《The Tutors》1-Roxie
Advertisement
I'm running down the hallway again. Only a few more months and I'm out of here. At this point I can't stand this place. High school should not be this stressful. But this is finally senior year and I'm counting the days till it's over
I glanced down at my smart watch 8:06AM. Shit! I'm late for first period class again. I knew I should have took a quicker shower after practice. Mrs.Joseph is definitely going to chew me out for this one. Second time this week the first time being because I was so exhausted from running through drills with the new girls on the squad and needed a coffee to get through the day. 3 more months till competition and 5 months until school is over. As soon as these 2 a day practices are over I can resume my attempt at a relaxing until college.
I walk into Mrs. Joseph's English class attempting not to make eye contact. This lady is always on my case. "Nice of you to join us Roxie" Mrs. Joseph rolls her eyes as I look over at here. I roll my eyes back. "Have a seat and please stay after for a quick chat when class is over." fighting the urge to roll my eyes again I walk to my seat. I take my usual seat in the middle of the class. Nari a nerd from the front locks eyes with me but quickly looks away. I roll my eyes at the back of her head. If she has something to say she should just say it. I'm not in the mood today.
We use to be friends but we had a moment back in freshman that changed things. After it happened neither of us new how to react. So I distanced myself and made new friends whiling cheering. Often she just looks at me rolls her eyes and look away. Her and her boyfriend are among the smartest in the class and a couple of other classes too. They don't mostly keep to themselves. I could probably count on one hand how many parties I've seen them at.

The horrendous hour that is English seems flies by as I'm lost in my thoughts and soon the bell is ringing. As I pack my bag I hear Mrs.Joseph "Nari and Kai can you two stay back as well please". They both say yes.
I release a slow breath to prepare myself for the bullshit that is this conversation. What could she possibly want with the three of us? I turn around slowly and walk to the front of the class standing beside Nari. I look at Kai and he's looking at Nari as if he's studying her reaction and waiting for something to happen.
Kai seems like a good boyfriend. A little quiet but still hot. I could tell he had a toned body under those clothes and he had the type of eyes that made you say yes no matter what he was asking. He was about 6ft tall I'm guessing so you have no choice but to look up into them. I haven't had a boyfriend since junior year. Kyle Jameson the school quarterback was the last guy I allowed to break my heart. I caught him in bed with 2 girls from the volleyball team. When I had caught them he had the nerve to ask me to join. I didn't think twice about kicking him to the curve. Maybe one day I'll have a boyfriend who looks at me the same way Kai does Nari. I'm lost in my thoughts again.
"Nari and Kai are the two of you still looking for extra credit that you asked for this morning" Mrs.Joseph ask breaking me out of thought. Why would anyone need extra credit for a class they're already passing is beyond me. Nari answers for them both "Yes".
"Good I would like you two to alternate tutoring Roxie as she has consistently missed the beginning of my class at least twice a week for the last two months. I'd like to ensure she's keeping up on what she's missing". I bite my tongue to stop from sucking my teeth. "As for you Roxie, make it to all your tutoring sessions and you will still graduate on time end of story".

I don't have the energy to argue so I just nod. I was still beat from this mornings practice and my mind kept drifting off. I follow Kai and Nari as they exit the class. "Someone text me an address. I guess I have no choice but to see you two tonight." not giving them a chance to answer as I push by rolling my eyes. I see Nari smirk. What is up with that girl? She's hot and cold all the time.
I really need to find away out of this because if I'm being real I don't think I can sit through an entire hour alone with Nari. There's a tension between us I can't point out. One minute she's rolling her eyes the next minute she's unbothered, both moods annoying me. Kai on the other hand I can deal with. He's the perfect eye candy. Maybe I can flirt him into getting Nari to cut me some slack. I'll be exhausted if I have to add this to my schedule.
