Friday 13th Of September

Jade walks out the door and then looks at her phone, "A message?" Giggling at her phone, She looks towards her house and shuts the gate. Jordan walks through the school gate's, "Preston!" He turns his head, laughs and puts a piece of paper in his back pocket as he runs over. "Guess what!" Jordan and watches his hands fiddle with a piece of card, "What?... spit it out Preston." Preston pushes it into his face, Jordan takes it out of his hands. "Cage fighting... secret though." Jordan flicks his hair back, "When... it's not on here." Preston looks around, "Well idiot, it's not just trusted with just anyone." Preston gloats and neatens his tie, "But... your not trusted if it has no place, date or time." He rolls his eyes then holds his shoulder, "No! That would be stupid, Some people told me but we have to keep it quiet. No telling your girlfriends, got it!" Jordan laughs, "Alright, alright." Preston pulls his tie making Jordan's face move towards him, he whispers into his ear. "Now listen, listen good. I'm not telling you no location, but be prepared in 5 weeks. I don't want to be embarrassed considering I'm your manager..." Preston moves away, "Got it." Jordan laughs, "Wow, who knew you could be so persistent, you could actually pass for scary." Preston smiles and repeats again and again, "Wednesday the 16th! Wednesday the 16th you are busy!" Jordan laughs and shakes his head, "I got it man." Preston frowns, "What?" Preston grabs the paper and pushes it in his bag then pushes him, "Look, you trying to get us caught!" Jordan smiles and scratches the back of his head, "Wouldn't dream of it." Preston rolls his eyes, "I feel like I'm going to get caught." His eyes direct themselves to his face, scanning his expression. "Preston, you know me. I don't want to get in trouble, nor do you." Preston nods, "Yeah I guess." Jordan laughs pushing Preston and they laugh as they walk inside.

Once the bell rings Jordan scans a crowd of people in a search for Jade when his eyes divert down to Katie who is standing there with a huge grin on her face. "Look... I can see that your mind is all over the place, I am willing to take you back." He laughs and looks back up, "Don't bother." She screws him, pushing him out of the way and he loses his balance then she walks away shouting. "Your popularity... that went down the drain baby." He looks at the trail of people she pushed out of her way then pushes his hair out of his face, "I thought I made her more popular." He strolls to class and nods at the teacher as he walks in, he looks around the class then sits down in his seat, his arm rest firmly on the desk then his head dives on top, closing his eyes to sleep. Jade speed walks down the corridor and spots Mr. Johnson closing the door, "Mr. Johnson!" He looks back and opens his door. "You're lucky miss Fend." She smiles and thanks him as she walks in, she takes her seat and gets her books out ready to learn. She suddenly feels someone watching her, she looks over at Jordan, but he's too into his nap to actually bother, she silently whispers to herself. "Don't be her, don't be her." She watches Mr. Johnson then when he looks away she turns her head around, "Didn't your mother ever teach you not to stare." She tilts her head then smiles widely, Katie grins with all her teeth showing. "Didn't your mother tell you that you mouth will get you into trouble?" She turns around knowing that Katie is loving that moment, "Your bad aura is bumming everyone out, is there a way you can keep it to yourself." The corner of Jade's mouth curls up, because she knows, she won that round. "Shut up!" Jade Smiles and copies the board down.

Bell goes off and Maths is over, Jade walks out of her class and standing in front is Taylor. "Where's Rilie?" Taylor laughs, "She ran out of class screaming 'Principle!'" Jade laughs, "Oh, She's so strange." They started walking when Preston taps Taylor's right shoulder, "Hey." Taylor looks up at him and in the corner of her lip she is holding back a smile, "Y- Yes?" He smirks watching her lips then slowly returning his eyes to her eyes. "Can I ask you now?" She giggles "No, Wednesday... ask me then." He smiles and nods slowly not losing eye contact, he turns and walks away in the search for Jordan, Jade stands their smiling with teeth. "Cute! He likes you." Taylor looks at her and shakes her head, "Jordan likes you." Jade frowns, "Hey, don't change the subject, we don't know if he really does." Taylor rolls her eyes, "Go that far for a joke... I don't think so." Jade smiles weakly, she whispers timidly. "I'm sure they would." Taylor smiles softly trying to comfort her, "I think he really likes you... or Katie wouldn't get that upset. Anyway, don't think about it too much." Jade nods, "Yeah... I guess. So, Preston!" Jade laughs, Taylor breathes heavily. "well, I need to know whether he does this to all girls, I'm asking around and deciding..." Jade nods, "oh I see... good plan." Taylor gives her a worrying smile, "Yeah... I guess." Jade looks at her, "What?" Taylor starts walking in the direction of her class then startles as she speaks, "Well... h- he hates being with one girl, he's been on millions of dates. What if he dates me then, you know." Jade sighs, "Let's do this at lunch, I have R.S... see you after." They hug and walk in opposite directions down the hall, Taylor thinks about Preston the whole time while walking to class.

She walks into her geography class and standing there is Preston leaning against the wall, "Hey Tay." She flashes him a smile then walks to her seat as Mr Lonz enters, "Preston seat." The teacher rushes to his seat opening his case then takes a quick glimpse at Preston, He then pushes his leg against the wall giving him a head start then strolls to his seat. "Today Preston." Preston sits with a huge fud and then the lesson begins, Rilie sits at the back silently whispering. "Miss Gristle-" Rilie stands up, "Sir, I don't call you by your first name." Then she sulks taking her seat, "How rude!" He looks at her, "Sorry my apologies." She nods, "I should hope so..." He carries on with his lesson forgetting that he called on Rilie for a reason.

The lesson is over and Jade is standing by their door, "Rilie, Taylor." Taylor walks over and Rilie skips over to jump on Jade, Jade screams in shock and Rilie and Taylor laugh. "The principle has a huge secret..." Taylor looks at Rilie, "Yeah?" Rilie laughs, "I don't exactly know what it is, but it's to do with when we break up in 2 weeks." Jade shakes her head, "3 weeks." Rilie looks at her and laughs, "No, 2 weeks." Taylor looks at her planner, "Jade's right, 3 weeks." Jade gloats and Layla carries on speaking, "We've been placed in the same classes as last year because they lost our papers." Taylor thinks for a minute, "A waste of a few weeks basically, last year we were trying out classes, like art and cooking and drama." Jade nods, "So when we come back, we'll be in different classes?" Rilie nods and smiles, "Don't be so worried." Jade looks down the hall and breathes out heavily, "I'm going to get Mrs Tuck, I can feel it." Taylor reassures her and they all walk to lunch laughing, They sit down with their lunch trays and Taylor notices Preston opposite her and she avoids eye contact with him, Preston nudges Jordan and his food drops off his fork and onto the floor. "What!" Jordan shouts loud enough for everyone in the lunch hall to hear, Jade turns her head looking at him strange then turns back around. "Woah, cool it." Jordan grabs another fork full and stuffs it into his mouth while staring at Preston coldly, "Call your girl over." Jordan laughs and gulps his food down, "She's not my girl... Jade!" She doesn't hear him so he raises his voice a bit. "Jade!" She looks back again rolling her eyes, "Yes?" He gestures her over while stuffing more food into his mouth, "Come." She gets up and walks over, "You can sit." She looks at her seat then sits down slowly suspicious, Preston quickly gulps his water down then speaks. "Taylor's been acting weird around me." She nods then quotes him, "I hate being with one girl." She looks him dead in the eyes. "Any questions?" Jordan bursts out with laughter, Preston tries to defend himself but he can't think of anything. "Oh, well... that's true, I said that." Jordan still laughing and Jade sits their waiting for a response, "Your calendar seems pretty booked with girls." Preston looks away, "I can make this right." Jordan tries to calm himself down.

When the bell goes off Preston watches Taylor get up from her seat and he runs to catch her. "Taylor!" She looks back and sighs, "Yes?" She slows down so he can catch up, "So, Wednesday it was a no either way." She shrugs, "I don't know yet... I don't want to be that one girl you tick off your list." He smiles, "You don't have to be my one day girl." She looks at him and stops outside their class, "Look, I gave you a day to ask... I got to think this through." She walks into the class and he walks in with a puff, Preston asked. "Miss Collin's? Can I leave quick." She gives him a good old stare, "For you to never come back, I don't think so, sit down." She carries on with her lesson Preston puts his head down and he starts snoring.

Preston wakes up and spit what's in his mouth out, Jordan hovering over him laughing. "Dude!" Preston looks down at the floor then stretches, "I missed the bell, they stuffed shit in my mouth!" Jordan laughs, "Looks like it." He gets up angry, "Nobody decided to wake me!" Jordan grins, "I'm here aren't I?" Preston pushes him, "Man, you're not the same, let's go." They walk out the building, in the corner of Preston's eye he spots..."Taylor!" She realises the voice and her speed quickens as she walks out the gate, "Fuck, I know I don't do long relationships but... she really makes me want her." Jordan laughs "Kind of the way I feel about Jade..." Preston pats him on the back then checks his phone. "He's coming... you sure about this." Preston turns to look him in the eyes, "This is your first fight since... you know." Jordan pushes him out the way, "I don't need to wait any longer, I'm a little weaker but if I can fight then I can try." They wait 10 more minutes and Jason walks out of the building, Preston looks round and walks to him. "What took you so long?" He looks at Jordan and laughs then back at Preston, "Teacher kept me init, I'm fighting him? Ha." Preston laughs, Jordan walks away slowly. "He hasn't heard of me..." Preston and Jason walk towards the gate, "Nope, he has not." Jordan nods, "Well let's go." Jason nods and they all go round the corner, "Ready?" Jordan smirks, "Always." Jason crouches and gets his fist in front of his face, he goes straight for his face and Jordan looks down and smiles. "Ouch..." He punches him to the ground, Jason swings his legs making Jordan's balance unstable, he falls to the ground and Jordan punches him in the stomach hard enough for his breathing to sound croaky. "Guess that's enough." Jordan puts his finger in his mouth and feels his teeth, he smiles then walks away with Preston, Preston looks at his phone. "I've got to go, good fight though." Preston runs away into the distance, Jade walks out the gate and Jordan sneaks behind her covering her eyes, "Ah!" She uses her upper body strengths to push her elbow into his rib cage, "Wow." He backs away and she turns around in anger she punches him in the arm, "Don't do that again idiot!" He sniggers, "Sorry." She gives him an evil stare down... "What?" She stays silent... "Jade! What is it?" She starts walking, "You know you have blood on your face..." He tries to wipe it away, "Is that it." He laughs and she sighs, "You're supposed to be recovering..." He smiles, "I don't need to, he didn't hurt me that bad." She looks at him, "You're not good at hiding it..." He looks at her curiously, "What do you mean by that?" She stops, "When you first got beaten up, you pretended to be fine." He shakes his head, "It didn't hurt." She rolls her eyes and they carry on walking, "So how badly did you leave the other boy?" They reach the platform, they scan their passes and stand there waiting for the train. "How bad?" He flicks his hair back, "Not bad." She looks at him as the train stops in front of them, "Liar... as soon as he made you bleed you saw red, you were hurt and angry." Jordan laughs and they get on the train, "Why do you think that?" She looks away, "Your fight with Willis." He stays quiet until they get off, they walk away from the train and he looks her in the eye. "Willis... is that it? he left me!" She nods then fake smiles, "To die..." They stand there while silently staring at each other, she walks away, Jordan tries to call her back but she ignores him.
