After everything was got up and restored into her bag, the school bell had rung, and once again she had taken off to get away from him. He didn’t want her to get away like last time, but he didn’t want to make her upset or angry because if he kept being bothersome, there isn’t no telling what she would do. Next time he’ll have to wait for the right moment in order for things to work properly between them, either today or tomorrow, it has to be at the right time. After she left, he grabbed his things as well and headed back inside the school. Once inside, he proceeded onward to his next class.

A few classes later, the final bell ring notified that school was over for the day as Roland started putting away his books into his locker. While doing so, for some odd reason Steven was being very hasty  like he was to go somewhere important and was in a rush as he tried open his locker very quickly and just throw all of his books in his locker. Roland looked at him as he thought it was funny and spoke to him with a little bit of laughter. [i]“What’s up with the rush Steven?”[/i]

[i]“Can’t talk Roland, can’t talk.”[/i] said Steven [i]“Have somewhere important I have to be so I’m going to be late tonight. Make sure to tell mom and dad for me, and I’ll see you later.”[/i]

[i]“Ok then”[/i] replied Roland but reminded him of one minor detail [i]“But it’s still a school night!”[/i] As Steven ran out of sight and on his way, Roland closed his locker and made his way out of school as well. Once he was outside, before he could begin making his way home, he looked at the steps in front of him to see Avery again just sitting there. He knew it was her from the sweater she wore yesterday and today, so he went down the steps and looked right at her while she sat there thinking on something from the looks of it. He didn’t want to be bothersome really, but he couldn’t help it because there was so much mystery to her and so many questions he wanted to ask, but he knew doing so will just drive her away again. Instead he just decided to ask a simple question. 

[i]“Whatcha doing?”[/i]
