Days rolled by, Jeremy started school making Flaca's school life even harder, him having the confidence of the sexiest man alive soon made friends with the popular jocks. Keith, Jack, Kevin and him were like best buds now. He had also become Maritza's boy best friend in just a few days.
Flaca was doing her locker when she heard the familiar chuckling coming from the corridors, she looks down to the ground and bites hard on her lip knowing what was about to happen.
"hey there, skinny"
Jack greets her pinning her to her own locker, Flaca says nothing
"have you met our new friend?"
he continues now roughly pushing her away from the locker as they all surrounded her, Jack walks around her twice and after getting no response to his question he pulls Flaca's messy bun aggressively making the younger woman groan in pain as she moved with the action hoping it would reduce the impact
"I asked a question Gonzales, and when I ask you a question you need to answer it"
he says under his breath but loud enough for the others to hear it
"I do- I've met him"
she says never making eye contact with them, praying to god that none of them notice the letter in her hand that she had written the night before for her father
"you know how to spell his full name?"
Jack asks, Flaca nods immediately
"spell it out skinny"
"J-E-R-E-M-Y S-O-L-A-N-O"
Flaca spells out
"good girl, here ya go! for next Monday"
Jack says passing her 3 assignment titles that were originally assigned to Jeremy
Jeremy gives her a dirty grin and mouths her "thank you sis" making Flaca's eyes boil with anger if she doesn't do them then she'll get in trouble with all of them
better to just shut my mouth, she thinks to herself. After a few moments, she feels the letter being snatched away from her hands. Her eyes immediately travel to the same direction the letter had gone finding it in Keith's hand as he acted like he was analyzing it.
"what's this?"
Keith says as the gang gathered behind him seeing that Keith was slowly opening the letter while looking at Flaca with a cheeky smile
"just give it back, please? ever heard of privacy?"
Flaca says trying to snatch the letter from the blonde male
"Oh, you sure you wanna use that tone with me skinny?"
Keith says taking a step forward now closer to Flaca
"I'm sorry"
the Latina says quietly as she broke off eye contact feeling scared
"Hey guys, what's going on?"
a voice comes from behind them, they all turn at once as Keith quickly backed off from Flaca
"Ramos! you're early today"
Keith greets her with a wide smile
"My mom dropped me off before she headed to work so I didn't have to walk"
Maritza smiles at all of them
"soo, what'cu doing? we always meet in front of Mr.Lushcek's room"
Maritza asks again walking towards Keith now being able to spot the tall girl she had met a few days ago.
"hey"
