Chapter 1:
'Thoughts'
"Speech"
Everyone seems to think high school is the most wonderful time of people's lives. Jack Spicer disagrees. He loathed high school. He wished he could completely skip it and go straight to college; he was a genius after all! He hated his classes, he hated his teachers, and most importantly, he hated his fellow classmates. . . Well, that wasn't completely true. He had a handful of friends, for which he was grateful for. There was Clay, the transfer student from Texas, (A/N: Story takes place in Chicago :]) , Kimiko, the Japanese fashion expert, Omi, a pacifist good guy, and last but not least, Raimundo, the hot, Brazilian Sports star.
'Wait! Did I Just call Raimundo hot?'
Jack mentally slapped himself at that thought as he drove to school. Today was like every other day: he got up, got dressed, and ate breakfast; by himself of course, because that was how it was every day, and no one knew. They didn't know how his parents died when he was ten, or that he'd been living by himself for the past seven years, or that he has been longing for someone to just be around.
'Well, I'll cry about that later…' Jack thought
His parents were insanely wealthy, so at least tyhe didn't have to have the stress of financials on his brain: He had enough money to last himself three lifetimes, but that didn't matter; without someone to share it with, what was the use? Little did he know, that he was already in the school's parking lot, staring out the windshield. He jumped when he heard a tap on the glass, only to see Raimundo and Clay smiling.
"Mornin' Jack!" Rainmundo said, walking besides his best friend Clay
"Howdy, partner!" Clay shouted.
"Hey guys, where's Kimi and Omi?" Jack responded
"Making out, as usual!" Raimundo said, rolling his eyes and poking his tongue out
Jack, Raimundo, and Clay all began to shiver simultaneously. Then they started laughing.
"Dude, we have to have a party this Saturday! It has to be EPIC!" Raimundo screamed with excitement and anticipation.
"Where are we gonna have it?" Jack asked.
"What about your barn, partner?" Clay chimed in to Jack
"Who, Me?" Jack asked puzzled. He had never had any of his friends at his house. He didn't even tell them that he was filthy rich, with a huge mansion, who which he lived alone in for years. Sure he could have had a ton of parties given his freedom of parental overlook, but he didn't want his friends to treat him differently because of it. Maybe he had to take a chance…
"You c-could…" Jack stuttered
"What was that, Jack?" Rai asked.
"We could throw it at my place." Jack managed to choke out.
"What?" Clay and Raimundo said together, not knowing if they heard correctly.
"I said you guys can throw the party at my place. My parents are, um, out of town on business, so my house is free." Jack said.
Clay and Raimundo turned to each other and did their signature handshake, with wide grins on their faces. Maybe this wouldn't be a bad idea, maybe I'm just paranoid.
The rest of the day went by smoothly; no bullies or name calling; that stopped a while ago, when jack started to hang out with Rai and his friends. They were once strong enemies, always feuding and trying to kill each other. One day, Jack couldn't take it anymore, as one of his now friends had taken an argument too far.
Cliffhanger!
