I'm sorry that this is so short but I have writers block and I'm stuck for what to write and none the less, still wanted to update. If anyone had any ideas for what to happen next then I would be able to update much faster. For now, I will probably update next time I come up with an idea. Check out my other story.
Read and review :)
"Ok, these are literally the best freaking waffles in the world" Max exclaimed while taking another bite of her strawberry, whipped cream and maple syrup covered waffle.
"Mh, well they are good but they don't beat eggos" El tells her.
"Eggos? You mean those cheap toaster waffles?" Max asked her with a false disgust look planted over her teasing face.
"I like 'em" El admitted.
"No wonder people think your weird" Max joked playfully.
"Hey!" El laughed while pushing her away.
Mike and Lucas were both in the same gym class and at the moment, both standing at the side after being eliminated from the game of dodge ball taking place. They weren't necessarily bad at the game but both boys were too distracted to even try. Mike was still in disbelief with himself after how he'd spoken to Jess. He didn't mean for his tone towards her to come off as harsh but she was really getting on his nerves. Why did she have to be such a bitch to people though? When Mike and Jessica are together, she is always so sweet, sassy but sweet, but that's only towards him. Although Jess is regularly mean to El, it's not only El that she cares to tease but also Dustin and others she believes to be below her. She doesn't like Dustin much, she sees him as a tag along. Only in all honesty its actually the other way around. Mike would choose his friends over a girl any day… well over most girls. He'd definitely choose his friends over Jessica, she's pretty and all but she's not worth that much to him. Jessica would often tease Dustin for the way he pronounces words due to his lisp or his lack of experience with girls, she wouldn't ever tease him in front of Mike and Dustin never really cared enough to tell him but every now and then her disliking towards Dustin would be slightly evident to Mike but he'd brush it off and convince himself that she was just joking with him. Obviously, Dustin never joked back, he didn't want to say anything for that could ruin his best friends' relationship.
Lucas on the other hand was love sick. He liked Max… like a lot. He didn't like her little friends though. He knew that he was never the kindest to El and half the time he wouldn't even realises that he was being mean to her, he just has a habit of talking to her the way he does but now it had to change. He knew that if he had any chance with Max that he'd probably have to put up with her sidekick. He was scared that he might not have any chance at all. He thinks that Max is the literal definition of beauty, hotter than a runway model. As for El, he'd never really looked at her properly. He's known her since the first grade and only ever saw her as the little girl at the playground. Annoying, giddy and over excited, like a child who ate far too much cake at a birthday party. They say that first impressions are the most important but how can you judge a person based off of an introduction that took place before they were even old enough to cross a road without holding their parents' hand. Anyway, his mind was on Max and how he'd win her over. Perhaps he'd ask her on a date? He'd have to get on her good side first.
School was now just about over and as everybody made their ways to exit the grounds, El had to re-enter and Mike wasn't to leave any time soon.
"So, you're actually going to go through with it?" Dustin asked.
"With what?" Mike responded casually.
"Tutoring El" He said as if his question was that specific.
"Well yeah… I don't exactly have much choice." Mike told him.
"Did you even ask if you could switch students?" Dustin pressed.
"Yeah but the teacher gave me some bullshit answer, told me I could learn manners or some shit like that from her" Mike scoffed.
"Maybe it won't be too bad" Will told him. "I mean she's kind of annoying and not the brightest but I doubt that she'll be completely unbearable"
"I guess, I mean she seems nice enough" Mike said as Jessica and Ariana entered his circle of friends.
"Sure" Jess scoffed, "When she's not attacking your girlfriend that is" Jessica emphasized the word 'girlfriend' cockily. Mike took a deep breath.
"Listen Jess, I'm sorry that I didn't stick up for you but I still don't like the way you were speaking to Max and El, it was uncalled for" Mike admitted. Jessica rolled her eyes.
"Apology accepted" Jessica said flirty as she drew Mike closer to her by his collar and went in for a kiss, one that Mike pulled away from.
"That's all you have to say" Mike asked her dumbfounded.
"What do you want me to say, babe?" She smirked before leaning back in for the kiss that once again, Mike withdrew himself from.
"I got stuff to do" Mike told her calmly before walking away and making his way towards the school library.
Mike sat at the table closest to him and began to unbag his many supplies. While Mike couldn't care less weather or not, he did a good job of this tutoring, his mom however took it to extremes. She bought textbooks, notebooks and enough stationary to last a life time. She even packed in a container of some home baked cookies that she and Holly had made for in case he and El got hungry during there studies. Mike scoffed when he was the cookies that his mom had snuck into his bag after he told her he didn't want them but then he saw a note attached to the container that read 'luv yoo mikey' which was clearly from his four-year-old sister Holly and he couldn't help but smile.
"Hey" El said shyly, getting Mike's attention.
"Umm, hi" He said back, faking a smile.
"What have you got there" El asked him timidly, referring to the note in his hand while taking a seat beside him.
"Oh, its just a note from my sister, its not important" Mike replied.
"Your sister Nancy?" El asked.
"No, Holly" Mike told her passively, why did she care?
"I though your sisters name way Nancy" El told him curiously. Mike was getting annoyed now.
"Yeah, I have a sister called Nancy but I also have a little sister called Holly" Mike answered frustratedly.
"How old is she?" El continued. Mike tried to hold back an eye roll.
"She's four. Now were here to study" Mike reminded calmly.
"Aww I didn't know you had a little sister" El smiled.
"Ok." Mike said. "So, let's have a look at your most recent work so that I can see where you're at"
"Ok" El replied. She got the impression that Mike wasn't one for small talk.
"Ok well first thing I noticed is that you spelt the word necessary wrong and the sentence you wrote makes no sense" Mike frowned.
"Yes it does" El tells him.
"No... it doesn't" Mike rolled his eyes.
"It does" El repeated calmly.
'This is going to be a long hour' Mike thought.
