I walked up the three cement steps to get in to WRHS this morning, same as every morning. The first thing I saw when I walked in was Chelsea on top of her boyfriend John. Sometimes I feel like they are actually glued together. I cant think of one instance when they weren't together. Then I walked to my locker, where my friend Amanda jumped on me.
"Good Morning Jessica!", she said. She seemed to like mornings way to much.
"Hey Amanda", I say, less enthusiastic. Are conversation goes on a little longer. She compliments my hair, and I ask how her boyfriend Josh is. They she ends the conversation with "Bye girl" or "Later Hun"
Then I walk to Becca's locker she is kissing her Johnny. He was three years he senior, but it didn't matter to her.
"Hey Jess", she says.
"Hey Bec-", I was cut off my the loud speaker sputtering, "Johnny Depp to the main office, Johnny Depp, main office".
Becca gives Johhny a overly long goodbye kiss, so, I just walk away. I walk up to the second floor to find my best friend Gwen playfully punching her boyfriend Nick, but nobody calls him Nick alone because there are so many Nicks in our grade. We call him Nick J, or little Jonas.
'Hey Jess, What's up", Gwen asked.
"Eh, nothing I'm going to go to the library, see you in History?", I ask.
"Sure, Bye", she says.
Then its History class. The first thing I see when I walk in the door is Mr. Tomlin's mug. 'Joy', I think. 'Another class". but then I see him, Christian. I have been wanting him since 7th grade, when he was in my English class. He sits right in front of me. Between Danya and Claire. There are only three boys in our fifteen person Honors World History Class. They were Tom Crossley, Christian, and Ryan Gosling. Ryan was pretty popular, he had great grades and a nice girlfriend named Rachel. Rachel was part of the McAdams legacy. All the McAdams got into NYU. We were the survivors of Tomlin, better known as the Tomlinetes. This class started with about twenty-two kids, but Tomlin scared away almost half of the class.
After class wait for Gwen and Christian, and then we walk to lunch. Hm, choices, choices. Chicken that bounces, a pork chop…weird, sticky pizza, or a sandwich. I go for the sticky pizza, purely because it comes with French fries, Gwen gets two packs of double chocolate cookies, a water, and a grape Italian ice. Christian gets pizza too. We eat, talk about whatever, and then go to Advisory.
I go home three more days and freshman year was over, and I was going to a college, for a college experience trip at Boston College with Gwen, and Christian. We were going to have the greatest summer ever. I was sure of it. Christian's brother went to BC so we were going to ditch the program and week in and have his brother drive us to Wildwood New Jersey for a summer on the beach. His brother's girlfriend owns a beach house and said we can say with her. Gwen's boyfriend Nick was going on tour with his band of brothers over the summer, the shows were close the New Jersey, so he got to visit once a week.
When we first got there we looked at our schedules. Me and Gwen got roomed together like we'd hoped. We went to the classes for the first couple days, but on the fourth day Christian's brother picked us up and brought us the Wildwood. We spent the first day on the beach…..
