James POV flashback
It's been a few months since I've been here. David and I made a deal. As long as David shut his mouth about me and Beatrix, he's going to be safe.
Mom didn't call me like that.
"I love you"
I never lie to her, and one day when she's ready, I'm gonna tell her. I'm gonna tell her everything.
"Max, it's so good to be with you," she says. "But right now, we got to get ready for school," she tells me.
Speaking of school. It's the last week of school before we graduate. I am going to tell her everything about me after our graduation. I don't need to freak her out. Not yet.
I love her.
David called shortly for us to go downstairs.
In the car.
"So, Beatrix, tell me how much do you like Max?" What is David doing? I got to stop him before he says something serious.
"Well, we are pretty serious. Max is going to be with me forever," I relax with her response.
"What if I tell..."
"Oh, look we're here. Let's go," I cut David off. My name is Max.
"Maria is at the door. Baby, I'll see you," she says before she jumps out of the car.
"What are you doing man, you know she can never be yours," David says just when I was about to open the door.
"What is wrong with you?" I ask him. "Don't forget our deal," I add.
"You need to tell her. She doesn't deserve you,"
"You want to piss me out! Is that what you want," I say as I slap the door close.
Class time.
David's word is messing with my head. I hate that guy. I don't even know what the hell teacher is talking about.
"Max, why don't you answer?"
Wait, what? What was the question? Shit. I don't even know what she was talking about. She starts walking towards me.
"You weren't listening to the class were you,"
God, this is bad! Beatrix is looking at me. Mouthing me "what the hell,"
Brayan pock me. "What is going on with you," he whispers to me.
"Um, I'm sorry I need to go to the washroom," I say feeling sick in the stomach.
Why did David have to bring it up before I leave the car?
"You weren't listening, were you?" The teacher asked.
"I was..." I start speaking quietly.
Here is the thing, this whole time I didn't lie to the school. Nothing major. I was a nerd.
