The football team wasn't much better either, except maybe for Tyler and that asshole Brian. They just didn't have the talent that they had back in Florida, or at least so he thought. The coach was a first class moron, and he doubted if the jerk even knew the difference between a post pattern and a crossing route. Fuck, what did his lame mother get him into? Why couldn't she just stay in Florida instead of moving out here? Least she could have let him finish out the year there; but no, not her, he had to come with her and so he was stuck.
The sound of his mother's angry voice was getting on his nerves and he thought about just slipping out the window again, going for a walk to let his anger settle; but he couldn't go, not until he heard her head to her room, then maybe he could take off. He still didn't understand why he couldn't have stayed with his father, at least until the school year was finished, but she wouldn't hear of it. Man did she ever throw a fit when he had suggested it, and he hated all this divorce shit. No wonder his dad went looking elsewhere, she was such a bitch.
Justin turned over in his bed and stared at his desk and computer. He saw the English books and his eyes narrowed a little. He should at least try but it was just not his thing; and back in Florida, it was different, not so damn detailed. He knew that his teacher, twit something or other, was going to get him some peer tutoring; which was all he needed, to be made to look like some stupid jock, but better than failing he guessed.
Thinking about school, his mind wandered to the girl who sat behind him, she was a real looker, but he had already found out she was Tyler's girl, and so hands off. Besides, he liked Tyler, he didn't come across as arrogant or stuck up like Brian the sidekick did. Besides, you had to be friendly to the guy who threw the football, or at least hoped he would. California was still stuck in the ice age, run run run was their motto, while in Florida it was air it out; but supposedly this school was different, or so Tyler said. He'd have to wait and see but he didn't hold out much hope.
