Jess sat at her desk trying to get her last bit of homework done before her mom told her that it was almost time for the bus to get there, so she'd better hurry up. She had been up all night texting Alice, trying to give her advice with her boy troubles. But the goodness to honest truth, is that she'd sick of talking about boys! She wished that Taylor and Alice were better friends, because they could just cry about their boy troubles together. She sighed, she just remembered that she was supposed to stay after school today.........................................................................................................
Jess ran into school and finally got to the lockers. She saw Zeke leaning on a locker reading and listening to music."Hi, Zeke!"
"Oh, hey Jess." he smiled at her,"Are you still staying after school?"
"Yeah. Oh! I totally forgot that you were too!"
He smiled and laughed. He always had a shy personality. Although he wasn't shy with her, he just didn't like talking much,"Yeah. If you want, I can walk you there."
Oh Zeke! He's always so nice."OK! I'll totally take you up on that offer."
"Cool." he smiled at her, but then Kathryn, a girl from their class, walked up to her locker (which is only two lockers down from Zeke) got her books out then walked off. He watched her leave then turned his attention back to Jess,"Sorry, I get distracted sometimes."
