hope's pov
monday, november 3rd

the monday after halloween, everybody that went to a party was sulking around the school. i really couldn't blame them.

as i was walking to lunch, i felt someone grab my arm, pulling me into a nearby storage closet.

"what the fuck?" i questioned, my eyes landing on jay gray.

"hi, baby." she gave a smile.

"don't fucking call me that." i said harshly, pulling my arm out of her grasp.

"you let billie call you it; why can't i?" she pouted.

"because i actually like billie," i rolled my eyes. "now, why the fuck did you drag me in here?"

"look, i'm sorry about friday; the truth is, i had a little bit to drink, and i wasn't thinking straight. in all honesty though, hope, you're cute as hell and you're feisty, which is hot. i want you. you should stop whatever it is that you have with billie and be with me instead."

i couldn't help but laugh as she finished talking. "are you stupid? why would i stop what i have with a genuinely amazing, sweet, and just all around great person, to be with a lying, two-faced snake? i mean, seriously, make it make sense, because i don't get it."

she started fuming but i ignored her, rolling my eyes as i pushed past her, exiting the storage closet.

"you're gonna regret this!" she called out after me. i just raised my middle finger to her, continuing to walk down the hallway because i don't have the time nor energy to deal with her today.

i made it to the cafeteria, sitting at my usual table. billie had started sitting here sometime last week, so there was now me, her, kaiden, devon, and lexi sitting there. lexi decided not to come to school today though.

i sat beside billie, smiling at her. "hi, baby."

"baby?" she raised a brow, a smile making it's way to her face. "that's new."

i shrugged, a small blush coming to my face. "is that okay?"

"yeah, of course, mama." she grinned.

i looked to the left of her, noticing a guy i've never seen before. he had several tattoos placed around his face and on his neck. his hair was blue, like billie's, though his was darker. he looked kinda intimidating, but when he smiled at me, all the fear i had disappeared.

"who's this?" i asked billie.

"right, this is jahseh, but you can just call him jah!" she told me, obviously excited. "he's my best friend and he just came back."

he extended his hand. "'sup?"

i placed my hand in his, shaking it. "i'm hope, nice to meet you."
