Jeremy let up and looked me in the eyes.
Your eyes become turquoise when you're happy. He said.
Well you make me happy. I said.
Do you want to do something after school? Jeremy asked.
Sure. I said.
Miss Salvatore, Mr. Gilbert, how many times do I have to tell you two to get to class? The principle asked.
I'm sorry Mr. Bremen. Jeremy and I were discussing something important. I said.
School is the most important thing right now. The principle said.
But you don't understand. I said.
Miss Salvatore I will see you in detention after school. The principle said.
What? Victoria is helping me with a problem! Why should she get detention? Jeremy asked.
In the halls after the bell, I will see you both of you in detention. Now get to class. He demanded.
Fine. I grumbled.
This was unfair! The principle wouldn't even hear me out!
You look really mad. Jeremy wrote.
I am. The stupid principle didn't even hear me out! I wrote back.
Mr. Gilbert, Miss Salvatore, is there something that you need to share with us? The teacher asked as she kept walking.
I looked over at Jeremy. I was getting in some trouble lately.
Hey Victoria, what do you want to do? Jeremy asked as he came over to me after detention.
I don't know. I would like to drop my book bag off at my house. Then we could go from there. I said.
Okay, whatever you want. He said.
Are you sure? It's sorta a long walk. I said.
Yeah, it's fine. He smiles.
Okay. I said.
Why me? Jeremy asked.
Huh? I asked confused.
Of all the guys at school. Why me? He asked.
The other guys at school are jerks. You're actual nice, you cared to know what was going on with me when my father was alive. You did;t make fun of me or ignore me. You cared even when no one else did. Besides I've always liked you and I think you're cute. I said.
If it isn't a sad emo couple. Someone said.
Sc'use me? I asked.
Where's the money? Another person asked.
I don't have any. Jeremy said.
Jeremy, what's going on? I asked.
Do you have any money on you? Jeremy asked.
No I don't have any money. I said confused.
Come on, give us something valuable! The guy demanded.
I started walking the other way. Pulling Jeremy with me.
We don't have anything. Jeremy said.
The girl has to have some kind of jewelry or something. The other person said.
Sorry, I don't have anything except for some school books. I said.
Toss em' here. He demanded.
I took my backpack off and threw it at him. Jeremy also threw his.
How fast are you at running? I asked quietly.
I don't know. Why? He whispered.
Just run! I said.
Jeremy took off running and I was right behind him.
Jeremy there's only one thing we want from you. The guy called out.
Jeremy stopped running and turned around.
Here take it. Jeremy said as he reached in his sock.
JHe pulled out something small. I couldn't really tell.
Here, this is the last of what I have. I've stopped doing it. So leave us alone. Jeremy demanded.
Right then a cop turned his light on and I knew we were busted.
Your eyes become turquoise when you're happy. He said.
