Her saving Grace

Chapter 6

The teacher was not here as yet,. so I was busy talking to Jasmine, when Carson and his friends walked in. I didn’t even remember that they were in my class. was even surprised that they were in AP biology. They didn’t seem like the type to get good grades. I kn w I was being judgemental, but I couldn’t help it.

Thankfully, Carson didn’t seem to notice me as he ras caught up in a conversation with his friends. I turned back in front of me as he and his friends sit behind us. The teacher came after that and started her lesson.

During the middle of the lesson, I felt a light tap on my shoulder. When I turned around, I saw that it was one of the twin. I looked closely at him for a second and noticed that it was Jayden. I raised my eyebrow at him as he grinned at me. “What is it?” I asked.

“Is it true that you knocked out my pal here with a ball?” He asked, his finger pointing in the direction of Carson, who was glaring at him.

“As I told you before, she didn’t knock me out.” Ca son cut in, but Jayden ignored him. He looked at me awaiting my response.

I looked around at the teacher, who had his back tLrned to us writing something on the blackboard, before facing Jayden again. “Leave me alone and don’t get me in trouble.” I hissed in a whisper.

“Ooh, she’s a feisty one.” Jordan said from his seat and all the boys laughed at his comment.

I rolled my eyes at their behaviour. “I don’t have time for your games.” I said and turned back around in my seat. Jasmine raised her eyebrows at me, as if to ask ‘what was that about?’. I mouthed ‘I’ll tell you about it later’ and she nodded and went back to her work. Ignoring the bickering and snickers behind me, I went back to my work as well. They were used to disrupting classes and getting detention almost everyday. As for me, I hope I don’t see another detention room for the rest of my school year.

At the end of the day, I was at my locker, when Kevin and Lucas walked up to me.
