Songs of this chapter:
Check yes, juliet - we the kings
Must have done something right - relient k
the the basement - teenage battlerock
Violet's P.O.V
What the fuck's his deal? He can't just speak to anyone he wants like that! And the weirdest part? It's as if he was completely oblivious to the fact that that was abnormally inappropriate.
I ran to the cark park and spotted Ez's neon purple fiat. I ran to the passenger seat and slammed the door shut.
"Woah, bitch alert, what the hell happened out there?"
"Luke Hemmings happened!" I screamed angrily
"Wait, Luke Hemmings in our class Luke?" She said turning to look at me
"Yes, that Luke" i glared at her "he's an asshole you know?"
"Well damn, someone's on bitch mode" she raised her hands up.
I love Ez, I really do. But she just gets on my nerves sometimes. We're practically the same person and I'm pretty sure there's an invisible thread that connects us to the hip. Both of us swear it will hold tiull death. We're exactly the same yet so different. I'm little, brunette with big curls and not that curvy. While she's tall, blonde and has all the right curves, oh and she's American.
"So did you get my Taylor Swift album?" She asked me completely ignoring what I had just said about Luke. Ez's guilty pleasure is Taylor Swift and she's absolutely obsessed with her. She even owns a blog dedicated to her. Americans.
"Yeah," I rummaged around my bag before taking out the album and handing it to her "why couldn't you go in yourself?"
"I got banned from there" she said casually
"You got banned from target?!"
"Yeah, like a month ago, didn't I tell you? I had a cat fight with one of the costumers because I'm pretty damn sure I spotted that last box of granola bars before she did"
"You fought over granola bars?" That's stupid as hell.
"Ya, but they aren't just any type, I heard that they make you loose weight so I'm giving it a try" she said proudly
"Wait I thought you were on a diet. Weren't you supposed to be vegan for like, the next 6 months?"
"It's the only exception darling." Ez said as she started the car "Hey, I forgot to ask you, can I stay at yours today? My mom's seeing that new guy I told you about and he's coming over tonight so I'd really appreciate it if I wasn't awaken ever two seconds by my mom moaning his name"
"Yeah sure, you know you're always welcome" I said shrugging the hateful feeling I had about Luke off. Forget about him.
"I know, jeez, I'm trying to be polite here"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever Ez"
++++++++++
The next morning, Ez and I drove to Starbucks before school and decided to chill there since we were half an hour early. She drank her coffee and ate that infamous granola bar as I slurped on my caramel frappe.
"Shit" she muttered lowly
"What?" I asked wanting to know what she's thinking
"We have biology today." She groaned
"It's not that bad," i said
"Coach hates me, and do you even know what our new chapter is about?" Ez asked me
"Um, no? Should I?"
"It's about sex, yes, sex" what....
"Well then..." I said trailing off
"Come on let's go, we have sex to catch" Ez said grabbing my hand and dragging me to her car
++++++++++++
We walked into biology and HUMAN REPRUDUCTION (SEX) was written in big letters on the board. My jaw dropped as I saw Barbie and Ken who were forced to link arms and naked.
"Why Ez, I could almost swear you were looking forward to this class" I said smugly
"It won't teach me anything I don't already know" she shrugged
Ez and I walked to our regular seats in the front of the class, but before i could sit I saw a familar blond head sitting in the back, Luke. As soon as he spotted me he waved with a big toothy smile on his face. I just rolled my eyes, sat down and focused my attention back on coach who was wearing a pink tracksuit. Nice.
"Seats everyone!" Coach yelled.
"Well it may have occured to you that sex isn't just a 15 minute trip to the closet. It's science. And what is science?" Coach asked
"boring" one kid in the back said
"the only class I'm failing" another yelled
"Luke." Coach said.
everyone turned their gaze to Luke
"uh, the study of something" he said
"what else?" coach asked, "Violet"
"Knowledge gained through experimentation and observation." Lovely, I sounded like I was auditioning for the audiobook of out text book.
"science is an investigation, it requires us to turn into spies"
put it that way, science sounds almost fun but I've been in the class for too long to get my hopes up.
"sleuthing takes good practice" coach stated
"so does good sex" the same kid who said boring said.
coach pointed a warning finger at the offender "that, won't be apart of today's homework"
"Violet, you've been sitting next to Ez since the begining of the year." I nodded, I don't like where this is going... "I bet both of you know quite alot about eachother"
Ez kicked me under the table. I knew what she was thinking. He actually had no idea how much we knew about eachother. And I don't just mean the secrets we entomb in our diaries. She's my un-twin.
"In fact, I'll bet each of you know the person sitting next to you very well. You picked the seats you did for a reason right? Familiarity. Too bad the best sleuths avoid familiarity. Which is why today, we are creating new seating charts." I opened my mouth to protest but Ez beat me to it
"What the hell? It's February! You can't do this now!"
"actually I can do this until the very last day, and if you fail my class, you'll be here next year as I do the same thing all over again"
Ez scowled at him, she's famous for that scowl.
coach put the whistle in his mouth, and we got the idea.
"every partner sitting on the left hand side of the table- that's your left- yes, inculding you Ez- move to the back"
Ez slammed her books shut and threw them in her bag. She's pissed. I bit my lip and waved a small farewell to her.
And then the unexpected happened, Luke Hemmings sat right next to me.
