Whores, Guys, and Me by Kelly Bui (book series for 10 year olds txt) 📕

"My name is Jordan Bancroft. I'm 17 years old and I like to play basketball, play my guitar, swim, and build things out of wood when I'm bored." He said with a smile. All the girls' eyes lit up when he said he liked to swim and they all gawked once more. He winked at them, once again, teasing them and causing their hearts to "melt". It was now my turn to introduce myself. 

"My name is Skyler Bancroft. I'm 17 years old and I like to draw, swim, and play my guitar." The guys' eyes lit up too when I said I like to swim as well. I rolled my eyes at them and waved causing them to chuckle a little. 

"Thank you Jordan and Skyler. You may return to your seats again." We walked back to our seats and sat down looking at each other like this school wasn't that bad. Boy, were we wrong. We just didn't know it yet. "Now class please partner up and read pages 231-235 together please. After you both finish, please talk about how the author used their Figurative Language." When she said partner, Jordan and I immediately looked at each other. We smiled and he scootched his desk over to mine when the teacher finished talking. We worked and did as told but what bothered me was Mr Desperate kept staring at me the entire period. 

We finished and right as soon as the bell rang, too. This was one of the periods where we had to part ways. I went to FACS while he went to Gym. I sat down at a table away from the other people and by a window so I could look down at the soccer field, football field, and track. I saw Jordan so I texted his phone and told him to look up. He always had his phone. He reached into his pocket and read the message. Then he looked up like the text told him to, and he finally found me then waved. Apparently, he already made some friends. They walked over to him and asked him a question. He answered and pointed at me. The guys found me and waved at me. I waved back smiling. Suddenly, the chair right next to me screeched and made my attention turn to it. It was Aaron. 

"What do you want, Mr Desperate?" I asked with an annoyed tone.

"Wow, that a way to treat your FACS partner?"

"Slow your roll there and keep Desperate Junior in your pants. As much as you want to be my partner, I'll work alone thank you very much." I stood up and grabbed my stuff. I looked around for a new seat but all of them were taken. I plopped back down on my chair and put my stuff back down. "Dammit..." Aaron inhaled sharply.

"Ooo, looks like you're stuck with me." He laughed. I rolled my eyes again and looked out the window. Jordan's class was already running around the track. This was going to be a long class...
