Savannah's Love, and Derek's Mistake
It's the first day of high school. Savannah didn't know what to think. "Here I was in Mrs. Caudill's room not two and a half months ago, and now I'm in frigging high school! What the hell man?" Savannah was screaming with confusion and anger inside, but on the outside she was emotionless. "HEY SAVANNAH! Get your ass over here and start talking to me or I'm disowning you!" Pauli Katherine exclaimed with a smile on her face. Savannah knew Paula Katherine was only kidding when she said that. So she goes over to her best friend and starts a conversation. "Well girl, what do you think about us finally being Freshmen?" Savannah asked her friend with mixed emotions. She was still confused about it all, but eventually she would have to get over it. "I think it's freaking sweet! I mean we're finally away from those brats back in middle school, and we're being treated like the adults that we are! Yep! Life's good right now! VERY GOOD!" Paula Katherine was so happy to finally be in high school. She had a cup of French Vanilla coffee in her hand and a cereal bar in the other. "Girl! Is THAT your breakfast? I mean that bar's not much to eat on and that coffee's not going to last very long. You should go eat and go get another cup. Just saying." Savannah didn't quite understand why her friend was having such a small breakfast. Usually Paula Katherine pigs out with scrambled eggs and french toast. "Well I don't see you munching on anything miss 'Get Yourself Something To Eat' so why are you barking at me?" Paula Katherine was teasing Savannah. "Well if you MUST know, I'm not hungry! AND I don't eat of the mornings! SO THERE!" Savannah stuck her tongue out at Paula Katherine and crossed her eyes. "I'm going to freaking laugh when your face sticks like that! And I'm going to take pictures just to humiliate your ass!" Paula Katherine said in a serious tone with a not so serious expression on her face. Savannah's only response was giving her friend the middle finger. Paula Katherine's face went from having a goofy look to a very shocked look. She made eye contact with Savannah, and they started laughing. They sat down and looked at each others schedules, and found out that they have a handful of classes together. There was Pre-Algebra, Biology, English 9, Woman's Choir, Gym, and Basic Skills. They talked about how they would help each other pass their classes, and the subject jumped to how their summer was. Savannah had went fishing with her uncle Timmy and Paula Katherine stayed at home with her parents and her brother Derek.
The bell rang and they headed to Woman's Choir together. They kept talking about their summer all the way to the hall that leads them to both the choir room and the band room. They entered the choir room with smiles. All of their friends and haters was in their class. They sat down on the top bleacher in the right hand corner of the large room. The green pull curtains still dangled from the ceiling on their side and behind them the full length green pull curtains hung all the way across the wall hiding the mirrors. The second bell rang and their choir instructor Mr. Childress entered the room with his usual spiky blonde hair and big smile. "Good morning ladies! Welcome to Woman's Choir! Most of you are upper classmen, and most of you are Freshmen. So let's go around the room and introduce ourselves." Since nobody volunteered to introduce themselves, Mr. Childress made eye contact with Savannah. "SAVANNAH! Please stand and introduce your pretty little self!" Mr. Childress gave her a wink and a smile. Savannah stood up and smiled back at her teacher. "What's up? The name's Savannah Leann Collins. I'm turning 15 in October. I love to watch tv, play video games, talk on the phone, sing of course, and hang out with my friend Paula Katherine. Nuff said." She sits down beside her friend taking a sip of the French Vanilla coffee. She sat the cup back down beside Paula Katherine, and Mr. Childress looks directly at Paula Katherine. "Paula, will you stand up and tell us about yourself?" The same wink and smile Savannah received was delivered to Paula Katherine. She stands up and flips her long blonde curly hair. "Hey what's up? The name be Paula Katherine Deaton. Just call me Paula Katherine. If you call me Paula you will die. I like to sing, talk on the phone, watch tv, and hang out with Savannah. I pick on my brothers BJ and Derek because they're annoying and I hate them. Nuff said." She sat down in the chair beside Savannah and took a sip of her coffee that has turned cold and undrinkable. She puts it behind her chair and talked to Savannah. "I've got an idea. Lets pull the first prank of the year on my brother! We'll get him so good!" Paula Katherine said with an evil gleam in her eyes. She hates Derek because he had always picked on her, got her in so much trouble, and tag teamed against her with their older brother BJ. "I don't know. I mean why can't we just do that on someone who we BOTH can't stand? It makes sense after all." Savannah knew who Derek was, but she hasn't seen him since they were little kids. She knew how mean he could be, but he could've changed since then. Paula Katherine was dead set on getting Derek this year so Savannah caved in and helped her make up a plan. "I say we blow his locker up!", Paula Katherine exclaimed with an evil grin on her face. "Nah. Lets just super glue it shut.", Savannah suggested. "OH! I getcha! So when he finally gets it open, we can shove him in it and LEAVE HIM IN THERE! AHAHAHAHA! Girl! You're freaking brilliant!" Paula Katherine was ecstatic about that detail. "Uh girl, that was your idea. Leave me out of that." Savannah had a serious face and tone to go with it towards her friend. The girls kept talking about the plan until the bell rang. "We'll have to continue this later at lunch." Paula Katherine states without any emotion. "Will do." Savannah and Paula Katherine went their separate ways. Savannah's next class was Pre-Algebra. "Oh goodie! Here comes the headache." Savannah walks into the room, and took her seat. She was ready to have the first shitty day of the year.
