Corbyn

Monday 12:05pm

"May I go to the restroom?" I ask Mrs.Smith.
"Of course Mr.Besson"
I get up from my seat and head to the bathroom. When I open the door I see Jonah Marais standing by the mirror.
He seems to be thinking hard. He is mumbling words under his breath. Bam!!
There is glass everywhere. Jonah just punched the mirror.
"Ah fuck! Why am I such an idiot!" He exclaims. I take this as my cue to walk in.
"Hey um Jonah, I know we don't talk nor do you like me but you're kinda bleeding alot. So could I take you to the nurse?" I ask.
"Oh Besson, I haven't heard you say more than one sentence since freshman year." He says
"I-i talk. I'm in theatre." I say trying to stand my ground.
"I know that Besson, but besides theatre you don't really talk much." He tells me.
"Whatever, let me take you to the nurse." I say.
"Fine, fine." He replies following me out of the bathroom and into the hall.
It's currently lunch for the seniors so the halls are pretty empty, minus the occasional couple making out.
"Corby, what are you doing in here? Did you get hurt? Who do I have to kill!" The school nurse, or better known as mom to me, says.
"M-mom I'm fine." I say embarrassed Jonah had to hear that.
"Oh okay, then what is it? Do you need some extra money? Will a hundred do?" She says reaching for her wallet.
"N-no I don't need money. This is Jonah, he is bleeding pretty bad. Could you fix him up?" I ask.
"Why of course. " she says finaly looking at Jonah. "You must be Jonah! I'm Saskia Besson, Corbyn's mom."
"It's nice to meet you." Jonah smiles. "I'd shake your hand but mine is kinda bleeding."
"Let me bandage that for you." Mom says before going to grab some supplies.
"Your mom is the school nurse?" Jonah asks.
"Y-yeah. "I stutter out.
"That's so cool!" He exclaims.
"Wait really?" I ask.
"Well duh. Your mom seems like she's the best."He says. "She was just gonna give you $100 and you declined?"
"She already gives me a weekly allowance of $200. I don't think it's right to ask for more." I explain.
"$200?! A week?" He says surprised.
"Yeah I know it's more than most but it's only me,mom,and Ashley, my sister. So she tries to give us everything we need plus some." I say.
"Ah I'm sorry man" He says. Mom comes back soon and applies bandages to him.
"Bye Corby. Bye Jonah, and don't forget to see me tommorow about that hand." Mom says as we walk out.
"Of course Mrs.Besson, see you tomorrow." He replies.
Once we reach his classroom we stop.
"It was nice talking to you again Corbyn." He says smiling.
"Yeah, I haven't talked to you in years." I say.
"Wanna maybe exchange numbers? Stay in contact" he says.
"Sure." I say handing him my phone. He hands me his phone as well.
I just set my name as Corybn Besson before handing him his phone. He hands me my phone and as I walk off I hear him say "See ya later Besson." I cant help but smile as I walk away.
