woke up feeling drowsy the next morning as I pulled my uniform on. As I walked out of the doors I saw Davis standing at the archway holding flowers. As soon as he saw me he walked over.

"I got these for you." He said as he handed them to me. "I felt bad that I like bugged you last night." I grabbed them and forced a smile. "Can I walk you to class?" The look on his face was ready for a no to come out of my mouth.

"I guess." I tried not to sound happy. I turned and saw the flowers in the middle of the flower bed were none existent. I looked at the flowers I carried and smiled knowing how he got them.

"Listen I've been thinking about it all night, I wanna hang out like after school or something. You know like just hang out and talk. If you want to." He looked desperate.

"Look at the poor kids in their hand me down clothes. Ha ha ha." A voice from behind us mocked.

"Shut up Gord." Davis said turning to face the boy.

"Oh what are you going to do? Go home to your dumpster and get your rusty bat?" The boy taunted.

"Do you have anything better to do?" I turned and asked.

"Hmm. I wish you weren't poor I would bring you home to see my expensive clothing." He said walking around me looking up and down. I pushed him away.

"Get away from me." I said in disgust. Davis stood in between us.

"Dude back off Gord." He said in a threatening way. I pushed past Davis and punched Gord in the face, knocking him down to the ground.

"Yea what about your expensive clothing? Oh they got blood all over them? Oh that sucks." I snapped. Gord sat up in awe.

"You hit me." He stated. I laughed.

"You think Einstein? Don't talk to him or me again or else I'll do worse." He stood up slowly.

"You are something else. I like you." He said walking away wiping his face on his sleeve. I scoffed and rolled my eyes. As I faced Davis I saw he stood there with his mouth open.

"What?" I asked giving him a weird look.

"You knocked him to the ground, one punch. What the hell was that?" He followed me while I walked.

"My temper can get out of control sometimes. Just talking shit about how much money you have and living in a dumpster, I hate that." I said as my hands started to shake from anger. "That and when he looked at me like just a piece of ass, grr." I got angry to the point where I wished I would chase him down and beat him until he wouldn't get up again. Davis put his hand on my shoulder.

"It's okay. I would have stood up for you but you didn't give me a chance." He laughed. "You were so quick I barely saw your fist." I laughed with him.

"Oops."

"Sapphira come with me please." I heard a familiar voice behind me. As I turned it was exactly what I feared. Max.
