NEW GIRL CH. 1

It was a day I would never forget. Professor Rotwood was trying to get us to quite down so that we could give each other valentine gifts and as usual nobody was paying any attention to him and we were all talking. Then slowly the door opened and in came a Chinese-American girl. I was dumbstruck. She was amazing. For one thing, she was Chinese like me and she was beautiful. So she walked up to professor Rotwood's desk and said, in a soft voice, "is this room B6?'

"Yes," said Professor Rotwood, "This is mythology class and were handing out valentines right now you may take a seat next to Violet over there." He said pointing in the right direction then he shouted "Violet raise your hand."

Soon the day began and everyone was passing out valentines and have you ever thought how it is so lame that you have to pass out a valentine to everybody even the people you hate. It's a good thing I'm not one of those people who have to have everything exactly the right amount so I had made a few extras just in case. So luckily, I had one for the new girl. When I handed it to her, she looked up at me and gave me the most brilliant smile I have ever seen. Her eyes were a warm brown color that immediately made me feel like this was someone I could trust.

RING! Finally another boring day over I could finally go skateboarding with Trixie and Spud. It was Tuesday and thankfully, my grandpa is nice enough to give me some days off training. I was walking out of school when the new girl from professor Rotwood's class came up to me.

"Hi, I'm Wanita thanks for giving me a valentine today. It was the only one I got."

"No problem I always make some extras. Hey do you know how to skate board?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Well me and my friends are going skateboarding and if you want to you could come with us."

"I would love to, but I'm not free until five, maybe some other time."

"Oh, sure," I said disappointed.

I was kinda disappointed she couldn't go but then I saw Rose comin toward me and all of my thoughts about Wanita evaporated.

"Hey."

"Hey Rose."

"Who were you just talkin too?"Rose asked kind of worriedly.

"Just a new girl. I gave a valentine to her today and it was the only one she got so she wanted to thank me. Why?"

"Oh it's just because-"

"Hey, Jake you comin or what?"

Trust Trixie to interrupt now.

"Yeah I'm comin just wait a sec."

"Sorry Rose I got to go I'll call you later tonight ok. Bye."

I felt kinda bad leaving her like that, but I figured I'd apologize when I called her tonight, but right now I had some skateboarding to do.

"Hi is Rose there?"

"Yes, can I ask whose calling," said a deep voice.

"Yeah tell her it's Jake."

"Hello?" said Rose

"Hey about today well I'm really sorry I left so fast and all."

"That's okay what unnerved me was you talking to Wanita," She said, saying Wanita's name like it tasted bad.

"Wanita? Why?"

"I saw how you were looking at her you really like her, I just hope you like me better."

"Oh come on Rose, you know I like you better than any one else in the world."

"Well I'm glad you do because I was having some serious doubts"

"Hey uh Rose I got to go but I'll see you tomorrow okay?"

"Okay."

Well I think that went well. I eventually fell asleep and while I usually dreamt about Rose now there was a new person in my dreams, Wanita.
