It All Started With One Stupid Mistake

Chapter 2: The Unexpected

Have you ever been in a situation where you just prayed that the earth would open and swallow you up before something happened??
Yes?, well that's me right now with the new guy, Jaquani, walking towards the seat right beside me. He honestly looks so breathtaking, like I'd just want to wrap my arms around his neck and kiss those cherry pink lips...
        Hold up...what the hell did I just say!? Kiss the new guy??!! Wrap my hands around his neck??!!  Hell no! I value you my life, thank you very much.
"Hey cutie, mind if I sit here?" he asked, with a raspy smooth voice that made my inside tingled in a way.
I turned my head and didn't answer him, mentally rolling my eyes.
Cutie? Like really? How cheesy can this dude be!?
"Uhm, okay, I'll take that as a no" he replied and took a seat, making his self comfortable by extending his legs and leaning back in the chair.

I tried focusing on what Mr Walker was trying to say to us but i just couldn't because I felt his eyes piercing right through the side of my head. I slowly turned around and received a sly smirk from him while he twirled his pen in the air. He winked at me and then turned forward to look at Mr Walker.

Well....that was weird
Why was even smirking at me??

I honestly wanted to finish senior year without any drama whatsoever, but seems like new guy here wasn't gonna let me have it. Ashley, who was the school's Queen Bee, who just happened to sit on my right, two desks in front of mines, turned around and shot me a death glare.

See what I'm talking about!?

I felt a paper hit my shoulder and rolled onto my desk, hesitantly, I took it up and opened it.

The name's Jaquani, what's yours?

I crushed the piece of paper and stared back to the front of the class, ignoring his question.

Out of all the girls here, why did he have to choose me for his prey!?

Another paper landed on my desk and I was going to ignore it but decided to read it.

Are you dumb or something? Like can you not speak nor write!?

I read what the paper said in utter shock. He was such a jerk! How dare he be so rude because I refuse to address him. I should just give him a piece of my mind, insulting me like that!
I was about to turn around and say something to that piece of jerk but the bell beat me to it.
I quickly packed away my stuff and was about to head to the door, when he stopped me again.

"What class do you have now, cutie?"he said with his stupid smirk still plastered on his face
"None of your business, now leave me alone" I said through gritted teeth.
"Oh wow, she talks. Big shocker."he replied I gave him my best glare, rolled my eyes then walked out through the door.

~~~~~~
I got to Home Economics class 10 minutes late mainly because of two reasons, 1. Jaquani stopped me when I was exiting English class and 2. Its on the west wing of the school, which took a fair amount of time to get to.
My H.E teacher was Mrs Underwood, to some, she's a ruthless cruel woman, but I honestly think she's just a little strict. I've heard many say that whenever they wanted to switch partners who they got assigned to, when they didn't finish an assignment on time, or when they didn't do the assignment at all, she would freak and snap at them in a very harsh manner and still punish them. I am not sure if they were telling the truth but they did look quite serious about it and disdained by the memory.
Mrs Underwood cleared her throat and began to speak, "Okay class, we have a big assignment coming up that will be two months long, it will be an assignment done in pairs, a boy and a girl to be exact and..."she was interrupted by the door suddenly opening and guess who entered!??!?
None other than The Great Jaquani James.

Please take note of my sarcasm

"Mr James, you're late for my class and it's only your first day" Mrs Underwood said glaring at him.
He rolled his eyes before replying with a quick "sorry" and taking a seat beside this girl Tori, the president of the school magazine.
"Anyway, as I was saying class, this assignment will be done in pairs, a boy and a girl. I will be choosing the pairs. As it relates to what the assignment is, you'll be taking care of a fake baby, doing everything you have to do to real babies and at the end of the two months, you'll write a five page essay on your family and on your relationship with your partner"she said and almost the entire class groaned in disapproval. To be honest, I wasn't even fond of this assignment.
"Okay, everyone please settle down. Now listen out for your names to know who you'll be working with. Rayanna will be handing out the dolls after I've finished with the names", she paused to take up her book then continued, "Akeela and Brian, Tori and Cody, Ashley and Travis, Kayla and Timothy, Jody and Jamar, Malachi and Moya, Simone and Tyrese, and finally Kellyann and Jaquani" she finished

What did she just say? Am I hearing right!? Did she just pair me up with him!??

Jaquani strolled his way over to my desk, leaned his head down and whispered "Guess now that we're paired up, I'll have to call you my wife and the mother of my first child" he said, winked, and took a seat in the desk beside mines, again.

This cannot be happening....why? Why me god??

I knew right then, that this was gonna be the longest,  most difficult and torturing two months of my life.

Quite a lengthy chapter right?😁
How was it? Its still pretty early into the story but hey, the assignment is out😋...stay tuned, hmu down below in the comments and lemme know what you guys think about the first two chapters of my story.

With love,
