Naomi Summers

"thanks again marcus" i said smiling

"no problem ma" he replied smiling as i turned around walking in my class to see my favorite teacher smiling and walking up to me

"no it's not like that miss trish" i said laughing making my way to my seat

"hmm you sure?" she said making a questionable face

"yes i'm sure, we just met today besides he is a junior & plays football..ain't no way he's single" i said putting my bag down

"you want me to find out?" she said smiling

"girl no i'm perfectly fine by myself" i said taking a sip of my apple juice

"oh yeah? how about when you called me the other day to say that you wanted to beat that girl up?" she said raising her eyebrow

"woahhh chill" i said laughing as she joined in

"no but seriously i'd rather be single sophomore year cause last year was not good" i said putting my apple juice down

"yeah i know thats right, how is he?" she asked me

"who?? jaylen?? girl i do not know and i'm not trying to find out. he was too toxic for me" i said waving my hand

"well you do know thats his mom died earlier this week?" miss trish said leaning down

"oh my god...for real?" i said as my heart sank and miss trish shook her head

"i might have to go see him..i was wondering why i didn't see him around school this week" i said feeling bad

"yeah he supposed to be moving next month back with his dad" she said making my heart sink even more

jaylen..he's my ex, we haven't had the best past nor we haven't interacted in a while. but it was the best days for me honestly. he was a cheater, manipulator and a liar. did i mention he was toxic???

"that sucks" i said putting all my attention onto miss trish

"are you gonna go by his grandmother's house?" miss trish asked

"yeah probably just to check up on him i don't wanna bother him"

"i know thats right.." she said as the bell rang

"well let me get this damn class started" as she walked away giggling while i took my notebook out

*32 minutes in biology class*

i looked up and i saw someone or something in the window of the class door

i squinted my eyes and the more my eyes focused the more it looked like marcus trying to get my attention

"now class, can humans ever directly see a photon?" miss trish asked

i raised my hand

"yes naomi?" she called on me

"oh i don't have the answer but can i go to the bathroom?" i asked her

"yes right after you answer my question" she said smiling

"yes, in fact we can see a photon miss trish" i said trying not to sound as passive aggressive

"okay you can head to the bathroom now miss naomi" she said trying to be petty as she giggled

i looked back at the door just to see marcus not there anymore, so i got up out my seat and made my way to the door

i walked out the classroom and closed the door behind me

i looked up & down the hallway and marcus was no where to be found

i started to walk to the girl's bathroom until someone snatched me up, took me in the boys bathroom and put their hand over my mouth

i hit whoever it was in the stomach with my elbow as their grip loosened i turned around & saw marcus

"fuck" he said holding his stomach

"why you play so fucking much?" i said fixing my jacket

"damn my bad chill" he started laughing

"look what you want? i need to get back to class"

"i wanted to see you" he said with a straight face as it got quiet

i was trying so hard not to laugh but i didn't know if he was serious but i could hold my laugh in anymore

i started busting out laughing

"you funny as hell, now seriously what you want?" i said smiling cause i just know this nigga not serious

he just looked at me with a straight face you could see that he was deadass serious

"oh you deadass right now" i said feeling shy and getting butterflies in my stomach

"yeah..i was thinking bout you ever since i dropped you off to yo class" he said looking down

it took a while for me to take this all in so i just admired his whole look...his outfit was basic but his face...was unique.

he had on a plain white tee, black jeans, and some all black jordan retro 4's with a gold chain

"naomi??" he said inna low tone snapping me back into reality

"yes...sorry i was just thinking about something, could you repeat please?" i said looking back up at him

"i was saying im trying to be your close friend" he said

"nigga you is not lil baby..but yeah sure only if you define what you mean by close friend" i said in curiosity

"i mean like..you come over my house, i come over your house, i take you shopping, and you just sit and look pretty" he said smiling leaning against the wall

i looked at him trying not to smile

"yeah sure.."

we just sat in complete silence for about 10 seconds then i broke the silence

"ok i have to go to class" i said about to walk out until he grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards him..
