Varsity Rules Chapter Nine |
Justin sat down and pushed the tray away. "YO I bought today!" Josh said angrily pounding on the table. "My mom made my lunch." Justin said pulling out his sandwich from the brown paper bag. "I'll eat it!" Joey said grabbing the tray. "Yo Josh!" Chris said running over. He slid onto the bench beside Josh. "She lives on 231 Vernon Street." Chris panted. "Who?" justin asked suspiciously. "No one." Josh replied "Who!" Justin demanded standing up and kicking his chair back. He stared down at Josh and a petrified Chris. "Tell me who!" Justin growled at his best friend who was hiding something. Chris opened his mouth to speak but Josh covered it. "No one Justin." Josh said strongly. "I dunno what the fuck is going on but I'm gonna find out." Justin said angrily scooping up his lunch and bookbag. He walked away from the table and angrily crossed the lunchroom. he took up a seat at an empty roud table. He ate quickly and pulled out one of his books. "Chemistry?" A soft voice asked "yeah." he grumbled as he stared down at the book. Then he looked up in shock it was Emily standing in front of him. he pulled out a chair for her. "Please sit." he smiled as she took the seat next to him. "I heard about the incident in your chemisty class." She giggled "Ugh I made an ass out of myself." he groaned "Everyone seemed to love it." "That's because this school loves everything I do." Justin said angrily "What's wrong?" She asked "Nothing really. I'm gonna fail this class again." he sighed "It's not that hard." "I failed it last year and I'm retaking it." he sighed "I could....nevermind." she said shaking her head. "You could what?" he asked smiling "I could tutor you if you'd want but you wouldn't because you don't want everyone to think you're not smart or something." She said babbling "I don't care what they think. I need this class to pass and I could use your help if you want to help me that is." he smiled "I would love to." She smiled "Alright great. Can I stop by your house after football practice today?" he asked nervously "Sure my address is 231 Vernon Street." She smiled before getting up. Justin looked up at her in shock. Josh had gotten that same address from Chris. Justin smiled at her but inside he was boiling over in anger. Josh was doing it again. Not this time. Justin wasn't going to let him do it to her. ~~~ Justin changed into his football gear. Anger was finally settling in on him. He ran out onto the field and had a word with the coach before jogging over to the guys. "What was that all about?" Joey asked "Nothing." Justin replied "Seemed like something." Josh shot at him. "Don't even fucking talk to me. I know hwo's address that was." Justin said eyeing him angrily "Oh really who's." Josh asked with a smirk "Emily's don't even fucking start with her Johs." Justin growled "Who said I was?" Josh grinned "Josh don't do what you do to all the other girls I like." "So you do like her." Josh smiled evilly. Justin clenched his fist tightly. he wanted to so badly hit his friend right then and now. "Don't play your fucking games with this one. You'll be sorry." Justin spat at him. "Oh what are you going to do have coach bench me!" Josh laughed "Never know." Justin said cocking his eyebrow at him. "Oh you song of a bitch!" Josh said lunging toward him. A wave of arms caught him and pulled him back. "Oh fuck you all!" Taking his side!" Josh said angrily "Not taking sides you need to calm your shit down!" Jermaine said standing between the two. "Naw leave him be, if he fucks with Emily he's gonna see what happens to him." Jusitn said with a smile "he ain't gonna do shit. He'll have me on his back." Jermaine said pounding his fist into his other palm "What are you gonna do chocolate?" Josh shot at him. Jermaine swung his fist at josh and landed it on his jaw. Josh rolled out onto the grass. Once again practice was cut short and the team was severely yelled at. At this rate they'd massacre eachother before the other team got to. Justin changed quickly and jogged down a few blocks He stood in front of Emily's door nervously. "Come in." She smiled "Thanks." he said sliding in the house. "Em, who's there?" an elderly woman asked walking over. "Grandma this is Justin. He's here to study." Emily said softly "Oh right. I'll be upstairs if you need me." The woman said walking slowly up the stairs. "That was my grandmother." Emily said flushed as she led Justin into the living room. "oooh what happened?" Emily asked pointing to Justin's bleeding hand and the brusie on his cheek. "The guys got rouch today." Justin smiled "You should clean that." She said getting up "No it's okay." He said watching her walk away. She came back with peroxide and cotton balls. She tenderly cleaned his bleeding knuckles. He watched as she did this and smiled "I'll get ice for your face." She said quietly dissapearing and coming back with an ice pack. She gently put the pack up against his cheek and his hand slid over her. He smiled at her and she looked away embarrased at the moment they just shared |
