17 Chapter 17 (1/2)
Skylar walked into Math and she found Lola already seated. She slid into her chair,
”What's up with you?”
”I just had a long chat with queen b.”
”Karly?”
”Yeah.”
”About what?” Lola asked a bit puzzled.
”Friday, when Reign and I left to go talk.”
”Oh Shit! Does she know everything?”
”Not, really because I diverted the conversation.”
”I don't get it.”
”I said I was asking about Jessie, which insinuated that I like him.”
”That's smooth” Lola added more, ”But dangerous.”
”To make matters worse, I was paired with Reign and Karly for the English assignment.”
Lola laughed, ”Well you have it rough my friend.”
”Tell me about it. I could have taken anyone but them.”
”I feel for you.”
Skylar looked up and she saw Karly and her minions walking in, before they could pass, they're table she called out to her.
”Karly.”
Karly stopped and turned to her, and so did her minions. ”What is it new girl?”
Before she could answer her, Reign and Jessie came behind them, and they looked at their exchange weirdly.
Skylar carried on. ”I wanted to ask what time and where are we meeting.”
Karly snorted, ”Wow you really are such a geek.”
”We can meet directly after school, since we have no sports tomorrow and we can meet at my place.”
”That's great.”
”I have things that I have to do after school.” Karly whined.
”Exactly.” Beth added in.
”I second that.” Vivian chimed in.
”You guys can meet up another time.” Said Reign.
”Why do we have to do what new girl wants?” said Karly.
”I also want to start and get the assignment over and done with.”
”Fine.” Karly grudgingly accepted.
They all went to their table, and Skylar felt relieved.
”Well that's a first.” Lola whispered.
”What is?”
”Reign took your side.”
”No he didn't, he took the side of education.”
The day went by and when school finished, she hugged Lola bye and waited for Reign and Karly. A few students passed by and finally Reign, and Jessie showed up. They came towards her,
”Wow you are early.” Said Reign.
”I was waiting for you guys.”
They talked some more with Jessie and after some more minutes,
”I hate to leave you guys, but I have to go.”
Jessie stood in front of her and opened his arms. Skylar walked in and he embraced her. Then he pulled back.
”How come I don't get such hugs from you. After how many years of our precious relationship.” Said Reign.
Jessie envelops him in a hug, and they all laugh.
