Chapter 1
Strike POV
As I looked out the window, I was dreading what came next.
"Strike, your next." Mr. Scrapp said. Strike is my nickname because I was almost everywhere. I was invisible, or at least that's what I think. Everyone else said that I was popular, haha. I was seriously nervous… I stood up in front of my English class, 3rd period, and read my report.
"I chose a book called 'El Libro de Comer'," All the kids in my class laughed, or at least the kids that took Spanish. Mr. Scrapp didn't understand what was so funny because he always boasted that French was sooooooo much better. And yes I did choose a Spanish cooking book just to rub it in his face, and yes I'm glad I did. I just went on and on about the food and culture. Yet again, another 100. After class Jason walked with me to chorus, he's my boyyfriendddd. I'm just so glad that we have some classes together, this is his last year here at Adams High, he's a senior, but I'm still a sophomore. I was kinda in shock when he asked me out, so I think I sounded like an idiot. Anyways, no need to go into my long story, in chorus all the guys got yelled at so Ms Colesta told us we had to stay two minutes after the bell.
"Damn it," I said to my best friend, Edis, "I can't afford to be late to lunch!"
"Don't talk so loud, why? You have a date with an ultra-cute guy?" She asked.
"No!" I half-whispered, half-screamed. Oops.
"3 minutes." Said Ms Colesta.
"Damn you Strike."
"Sorry…hehe" I said really quietly.
"Nice, lets now pay attention." Said Edis. I kept on wondering what I would wear to graduation, Jason was going to be up on stage and he's graduating in a week and I'm just so excited! The bell rang just then and we had to stand on the risers for the next 3 minutes. Finally we were allowed to leave and Jason was there next to me and then we went to his locker first so he could drop all his stuff there before lunch. When we got there it looked like Jennifer was leaning up against his locker. She's another senior, but the most popular kid here at Adams. A couple years ago she and Jason went out, but then Jason dumped her because she wanted more than Jason wanted to give. She went right next to him and hugged him even though his arm was around me. Don't ask me how she managed it without hugging me too.
"Hey Jason, how are you doing? I'm having a party at my house this weekend, and I'm wondering if you want to come, you know the address, right?" Jennifer asked in her high whinny voice.
He looked at me and still looking at me said, "Sorry, I'm busy, I have plans then."
"You know what? That's ok, I just wanted you to meet Lucas, my new boyfriend." She said pouty like. Wow this girl was a drama queen. She left and then Jason opened his locker and it was almost empty, schools out in a couple days, and the only thing in his locker was a picture of me and him. I smiled when I saw that because it was on the night of Prom.
"Ok, you ready to go to lunch?" He asked.
"Whenever you are!" I replied. My name was then called over the PA system. I looked up to Jason wondering what was going on.
"I don't know," He answered the look on my face, "Want me to come with you?" He asked.
"Nah, it can't take too long, right?" I asked. I went to the office and guess who was there! Of course my Grama. Grama has been taking care of me ever since my parents divorced, my dad now lives in England, and my mom got a job in Mexico, so of course I wanted to stay here, so Grama took me in. She had a sad look in her eyes and I knew this time was coming. She's been getting older and sicker, and she was going to send me off somewhere, I thought I was going to mom or dad, but she had a couple papers in her hand. She motioned me to come over to her, so I did. She was deaf, and I had to learn to communicate with her, to make it easier, we usually knew what each other meant. She pointed to the papers, and in big bold letters it said ADOPTION. I looked at her and she had tears in her eyes. I nodded my head knowing it would be easier on her, she was going to a retirement home and she didn't want me to take over myself. I started a year younger so I'm only 15, so I need to go to a foster family for the next couple years to make Grama feel better, a little bit.
"Sure." I heard someone reply, I think it might've been me, Grama nodded and put the papers on the table as she left. I grabbed the papers and left. On my way to the cafeteria I went to my locker and put my bag on, I don't really think I'll be coming back anytime soon. When I got to the cafeteria, Jennifer was sitting right next to Jason, with Alex, Jason's best friend since daycare, on his other side. Jason was then putting a brownie in Jennifer's mouth, and I felt my own mouth gasp with shock and anger. Alex looked over and saw me, and then looked very sympathetic, he nudged Jason and then Jason looked over. I hope he saw the pain and sadness in my eyes, that back-stabbing, lying ass. I walked away with my head held high, until I got out the doors of the school. That's when I lost it, I ran from the school crying. I really believed that Jason would be there for me… I guess even true love has its limits…
"Strike! Wait up! Slow down! Please?" I heard Jason calling to me. I figured I could out run him, and then I looked over my shoulder. Oops, big mistake. Note for future, when being chased, never look behind you. No matter how tempting. Ok, this is what I saw. Jason and Alex running as fast as they can and only about a yard away. Not my best choice ever… I was thrown to the ground by either Jason or Alex, or if you want proper names, tackled to the ground. By two very athletic guys. Who play multiple sports. Remind me never to try and outrun the school's most athletic guys. Ever.
"All the kids at the table dared me to do feed her, her food." He said while helping me up and hugging me.
