~Maimouna's POV~
I walked towards my desk to grab my bag when someone grabbed me by the arm and spun me around. Next thing I knew I was facing a tall light-skinned guy with dark brown eyes. He was incredibly handsome, but not my type because you don't touch a lady without her permission."Hi, my name is Hakeem. What's yours?" He asked with the biggest smirk on his face.
I gave him a small smile before replying," You would know if you listened to my introduction, dipshit."
"That's not a nice word to say," he said it with a smirk on his lips.
I glared at him," It's not nice nor polite to grab girls by their arms." I countered while yanking my arm from his grip. When I finally got my arm away from him I grabbed my bag about to walk out of the classroom when Mrs Bonnet stopped me.
"Oh, Maimouna!" I turned to face her,"l forgot to ask someone to show you around the school." Her eyes scanned the class to see if anyone was left. Her eye land on Hakeem with Beats headphones on his head, playing loud music, and taking his bag about to leave the classroom."Hakeem, how many times have I told you to not listen to music in my class!" She shouted.
He immediately took off his headphones," Oh, Mrs Bonnet I thought you meant don't listen to music during your class."
She glared at him and said," You're trying to get smart with me, Hakeem. Detention, for the whole week."
I turn around just in time to witness his jaw drop so low that it touches the floor."Mrs Bonnet, you can't do that. This is the first week of school, I have basketball practice every single day this week after school. Coach is going to kill me. I do anything else, please." You could see the desperation in his eyes. It was quite funny. Just a few moments ago he was a cocky bum and now he is so desperate.
Mrs Bonnet let out a sigh," I won't give you detention if you show Maimouna around the school." The reason I had a bad feeling about this is that the moment she finished that sentence Hakeem had a mischievous smirk on his face.
My eyes widened," Mrs Bonnet, I don't need someone to show me around the school."
" No, it's okay maimouna. I will gladly show you around. We can even go right now," he walked towards me and slung on top of my shoulders. Walking me out.
" Wait, Hakeem. You can't show her around now, its lunch." She reminded him.
" Okay, I'll show her around after school," he replied with an annoyed expression on his face.
" I thought you have basketball after school." This lady is literally as nosey as hell.
" I'll excuse myself from practice, are you happy now," he asked in an exasperated tone.
" If you could excuse yourself from practice, why didn't you do that for the whole wee..." he left the classroom before she could finish her sentence.
" That lady likes to ask a lot of questions," he said in a agitated tone.
" You're telling me. She literally interrogated me in front of the whole class when I was introducing myself." I said agreeing with him.
" You'll get used to it. Okay, enough about her. Let's talk."
" Talk about what?" I asked in a confused voice.
" Like, do you have a boyfriend?" he murmured.
" No."
" Do you want one," he asked with a glimpse of hope in his voices.
"Nope," I replied.
" Why not," he questioned with all hope gone.
I giggled after noticing his expression change. The replying," I'm not interested in boys right now." After that, we walked to the cafeteria in silence.
We finally reach the cafeteria and he is about to open the door when someone stops him." Yoh, Hakeem wait up and who's that chick next to you? Is she your new 'girlfriend'," he said in a mocking tone. I scoffed aloud the the Hakeem let out a chuckle.
He turned around with his arm still on top of my shoulders." Sup, Prosper and no she's not my 'girlfriend'," he says with annoyance in his voice," well not yet." He looked down at me then smiled.
I look up at him with a smile," In your dreams."
