It had been a week after I screamed at Imani like that and she hasn't spoken to me since and I haven't seen her in her window either. I was started to feel really bad.

I was in Chemistry when an announcement came on:

"May all senior students report to the auditorium."

The teachers looked confused as well but nonetheless we all went to the auditorium. I found the guys and sat with them.

"Do you know what this is for?" Cedric asked. I shook my head. Imani came out and she had a paper in her hand.

She put on reading glasses, "If I say your name stand up please."

She then went down a huge list of names. I stopped counting when she named 50 kids but I knew she named Lydia. She didn't name any of the guys though.

After she finished she took off her glasses "Those of you who are standing all have been suspended for two weeks" everyone was in shock

She continued, "There is a strict no bullying and no harassment policy at this school. As an institution with a strong foundation I see that the betterment of our students rely in such reinforcement."

She pointed to the door "On your way out there are student handbooks. I expect every suspended student to take one and study it. As there will be a 100 question test on it after you return. Anyone who scores lower than 85 percent will go through further disciplinary action."

Oh my goodness, my wife is literally the best person on this earth.

"Until then, see you in two weeks, the busses are waiting outside. If anyone has any questions regarding the suspension, your parent can email me directly." The students complained as they left.

Once the auditorium was damn near empty she said "The remaining students may return to their class." Then she walked off the stage. I wanted to cry.

•••

I walked in the house and I heard "Lydia how the hell did you get suspended for bullying."

I went to the living room and I saw my father scolding her while Mrs. Clark listened.

"India finally you're home. I'm about to email your principal, there is no reason she should've suspended you two." I raised my eyebrow "I didn't get suspended."

Everyone looked at me and I said "I was the one everyone was bullying, why would I get suspended."

Lydia looked pissed "You bitch. You're in kahoots with that snarky pretentious woman. That's why dad. She gave that woman random names and everyone got suspended."

Mrs Clark then added, "I don't actually think India had much to do with it. I thought that Lydia was starting stuff at school but it must've gotten big enough that the principal started an investigation. She has cameras all over the school. I'm sure it only took her a few days to go through the footage and find evidence."

I really liked Mrs. Clark, she's amazing. "Well Lydia. You're still grounded so go to your room and read that handbook."

Mrs. Clark motioned her upstairs and Lydia went upstairs angrily.

"Can I go for a walk." They let me.

I left and went to her house. I knocked and she opened the door. "May I come in?" She nodded and I walked in.

She had stacks of papers everywhere "Don't mind the suspension paperwork."

We sat on her couch and I said, "Thank you...when I yelled at you I assumed you heard me but you didn't hear me, you listened to me. I can't thank you enough." My eyes watered.

She sighed softly, "I'm sorry I didn't realize the bullying earlier." I shook my head "You're perfect." We made intense eye contact.

I glanced down to her lips but then I scooted away while clearing my throat. She hmm'd, "You tried to kiss me again."

I shook my head and said "Nope. I didn't, I tried not to kiss you, as you see." She rolled her eyes with a soft smile.

"Maybe if you did let me kiss you...just once, I would stop trying." She sighed softly "I got my doctorate at 24 You know I'm not a dumbass right?" I just let out a soft sigh

"Thank you for everything" I hugged her and held her tightly. She wrapped her arms around me.

She pulled back and I looked at her lips. "I should go." I said softly. "You can have one kiss-" I kissed her.

I pulled her onto my lap without breaking the kiss. I held the back of her neck gently and while my other arm wrapped around her waist. She put her hand on my stomach and I pulled back.

She was taking deep breaths "What the hell..." she looked confused "Don't you need air?" I smiled softly "I'm a singer."

She was still taking deep breaths "You got your kiss, get out." I chuckled softly. When I laughed I saw her eyes go down.

I then remembered that her hand was on my stomach. I held her hand and held it on my stomach "Yes...those are my abs. You'll see them soon."

She blushed and looked away "Ok. Goodnight India."

I grinned. "Thank you Imani" She gave a soft nod and I left. I really love this chase.
