((Love this! The twist was so unexpected. I never thought Ace could switch personalities so fast, and never saw his bad side coming!))

"Hey, babe," Ace smiled. Anika smiled back and said, "Hey. How did you sleep?" Anika put her stuff in her locker. "I slept good. How did you sleep?" Anika froze. "I slept well," Anika forced a smile on her face. Little did Ace know that she didn't sleep well. She slept poorly because she was up all night thinking about how to break up with him without hurting his feelings terribly. As much as she loved him, she needed to focus on her studies instead of a boy who was Janus-faced.
After a minute of akward silence, Iris spoke up. "I'm gonna head to class. See you at lunch, Ika," Iris smiled. "See ya," Anika replied. As Iris left, Anika gulped. She knew that Ace's other side was about come out.
"Do you have my homework?" Ace said in a very rude demeanor. "N-no," she muttered. "Why not?" He yelled. When Ace yelled, everyone in the hallway, including teachers, turned to look at them. "I-I had to do my own homework," Anika said, on the verge of crying. "Do I look like I care? No, I am the quarterback!!! I need good grades to stay on the team. You're uslesss," Ace shook his head. Anika started crying. She stayed quiet.
After 5 minutes, she stopped crying. She took a deep breath and spoke up. "You know what? I'm tired of being treated like this! I am a independent women not a slave!!! You can take your homework and shove it. If you want good grades, then you need to pay attention and do your own work! I'm done,Ace Jones. You hear me? I can't believe I put up with you for 2 years without complaining."
