Tutor
~Adam~
"Mr.Davison your grades are inexcusable, it's simply disgraceful," My mentor and literature teacher scolded, putting her head in her hands out of frustration.
"So what" I exclaimed, slumping into my chair.
"So what! Are you serious, you might not understand but these grades are important," She interjected.
"Look Mrs.Potts, I know your trying to help me, and I get your concern. But there's so many other important things to me, than these classes," I replied.
"I know what your going through Adam, your the star football player, everyone praises you. Your popular, and you think that all the lessons and classes are pointless," Mrs.Potts began.
"However, your going to have to realize that you may not always be the star, I mean it's certainly not impossible. But have you ever thought about what your going to do if you don't become famous and rich football player?" She explained.
"I never really thought about that," I frowned a bit.
"Exactly, that's why you need to start to pay attention, and be a good student."
"But how? Like I said there's so many other things I have to worry about, I don't know if I can deal with something else," I fretted.
"I'm aware of that, that's why the principal, and your parents and I, have decided the best option is for you is to have a tutor," she stated.
"What, there's no way," I doubted.
"Awe yes we knew you wouldn't agree, that's why we've all also decided that if you don't get your grades up by the end of the semester, you will be kicked off of the football team," she responded sternly.
My eyes went wide, "No you can't do that, The championship game is coming up, I absolutely can't be kicked off the team!" I yelled.
"Well then, I guess you're just going to have to go to that tutor and get your grades up," she declared.
I groaned, "Fine, I'll go to the stupid tutor," I huffed.
"Great, now go to the library after school, to meet up with them," she cheered.
"What exactly is this persons name?" I asked.
"Her name is Belle Rose, she's an excellent student, and should be able to help you," Mrs.Potts answered.
"Who?" My eyebrows furrowed.
~Merida~
I wiped the sweat off my forehead as I headed outside of the school, I had just got done with archery practice. I was just wearing some gray sweatpants, and a green baggy shirt, and my hair was messily thrown up into a ponytail.
At this point all I wanted was to go home and change into some non-sweaty clothes.
As I was about to hop onto my skateboard, I was suddenly stopped.
"Merida!" I heard someone call my name, I turned around and saw Hiccup running towards me. Oh shit, why is he coming to me, this is unusual, just don't panic Merida, act cool.
"Hey Hiccup," I said with a nervous smile. "Hi Mer," He replied slightly out of breath from running.
"What ya need" I asked. "Oh yeah, you're coming with me to hang out," Hiccup answered.
My eyes grew wide, "Wait what?" I surprisingly asked.
"Can't you hear, we're gonna go hang out, and do something," He responded in a duh tone.
"So like right now," I said with slight panic in my voice.
"Yeah, I have my car, it'll be fun," He exclaimed.
"Um... as nice as that sounds, my parents don't know, they'll worry."
"Oh, I already have that covered, I told my parents we were hanging out, and they told your parents," He explained.
Oh no, now my parents think that there's... something going on between Hiccup and I, great.
"Uh well, I'm not really ready to go out," I said gesturing to myself.
Hiccups eyebrows furrowed. "What are you talking about, you look great," Hiccup chuckled out of confusion.
Wait is he for real? He's lying, he has to be. I mean he doesn't look like he's lying, but still.
"Oh my god, just come on," Hiccup said starting to walk towards his car.
I finally gave up, and just decided to comply. I mean it will be really fun most likely, and I get to hang out with Hiccup.
I then ran and caught up with him. I know it's probably completely crazy to go out in public with a totally hot guy. When I look like I had just ran a marathon.
But, I really like Hiccup, and I wanna hang out with him, so it's worth it.
~Belle~
"Wait so your telling me, you're tutoring Adam, the best football player on the team, and one of the most popular people in the school," My bestfriend Thiana said out of surprised confusion, as she fixed her glasses. I just call her 'Tooth' cause when we first met, she knocked someone's tooth out, for messing with me, and we've been bestfriends since.
We were currently sitting in the library, waiting for my "student" I guess you could call it. Tooth and I always came to the library after school, we would usually converse over the recent books we were reading, and drink tea.
"Yep, I guess I am," I said with a little nervousness in my voice.
"Hey don't worry you'll be fine," Tooth encouraged.
"I don't know, I mean you know how I am. I'm a shy, socially inept person. If I'm not even really able to carry on an non-awkward conversation with any normal person. Then how do you expect me to speak to one of the most popular guys in school, let alone teach him," I babbled on worryingly.
Tooth then grabbed my shoulders firmly, looking at me with a stern look. "Belle, don't you dare doubt yourself. You can do this, I know you can. I know you're shy, but I also know that you are a confident, smart woman, that can and will help the biggest jock in the school, because I know you're more than capable of that." I smiled, and gave her a quick hug.
"Thanks Tooth, that's helps a lot, but that still doesn't mean I'm not a bit anxious," I explained.
"Well of course you are, but it's all about not showing your fear. How is Adam supposed to take you seriously, if he knows that you're scared and nervous," She replied.
"You're absolutely right, I know what to do now. Thank you so much Tooth," I smiled.
"Hey it's really no big deal, I'm always here for you," She smiled back warmly. She then looked over my shoulder, and her eyes grew wide, "Um on second thought, I'm going to leave," Tooth said getting up, grabbing her rainbow bag.
"Wait why?" I asked. She then pointed behind me, I turned around, and my eyes did too go wide.
There he was, The Beast himself, I had only seen him as he walked passed by in the halls, but now he's actually coming towards me.
I looked around in panic, until I spotted Tooth about to turn the corner. She locked eyes with me, and gave me a reassuring smile, and a thumbs up, and then walked out of the library.
I took a deep breath, and calmed myself down. Okay remember confidence, no fear.
By the time Adam took a seat next to me, I was as self-assured as I could be.
"So you're Belle right," He asked.
"Yep, that's me, I already know who you are," I responded.
There was a bit of silence.
"Well let's get started," I finally spoke up.
"Whatever," He replied slumping a little into his chair.
---
It had been about 30 minutes, and so far I was just explaining to him, what we he needed to learn, and he seemed to be kind of listening, but at the same dozing off, obviously bored out of his mind. I have to admit, I was quite bored myself, I mean I already knew all the stuff, I was teaching him.
"So, what do you like to do for fun?" Adam suddenly asked.
"Huh, what do you mean by that?" I asked, being pulled away from my teaching.
"Like what do you do outside of school, what's something that you enjoy, and makes you happy," He explained.
"Well that's kind of personal question, don't you think?" I asserted.
"No, not really, I mean it's just something you like to do, it's not like I'm asking for your address," He reasoned.
"I guess you're right, but still I'm just you're tutor, and you're my student. I'm supposed to be teaching you, not telling you about my life. Plus, even if I did tell you, you wouldn't understand," I implied.
His eyebrow raised at the last part, "What do you mean, I wouldn't understand?" He questioned.
I thought for a few seconds.
"Well let's face it Adam, we're two completely different people. You're this popular football player, that everyone knows and praises. And I'm just a shy girl, that like's books. We are just bound not to understand each other," I replied.
His face seemed to sadden a little, "So that's all you really think I am?" He muttered.
"Well I mean everyone thinks that's what you are," I replied quickly, but then regretted it, seeing the sadness, and realization wash over his face.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean-" I began but was cut off.
"No it's fine, thank you, no one has ever told me that before," Adam said with a little smile.
"Umm, what?" My eyebrows furrowed.
"I need you to take me to where you like to have fun," He said.
"Again, what?" I asked very confused.
"I want to prove that I'm not just some popular jock, that is good at nothing but football," He explained.
"Um I still don't really know..." I fretted.
"No, I want to understand. You take me to where makes you happy, an I'll do the same for you," He said.
I chuckled in disbelief, but then my eyes locked with his, and when I saw the seriousness, and the determination in his eyes I shut up and realized he really does want this, and to prove himself.
"Okay, I'll take you," I sighed.
"Really?" He perked up.
"But under one condition, we need to keep studying, and you have to put 110% into it."
"Deal," He replied.
