"at four, why?" jahseh shut the locker and clasped his lock back onto the door before turning towards jamell again.
"do you wanna go to the arcade with me?" jamell pleaded. he expected to be rejected, as was commonplace when it came to talking to jahseh, but he received a pleasant surprise when jahseh nodded his head at the question, albeit reluctantly.
"sure," jahseh answered with a shrug. "sure, fine, whatever, it's not like i got shit else to do anyway. just text me the directions i guess."
jamell sported a wide cheshire grin, the corners of his eyes beginning to crinkle over because of how hard he smiled. "are you serious? like ion have to pay you or nothing?" he asked hopefully.
jahseh rolled his eyes. "yeah, now leave me alone for i change my mind," he turned around and began to walk towards the detention room, leaving an awestruck jamell standing in the hall just about ready to burst into song.
it was so easy to impress him.

when jahseh peeked through the rectangular glass panel in the otherwise opaque door, he almost said fuck it and turned back around to go catch up with jamell.
from what he could see, the other inhabitants of the detention were miles, maria, ayleks, michael, stokeley, rubi, jordan, and symere.
he really couldn't get away from that same ass group of people if he wanted to, and it was starting to get annoying. what were the odds that half of the people from the anonymous' list of targets all got detention on the same day? not to mention, gazzy also had detention and was probably on his way. was it a coincidence, or was it a karmic spell from the universe making sure that no matter what, the same group of teenagers would forever be linked to one another.
he didn't know what exactly it was, but he ain't like it.
just as the thought crossed his mind, his colombian housemate appeared behind him, pink and blonde dreads tied back and his sanrio backpack on his shoulders. he really was adorable, jah thought.
"i really wish we didn't have detention today," gazzy whined as he turned the door handle, "i wanted to eat ice cream and watch disney movies today."
"we can do it after i get home," jahseh whispered back, following his friend into the sweltering classroom, "i'm going out for a lil bit after this shit is over."
gazzy just nodded, taking a seat in the back of the classroom. jahseh made his way to where michael and stokeley were sitting, the two of them appearing to be in deep conversation judging by the way they both smiled.
as he made his way to the back, he couldn't help but notice how downright devastated symere looked as he sat alone, not even with miles, or rubi who was apparently his new best friend, pulling his long sleeved undershirt over his wrists every five seconds, as if he was scared people were looking. jahseh couldn't help but smirk to himself as he saw his former friend suffering. it was funny to him.
he wanted to laugh every time he overheard him whining about sheyaa's departure. symere was so pathetic, he placed his worth in whether or not he had a man by his side, and it showed. couldn't be me, jahseh thinks, giggling a little before sitting down.
"oh HELL NO!" jordan exclaimed, standing up from his desk and getting ready to cause yet another one of his scenes. "now jahseh ass in here too? fuck it, why don't all my opps come in here! omar and jahmier got detention too? might as well! i hate you niggas so much and i'm tired of seeing y'all everywhere i go!"
the room fell uncomfortably silent after jordan's out of nowhere rant, with the room torn between looking at him like he's lost his mind (which he has.) or letting out uncomfortable giggles as he stood there with a grimace on his face.
