Wednesday

Being stuck in detention in my Biology class definitely wasn't the way I wanted to spend my time.

At least I wasn't the only one stuck in detention. Grayson and Cameron were also in here with me. In fact, they were the reason why we were in this mess.

Cameron and Grayson thought it was a good idea to ditch, but how did I get caught?

I was coming from the restroom and they stopped to talk to me, so when the teacher came out, she thought I was ditching too.

I draw little pictures on the blank note paper, waiting to pass some time. I stop when the teacher smacks a ruler on the desk.

"Miss. LaMont, I expected more from you. You were a straight 'A' student, what happened to you?"

Ethan fucking Dolan is what happened.

I'm about to say something, when Grayson interupts me.

"Malia has nothing to do with what Cameron and I were doing, it may look like it, but I can assure you that she had nothing to do with what we were doing. She was just asking us what we were doing"

She ignores him and continues on.

"Your grades have dropped tremendously, your failing two classes, mathematics and my class. Is there any problems at home or something?"

"Wait, what? I've turned in everything for your class"

"Not completely. You've missed a few days of school, and in those days, I had assigned work, work that you have never came and asked about"

Jesus, I go from an 'A' to an 'F' in a matter of days, but when I turn in my work, my grades hardly go up.

The teacher sighs and shakes her head and she puts away the papers and files them.

"Malia, you do want to go to college right? Your freshman and sophomore year you were in a program that prepares you to go into college, why did you exit the program?"

Honestly, I felt pressured to go to college because of my mom. She wants me to go, and I didn't at first, but now? I've been reconsidering it.

"I had a lot on my mind" I wasn't going to talk about 'my plan' in front of Grayson and Cameron. This was something I would have prefered to keep a secret.

She looks at the clock and turns to me.

"Miss. LaMont, you are free to go, since you did not participate in this act. As for you two, Mr. Dolan and Mr. Dallas, you will stay another half hour"

Grayson slumps back in his seat and Cameron puts his head on the desk. I pack up my things and whisper in Grayson's ear.

"I'll wait for you guys" He flinches a bit, but then quickly turns around.

"No, just go Mal. I'll walk home with Cam"

I shake my head and exit the classroom. I mean, it's the least I can do. Grayson got me out of detention...well kinda.

I walk to my blue jeep and smile. I swear this jeep was fucking amazing.

I'm about to get in when someone yells my name out. Someone fucking familiar.

"Malia, can we talk?"

Fuck my life.

When I turn around I'm faced with Ethan. Fuck he looked hot. He was wearing a black muscle shirt, blue jeans, his black and white hightop vans. His hair was messy, and he had on his black earrings.
