"SHIT," I shouted as Leo threw a ruler at my already bruised shoulder. "WHAT THE HELL LEO" he shouted at the laughing brunette. "Sorry sorry, it's just..."
"Just WHAT?!!" I shout. "Nothing it's nothing Jackson," Leo says getting up off the table he was sitting on. I get up as well and walk over to the door "we need to get going to English." Leo nods and follows me out of the room.
Me and Leo are room-mates not like living together, we just share a high school dorm room. Leo's one of my best friends, always has been so when we got the chance to share a dorm we jumped at it. I run my hand through my several times and twist my shoulder a bit, "you've really Broken my elbow, like I swear" Leo just laughs and says nothing as we continue to walk down the hall together. As we approach the end of the long hallway we begin to hear shouting "WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!?" And "THATS IT IM LEAVING." Was the last thing we heard before the door right to our left slammed open revealing a very pretty blonde girl, she sniffed at us and strutted away. While Leo's staring at the girls disappearing figure I turn my head to see our friend Tomas looking thoroughly pissed. "Lost another girl?" I ask he gives me the middle finger and walks out of his room to join us.
"Wow man what royal fuck up did you make this man, I mean she seemed pretty mad..." Leo trailed of as Tomas sent him a glare and said "her old boyfriend is back in town with a part in that big new movie and she needed an excuse to beak up with me to be with him. In the she found a pictureof me with my old girlfriend and accused me of cheating on her. And that led to what you just heard." He took in a deep breath and sighed "wait so you didn't do something wrong this time?" I ask "surprising it sounds like he didn't for once" Leo says in fake awe. Tomas doesn't say anything but looks at his feet saying something about "finding new fucking friends."
After walking around for another two or so minuets we reached our English room. "So final year guys, you ready?" Tomas smirks I ignore him and walk in. The first thing I see is a big interactive screen with a seating plan for all of us on it. There's also a big window running along the left wall with around 35 double desks facing towards it. When I look back at the seating plan and find my name I smile slightly, I'm sitting next to the one person I've ever had a crush on. Sid Preston. Sids a boy, yeah a boy, with messy blonde hair and thick eyebrows, he also wears black glasses but in a stylish way that I love. I walk towards my new desk and see him there playing on his phone, when I sit down he looks up and says "Hey Jackson, how's it going"
"Alright, what about you?"
"Same," He reply's. Just as I sit down our teacher walks in, she's a middle aged woman with VERY red hair pulled into a sharp bun. "Good morning everyone, I'm your new teacher miss higins, now open your text books to page 75 and do the 5 questions there as a warm up." Great a teacher who gives you work as a greeting perfect. I'm lost in my own thought as a feel a nudge to my side "Hey I forgot my text book, can I share with you?"
"Umm yeah sure." I say, as Sid begins to flick through the book looking for the right page I admire his face as sigh softly. "Found it!" He exclaims. I look at the question, 'read the paragraph above through and wright out all the similes and metaphors below.' After righting for around 10 minutes I feel like I'm being watched so I look up from my wok to see Sid staring at me with a happy look on his face. As soon as he sees me looking he runs a hand through his hair and says "shit sorry. Uh I was just wandering if you maybe wanted to go somewhere with me this weekend of something?" He asks hopefully. I sit the stunned Sid wants to go somewhere alone with me?! "uh sure ok, I mean yeah that'll be great " I stutter 'way to go Jackson 10/10' I think sarcastically "Great I'll give you my number after English."
"Cool" I say smiling. The rest of the lesson went by in a blur, so when it was over me and Sid walked out of the room together. We exchanged numbers and general information before he said "Anyways I gotta go now see you on Saturday" he said with a wave. "See ya." I said while grinning and watching him go.
This was going to be a good year.
