smiles a weak smile. He sits next to me. I look at Charles and see him smiling like an idiot. I raise an eyebrow.

One thing that I hate most about this class is the way the teacher is. Every time she teaches she literally turns the temperature all the way to -6°f and doesn't turn it up if we tell her we're freezing. I had forgotten my hoodie at home this morning when I got mad at Jacob.
I was shivering and had goosebumps on my arms. "Are you cold?" Joey whispers in my ear. I shake my head. "Don't lie to me, please." He pauses. "Are you cold?" He asks again. This time I slowly nod closing my eyes. He smiles and takes his pink hoodie off. I watch his every move.
Him taking his hoodie off got all the girls attention. He looked at me, glanced down at my lips and back up at my eyes. He handed me his hoodie. "Here, wear it" He says softly. I nod and put it on. It smelled like him. I loved it, I loved having a piece of him with me. I smiled and looked at him. He gives me a warm smile and turns to the board.

I sit down on the cafeteria table next to ari. "Nice hoodie" She says smirking. I look down at the hoodie and realize I still had Joey's hoodie. "Shut up" I say blushing. "You should give him another chance, besides we all know how Lexi is anyway" She says. I bite my lip... She was right.
| another chance!? |
