Y/n's pov.
Monday. The worst day of the week.

Today, my mum leaves for her business trip and today, I have to go to school early for my basketball practice, meaning, I can't say goodbye to my mum.

I walk out of the house and check my phone to check the time.

'7:03 am'

I groan at the time and start walking to my school which was a couple of blocks away.

---

When I arrived to my school, I walked to the gym and changed.

After that, my couch shouted our names, getting our attention.

"So, tonight, we're going to be playing with 'The Tigers' from a local school near us. I want this game to be fair and you guys need to work your butts off to win this." Our couch explained.

We started 'training' for the game.

Most of us were waiting for the '8am' bell to ring so we could get out of here.

---

"Riiiiing!"

We heard the bell.

We said goodbye to our couch and walked to our classes.

First stop, English.

I walk inside the class and get greeted with 'hello's'and 'hi's'.

I sit on my normal table and wait for the teacher.

"Yo Y/n! Goodluck on the game tonight!" I heard Austin Mahone shout.
"Thanks bro!" I shouted back.

To be honest, I was one of the best players in the school and one of the best in Miami.

"Okay class. Today we're going to work in pairs, now, your work will be, writing about your feelings. Write about whatever you want but your partner has to guess or, try to guess who or what you wrote about." The teacher explained.

I groaned at her and she smiled cheekily at me.

Ms. Williams, our English teacher, knew I didn't like working with other people.
I like working alone.

"Come on Y/n!" She said.

I looked around me and searched for somebody that didn't have a partner.

Then, I saw her. Lauren Jauregui.

I had a tiny crush on her.

Chris, her brother plays basketball with me.

He's part of the school's basketball team and he's really good.

We're best friends.

I take my bag and walk to Lauren.

"Hey. Do you have a partner?" I asked.
"Nope." She answered.

"Would you like to be mine?" I asked.
"W-what? We don't even know eachother that well!" Lauren said with wide eyes.
"What?! Noooo. I mean, partners! Would you like to be my partner?" I asked panicking.
"Ohh. Sure." Lauren blushed.

I walked back to my table and took it with the chair and walked to Lauren's table.

"So. Let's start." Lauren said.

We started writing about whatever we wanted to write about.

I wrote about her.

---

We finished writing and we switched papers and read it.

"Brown eyes, plump lips, fit body, and 3 piercings. Who the hell could that be?" I asked myself.

I was starting to get frustrated.

"This is stupid." I mumbled.

"I like this girl a lot.
She doesn't notice me, but we talk when we get assigned as partners or when she hangs out with my brother.
It's sad because she will never feel the same." I read outloud whispering.

"You know, you shouldn't assume things. This girl might like you back." I told Lauren.
"I know. But I'm 100% sure that she doesn't like me. She's too good for everyone." Lauren said.

"Hey! You shouldn't assume either!" Lauren said reffering to what I wrote on my paper.
"Well, she doesn't like me back. I know that for a fact. Plus, her brother says she's straight!" I said.

---

"Class is over!" Ms. Williams said.

"If you didn't guess or you couldn't figure out what your partner wrote, do it at home." She added.

I was writing something down for Lauren but she called my name.

I looked up and our lips touched for the first time.

"Holy shit. I'm so sorry!" Lauren said blushing.
"No. It's okay. I was going to give you this, but I guess you don't need it." I said standing up with my bag and Lauren's paper.

"No! Give it to me!" Lauren shouted as I walked away.

I stopped and gave her the peice of paper and ran to my next class.

Lauren's pov.
"I like you. A lot. Just wanted to say that because I knew you couldn't guess who I wrote about. *cough* *cough* it's you. :)" the paper said.

"She likes me!" I mumbled to myself happily.

I ran to my dad's office and asked him for a favour.

Y/n's pov.
I was now sat in my History class learning about somebody I didn't really care about.

"Y/n Diaz. To my office." The principal said through the speakers.

I heard a round of 'ooh's' and I rolled my eyes at them.

I exit the room and I walk to the principal's office.

As I took the turn to the principal's office, I was pushed in to the janitors closet.

"What the hell?!" I said.

The person opened the lights and I saw that it was Lauren.

"Lauren?!" I asked shocked.
"Yeah." She said.

"I need to get to the principal's office!" I exclaimed.
"My dad doesn't need you. I asked him a favour and he asked you to come to his office but the plan was to get you in this closet with me." Lauren explained.

"Why?" I asked confused.

"I like you too." And with that, she kissed me.

The janitors closet might not be the most romantic place to share a kiss with your loved one,but I didn't care at the time.

"Girlfriends?" I asked as we pulled away from eachother.

"Girlfriends." She answered.
