Chapter 5
Tessa and Jade were standing at their lockers talking, the boys walked down the hall starring in their direction. Luke had on faded jeans that hung on his hips, he wore a black polo shirt. Tommy was in long khaki cargo shorts and a white tee. Tessa looked around uncomfortably to see who was watching them, everyone in the hall was. Their smirks and gazes gave them away. “Check out the girls,” Tessa whispered to Jade “like they’re fresh meat or something.” Jade laughed and Tessa was annoyed. She grabbed her books for first period and was about to walk away when he grabbed her from behind and turned her towards him.
“ Good morning Tessa,” Luke said smiling at her, and then took her hand, “Can I walk you to class?” he asked smiling.
Tessa smiled, “Do you get this reaction often?” she asked looking down the hall.
He looked and laughed, “Tessa you’re dating the quarterback you’ll have to get used to it, let them look, only you can touch,” he kissed her hand, “Want to see them squirm? I’m going to kiss you.”
She didn ’t have a chance to respond, his hands were on her face and lips on hers before she had a chance to respond. He slipped his gum in her mouth with his tongue and gently pulled away starring in her eyes, “Check them out now,” he whispered in her ear.
He grabbed her books and then her hand and they walked through the gawking crowd of Luke groupies. She smiled as she looked down.
“You left something in my mouth” she said and laughed.
“ Tessa don’t say that,” he looked at her and smirked and Tessa looked confused.

Tommy took Jade’s hand, “Good morning pretty girl,” he said.
She hugged him, “Good morning.”
He took her books and they held hands walking down the hall.
At lunch the boys joined them and everyone stared, Jade and Tessa were embarrassed at first but seemed to be getting used to it. After practice they hung out for a bit and they gave them a ride to Tessa’s home.
On Wednesday Tessa went to her mother ’s after practice. She walked into the small two bedroom apartment and looked around. She wondered how she could choose to live like this. What the hell had happened to her? Her mom had made French onion soup and a large salad.
“ Tessa do you like that boy?” her mother asked.
“ Luke is my boyfriend mom,” she said blandly.
“ He is cute Tessa,” Maggie said, “Please remember what you were taught.”
“ I got it Mom, I’ll try to remember that and not that none of it means anything because after twenty years it won’t matter anymore,” she said sarcastically.
“ Tessa, you don’t know what I have lived for those years and I don’t expect you to be happy about it, I do however expect you to be respectful of me as your mother, and respectful of yourself always,” she said.
Tessa excused herself and went into the spare bedroom to do her homework. He sent her a text message.
