P.s I love you

Chapter 10: Ideas

*Ash Lee's P.O.V*

Something hit me in the shoulder causing me to wake from my light sleep. I moaned and turned my head to see Jackson ready to hit me again with a paper ball made of his class notes. "Oh, you're up," he said slightly startled. "Class was over 10 minutes ago man, what were you doing last night? And where did you get that jacket from?"

I scratched the back of my neck and looked down to check what I was wearing. Why am I still wearing Kim's stupid jacket? I looked at Jackson and shrugged. I looked around the room and found the clock.

~ 12:00 pm ~

Wow how long was I out for?

*Mark's P.O.V*

It's only been two days of this project and my partner won't leave me alone. She walks me around like I'm her pet just because she's the most popular girl at school. She's been so eager for me to be around her that I haven't even been able to see Kim, the normal Kim.

"Kimmieeee!!!!!" One girl screamed as she ran towards Kim and they gave each other one of those pathetic two cheek kiss things. "Brittany, how are you," Kim said so falsely that I couldn't even believe that the dumb blonde didn't notice.

"Ohhh! Who's this!" Brittany said referring to me. I rolled my eyes and just as I was about to force an introduction Kim cut me off. "This is Mark, he's my partner for the big project," she smiled proudly. "He's cute," Brittany whispered loudly and I shook my head at her stupidity. "I know." Kim said back with a smirk before walking off and Brittany just mirrored her look in return.

What was that all about? I shook off my thoughts and decided not to worry about it. It's probably none of my business anyway.

I sped up to catch up to Kim. Once I reached her side I decided to ask her finally, "so when are we actually going to start the project?" I asked her and waited for an answer. " ummm... Well, I was kind of hoping that you'd already started it. I actually have no ideas.." She told me staring at the floor trying to look innocent.

Oh, I see how it is. Assume that your assigned Asian partner is smart and make him do all the work. Racist much?! I balled my hands into fists then took a really heavy deep breath. "Why don't we meet up tonight and brain storm some ideas?" I suggested in the nicest way I was able to deliver it. "sounds good!" She said suddenly beaming. Weirdo. "Then it's settled. I'll meet you tonight at 5 at the school gates. So if you'll excuse me I'm going to go find Kim, the other Kim."

And without a word I turned around and left her.

Kim and I decided to walk home together after school, after all I owed her. I hadn't seen her in two days, she must of gotten lonely.

"So how's the project going?" I asked her breaking the silence. Her face screwed up and she clenched her teeth. "We'll lets just say that I bought ice cream, things didn't go well and now my partner thinks I'm a nut job." I laughed at her but stopped immediately when she gave me the look. I gulped. "Well my partner thinks just because she got an Asian as a partner she can get away with doing nothing!" I looked over to Kim and watched her try desperately hard not to laugh, "that's, that's unfortunate." Kim said as seriously as she could before she burst in to laughter. I couldn't help but laugh with her.

I checked my watch

~ 6:55pm ~

Then I dug my hand right back into my pocket. It was really cold tonight. And I was standing out front of the school gates waiting for my ungrateful partner Kim Smidarings to show up. I quickly threw my head up to the sound of some kind of clicking noise coming towards me.

I looked to my left to see Kim approaching me with 6 inch stilettos on and a short, tight fitting dress. Is she normal!? Does she realize how cold it is??? "I'm here" she sang as if her presence just made my life 100 times better. "Aren't you cold!" Shouted at her as I grabbed her arm and pulled her into the office and stood her next to the fire place.

Seriously. A girl as skinny as her would freeze it death in that weather and especially in what she was wearing. "So have you gotten any ideas yet?" She said batting her obviously fake eyelashes. "Well first I think we should compare interests then start brain storming. After all that's what the project us all about, showcasing your passion," I said taking a seat and she did the same.

"Well, I'm really into fashion and modeling," she said whilst flicking her hair over her shoulder revealing the top of her strapless dress. Was she trying to seduce me or something?

"Great!" I said trying to be enthusiastic. "I'm really interested in photography. Maybe we can do a photo shoot." I stated hinting that this was probably then only thing that we'd both actually agree on that includes both of us having to work. She smiled brightly at me and nodded.

"That is an awesome idea."
