Ready or not

Jack made his way from the school across the parking lot. There were some kids sitting and standing around their cars as kids do. He didn't pay any attention to them. He walked under the arch that said Bladmore on it, he could hear the football team having practice. There's no way she could still be in the locker room if practice had already started, but what about the girls locker room?

That's a pretty dangerous thought there Jack he thought to himself. Even if she is in there by herself, what's gonna be his excuse when he walks inside. It's far more likely that it's just empty and Inez is somewhere else around school, or it's filled with half naked girls changing; which wouldn't be a good look on the second day of school.

At the moment he was out of options, as he turned leave the door to the girls locker room opened and out walked Inez with her cleaning cart. Shit was what he gonna say, he hadn't prepared for this.

"Jack?" Inez asked surprised to see him.

Why should he be nervous? It's just Inez? It's not like she's expecting anything of him. This a zero pressure situation Jack.

"Hey...Inez" he said still trying to come up with a good explanation.

"What are you doing here?" she asked like any normal person would.

Why not just be honest with her Jack? When has honesty ever been a bad thing? Yes this a very unusual situation, but what's the worst that could happen?

"I um..., " come on Jack just say it, "I was actually looking for you..." he stared down at the ground for a second and then back up at Inez.

It took a second for Inez to register what he said, and then it took her another second to understand what he actually meant.

"But why?" she asked, already knowing the answer the question.

"Are you going back inside?" Jack asked, ignoring the questions and continuing the foreplay. "You want me to push the cart for you?" He asked putting his hands on the back of the cart, initiating to walk forward.

"Oh," she said hesitantly, "Thanks," she said smiling at him. She didn't seem to mind him avoiding the question. It seemed she was enjoying the attention from a boy more than 10 years younger than her.
