I opened the door. Without looking, I took a step in and fell. I don't know where. It was dark and cold. I closed my eyes tight. I tried to scream but nothing came out. I struggled to open my eyes. When I finally did, I was in my bed. 'It was just a dream...'
Just as I lay my head down, my alarm went off. "Damn it..." I whispered. I shut off my alarm and got out of bed. I showered, brushed my hair, and went downstairs.
I'm Ruby Marsh. I just moved to South Park Colorado. I have a sister, Shelley and a brother Stan. I'd been living with my aunt in Montreal, Canada. I did... something in school that caused her to decide she didn't want me to live with her. Now I live with my parents and Stan. Shelley moved out 3 months ago.
I felt sick. I didn't eat breakfast. I put on my pink chullo hat, which had a purple puffball on top. I waited for Stan and we left together. We waited for the bus. When three boys approached Stan grinned. "Hey, Stan!" The boy in the green ushanka said. "Hey Kyle. Hey Kenny. Hey Fatass." The fat boy turned red. "Ey! Don't insult me in front of your girlfriend," he said grinning evilly and looking at me. "Gross!" I yelled. "I'm his SISTER, fatass. Get the facts before you assume." He raised an eye brow and smiled. "Wow. Stanley, why ever can not you be more like your sister? You're just a wuss," he said. "Shut the hell up, Cartman," Stan said. Just then, the bus came. Cartman tried to go in first, but I pushed him out of the way. I wanted to be the first one in.
I took a seat in the middle, afraid of bumps in the back and weird stares in the front. Stan sat with Kyle in a seat across from me. I looked out the window. Pretty soon, we were at our last stop. When the doors were about to close, one boy came running. He had dark black hair and even darker eyes. The only seat left was the seat I was sitting at. He looked around. He looked at two boys and I heard him whisper "Dude, what the fuck?" to them. He looked at me and I looked at his eyes. "You can, uh, sit here," I said and moved over a bit. "Thanks," he said, smiling. He sat down. "Heh, nice hat," he said. I realized we hat the same hat, though his was blue with a yellow puffball. "Same to you," I said smiling. "I'm Ruby." "That's fuckin' crazy! I have a sister named Ruby. I'm Craig," he said blushing a bit. 'Wow. First day and I have a friend. Seems like we have a lot in common.'
When we finally got to the school, Craig, for some reason waited until everyone was out before getting up. We ended up walking in together. I took out my schedule and checked which class I had next. "Uh, Craig? Which room is 118?" I asked. "I have that class too. Just follow me." he replied.
We walked to the class and I tried my hardest to memorize the route. I looked at every door which practically made my brain explode. When we got to the classroom, he stopped at the door, allowing me to walk in first. I took a seat in the second row, kinda hoping Craig would sit next to me. I didn't sit in the back because I have always been a top student. And, fortunately, Craig sat next to me. We shared one table. The teacher was a balding man... in a dress and a brown wig. "Alrighty, cheeeldren. Heehehee!" he...er...she said. "This is your biology class." All she taught about was That 70's Show ratings. The class was over soon and we went through the rest of the day together. Me and Craig. At the end of the day, when I was about to get off the bus, I hugged Craig. "Thanks." I said quietly. I walked into the house smling.
