Just when I thought my life could continue like a normal teenagers, I had to be proved wrong. Tom and I walked up the school steps, well, it was more like running. Tom slammed open the door and we ran down numerous hallways to get to our first class. When we rounded a corner, I slammed into somebody and nearly lost my balance. "Sorry!" I yelled back at the unknown person. Tom reached the door first and opened it; both of us reached our desks at the same time. Not even a second later, the tardy bell rang. We both sighed as our classmates laughed at us for nearly being late. The science teacher, Mr. Parsons, glared at us before beginning the lesson.
I looked over at Tom, who was grinning from ear to ear. A few seconds later a note landed onto my desk and I opened it. That was the closest we have ever been to recieving a detention in a week. I laughed, Tom could be so clueless sometimes.
After grabbing my pencil, I wrote back, Nice to see you are confident, but Mr. Parsons will probably want to talk to us after class. I threw the paper and hit Tom in the head with it to show I was basically calling him an idiot.
My friend wrote something else down before throwing it back to me. We can not stay after class! That will make us late for our next one! I looked over at Tom then shrugged. I knew that we may be late for our next class, but we arrived here before the bell rang. So, technically, we were not late. I done my best to pay attention to Mr. Parsons' long lecture, but he was just too boring. I sat there in a half daze counting down the seconds until this class would be over. Finally, the bell rang for us to go to our next class. Before Mr. Parsons could talk to me, I blended in with the crowd and escaped the room. Luckily, I was not late for my next class which was Spanish. Even though I was fluent in the language, I figured it would be an easy grade. After that class, we were allowed a forty-five minute break. Usually I walked around with Tom, but he was nowhere in sight, so I was left to walk alone until I found another familiar face.
Even though I was searching for a familiar face, I never expected to run into this person. After rounding a corner, somebody bumped into me and dropped their books onto the floor. "Sorry." I said and knelt to help the girl pick up the scattered books and papers. I grabbed the last book and gave it to her, "Sorry, I have been running into people all day."
"Well, it it a habit you need to break!" The girl snapped and looked up at me.
My heart froze along with my mind. I could not believe I had met this girl yet again. The last meeting I had with her had not went so well, in fact, I did not even really say goodbye. Actually, I knocked her out with a dart that came out of the spine of a Harry Potter book, but I had to keep her from revealing who I really was and what I did that day that saved both of our lives. "No way." I finally said, "Fiona Friend?"
