I arrived at school 10 mins early, believe me it was not intentional. I heard faint mumbling at the side and curiosity got the best of me, I couldn't believe what I saw when I got there some guy duct taped to the flag naked with the world asshole written on his chest in lipstick and people were just standing round looking. I don't know what came over me but I decided to help. Seeing as I was at the back of the crowd it would be hard for me to get through.
"Hey! Disperse now!" I yell.
I saw people turn around to see who it was and as soon as they saw it was me, they started to scatter like cockroaches. The boy looked up shocked, I just got my switchblade cut him down and walked away.
*4 lessons later*
He walked in late, everyone's eyes shut up to look at him, everyone except me, I wasn't interested. The only thing I wanted was for this bitch to stop talking so I could get some lunch. I was hungry as shit and this bitch wanna talk about the circumference of a sphere.
"Ok class this our new student Craig, I want you to make him all feel welcome. Craig you can take a seat at the back there" miss Graham said. This bitch of course she would suggest he sit here.
I hear his footsteps then movement beside me as his Air Jordan III retros in all black come into view. "Excuse me is this your bag?"
I still don't look up "yeah." I mumble and quickly move my bag. I really wasn't interested in conversation especially since I knew what he was going to say, might as well speed things up.
"So I'm Craig and you are?"
"Trying to sleep" I say and turn my head.
"That's an interesting name, I've never heard that one before."
"Haha you're so funny, if I tell you my name will you let me sleep?"
"That sounds like a deal"he says.
"My name's crystal if you really must know"
"Hmm Crystal I like that."
"Thank you, now shush you're cutting into my nap time"
"Fine, I'll let you sleep for now."
"Good" and with that I was out like a light.
(30 minutes later)
(Bell rings)
I wake up to the sound of my salvation, picked up my bag and ran out of there as fast as I could.
When I got into the busy hallway I heard somebody calling me but I didn't stop, I just continued to my destination.
I got to the canteen and immediately spotted who I was looking for and made my way over to our table.
"Did you get it?" I ask
"Damn I can't get a hello first?" He ask incredulously.
"Nigga, you know damn well I did not eat breakfast and I'm hungry as fuck and you still wasting time? Nigga if you don't give me my pizza right now!"
"Aight, chill!" He says and gets my pizza from behind his back.
"Thank you, Eric." I say sweetly.
In the middle of taking my first bite, what do I see for the second time today? You guessed it, Air Jordan III retros in all black. What does this nigga want?!
I look up at him properly for the first time all day and damn was he fine! Waves, body, tatts and swag on a trillion. I knew he would have swag when I noticed the j's but damn he just ambushed me looking all sexy and shit. I'm not gonna let him know that though.
"Hi, I'm Craig, I was in your last class"
"And that concerns me because?"
"You're my school guide for this year"
"No the hell I ain't!"
"Not according to Miss Graham, she said I have to follow you around until I'm situated."
Of course she would volunteer me, I swear I'm gonna slap her.
"Fine, lemme see your schedule"
Ugh, just my luck this nigga has all my classes.
"It looks like you have the same schedule as me so we'll be together all day cool?"
"Sounds like a plan shawty"
"Uh huh"
"So can I sit down?"
"It's a free country"
During our conversation I didn't notice the mug on Eric's face.
"What's up with you?" I say when I finally notice his face.
"Nothing, just thinking."
"About what?"
"Nothing important."
"Mmhmm, that's why your squeezing that pizza to death right?"
"What?" He asks confused.
I just nod towards the pizza.
He notices what he's doing and cleans up his mess cursing. Just at that moment Gabrielle Martinez comes over.
"Heyyy, Eric." She says in her high pitched squeaky voice.
"Heyyy, Eric." I mock her.
"Oh hey, Ice." She says and rolls her eyes.
"Gab." I say bluntly.
"Anyway, I just came over to invite Eric to the house party I'm hosting tonight. I really hope you can make it, oh and don't forget to bring your new friend." She says with her slutty hands all over Craig.
"I'll see if I can make it." Eric says
"Alright, bye now."
(Bell rings)
I put my pizza in the box for later cause thanks to all these distractions I only got one slice.
"Cryssy I'm heading out now but I'm coming over later aight?" Eric whispers in my ear.
"Ok will you talk to me then?"
"Like I said before nothing's wrong. I'll see you later." He hugs me to which I don't respond. He kisses me on the cheek then walks away.
"Can we go to class now, I don't want to be late twice on my first day" Craig says and I just remember that he's here.
"Well I need to make a stop at my locker first then we can go to class. Make sure you keep up."
"Why would I need to keep u-"! I interrupt him by grabbing his hand and pulling him into the crowded hallway.
After a 2 minute struggle to get through the hallway, we reach the stairs leading to my locker. My locker is located on a separate floor from everyone else's cause it's too big to fit in with the others, there's only one other locker like mine and no one owns it.
"Woah" he says in shock.
"What?"
"Nothing, just didn't expect your locker to be so huge."
"It's not supposed to be but I guess some janitor made a mistake one time and I benefited from it" I say while putting the box in my locker.
"Cool"
"Yeah, so do you need to go to your locker or nah?"
"Shit we can go to class right now, I'll just figure out where my locker is later"
"What locker is it?" I sigh.
"It says 302"
"Well you're in luck, you just received the only other locker like mine and it's right here so hurry up"
"Only if you say please" he smirks.
"Please don't make me have to kick your ass" I say with an evil smile.
"I guess that'll have to do for now. Now let's go learn some shit." He says pulling a dumb face.
I giggle.
"Ah so the ice queen smiles and giggles."
My face drops instantly.
"I did not."
"But you did."
"I don't smile."
"You just did."
"We're not having this argument, we're going to class."
