This story will also change POV's in the chapters they're not going to be all of just one person.
Suze POV
I can't believe I'm stuck spending my weekend with some eighth grader in a bake booth just because I skipped school. This is my punishment, why couldn't I just get detention or something normal?
I shook my head and composed myself as I started walking toward the booth, I saw a young girl with red hair and blue eyes waiting for me.
"Are you Suze?" She sounded nervous.
"Yeah, what's your name?"
"Shannon."
"It's a pleasure to meet you Shannon."
She smiled at me; guess she's a little less nervous. Suddenly it hit me. She's the girl that David likes. I made a mental note to ask her about him later.
I saw CeeCee and she started making her way toward the booth.
"Hey girl, what's up?" I gave her a blank look, what did she think was up?
"Bad question sorry but he check out the hottie over there." I turned to look where she was pointing.
"Whoa."
"Yeah."
"Jake would kill me if I ever talked to him."
Me and Cee laughed. We stopped when Sister Ernstein looked at us.
CeeCee sighed, "I guess I better go. I'll come back when your shift is over."
I nodded and watched as she left. I wish I could leave.
Jesses POV
I sighed again for what seemed like the 100th time since we arrived. How I ever let Maria talk me into this is beyond me. Well having Diego on her side sure helped, my cousin has my best friend whipped.
Maria sighed, "I'm hungry, could you guys find me some food?"
We looked at each other and got up; I looked around and found a bake booth. Diego followed my gaze to the little girl by herself. He smirked. "Let's go shake things up over there."
I shook my head but followed. Diego took his "gangbanger" reputation seriously. So did I but I didn't like messing with kids. That wasn't gonna stop me from stopping him though.
When we got closer we could see the scared look on her face. Diego laughed, "Too easy man."
His good mood didn't last when an older girl came from the back of the booth. We could both tell she didn't scare easy. That girl has attitude.
When I got closer I saw what she looked like. Bright green eyes, long wavy brown hair. She was gorgeous. She looked a few years younger, 16 at the youngest.
Diego laughed, "Like what you see?"
I looked at him. "Yeah, I do."
He rolled his eyes at me. "Let's go get my girl's food. You know how she gets, I mean you are related."
We went and stood in line. I turned my attention back to the mystery girl. She had a bored expression as she dealt with an annoying customer. I started listening so I could see what was so boring.
Suze POV
I looked at the lady in front of me and then at the little boy.
"I'm raising him on a diet that doesn't include anything with wheat or dairy in it. So do you have anything without those products?"
I gave her a bored look then looked back at the boy again. He was gazing longingly at the lemon squares.
I shrugged. "Try the lemon squares."
She smiled and bought one. I winked at him as he left eating it.
I pulled my hair back away from my face and looked up to greet the next customers. One of them was the same guy that CeeCee had pointed out earlier. I was about to ask them what they wanted when Shannon stopped me.
"Suze those lemon squares had both wheat AND dairy in them!"
I looked at her, "She didn't say he was allergic and he really wanted one."
She shook her head and said, "David was right, you are cool."
She turned away and I rolled my eyes and turned my attention back to my customers. They bought lemon squares and a bag of assorted cookies.
The hot one, the one with the shorter hair, looked like he was gonna say something when Paul Slater came over. He smiled at Shannon who blushed. The two guys rolled their eyes and I smirked, Slater was known for his charm. He told her she could break for a while so she went to the table at the back of the booth to do some homework.
Paul turned to me, but I ignored him and went back to my customers. The hot one shook his head. "I'm not hungry. Let's go back."
Ok so that's the first chapter!
I know the format not the best…as for the slang, it's done on purpose, I'm trying to make it more realistic, I'm sorry but I don't speak proper English with my friends. If it does bother anyone just let me know and I can fix it. What you think matters a lot.
That said…I am looking for a BETA for the format and grammar. So if anyone is interested let me know!
REVIEW!! Seriously, I know it takes me a while to get stuff out and I'm really sorry about that! But your reviews really do make me start writing a lot faster. I'm more motivated if I know people are actually reading it and like it. Don't just put the story on alert!
