dialogue:

"hey, kingsley!" chris hollered as he jogged up the stairs to where kinsley's locker was. 

"hey, chris! what's up?" 

"i heard you and vinnie are dating now?"

"i guess word travels fast." 

"well, yeah, i guess when it comes out of vinnie's mouth." chris scratched the back of his neck. "but, yeah, i was just gonna talk to you about it!" chris said quickly. 

"yeah, well, we're dating." kingsley smiled as she closed her locker. 

"cool, cool. you happy?" chris asked as he began to walk with her to class.

"yeah, i am." 

"good, good. so i guess this means you and i probably shouldn't go and grab coffee anymore?"

"what? no!" kingsley said as she stopped walking. "why would you think that?"

"well, it's just because you've got a boyfriend, and i don't really think he likes me." chris mumbled. 

"okay, first off, i can be friends and drink coffee with whoever i want, no matter what. and vinnie doesn't have anything against you. i promise." kingsley said as she continued walking. 

"thanks." chris smiled softly.

"so, this weekend?" kingsley asked. 

"huh?"

"this weekend. let's get coffee."

"oh, yeah, for sure!"

"this sucks, vincent." kingsley said as she read over vinnie's paper. 

"it can't be that bad. i copied like, half of it!"

"see, that's why it sucks!" maggie said. "if you're gonna plagiarize something, you can't half ass it. you have to go full on." 

"or you could just write it yourself." kingsley said handing the paper back to vinnie. 

"you underlined almost everything!" he exclaimed. 

"you told me to underline everything that needed work." kingsley said shrugging before laughing. 

"you're a brat." he laughed with her. 

"i'm gonna go throw away my cup." maggie said standing up from the table they were sitting at. 

"throw away vincent's paper while you're at it!" kingsley hollered. 

"you're so mean!" vinnie yelled as she put his arm around her shoulders. 

"hey, vinnie!" micha and sam yelled running  to them. 

"hey kingsley." they both said as soon as the reached the table. 

"vinnie, we need your paper." sam said. 

"oh, don't bother. it's a c minus, at best." 

"fuck you!" vinnie said as she laughed. 

"well, i need to turn in something." micha said beginning to panic. "kingsley, give me your paper!"

"sorry micha, i turned it in last period." 

"i'm gonna fail!" micha yelled!

"well, if it makes you feel any better, you would probably still failed if you used vinnie's paper." kingsley joked. 

"kingsey." vinnie smiled. 

"sorry, i'm done, that was the last one!" she said. 

"hey, kingsley, it that your friend?" sam asked pointing to maggie who was now walking back to kingsley.
