Macy and Elijah-Chapter 1
"Hail The Torres" I said as I ran to Adam and gave him a hug.
"Well, look at you, Ms. Macy Stevens at Degrassi" he smiled and I punched his arm.
"So do you think I'll fit at Degrassi?" I raised my eyebrows as I nudged his shoulder.
He began to stroke his chin, illustrating that he was in his train of thought, "Well if you're the type of girl that loves drama, like a boyfriend crashing his car, having the school in lockdown because of a crazed shooter, or having your best friend kiss your boyfriend, then yes this is the perfect school for you."
I stood staring at Adam; I couldn't believe so much drama could exist in high school. I'd heard about Adam getting shot but…wow…I mean I wasn't aware of any of the details.
"Well you know me Adam, I'm not really drama"
"Yeah I know" he said as he took me by the shoulder and we entered Degrassi.
My schedule was a scrambled egg of different causes ranging from advanced English to basic math. I also got the class that for so long I was desperate to take, swimming. Lunch came after my physics class; I qualified for free lunch in which I got to choose between a cheese sandwich and a beef pizza. I chose the pizza; it honestly looked the most sanitary. After I got out the line with my pizza and peach slices I walked into the crowd of benches and people. I was about to sit in a nearby bench when I saw Adam wave for me to go to his location.
I walked over, my flats making a funny noise, while my handbag rocked back and forth.
When I got to where Adam was sitting I became aware he wasn't alone, there next to him was a green eyed boy, dressed completely in black. He was sitting oblivious to the fact that I had arrived, clearly reading one of those viscous and bloody comic books.
I sat under the shade of the tree, happy I had brought my black tights with my pink dress. "So how are your classes?" Adam said, as he took a bite from his beef burrito, clearly a snack bought at the food shack. "They're alright, Im eager about tomorrow though, that's when I start my swimming course" I said as I took a spoonful of diced peaches.
Finally the green eyed boy looked up from his book, he began to examine me, I common thing most people did when they saw me. He smirked when he saw my outfit, "Really, you must be a fighter, wearing a pink dress and sitting under a tree with the school misfits" he said in a mocking tone.
I was amazed I didn't know this guy, but he sounded pathetic, the first words he spoken when I'd been there almost fifteen minutes were to criticize my dressing skills.
I gave him a furious glare, "Look, I don't know who you are and I usually don't judge a book by it's cover but you just pathetic, if you want some one to feel sympathy over you well tell someone else your story and your cocky comments".
I got up from the ground, dusted off my dress, grabbed my handbag and walked away. I knew they were both watching me and that I had left my lunch tray on the ground, but it was too late to return, I would go afterschool to Adam's to apologize.
