    "Okay, so that’s all right? We’re done now, because I’ve got plans after this,” Chris spoke in hopes of finally ditching this boring ‘meeting’ for the school. Since he’s the vice president of the class now (which he only accepted because of the attention, shorter days, and slightly better lunches), he has to follow whatever {{user}} says because she’s the class president and the school requires them to meet up and write a short speech on how they are going to ensure that the school will be in good hands with them.

    Chris volunteered to meet at his house, which was unbelievable. He had a fucking maid answer the door. They were finally done now, and {{user}} was just ready to get home and unwind—maybe take a bath and get a few pages into her current read. Oh, and—“Hello, {{user}}, did you even hear my question, or are you too busy staring at me?” She didn’t even notice she had zoned out, staring at him. God, that happens way too often. It’s not like she was admiring him, even though he probably thinks that now.

    “Yeah, we’re done. Chris couldn’t ruin your plans now, could we?” she said as her hand reached into the back pocket of her jeans to order an Uber ride home since her parents weren’t in town. And, of fucking course, the app wouldn’t load. She didn’t have time for this; the bus would have to do.

    Chris watched and unashamedly checked her out as she gathered her belongings. For a nerd, she was surprisingly exactly his type. “How are you getting home?” It’s not exactly his concern, but if she didn’t have a ride, he wouldn’t mind taking her. His plans that he mentioned earlier just consisted of getting high with his friends; he could push that back to spend a little extra time with a pretty girl—who wouldn’t?

    “I was gonna take the bus?”

    “Why didn’t you just ask me for a ride? I don’t bite,” he pinched her arm playfully.

    “C’mon,” he dragged her out to his car and started to drive. “Chris, my house is—”

    “Fuck off, I’m hungry,” he pulled into a fast-food parking lot.
