I Become Amazing Mayzie

As I walk through the hallway, I enter the computer lab, hoping no one saw me. I sit down at the one in the back, the one in shadows that is hard to see. I turn it on and begin to type, wondering why today I tried to finish my homework the day before it's due. Oh yeah! That snake of a calculus teacher threatened me! Wee!

"It's hopeless" said a voice. "You said it, kid." I found myself call out. "Who's there?" the voice asked

"Me, Mayzie." I said. I turned to find my friend Natalie.

"Mayzie, are you… working?"

"Yeah, you wanna make somethin' of it?"

"No, I just never envisioned you… doing homework… early."

"Well Miss Slither decided to blackmail me today, so I'm gonna do my best and hope for a C!" I cried in false enthusiasm.

Natalie simply looked at me. "Why don't you push yourself a little more and at least try?" she asked.

"I do try, Nat." I said. She shot me a dirty look and returned to her work. "I guess you won't be able to open your valentines today, will you?"

I had forgotten that today was the valentine's party for 7th grade was today.

"Can you go to my room and get my bag for me, Nat?" I asked.

After Natalie went to my classroom and got my bag I dumped every thing on the ground and began digging through until I found Greg's. He is OBSESED with me. He follows me everywhere and it is a little creepy, to tell you the truth.

"What did Greg say this year?" asked Natalie

"You are truly my Amazing Mayzie." I quoted.

Natalie busted out laughing and I threw the Valentine into the trash can
