Sophia's pov:

I walked into school, Mess it up by Gracie Abrams playing in my headphones.

The bell rang and i walked to class.

I saw some guys sitting in the back corner, laughing and pointing at some girls.

I noticed my best friend Joy sitting there.

She noticed me and her face lit up.

"Hey!" She said.

"Hi!" I replied.

I took off my headphones.

She ran her hands through her long brown hair and smiled, exposing her braces.

"Woah- When did you get braces?" I asked.

"Yesterday!" She replied.

"They look good!" I said.

"They hurt so bad." She groaned.

I laughed.

"Not funny, all the food in my system right now is yoghurt. And i ran out of maple syrup and strawberry this morning so i had to chomp down on sour dry yoghurt." She complained.

"Dry?" I said, taking some stuff out of my bag.

"Yeah yknow when like something just feels dry in ur mouth?" She asked.

"Ew.. Also, there's is more un-solid foods then yoghurt." I replied.

"Yeah i know but soup is overrated and my sister ate all the ice cream." She said.

"Okay first of all, soup is underrated, soups amazing and second of all, just buy more ice cream. Also, mashed potatoes, spinach a la creme or whatever its called, yeah thats really all i know."

She laughed.

"Hey is it true ur dating James?" One of the guys asked her.

"Dude no ew." She replied.

"Jeez." He said.

I laughed at him.

"You can't laugh dude you obviously like Miguel." He added.

"Dude what!?" I said.

"You and Miguel so obviously like eachother." He replied.

"Miguel is careless, rude, annoying and weird so I don't like him, thank you very much." He said.

"Yeah yeah." He nodded sarcastically.

"Leave her alone." Joy said.

"Alright fine James' girlfriend." He replied.

She slapped his arm and he turned back around.

"Ugh teenage guys are the worst." I said.

"Not all of them." She replied.

That's the difference between me and Joy. She's always had this thing for guys. She's always loved them, only saw the good in them. Which really isn't alot but she saw it. I on the other hand am disgusted by them. They never show respect. Or.. Atleast not towards me. They think im ugly and weird because of my interests. I find them weird too.

I raised my eyebrows as if i was saying 'sure' sarcastically.

"Trust me, the right guy will come for you." She said.

"And if he doesn't, you'll buy some cats." She added, smiling.

I laughed. "Okay Rory Gilmore."

"What?" She asked.

"Rory said that to Paris in Gilmore girls." I said.

"You know I don't watch that." She said.

"Yeah i know, still wanted to say it." I replied.

"Alright class quiet down!" The teacher yelled.

I turned towords the front of the class and opened my textbook.

I started writing what the teacher was explaining while Joy next to me was just sitting there, looking at her nails.

A few lessons later we were in English.

Our teacher was highkey kinda weird.

"Hey sir have you watched gilmore girls?" Joy asked him.

"Gilmore girls?" He asked.

She nodded.

"Yeah, when it first came out, I haven't seen all seasons tho." He said.

We laughed.

"Sophia Hansley to the principals office." The speakers called out.

"Huh?" I asked.

"Why would you need to go there?" Joy asked.

The teacher waved in a way that instructed me to go.

I stood up, threw my bag around my shoulder and walked out of class.

Why would i have to go to the principals office? Im a good kid.

I get good grades, don't vape or smoke or whatever, I don't act out and do weird stuff.

I walked into the office and sat down infront of the principal.

"Uhm hello sir." I said.

"Hello Sophia." He replied.

"Why am i here?" I asked.

"You're failing math." He said.

I nodded, its true.

"You're getting good grades in all your subjects and past years you've gotten c's in math aswell. I don't know you since your a good kid but.. This isn't you." He said.

I nodded.

"Me and Mr. Finch talked and we've decided that you need a tutor." He added.

I nodded again.

"So uhm.. where do i find a tutor?" I asked.

"We have a tutoring program here at school where students can tutor for extra credit. I've chosen someone to tutor you." He said.

I nodded. Jeez i nod alot.

There was a knock on the door.

"Oh he's here now, although you may not like who i chose.."

I turned around.

"Hey Hansley."
