I walked to school thinking back on the weekend it was a bore and I had nothing to do I wasted time in my living room all alone. I watched TV but my mind was really on this one thing. One guy if I must. His name was Quil Ateara, his friends have joined Sam gang so he seemed to mope around school he really didn't have any one and I selected myself to become his friend. Well I will admit that I have this little crush. It was probably the reason why I actually even came up with this plan. I had a tid bit of information. See Mr. Brammer changed his seating chart for seventh period and word is when the idiots Jacob Black and Embry Call came back tomorrow that our seating charts in science will change. I also have good word that I will be the new lab partner of a certain Quil Ateara. So on Sunday night my mother Carmin Daniels was cooking our dinner and my father Lloyd Daniels was in his study reading the paper while listening to some nice smooth jazz. Now me Carmelita Daniels, I'm straitening my hair after a good hot shower. See if you hadn't noticed I'm half Hispanic and black. My papa is black and my mama is Cuban on her papa's side and Puerto Rican on her mama side. Now my hair is soft thanks to my papa but it gets a slightly puff to it when wet a down side of it all. Thanks to my mama it gets a sleek texture when straight. When my hair was done I ran down stairs to see my mama.
"I did my hair the right way right?" I asked as my mama stirred something in her pot she motioned with her finger on her other hand to spin. So I spread my arms out and turned slowly.
"Yes mi hija now go get your papa ready for dinner" she said
I ran to get my father and heard him on the phone so I knocked twice and shut his door and ran back to the kitchen. I sat down and my father came down the hall to sit at the table with me. My lug of a brother was at college for some test he pulled a crammer for. He had been there since Friday. My mother isn't really fond of him missing our Sunday family dinners but since this was because of a test I think she let it go. We ate dinner and talked about the upcoming of the week. This is just fancy for I was trying to convince my mom and dad to let me stay home. It was to no avail she just sent me to bed and I went to sleep kinda excited Quil Ateara here I come.
I walked up the steps of the school which I was kind of prolonging because the plan seemed so simple yesterday you know. Now I'm having a mini panic attack that I just can't control. I opened the door and took a deep breath and walked down the hall ways few kids stood here and there talking in their little groups and talking to friends. I went to my friend who usually go stand in front of my locker. I arrived down the hall and my best guy friend wolf whistled and I blushed.
"Hey sexy you finally straightened your hair and look at you in a skirt" Alex said
"Whatever you're just mad because I have great legs" I giggled
"Don't I know it" he mumbled
See Alex he's bi and I'm the reason he turned that way as a kid he always noticed guys and said he's gay but since growing up he's totally bi because he will look at a girl and flirt with her and he say that he kinda has attraction to females. I just called him confused because he likes to fuck anything with legs. We came to a conclusion that we weren't right for each other it just wouldn't go past physical attraction were weren't compatible.
"So Lita have you grown enough balls to actually talk to Quil today now that you look all sexy" Alex asked
"Maybe" I mumbled and laughed
"Yeah well the twins and I well be at our table at lunch if the plan is successful bring hot cakes with you" he said and walked off to class
I looked at the clock on the wall and saw we only had three minutes before the first bell rung. I opened my locker and put my bag down grabbing my afternoon text book I had and put them in my locker and took out my morning books and I heard the locker next t o me open and my heart went into hyper drive. I peeked over and there he was Quil Ateara. I took a deep breath and slung my bag over my shoulder and closed my locker. I glanced over again and saw that he was slumped on the lockers. See this is the time were we say hi and go on our way. I haven't ever had a full conversation with him.
"Hey Quil you look so sad smile I'm sure it will make it better if you do" I said softly
He looked up and smirked but never reached his eyes they seemed still in despair. He looked like everything he loved had been snatched from him. I guess it had you know his best friends had been taken away. He looked like he just given up and nothing would do. This gave me the confidence I knew that if this didn't go thru I would be the main one who would hate if he actually followed his friends and join them in there with Sam.
"Hey what's wrong" I frowned
"Nothing I mean my friends left me to be in a gang that doesn't want me around after the two weeks I thought they could have been dead" he said
"I know that but the best thing for you to do is make them think you're having fun without them" I said
"Why would I do that I'm miserable I have no one" he sighed
"You have no other friends that you can spend time with" I asked
"No other the times when I talk to you I don't have any one else other than Jacob and Embry" he said
"Well you're in luck" I said "we can walk to class together and try to be at least a little happy"
He smiled but it didn't seem to put a twinkle in his eye like it did when we were kids. We walked down the hallway to the classroom on the right. Mostly everyone was here except the teacher. On the board was new sitting arrangements in big letters. I saw Quil quickly stiffen and he seemed kinda of mad. There was this shiver down his back and his hands were in fist.
"Quil it fine may be you will sit with me" I murmur
We walked in and I put my bag on the first table and waited on the teacher. Who walked in a few minutes later. He stood at his desk at the front of the class. He started calling out names and what a coincidence I'm with Quil Ateara. The two idiots that I shall not name are with each other in the back of the room do to a strange growth spurt.
"Mr. Brammer Mrs. Torrez needs help with the smart board she is trying to pull up the seating chart" said this tiny freshman
"Wow the three stogies are separated no one thought it could happen" Angie smirked
"Shut up maybe he has realized that he was just cooler or needs a better friend" I said
"Yeah and he chose you" she huffed and turned head
I stood up and climbed on the table see people loved me I was prettier than Angie and a lot nicer.
"Okay Quil and the two idiots back there are no longer friends he has decide that they are not worthy of his friendship and know I'm his bestie and the other two can go jump off a cliff" I said
"Aright Ms Daniels are you finished then get off the table" Mr. Brammer chuckled
I jumped off and the whole class was giggling. The other two glared at me. I just thought you can't stop me now.
