dangerous; a prettymuch story

i

"you cannot be deadass right now," i mumbled to myself hearing the bell ring outside my new school. it was my first day, first damn day and i'm already late to first period. this is deadass not the wave. i started walking slower realizing no matter how fast i walked, i would've been late. pushing the double doors to the building i made my way to the main office to get my schedule.

"name please" the secretary asked typing into the computer.

"um gabriela franco" i replied. she handed me my schedule and i thanked her. walking down the hallways i started to look around. the lockers looked kinda old and wore down. the walls were off white and the doors had chipped blue paint as if someone picked at them every once in a while.

double checking my schedule to make sure i was going the right way, i read the room numbers looking for my english class. stopping in front of the door, i took a deep breath and turned the knob walking into the room. all heads turned and in a matter of two seconds, everyone's eyes were on me. glancing around at everyone's faces i saw some of the guys smirking at me and the girls gave me either a dirty look or looked bored. the teacher finally spoke.

"oh i completely forgot! everyone, this is our new student. hello i'm ms. dickson, would you care to introduce yourself to the class?" she rambled. she seemed nice i guess. i turned my head back to the 20 faces that were staring at me.

"um, my names gabby, i'm eighteen, dominican and i just moved from the bronx." i said trying to sit down. i've never really had trouble speaking in front of other people but the way all these kids were staring at me, i was getting hella uncomfortable.

"so gabby, look for any seats available and just sit in it, okay sweetie?" ms. dickson said patting my back and gesturing to the side of the classroom where the other kids sat.

"yo shawty, there's a seat available on my lap, come sit on it." this white boy said laughing and getting high fives from other guys. he didn't really look tall, he had short brown hair that was shaved on the side. there were piercings on his ears and he looked like he had sharp teeth, like a shark almost. he was cute, not even gonna lie. i could already tell that he was "that guy" that everyone knew.

"umm ms. dickson, do you think there are any seats that aren't close to justin bieber?" i indirectly replied. everyone laughed and sharkboy just smirked at me. i sat in the seat in front of him smirking back.

as class went by, sharkboy would pass me notes on my desk that would have corny compliments on them. him and his friends would also whisper things about me along the lines of,

"she look good tho"
"damn yo that ass valid"
"can she be mines tho for real"

the bell finally rang and i gathered my things and left the classroom. as i was walking i heard foot steps behind me as if someone was trying to catch up to me. not a second later i see sharkboy in front my face, putting his hand on the locker catching his breath from obviously running after me. after he regains his posture, he gives me his signature smirk that i've been given the pleasure to see for the third time.

"hey shawty" he says.

"what's good sharkboy," i reply, giving him a smirk back.

"deadass...? you're name for me is really sharkboy?"

"yessir, be greatful because i have a couple more names in the back of my mind that i could give you."

"like what? daddy? because i wouldn't mind if you called me that."

"aight sharkboy you can chill out with that one, i don't want you to go to class needing to fix your little friend down there."

"nah don't try to play me like that. trust me shawty whatever i'm packing in my pants isn't little."

"is there a reason why you stopped me?" i asked trying to get straight to the point.

"look ma, i'm tryna get to know you. maybe you can sit with me and my crew if we have the same lunch period. do you have it fifth?"

"yeah, i do" i said looking at my schedule.

"bet, i guess we have a deal then. see you then ma." sharkboy replied walking away.

looks like the rest of this day is gonna be interesting, i thought to myself as i made my way to physics class.
