Y/N POV

"Y/N!" I hear Jessica yell out. "Where the hell is your brother?" She asks as I turn to put my attention on her and taking it off of Zach and Marcus. 

"I don't know, Jess." I respond quite puzzled. 

"You don't know? You're his sister how do you not know?" She is clearly stressed out about something and I don't know how I want to respond to that right now. 

"He's probably just skipping first, sleeping in." I hear Zach speak from the chair behind me. 

"Did he ride with you guys today?" She keeps questioning. 

"No." Zach and I reply at the same time.

'"So, where is he? Marcus?" Marcus looks up from his bag and just shrugs. 

"Did you see him last night?" I was kind of worried about Jess because miss girl seems like she is going through it but I also wanted her to calm down. 

"Yeah, yeah, he was at practice." Zach says 

"Why won't he answer my calls or texts?" 

"I'm sure he'll be there." Marcus states 

"Oh, you're sure. Thanks, Marcus." She finishes sarcastically. "Mr. Porter wants to see me now. He left a call slip in my homeroom." Jess explains to us. I just look at her in confusion.

"Miss. Davis, don't you have a class to get to?" I hear the teacher speak. 

"Tell him I need to talk to him. Now." She makes eye contact with Clay before walking out. "What you listening to Clay?" She questions him before hearing another 'Miss. Davis' from the teacher and finally walks out. 

As she is walking out I look at the boys with a puzzled face before grabbing a pencil out of my bag. 


~I was at Monet's doing some school work and heard some giggling next to me. I look up to see who it is, out of curiosity, and see Hannah and Jessica talking about some kid that was looking at them. Suddenly Jess turned and made eye contact with me, I looked back down at my papers quickly before I heard her speak up. 

"Maybe he is looking at Y/N" She brings up, I barely even knew what was going on. 

"Huh?!" I turn my head back up to see Hannah and Jess looking at me kind of giggling. 

"Come here." Hannah waves me over, I quickly put my stuff in my bag and headed over to them.

I look to the boy who was looking our way, occasionally, and started speaking "He's checking you out." 

"He's checking you out" Hannah looks at me as I sit down. 

"No, you, and he's cute." Jess replies.

"He's alone." Hannah points out, as if that had to do with anything. 

"So?" Jessica responds.

"So that means he doesn't have any friends. That's weird." Hannah tries to explain.

"You guys didn't have any friends two weeks ago." I state. 

We walked up to him and sat with him, I tried to protest but it was fine, I guess. Hannah and Jess sat in front of him, while I sat beside him trying not to be as awkward as possible.

"Um.. Hey" The bleach-haired boy said as he looked at the three of us, kind of awkwardly. 

"Hey" We all said, until Jessica started to speak up.
