“I do have a life, you know,” I blurt out. He rolls his eyes. “Why don’t you just have one of the Bs or maybe those dumb chicks that give him morning blow jobs help out?”

He shakes his head, getting irritated. “Didn’t you hear what I said? Someone who’ll teach him and not be a distraction. Those girls are distractions.” It’s nice that my brother thinks so highly of me though. Insert sarcasm. He basically just told me I’m a super brain, but homely enough that he won’t have to worry about his little quarterback falling for me.

Fuck, I can’t deal with my brother right now. I stand up, taking my plate to the sink and sigh. “Fine. Have him find me tomorrow so we can set up some kind of schedule or something.” I’ll just add this favor to the list. Favor number 48,963. One day maybe I’ll have enough favor credits I can knock off a bunch of banks or kill someone and he’ll have to take the wrap for me. “I’ve gotta get going to my practice.”

He doesn’t say anything though, he just continues scarfing food while I go outside to wait for Clementine to pick me up.

CHAPTER 3

Collin-

“So here’s your buddy bag. There are lots of goodies in there and maybe a couple of coupons for some fun stuff,” she whispers huskily.

I peak into the bag, seeing one I wanna cash in. “Hmm. I thought I was supposed to get this on Fridays. Maybe we can cash in one of those right now,” I say, leaning into her ear. As I pull back, she nods eagerly. Taking her hand, I pull her to a stairwell that goes out to our band room. No one ever uses it anymore. Before I have time to say anything, she’s working my belt loose, unbuttoning and unzipping my pants. She’s on her knees with me in her mouth before I can think straight.

I lean back against the wall, closing my eyes and just enjoying the feel, when suddenly I hear the door at the bottom of the stairs open, slamming against the bar behind it. I jump. “Shit,” I say as I snatch Ciara up and stuff myself in my pants.

I look up to see a windblown Joelle Prescott, James’s sister, giving me a sickened stare. She’s wearing a frumpy t-shirt with some local band o

n it and a baggy pair of jeans. Her dark hair hangs in a loose ponytail at the base of her neck, a few fly away pieces shielding some of her face. We’ve gone to school together our entire lives, but I don’t really know much about her. She’s always been quiet and reserved. Ciara shakes her head and rolls her eyes while wiping the edge of her mouth. “Jeez, Joelle, you know how to ruin a good time, don’t you?” She makes the motion like she’s shooing her. “Go on. This is a grown-up zone.” She cocks her head to the side, poking her bottom lip out.

Joelle shifts her backpack on her shoulder and gives us both a look that says ‘fuck you’. “Sorry, I wasn’t aware you’d started conducting business in here, Ciara. I thought you pretty much stuck to the dugout, locker room and truck stop. I’ll be sure to add stairwells to that list,” she says so matter of fact that it’s funny as she walks away. I start laughing and Ciara gets pissed.

“Ugh, she’s such a fucking goodie goodie. How she’s James and Janae’s sister I’ll never understand.” She sighs.

“Janae, as in her little sister? Isn’t she in like the seventh or eighth grade?” I ask, confused.

“Yeah, eighth, but she’s a cheerleader so I’ve hung out with her some when we work with the younger kids. She’s way cooler and a lot more fun than Joelle,” she says with distain dripping from her mouth when she says Joelle’s name.

I shrug. “Well, I need to go anyway. I actually have to meet with her brother. I’ll cash that in later.” I tug at the tip of her ponytail.

I make my way to the library and see James sitting at a table talking to someone. He looks pissed, but there is a shelf in the way so I can’t see who he’s talking to. Rounding the corner of the book shelf, I freeze. He’s talking to Joelle. She’s probably telling him what she just walked up on. Fuck. He’s gonna kick my ass. I would kick my ass if I had a sister and she walked in on that.

Before either of them realize I’m there, I hear her say, “Why am I always the one stuck doing you favors? I have a bunch of stuff going on. Can’t you just find someone else?” She sighs, “I do have a life, you know, of my own. It’s not one like yours but it is a life.”

“No, Jo, you told me you’d do it.” Just then they realize I’m there.

James stands up. “Hey, Collin. You know my sister, Joelle. She’s gonna be your tutor.”

Fucking A.
