I try to reeve the car engine but still is not working. I groaned as I hit the steering wheel. Why can’t this car just turn on?
"Still working on the car?" I jumped as Tyler's face appear on the window next to me. "You scared me," he smirked as I glared at him. I open the car door and got out. "Still not working?"
"No, I don’t know what is wrong."
"Come on, I’ll help." He opens his leather jacket and placed it on the chair. He took the wrench to open the part of the engine. The two of us start working while discussing the minus part of the car. "So you’re not going anywhere today?"
"Nope, my friend asked me to join them to go shopping for a dress for homecoming but I decline and said I’m busy."
"Why?"
"Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy shopping but I rather spend hours in the garage than walking around from store to store for hours."
"I thought you are the type of

Valerie Hernandez"Val," I looked up and saw Julia is making her way to my locker. I smile and waved my hand to her. She then stood in front of me looking excited. "You look radiant, what’s the matter?""I found the perfect dress for me yesterday." I raised my eyebrow at her. "You are excited because of a dress?""Yeah but my excitement is mainly because of a certain someone.""Who’s that person?""I met a cute guy yesterday at the mall and we just clicked." She said excitedly. I looked at her surprised but broke into a smile. "Well I am happy for you Julia," I hugged her. "Thank you, I will bring him to meet you guys sometimes or we can go out on a double date, how’s that?

Valerie Hernandez"Come on Val! I didn’t mean it." I ignore andy as I make my way to the cafeteria. "Val!" a few students are looking at us weirdly because Andy kept calling my name. "I’m sorry!"I stop walking and turned around suddenly which almost make Andy crash to me but luckily, he managed to steady himself. "What the hell Andy! You threw a freaking paper ball and asked what happend? Why couldn't you text me instead of throwing a paper? What is this the 16 centuries?""Okay, okay, I’m sorry. I’m just curious and thought that you wouldn’t open your phone." I hissed at him. "Because of your thoughts, I nearly get detention." Turning around, I continue my walk to the cafeteria. As I arrived at the cafeteria, I drop my bag on the table with a pissed of looked.

Valerie Hernandez "Where Should I hang this?" I asked one of the comittee. "Just hang it there but you need one more person to help you." "Okay, I'll go ask for help." She nodded then continue to give a pointer to the other students. I bring the very long tassel to the corner then laid it down on the floor. Now all I need is a ladder. "Need some help?" A voice starled me from behind. I jumped and put my hand on my chest. Turning around, I glared at the person. "What the hell? Do you always do that?" "Do what?" "Scared me!" "Oh... you were starled? I didn't know." he said innocently and I hissed at him. "What are you doing here anyway?" I narrowed my eyes at him. "Don't tell me..." "If you're thinking that I'm following you, you're thinking too much." I rolled my eyes. "Who knows, maybe you're obssesed with me." I bent down to pick up the tassel. "If you're not followi

Valerie Hernandez"You're done with your friend's car?" Trevor asked as he came walking in. "Not yet though, seems like he presses the brake too hard and it causes the brake pads to wear down.""Can you fix it?""I can but I can't finish it now. Maybe tomorrow.""As long as your friend is okay with

Valerie Hernandez"So... how's my car doing?" I turned to Andrew who slides next to me. I put my food down then swallowed. "About your car, I thought that it is not that bad like probably a day everything will be settled. But I was wrong, your brake pads are broken so it needs to be changed and I don't think today or tomorrow is done.""Why?" He said scrunching his eyebrow. "Because today, I have to help the others to decorate for homecoming. A part of my detention, remember? Then, tomorrow is the day of the playoffs and I do not want to miss it. So your car will be done on Monday or Tuesday, I guess.""Can it be done a little faster?""Well, it can if I took a night shift." Slowly a grin appeared on his face. "Then take the night shift."
The New Bad Boy Um...I..
Valerie Hernandez "I'm going, mom," I said as I pick up the trash. I walked out with the trash bag in my hand. I dump the trash inside the garbage bin. I dusted my hands then looked up only to see Tyler just arrived. He walked out of his car without noticing me standing outside. "Oi," I called him. He turned around then raised his eyebrow. "Where have you been?" I asked. "Practice." I furrowed my eyebrow. "Till 6?" He nods. "Wow, no wonder you look like shit." He rolled his eyes and ignore me. That's strange, he usually always made a snarky remark at me. That's so unlike him. "Hey, are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a little tired."

Valerie HernandezMy eyes fluttered open as I heard the birds chirping. I sat up, yawning while stretching my limbs. I slid my feet off from my bed then do my morning routine. Opening my wardrobe, I took the clothes that I first laid my eyes on. A pair of skinny jeans and a white hoodie. Wearing my white sneakers, I grab my bag from the couch and sling it to my shoulder. After I'm done, I head downstairs to the kitchen. Dad is facing the stove making breakfast. I plopped down the stool. "Morning dad,""Morning sweetie." He replied without glancing at me as he flips the pancakes he's making. "I thought you're already head to the diner.""I decided to take a day off.""And who will watch the diner?"

Valerie Hernandez "Aren't you guys excited for today's game?" Carmen said excitedly as we made our way inside our rival school. Julia and I shared a looked before chuckling. "You said that because you want to check out the guys right?" Julia said. Carmen faces us while walking backward. "No, who said that. I'm here to cheer our team. Go whales!!" She shouted and people around us looked at us weirdly. "Okay, you can save the energy for later though," I said while chuckling. I then pulled her arm. "How about you Val, aren't you excited to see your boyfriend playing?" Carmen tilt her head to face me. "Yeah, of course, I am," I reply as I shoot her a small smile. "Aw... you two are the sweetest couple," Carmen said. The three of us head inside the gym that is now packed with a lot of people. I saw the students from our school painted their cheeks yellow and black. They also wear basketball jerseys. Same as our school rival, the leopards.

The New Bad Boy I forgive you
Valerie HernandezThe past few days had been surprisingly okay. Everything seemed to be falling into place, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over me. I was happy that I was no longer fighting with Tyler, and even Liam had admitted his wrongdoings and apologized. It was a welcome change, and I was grateful for the peace that had settled over. However, I don’t know about Tyler and Liam. But it seems like they haven’t gotten over the fight yet. Tyler broke Liam nose and even after a week, the bruised is still visible. Whereas Tyler only had a small cut on his lips and bruised knuckles, but the rest is fine.Liam and I no longer shared the same table at lunch, but we still acknowledged each other with a small smile or a simple "hey" as we passed in the hallways. It was a far cry from the tension that had once existed between us, and I was glad that we had finally been able to move past it.Then there was Tyler. Despite still having detention, he was finally back at scho
The New Bad Boy Damn!
Tyler WilliamsThe next day dawned with a heavy sense of regret weighing on my shoulders. As I tried to approach Valerie, she quickly avoided me, slipping away before I could even say a word. Even at school, she managed to evade me, leaving me feeling like a complete idiot.I couldn't shake the guilt that gnawed at me. My behavior had been completely uncalled for. Valerie had been there for me yesterday, worried about me, and instead of being grateful, I had pushed her away like some kind of jerk.The next day was no different. I woke up early, hoping to catch Valerie before she left for school, but it seemed she had gone with her dad again, slipping through my fingers once more. Another missed opportunity to talk to her, to make things right.Feeling frustrated and desperate, I headed to the auto shop to see if Trevor could help me. I needed to know Valerie's work schedule, but when I asked Trevor, he refused to tell me. Apparently, it was at Valerie's request."Come on, Trevor," I p
The New Bad Boy Regret
Tyler WilliamsI waved my hands triumphantly from inside my car, a wide, arrogant smile plastered on my face as the host announced me as the winner. The crowd roared with excitement as I drove my car out of the rink, the adrenaline still coursing through my veins.As soon as I stepped out of the car, a familiar voice called my name with a tone that sent shivers down my spine. I turned to see Valerie marching towards me, her expression a mix of anger and concern. Behind her were Ryan and Trevor, trying to catch up to Valerie.I felt a surge of shock and confusion. How did Valerie know I was here? And why did she look so angry? It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how she found out, with Ryan and Trevor standing right behind her.I sighed heavily as Valerie stood in front of me, her eyes blazing with anger. She wasted no time in scolding me, her words coming out furiously."Do you have any idea how crazy that was, Tyler?" she demanded, her voice trembling with emotion. "Do yo
The New Bad Boy Welcome to the Death Rink!
Valerie HernandezAs I continued working on the car in the auto shop, I lost track of time, engrossed in the task at hand. Suddenly, Trevor appeared beside me, his voice breaking through the quiet hum of the workshop."Valerie, it's past your working shift," he said gently. "It's time for you to go home."I smiled at him, shaking my head slightly. "It's fine, Trevor," I replied, my voice soft with reassurance. "I just want to finish up here."Trevor approached me, leaning against the side of the car I was fixing. "Are you waiting for Tyler to come back?" he asked, his eyes searching mine for answers.I placed the tools I was holding on the workbench and let out a sigh. "Yeah," I admitted, my voice tinged with worry. "I just want to make sure he's okay after everything that's happened."I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had settled over me ever since Tyler's outburst earlier. Between his suspension, the news of his father getting married to Liam's mother, it felt like Tyler w
The New Bad Boy It takes two to start a fight
Valerie Hernandez"Tyler! Liam! Stop!" I screamed their name hoping for the fight to stop but it is no use. My voice drowned with the shouting and cheering from the students who gather at the parking lot to witness a fight."Both of you stop!" I tried once again but it is no use. None of them could hear me over the roar of the crowd. The cheers and shouts are getting louder. But amidst the chaos, I could only watch in horror as the fight escalated, my heart pounding in my chest. As the fight grew more serious, panic gripped me like a vice. I watched helplessly as Tyler and Liam continued to exchange blows, each one landing with sickening thuds. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes as I pleaded for them to stop, but my words fell on deaf ears.Just as I feared the worst, a teacher emerged from the school building, shouting for them to stop. The fight came to an abrupt halt as Tyler and Liam were pulled apart, their faces bruised and bloodied."You two, to the principal's office, now

Valerie HernandezThe next morning, I felt a wave of delight rush over me. Despite the lingering weight of yesterday's events, there was a warmth in my chest as I recalled the laughter and camaraderie shared with Tyler. But the memory of him betting on me soured the sweetness, reminding me of the reckless gamble he had made with my safety. Since he apologize, it is all in the past now and what happened had happened. Luckily, my parents are a deep sleeper so last night as I sneaked in, it was safe to say, for now.I glanced at the clock beside my bed, with a quick stretch, I threw back the covers and swung my legs over the edge of the bed, ready to face the day ahead.After a quick shower and a change of clothes, I made my way downstairs to the kitchen, the scent of freshly cooked pancakes wafting through the air. My dad was at the stove, flipping pancakes with practiced ease, a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips as he caught sight of me."Morning, sweetheart," he greeted m
The New Bad Boy Are you jealous?
Tyler WilliamsI watched as Valerie walked away, her back stiff with anger. Winning the race had been exhilarating, but the argument with Valerie had left a bitter taste in my mouth. I knew that my actions hadn't portrayed me as a winner, not in her eyes at least.Valerie had made a good point earlier. What if I hadn't won? What would have happened to her? It wasn't like I had wanted to bet on her in the first place, but illegal street races were rough, and you had to follow the rules, no matter how unfair they seemed.I knew that I had messed up."You okay man?" Ryan asked as he saw Valerie leaving. I shrugged my shoulders, letting out a heavy sigh. "Not great," I admitted, running a hand through my hair. "Valerie has every right to be mad at me."Ryan nodded in understanding; his expression somber. "Yeah, anyone would feel the same way if they were in her shoes," he agreed, his tone sympathetic.Trevor chimed in, his voice firm but gentle. "You need to apologize to her, Tyler," he s

Valerie HernandezAs the race was set and the crowd erupted in excitement, I felt a knot of anxiety tighten in my chest. The stakes had never been higher, and the thought of me being used as a bet in Ricky's twisted game made my blood boil. What I did not expect was Tyler agreeing to it.Before the race could start, I grabbed Tyler's arm and pulled him aside, my voice filled with frustration. "Why did you agree to bet me, Tyler?" I demanded, my tone sharp with accusation.Tyler sighed heavily, his expression pained as he met my gaze. "It's the only way, Val," he explained, his voice tinged with regret. "If I don't agree, Ricky will take my car and besides, it's the rules."I shook my head in disbelief, unable to comprehend how Tyler could have made such a reckless decision. "I can't believe you would risk everything like this," I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper.But before I could say more, Jae and Ryan approached us, their expressions tense with anticipation. "Tyler, the ra
The New Bad Boy What the heck Tyler?!
I paced restlessly around my room, the weight of anticipation settling heavily on my shoulders. Through the window, I could see the faint glow of lights illuminated from Tyler's room. It seemed he was still awake, just as I suspected. With a deep breath, I glanced down at my outfit, making sure everything was in place. I had come prepared, dressed in jeans, a white tank top, and a denim jacket, paired with sturdy black boots.I sat on the edge of my bed, anxiously checking the time every few minutes. Fifteen agonizing minutes passed before the lights in Tyler's room finally flickered off. It was my cue to make my move.With careful precision, I tiptoed down the stairs, doing my best to avoid any creaks that might wake my parents. As I reached the front door, I hesitated for a moment, my heart pounding in my chest. But I couldn't let fear hold me back now. Steeling myself, I pushed open the door and stepped out into the cool night air.I made my way swiftly to Tyler's house, my footste
