"Has everyone got their permission slips!" Mr Miller called over the rowdy class

He didn't receive much of an answer as everyone was too invested in their own conversations. I felt bad for him. He was my favourite teacher as he didn't yell very much and always tried his hardest to connect with every student. Everyone liked him but because he was so laid back meant that he would often be ignored and not many students would listen to him.

I saw him looking around the class in hope for an answer. Out of sympathy for the guy, I pulled out my permission slip and held it up just as he looked at me. He smiled at me and nodded in gratitude. I put the slip back in my bag and sat back in my seat at the back of the class silently.

"Alright guys, everybody take your seats! I need to tell you all who your partner is!" That was what got everybody to shut up as the class finally started to sit down and pay attention.

The loud and very rude boys at the back of the room finally began quieting down from their loud laughs. Grayson fist bumped Daniel while laughing and they all slowly started to look at the teacher. Grayson, the rudest and meanest one, looked up at me and caught my gaze. I stared for a second longer before we both looked at Mr Miller.

"Alright, just like every year the partnering is one girl and one boy-" he explained earning loud groans "I know, I know, I know you all hate it but I don't make the rules" he held up his hands before grabbing a clip board with a piece of paper on it "alright so up first issss....Carley and Steven"

They both didn't seem to care that much about who their partner was. Carley whispered something to her friends which made them all start giggling but that was it really.

Sir continued to call out names but I was really only interested with who my partner was. I was hoping it wasn't anyone from the group of boys across the room from me. They were all the 'bad kids' and they were so horrible to people. They basically thought it was cool to be mean and rude to any student that walked past.

Thankfully I wasn't bullied by them but I knew of a few kids that were. They still picked on me like any other kid in our grade though. It was mainly just them teasing me about how quiet I was and how I didn't really have any friends (or at least any close ones) and the fact that I didn't drink or did anything bad. I just liked to follow the rules, I always overthink things so it just gives me a piece of mind if I just do things that I'm supposed too, was that really a bad thing?

They were all stupidly attractive and they all had this charm about them that got under every girls skin but they were also ridiculously mean and could so easily manipulate any person they wanted to manipulate. I tried my best to stay away from them, they were all bad news.

Grayson was probably the worst one out of them all. He skips many of his classes and only ever shows up when he's about to get kicked out of the school. He always party's and has a new girlfriend every week. I don't know what girls see in him or any of them really. I don't know why they can't see that they are just girls he likes to fuck and use for his own games. The amount of times he had manipulated poor girls to send him nude photos of themselves and he would send to everyone was actually sad. I had no clue why he wasn't kicked out of the school a long time ago.

I knew why girls had a thing for him, he was beautiful. And he knew it. He had the classic smile that would make girls fall to their knees. He had the dress sense and hair that was so bouncy. He had the wink that would make all the girls in the halls blush and shield their faces. He had done his tricks on me a few times but he never tried to fully get with me, thankfully. It did confuse me though as every girl he decided to hit on, he would go all the way with (up until he got what he wanted from them; photos of them that would destroy their image) but for some reason with me he gave up. Maybe he saw that what he was trying to do wasn't going to work and got bored. Hopefully that's the reason because I really didn't like him. It did confuse me though, it really did.
