Janna and Marco sat in detention. Marco glared at Janna, "I don't understand why I have detention because you drug me into the janitor's closet."
"Oh c'mon Marco, don't pretend you didn't love it." Janna teased and Marco groaned, "Don't be such a safe kid."
Marco glared at her again and Ms. Skullnick snapped, "Silence!" the two jumped at her voice, "In case you two haven't noticed, I'm stuck watching you two to make sure you lovebirds stay out of trouble."
"We're not lovebirds." Marco tried to explain, "Janna's just…"
"I said silence!" Marco jumped back and Ms. Skullnick stood up, "I'll be back later, I don't want to hear a sound." She walked out of the room and closed the door.
Marco looked back at Janna and she smirked and waved at him. Shaking his head, he looked forward and started working on his homework. Janna stood up and slowly walked up behind Marco. Once she was right behind him, she said, "So Marco," Marco jumped slightly and looked back in annoyance, "I say we ditch detention and continue our little game."
"No Janna," Marco rolled his eyes, "In case you forgot, it was your game that got us in here in the first place."
He turned back around and continued his homework. Janna walked around him, pushed him back and sat on his lap, "Janna what the heck! Ms. Skullnick is going to be back and we'll get in trouble."
"But we're already in trouble," Janna played, rubbing his chest, "So we should have some fun."
Marco tried to push her off of him to no avail. He looked at her annoyingly, "Janna, get off. I don't think this is a good idea and I do…"
Before he could finish, he felt Janna crush her lips onto his. Janna pulled away and smirked at Marco's shocked face, "So, ready to ditch detention? I know a few ways of tricking Ms. Skullnick."
"I…I uh…" he looked at the door and heard the clicking sound of Ms. Skullnick's heels approaching, "Let's um…"
Janna grabbed him by the arms and pulled him towards the windows. Opening one, she put his hands on the outside of it and then hers, "Let's go." She pulled him to the closet and closed it.
Marco looked at her and asked, "Janna, I thought…"
"Shh," Janna hushed him, "We're going to leave, but what's a prank if you can't see the victim's face?"
They heard the door open and heard Ms. Skullnick yelled, "Where did you kids go?!" Janna opened the door slightly and the two peeked through the crack and saw Ms. Skullnick searching the room frantically. She saw the opened window and her eyes narrowed, "No one escapes detention from me!"
She charged at the window and broke though the wall before running away from the school. Janna opened the closet and Marco looked shocked, "Ms. Skullnick just ran through the wall like it was nothing."
"Well she is a four hundred pound troll, I doubt she felt anything." Janna walked over to the hole in the wall, "C'mon, our escape route is waiting."
"Right,"
The two walked through the hole and went in the opposite direction from Ms. Skullnick. They walked down the block leading to Janna's house, "…anyway, she misunderstood everything I said and turned the entire football field into a minefield."
"Damn, I can't believe I missed that." Janna laughed, "It sounded like it was a lot of fun, especially the part where Brittney ran only to be swallowed by a giant worm and the Warriors running like scared little girls."
"It was kind of funny," Marco smirked.
Janna walked up to a house and looked back, "C'mon, my parents are at work and Star knows you won't be home until later."
Marco shrugged his shoulders and followed her inside. Janna walked into the kitchen, "I'll get us some soda."
Marco nodded and sat on the couch. He looked around and saw a book on the table, "What's this?" he picked it up and opened it, "Dear Diary…fuck! Wait, why is my name in here?" he started scanning the page, "Today I was almost successful. I had something Marco needed and he was completely oblivious about my hints so I took his house keys. But unfortunately mom made me give them back to him so I couldn't use them to get a date with him."
Marco looked surprised. He didn't hear Janna walk back in, "Hey I hope Pepsi…Marco!" Marco jumped, dropping the diary. Janna put the two glasses on the table and picked the diary up before opening it, "How much did you read?"
"Only the page where you explained that you took my house keys," Marco answered. Janna's eyes widened, "If uh…you know if you wanted a date, you could've just asked…and not steel my house keys."
Janna looked at him in disbelief, "Are you asking me out?"
"I don't know, are you saying yes?"
"What if I am?"
"Then I say I'll see you by the fountains tomorrow after school,"
"Fine,"
"Fine,"
"Fine,"
"Fine,"
Before Janna could respond, Marco quickly kissed her cheek and turned to leave, "Sorry Janna, but I have to get going. Star probably forgot to tell my parents I had detention. See you tomorrow," He walked out of the house and closed the door behind him.
Janna stood in the living room in shock as she touched her cheek. She half smiled as she took her diary and a pen and began writing in it. As she put her diary down, the door opened and her parents walked in, "Hi Janna, what do you want for dinner tonight?" her mother asked.
"Anything's good mom," Janna started running upstairs, "I'll be in my room if you need me!"
The two looked up the stairs as they heard Janna's room door close. Looking at each other, Janna's father asked, "What brought that burst of energy on?"
His wife looked at the diary and the two glasses of soda on the table, "I think that Diaz boy finally asked her out."
