After 4th
period Ava made her way to the Library. She and Jay got most of the work done,
but didn’t get to finish and of course it was due the next day.
“So, you have
a computer at home?” Jay asked.
“Yeah”
she answered a little worried where this might be going.
“Well I guess
we will have to finish this at your place.” Jay said leaning back a putting his arms behind his head.
“No!” Ava almost screamed. “I mean I have
to ask my Aunt first.”
“Okay so call
her and ask.”
“I..I have to
go the bathroom.” She stuttered.
As he watched her run
out Jay thought, That chic is weird.
Ava ran out the library
door. Once outside she tried to calm down.
“Okay, its fine.” She dialed the number.
“Hello”
her aunt answered sounding tired.
“Aunt Maggie
are you okay?” Ava asked a little worried.
“Oh, yes sweetie
I’m fine. Seth is just taking a toll on me.”
“I’m sorry. Maybe I should try to find a place for him while I’m at school.”
“No sweetie we
are fine don’t you worry any.” Her aunt answered quickly trying to make her feel better.
“Aunt Maggie I hate to ask this but do you think you and Seth could go out for a while after school? I have this project due tomorrow. It
involves a partner and a computer.”
“Ava its fine you know I love Seth. But sweetie you know
you can’t hide this forever.” Maggie said lovingly.
“I know Aunt Maggie just until I’m settled in here.” Ava didn’t want to get into
this right now.
“Okay, will 2
hours be long enough for you to get your work done or do you need longer?”
“No 2 hours will
be more than enough thank you. I don’t know what we would do with out you,” Ava said honestly.
“Your welcome
sweetie I’ll see you tonight.”
“Okay bye and
kiss Seth for me.”
“I will bye bye.”
Ava breathed a sigh
of relief, walked back into the library and sat beside Jay.
“You alright
you were in the washroom long enough.” He said with another smirk as she
sat down.
“You’re
so tacky, I called my Aunt in the hall. She gave us an hour and a half after
school.”
“What’s
her deal with the time? She keep you on a leash or something?”
“You don’t
know my aunt you don’t even know me so why don’t you just shut up.”
Ava said harshly.
“Whatever, meet
me in the parking lot and I’ll give you a ride to your house so we are get this over with.”
“No I’ll drive myself and you can follow me there.”
Ava replied a little annoyed.
“Whatever, just
hurry up I’m not spending my night on school shit. If I didn’t need
this to graduate I wouldn’t even be doing this.” Jay said with a
shrug.
“I guess Paige
was right about you.” Ava said trying to annoy him now.
“What did queenie tell you about me?” Jay yelled.
“We are in a
library, be quiet. She just said you were trouble.” Ava answered.
“Well she was
right about that,” Jay said with a smirk. “What are you going to
be Paige’s newest lapdog?”
Before she could reply
he was walking away. “I’m so not going to be his partner anymore,” Ava fumed.
Jay walked up to Alex’s
locker and kissed her neck.
“Hey, so what
are we doing tonight?” Alex asked Jay
“I got stuff
after school. I’ll come over when I’m done,” Jay answered.
“What stuff?”
“Don’t
give me any shit Alex,” Jay said and walked away.
Alex watched him walk down the hall. Something has been going on with him. He has been acting strange. Well I’ll just have to find out what his problem is, Alex thought to herself.
