Class, one of the most stressful places to be in during the middle of your life when you're between being a kid, and growing up into a mature adult, a loathsome feeling between the schedule of the life you live in, and the time you have with your friends. The morning sun would beat down on the school-grounds where teenagers were either having interesting conversations, talking about the latest threads, playing like animals in the jungle, or simply relaxing and waiting for their buses and rides to arrive. Lunchtime was a disturbance, for each table had its own group of certain people with their own personal feelings and interests.
The converse shoes that Janis Ian was wearing were growing sore on her feet, grew a clash in comparison to the sneakers that all of the boys were wearing or the high-heeled flip-flips or preppy sneakers that the other girls would wear. It didn't really bothered her of how different she was compared to the rest of the girls, other than the feelings she had whenever someone would call her a "bitch" or accused her of being a lesbian that Regina George had always thought of her as. Janis' life had been a living hell for her since Regina became popular and it was until after she used her friend Cady against her that she realized that she was not more of the jerk than she nor anyone else would ever be, and was feeling guilty for it.
The autumn breeze blew against her black hair as she waited for her friends to come along, and hang out with her to help her with her homework since it was after school. The bell rung tremendously in her ears that caught her attention that school had ended for the day, and that she would soon see Cady and Damian again.
Suddenly, she felt a sensitive touch that pierced her skin through that of her Hot Topic shirt. She turned to find Damian, without Cady facing her with a complete grin on his face, with a blue polo shirt on with his jeans that made him look large but metro. Janis wasn't surprised to see him, but found it really unexpected for him to come along without Cady by his side.
"Where's Cady?" she asked.
"I couldn't help it but leave her behind with Aaron," he said. "She said she wanted some sort of privacy with him."
"So did you convince her to come with us?" she asked.
"Yeah, and she seriously wants some privacy all to herself and Aaron it seems," Damian replied.
Forgetting the subject, she asked, "Well how was your last class?"
"You mean gym? Oh, that class really sucks, I mean there's these newly freshman girls, are totally resembling themselves as the 'Plastics.'"
"Not again," Janis murmured to herself.
"So want to see what's up with them, I mean it could be anything?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
"But what if they don't want to do homework with us?"
"Then we'll figure something out, like you know, do it in the cafeteria."
"It's closed."
"So?"
Damian shrugged, and said, "Ok."
The two the walked off into the school, hoping to find Cady, if it was ever possible to, for they never know if she were going to be in one of the bathrooms stripping down for Aaron or would she? Janis fondly accepted that Cady had a boyfriend, but hoped that she didn't lose any chances doing well in her classes.
