My Only Mistake

3: Friend?

"The Football try outs are today. You should go." Hamilton said while reading the football trials poster on the wall opposite my locker.

"No." I said, taking out my books.

"Come on. Dude. I'll try out with you." He said while opening his locker which was next to mine.

I zipped up my bag and closed my locker while I stood there, waiting for Hamilton
"I said no, ok?"

"Please. If you go, I owe you a huge favor."

"Fine. Only if you try out with me."

"Really? That quick? I thought I was going to have to beg you until after school. You are really gullible." He closed his locker and hung his bag around his shoulder.

"That was enough to change my mind."

I walked to class and Hamilton joined beside me.
"What? No. I didn't mean what I said. Please Connor Walker. We should try out new things. Who knows, maybe we are really good at football."

"Me? Good at football? Oh please. I'll just make an embarasment of myself."

"That's why we should give it a try. To get the real results."

I opened my mouth to say something before I saw Vanessa heading our way.

Vanessa Hughes. The school's bitch. Everyone knows her because of her scheming ways to get good grades.

All I can say is that she definitely lost her virginity to our 5th grade Natural Science teacher.

Disgusting.

"Hey. You must be Hamilton. I'm Vanessa. Vanessa Hughes. I can show you around the school if you want." She said while touching Hamilton's arm.

Hamilton looked at me with a confused but disturbed expression. I shrugged, giving him a small smile.

He looked back at Vanessa and gave her a 'get the fuck away from me' smile.

"Hi. I really don't need your services, Connor here already showed me around."

Vanessa looked around with a confused face.

"Connor, who's Connor?"

I rolled my eyes and folded my arms.

"There's Connor." He said, pointing at me.

She looked at me with disgust and moved her eyes from my head to toes to head.

"Are you also new?"

Hamilton giggled while looking at the floor.

Dumbass.

"No."

"Oh. How come I've never seen you?"

"I don't know. I've never seen you around here before. Are you also new?" I lied through my teeth.

She scoffed and rolled her eyes.
She turned to face Hamilton with a big grin

"Bye Hamilton. Just shout if you need anything."

She turned around on her heels and walked away.

"I certainly will not," Hamilton mumbled while walking to class."Who was she anyway?"

"The school's bitch. I'm sure she's fucked every teacher here."

"Even female?"

"That girl can do anything to get grades. She loves playing. In class she doesn't listen but somehow she gets the highest in the school."
