SIX YEARS AND SOME MONTHS AGO.
"Hello!?" James said from the phone.
"James....., I have a problem!!" I said.
"I'm listening!!" He said.
"I'm tired of being paired with a jerk!!" I spat.
"I know, Cinnamon's actually great, that's if you don't call her mean!!" James said.
"Thanks for the information, I don't care about the red head. I care about the hood head!!" I said.
"Okay Beth, you just have to talk to him, okay?" He asked.
"Fine." I said and hung up. I put on lip gloss and adjusted my beret. I was wearing dark blue jeans, white top with it's collar over my cream sweatshirt. Cream sneakers and my hair fell from the side of my face, almost covering my right eye, reaching my abdomen, and the left side behind my ear, with my dark blue beret on my head.
I smiled.
I took my backpack and left the room.

"I'm talking to you!!" I snapped at the mysterious hoodie guy. No one has seen his face. And it's weird.
"You have to participate, and I know you can talk so just talk to me. I hate it when I'm talking to someone and they don't reply back? Or are you getting deaf or what? She gave us the project together, and we were to do it as a......"
"You talk to much!!?" He finally said.
"Excuse me.... I'm not some mysterious girl!!" I said.
"Well who cares if you are?" He snap.
"I dislike you!!" I snap back
"I don't want to be seen with you!!" He snap.
"Why? I'm popular!!" I snap.
"I don't fuc...." I closed my ears.
"Spare with me the bad word!!" I said.
"I'll say it if you work with me!!" He said.
"What planet are you from?" I asked him.
"Mars....no, Jupiter!!" He said. So, he's from outerspace?!?!
"Jace Hamilton!! We are to work together, and You have no choice. You'll do it whether you like it or not!!!" I yelled.
"I don't know what the butt is wrong with you!!!" I added.
"I could do a lot if things but not get a F. All because of some proud boy!!" I said again. I calmed down.
"Just let's do this frankly!! No buts, no no's." I said. I breathed in and out.
"PL..... PLEASE!?" I said and he looked at me.
"You told me politely, and so I will politely say this, in a very nice way!!" He said.
"You're cute, and pretty, and intelligent. Very lovely!!" He said. I smile.
"And sweet. The most nicest popular I've ever known. But, I'm sorry. I can not work with you. I never use the magic word so consider yourself honoured. Thank you!!" He said and left the janiotors closet!! I scoff and hit my hand on the wall.
"Jerk!!" I yelled as I breathed in and out, three times. I smile and left the janitors closet!! I have a new idea. One that will not even consist of that stupid guy. All without him. And my painting will be Masterpiece!! I walked away.
