"Kate this is not up for discussion." Mr Wick held up a hand signalling for me to stop. I really didn't want to fall out with him because I wanted to stay on his good side, but I couldn't take this lying down.
"Please Mr Wick I need a lab partner who won't make me want to drink hydrochloric acid!" I desperately pleaded, I contemplated getting on my knees and begging, but I knew that Mr Wick would find that way too inappropriate.
"No Kate I have to put my foot down. You are a gifted student, truly, and so I have added a slight incentive, if you can help Mr Tucker improve his grade, I will give you an extra credit, no one will be able to help him beside you Kate." He said firmly but kindly. I didn't really need the extra credit, I was a straight A student and science was a breeze for me, but I decided that if I fought any further on this issue that it wouldn't get me very far, I also felt sorry for John, so I resolved to shut up and agree.
"OK Mr Wick, I'll do it, but not happily." I huffed grudgingly.
"That's the spirit! And who knows, you may learn a thing or two from Mr Tucker!"Mr Wick smiled at me looking for a laugh but I just stared at him impassively. He cleared his throat as I walked out of the classroom.
I stood at my locker cramming books into my backpack, frustrated, when I heard John talking to Tommy. 'She's proving difficult, but I'll find a way.' 'Dude, there she is, walk her home or something and then cash in on the goods.' 'Good plan, catch you man.' I felt like grabbing his beautiful head and slamming it in my locker. I shut my locker and swung my bag on my shoulder. I could hear John calling out my name, which made me pick up my pace. I jogged out of the school. I couldn't run into him, I decided to go the park and try and loose him there. I weaved in and out of the trees and came to the mouth of a pond. There was a bench which I sat on. I shivered as the thought crossed my mind, about running my hands down John's stomach to undo his belt buckle. I gasped at how indecorous my thoughts involving John were becoming. I was so confused, I guess deep down I wanted John, but I would never allow it.
"Thinking about me, like always?" John popped his head over my shoulder. A tiny scream came out of my chest, if only he knew what I was thinking about, if only.
"Thinking about pushing you off a cliff, then I guess you could consider that thinking about you." I will agree with John when he said I was sending him mixed messages. When I thought about it, I insulted him all day long but my body language told him all he needed to hear.
"I'll take what I can get." John said as he pulled a closed fist downwards. He jumped over the back of the bench and sat really close to me, regrettably I sat right on the edge of the bench. He stretched his arm out over my shoulders. I turned my face to look at him and bumped his nose with mine. Before I knew what was happening I had my tongue down John's throat. I tucked my knees under myself and pushed forward and John gladly complied lying back and gently placing his hands at the back of my head. He groaned happily. I quickly scolded myself and pushed him away.
"Typical!" I cried as I stood up.
"You're going to blame me? Oh come on Kate, give yourself some credit. You kissed me, not that I care; it just shows how much you want me." John eased up off the bench and ran a finger across his lip as he grinned.
"EW! I didn't... why would I? I wasn't... you..." I yelled, John just chuckled and edged closer towards me.
"No, no! You stay away from me!" I said as he came closer, I kept backing away until, SPLASH! I had gone back too far and fell into the pond behind me. I was completely submerged in the filthy water. I came back to the surface, gasping as I did; my blonde hair slicked the sides of my face. All I could hear was John laughing himself halfway to death. As I got my footing back I angrily stomped and splashed my way to John.
"I'm guessing you're going to blame me for this too?" John said still laughing.
"No John, I am all wet and I want a big handsome hunk like you to dry me off." I stepped closer to the astonished John. I clasp my hands in front of me pushing my boobs together and my wet shirt stuck to them.
"What do you say Tucker? Here in the open or somewhere a little more private?" I am trying to be as seductive as I can muster, luckily I had the little experience that the girls taught me last year, and John could be incredibly gullible. As John leaned in to kiss me, I clutched his shirt and threw him in the pond. It was my turn to laugh now. He resurfaced and shook the water from his hair. He exited the pond in the same way I did. I finished laughing, when I brushed a tear from my eye.
"Good play Spencer, good play." John admitted and I smiled. "But, if your offer still stands..." My smile faded so fast. He placed his hands on my shoulder and I shrugged them off.
"You are unbelievable!" I yelled furiously.
