"Hey, you're that new kid right?"
I didn't answer. He wasn't looking for answers. And when people aren't looking for answers, don't give them any.
"Dude..what is up with that look on your face?"
What look on my face? I didn't notice. I relaxed my expression.
"So, you freshman right? Why you so short?"
"Um..yes, I am. My name is Spencer Reid" I responded.
"Johnny Killam. And, yes to what? The freshman part or short part?"
"Both."
He snickered. I just wanted to wipe that stupid grin off his face. It was hard enough as it is.
"Man, are you actually okay with that? You're never going get any girls with that height."
"Actually, I haven't yet hit puberty. Most boys hit puberty between eleven and some as late as eighteen. I'm only twelve."
"Whoa. What are you doing 'round here then?"
"I skipped a few grades." I answered reluctantly.
" That's for sure." He said as he walked away. I was about to turn away aswell when he suddenly yelled, "Dude, comin' or not?"
He wanted me to go with him? I had the IQ of 140, but I was a kid. And, all I wanted was to be excepted. He was excepting me. It didn't matter what kind of a person he was.
