miserable from now on.”
    She stood on her tippy toes. Her moist lips were just a fraction away from his.
    “ I'll make it up to you.”
    Jay swallowed hard.
    The next moment someone outside violently sprang the door open and light invaded the dark room. Jay put his hand over his face. His heart exploding with dread.
    “ You're getting action in the janitor's closet on your first day? . . . You're bad, man.”
    He lowered his arm and saw Rick grinning at him.
    “ Don't worry, Berkley's gone.” he said. “I watched the whole thing from the end of the hallway.”
    Leaf stepped out into the hallway. As she walked past Rick he looked down and stole a peak at her behind. He turned back to Jay and shook his head. “You're bad, man. Bad ass bad.”
    The three of them stood alone in the hallway.
    Leaf turned to Rick, “What were you doing watching us anyway?”
    “ I got to patrol these hallways for an hour every afternoon. He pointed to the small School Captain badge pinned to his shirt. “Duty calls.”
    “ Stalking calls is more like it,” she replied.
    “ OK, fine. I admit it. I was keeping an eye out for the new guy. God knows he needs someone looking out for him. Your boyfriend nearly ripped his head off at lunch.”
    “ He's—” she moved closer to Rick and lifted her knee into his crotch, “ not my boyfriend.”
    Rick howled, although it was more for theatrical reasons. She hardly used any pressure. She had done worse to others, much worse.
    The Red Fox didn't seemed fussed. She twirled once and began to stroll down the hallway.
    Rick pulled himself back upright. “Listen,” he said, “there's something you really got to know about her.”
    “ More than one thing, I bet,” Jay said. He was about to chase after her when Rick jumped in front of him and grabbed his shirt.
    “ Hey, lover boy, you want to let this one go. She's a bad seed.”
    “ What's so bad about her?”
    “ I know what you're thinking. Your watching that steel-cap ass strolling off, and you're right, her ass is bad. Even a blind man could see that. But I'm not talking about the good kind of bad, I'm talking about the bad kind of bad, and trust me, she's got plenty of bad bad in her life.”
    Jay ran his hand through his hair.
    “ Yeah, OK. I'll take your word for it.”
    “ Good.” Rick looked relieved.
    A second later Leaf called out from down the hall. “What are you waiting for?”
    Jay stared down at her, then to Rick, then back to Leaf.
    “ Nothing. I'm coming.”
    He shrugged his shoulders at his tour guide and ran down the hall. He wanted to know why that first glance was so intense. What was it about her that drew him in so powerfully?
    Rick watched them leave. He shook his head, turned around and walked toward the opposite exit.
    “ This is bad,” he said to himself, “This is bad bad.”

    “ Hey Berkley, what's up with Leaf? Did you guys break up?” Brick asked.
    “ Nah, we're just fighting. You know how it is, girls are always looking for a fight. I'm just playing along.”
    They were on their third lap around the field. The big game was next weekend and the coach was pushing them into overdrive. Brick was the other forward, and hung next to Berkley at the back of the pack.
    “ What the deal with New Guy?”
    “ You mean the skinny kid you pinned against the wall at lunch?”
    “ Yeah, you know anything about him?” Berkley asked.
    “ I've heard a few rumors. He's a New Yorker. Moved here last week. Lives with his aunt and uncle out in Fonder's Estate.”
    “ Why'd he move? Parents die or something?”
    “ Don't know.”
    “ He's a pervert in any case. Dirty pervert.” Those words were rather ironic, considering who was speaking them. Berkley was the biggest pervert in school.
    “ I heard he saw Leaf naked today.”
    Berkley nodded his head. His mind was in a rage. Her naked creamy skin fresh in his mind. Her rounded breasts once hot in his hands, now burned in his mind. The Red Fox dancing
