"Greek Mythology. Who can name at least five Greek mythological figures?" Mrs. Carter asked. No one raised their hand.
History has always been one of my favorite subjects. Therefore I always payed attention. My classmates on the other hand, were half asleep.
"Zeus, Ares, Athena, Hades, and Apollo." I answered. Greek Mythology and the Salem Witch Trials were by far my favorite units.
"Thank you, Isabelle. Good to know someone's paying attention." Mrs. Carter said before going on with the lesson.
"For the next few minutes, I want you all to do some research on any god or goddess of your choosing. Tomorrow, I'll show a PowerPoint and I will be asking questions so make sure you're ready." She explained as the bell rung.
"You have two weeks until your test!" She finished as students piled out of the classroom.
After I left the classroom, I headed down the hall, towards my locker, hoping to see Mo standing by my locker. But instead, Brayden was leaning against it.
"What do you want?" I asked when I got to my locker.
"Hello to you too." He chuckled.
"Fine. Hello, what do you want?" I asked again.
"You never answered my question from lunch yesterday."
"Yes I did. You don't need to worry about the dress code because you're not invited." I said, remembering the events that took place.
"Sure I am, Princess." Brayden took a step towards me. "I'm the life of the party."
I pushed past him and opened my locker. "One, stop calling me that. Two, I don't want you there."
Brayden leaned his back against the locker next to mine. "See, you keep saying that but I know deep down that you really want me there."
"Actually, I really don't." I informed him, grabbing my English book, then shutting my locker to look at him.
"Fine." He stepped closer to me once again. He brought his hand up to my face and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. "I'll see you later, 𝓟𝓻𝓲𝓷𝓬𝓮𝓼𝓼 𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓮." He whispered before walking off.
I was taken aback by our little encounter that I was late to my next class.
What is this idiot doing to me.

"Hey, where were you at lunch?" Mo asked when she walked up to me. School had just ended and I was waiting for Mo by her locker.
She wanted to take me shopping today after school so we can get me something "socially acceptable" to wear for the party. I finally agreed.
"Mr. Reed held me back since i was late to his class." I told her.
"Why were you late?" Mo asked, putting her books in her locker.
"It wasn't my fault. It was stupid Brayden's."
"What did y'all do?" She smirked. "Did you do.. each other?"
I rolled my eyes. "We are no longer friends." I joked.
"I'm just kidding." She laughed. "But for real, what happened?" Mo shut her locker and we walked out towards my car as I explained why the idiot made me late.

This chapter is really short and I'm really sorry. This chapter also kinda sucks ass but it's a filler and I promise it'll get better <3
