(Ashley's Pov)

"You wanna ditch fourth hour and go back to my house?" Jerrit asked in a whisper.

"Sounds fun but I would rather not get caught."

"Hey. We didn't do anything but watch Titanic last time. It was my stupid brother and his one night stand that came in."

"I know. But still, I think Math is better than chilling at your house."

"How? Just give me one reason."

"Because I'm right next to you."

He smiled and snuck in a kiss when Mr. Markowitz wasn't looking. The bell rang and he sat down in the seat next to me. This was one of those classes where you picked where to sit instead of the teacher picking where you sat.

"So today we're writing essays." the teacher said.

"About?" I asked.

"About what life means to you. The faculty decided on this topic."

"Like when you mean that. Do you mean what's going on in our life or what are you talking about?" Abi asked.

A few people chuckled.

"What this means is, what is your purpose here on earth. What do you think your job here is? What can you do with this life? What is it that keeps you running? What does life mean to you?"

I understood and like a million ideas came into mind.

"This is a 4 page assignment. Front and back. This is due by the end of next week so get your ideas ready. It must be typed......." then I drained out the rest of the instructions. "....... This is a big assignment that Mr. Combs requested to be done. And no, Maddie you can't write big to make it seem like you wrote a lot." he instructed.

I laughed at that and she glared at me.

Class went by quickly because I spaced out what he was talking about and started on my assignment. It was 3/4 of the way done when the bell rang.

"Hey um Ashley. Could you come here for a moment." Mr. Markowitz asked.

I walked to his desk. Jerrit was already gone since his soccer buddies already took off with him. I knew he would be at the lunch table waiting for me.

"Yes?"

"Look. I know you're an excellent writer....... So I'm excusing you from the rest of the writing assignments till the end of the trimester which is a month away. Unless you want to keep writing." he offered.

"Thanks Steven. But I would rather do my work like the rest of the class. Thank you for your offer but I would like some practice before finals."

He nodded. "Alright. Thanks for staying. You can leave now."

I quietly left the room and bumped into Angel.

"Hey girl. You take forever you know." She smiled as we started walking to the cafeteria.

"Sorry."

"It's alright. Hey, have you seen the new teacher that replaced Matthews?"

I nodded. "He made me stay for like ten seconds to talk about my attitude."

"Well anyway, did you look at his face? Or even his tattoos?"

"Umm no?"

"Oh come on. That guy Mr. Baker is some fine piece of ass. He a work of art. If I weren't from the ghetto, I would be dressing in diamonds like these rich ass white girls to get his attention."

"He is hot. But don't tell Jerrit I said that."

"Exactly....... I wonder if he's into dark skinned girls?"

"I'll be sure to ask him that next time I see him."

We kept walking through the people and finally made our way to the lunchroom.

"Mmmm girl. You need to get your ass single again."

"Why?" I laughed.

"Cause Mr. Ocean Eyes is looking at you." she whispered.

I looked to Baker but he wasn't looking at me. Mr. Combs was talking to him but he glanced my way.

"I was the only one to speak out in his class." I whispered back.

"Oh you showed him the feisty side didn't you? Girl I would be playing hard to get if I were you."

"Angel. You know teacher and students shouldn't be in relationships right?"

"Hey. As long as nobody knows, we aight."

I shook my head. We sat down at the table and Jerrit instantly kissed up and down my neck.

I smiled and kept talking but I pushed him away when a smile on Angel's face appeared. She did a small quick wave to somebody across the lunchroom.

"Who are you waving to?" I asked sitting closer to her. Making the boys get away. We had the back table in the corner so we could talk about shit without being heard.

"Gillum." she replied.

"Why?"

She gave me a look and it clicked.

"Oh my god Angel. What the fuck?" I asked whispering.

"It happened once........ but it led me to more."

I shook my head. "Angel, you know he's a man whore."

"I know but that just makes him even more fine. It just says that he's good at sex. Hey, I'm the only one going to his house for tutoring from 5 to 6. I'm the only one. Besides, I would kill him if he gets into these other rich ass girls' pussies. He said I was his so I am his. We had this little chat yesterday after we finished, and girl, I think we got a clinger. I told him that finished having sex. But he made me stay and I actually got to know the real him. We went another round before his wife came home. I sat there in the room 'studying' while listening to him and his wife argue for 20 minutes straight. So he gots issues. Did you know she sleeps around on him. And that I'm the only one he slept around with. I feel special around him you know."

"Fuck he is hot." I replied.

"All the teachers here are hot. I mean look at Mr. Musto. And Mr. Bieber is looking hella fine today. What class do you have him for again?"

"Weights"

"What class do you have Musto?"

"Music" I said.

"Oh and then we have Smith and Baker for Art."

I spit out my water. "What?"

"Yeah they have two teachers in that class now."

I groaned and she giggled. "You'll be alright bitch. I got you."

"Thanks."

We sat and talked before my other friends Mckinsey, Jaden (gay), Jessica, and Karen came over.

The bell rang and we all got up. I had to go to music with Jaden.

"Come on sista." I said putting an arm around him even though he was taller.

"Sis. We are going to make you look smoking hot for next week's homecoming game."

I smiled. "Alright."

Musto unlocked the door and let us in. I went and grabbed my guitar and Jaden grabbed his.

"Remind my mom at 4 to come over to your house."

"When did you decide to come to my house?"

"I'm not."

I shook my head. "Just tell her that you're gay."

"Not yet."

"Jaden, if you don't. I will. It'll hurt more if you don't tell her now."

"I know."

"Alright. Good afternoon guys." Musto said coming in with a couple guitar books in hand.

"What are we playing for the concert?" I asked.

"Something I know you'll all like."
