the Cool the

lame and the misunderstood

Sitting in class listening to the teacher blab on about "sexual predators" . We have sex education every wednesday at 11:00 , to learn abot celibacy or something . Which was funny because of everyone who needed to take a celibacy oath the 11th graders were definitely last on the list. If anything the eleventh graders should be the ones sitting here waisting there time. Including Sidney Crawford the high school slut . She flirts with EVERY guy in the whole high school department , and i certainly didm't imagine her making out with the jocks behind the bleachers during the soccer matches . Not that i watched or anything I was always too busy staring at one certain player , a certain brown haired green eyed cutie :Gabrielle Zerrain . I knew it would never happen , I mean first of all he was a 12th grader and he was way out of my league . He was captain of the soccer team an all star striker , all the college leagues in the country will want him on their team not to mention other countries . I even forget that fact that there is probably no one more perfect for each other than me and Gabrielle except the fact that i'm a redhead and he's a brunette we have everything in common . We both have green eyes and curly hair , we go to the same dance classes just to mention a few : tango ,tap ,salsa , ballet . Did I mention he can play the electric guitar like Jimmy Hendrix ? and that he loves David BOWIE ! He is like the male double of me . I was dreaming about Gabrielle for such a long time I must have missed our sex ed teacher ask me a question . "Um could you answer my question please ?" uh oh " could you repeat the question ?" What if I couldn't answer , shoot " could you please tell me the use of celibacy?" this made me laugh ,the fact that they drilled celibacy instead of teaching us how to use birth control. is there something funny about " Uh oh I was in trouble "No I was just " This didn't please one bit " you may go to the back of the class ." That is how I ended up doomed next to the stench of the trash cans . After class was lunch , thank god ! My only other favorite class after dance and music . I grabbed my lunch from under my seat and headed to where Steph was sitting " Hey " Steph said looking up from her sketch " sorry I got a little preoccupied and forgot to meet you after sex ed " Since Steph was head of the drama club she occasionally got to miss a couple classes , because you know she had to supervise the 6th graders painting the set . Steph unlike past drama presidents was a 11th grader , she was the first ever sophomore to win the title as head , and she never let anyone forget . No one was disappointed though , not even mean old the director , because in the past 2 years of her reign every one of her pupils interested in drama have graduated and have either 1. gone to Juilliard for college or 2. gone to NYCDI and Mr Stinch intends to keep it that way .So Stephanie has a secured place as head till she too graduates . " It's okay , you got to man drama club keep those scholarships coming I get it ." I said cheerfully " Hey All ,you've been weird all day today ! what's wrong." I made a face at her " Oh! shit I forgot it's the 3rd !"The 3rd is the day my dad comes down to visit not the fake "I want us to be friends" one NO the no crap" I made you happen one " I sighed " I don't get why you hate his visits so much " Stephanie didn't understand , her parents were easily the happiest couple ever made . But my biological parents not so much , I was pretty much a glitch in both of my parents teenage lives , they were a couple when they were in high school apparently they both fell pretty hard for one another . Which isn't so surprising , because every time my dad comes to town they fall in love with each other again . "I mean yeah maybe their on again off again relationship is annoying but … I mean wouldn't you want them together again " I didn't even notice Stephanie was still talking . " Steph my mom and dad just like to get together when he comes to visit me and have sex with my mom ." Stephanie obviously didn't understand my pain , because her next statement was "speaking of sex , wait come here " I grabbed my fork and she pulled me up to "The attic "where we ate lunch every day it was basically just a staircase leading to nowhere that we had sort of claimed , there we met Natalie and Shannon . I walked over to the microwave and popped my lunch in , vegetarian lasagna my favorite . "you were saying " I said " well , rumor has it Sidney and Gabrielle did it in her parents car this summer " I slammed the microwave door closed " WHAT " I snapped Steph just kept nodding her head and saying "uh huh uh huh" . "that .THAT is the craziest thing ! Gabrielle is a …a.. That is just gossip . The whole thing was probably a scam , it's probably all just a lie made by that slut Sidney Crawford " I was stunned , maybe just the slightest bit jealous ." don't worry All , Gabrielle is a hottie , but they have nothing in common . Sidney likes reading cosmo and pursuing guys , I doubt Gabrielle would ever step foot in leather seated car anyway " Natalie said in her most comforting voice . " You're probably right I mean if there is ANYONE that is more made for Gabrielle than me than he should … " I paused for a second thinking of what to say"marry her ! " I stuck my fork into my lasagna suddenly aware that I was starving . Natalie though just sat staring at her lunch her mom had made for her while we were digging in " NAT! " I screamed " Not this again , I will make you eat you hear me ! as long as you live I will make sure you will never be wheeled off into one of those hospitals again " Natalie was anorexic had been since we first met in the 3rd grade , I had watched her gain confidence and begin eating again ,but the slightest comment would knock her down again and each time she fell for months on end until she ended up in the hospital , she had been in 9 different hospitals since I've known her most of which I spent in a hospital bed right next to her . " HELLO ! ALL you didn't watch me be wheeled in you were right in a chair being wheeled in too ! remember ? ? " I wanted to throw up , because I hated to be reminded of the fact that for as long as me and Nat have been friends we've both been anorexic . But last year I bounced back again and realized what hell being anorexic is , I LOVE having body fat ,and not having to buy new clothes depending on my size which was always dropping. I love not going to the doctor all the time , I love being tall ,and most of all I love my boobs even if they do attract some creeps . " Nat ! if you don't eat I'll feed you , it feels so good to be on this side of 'll have so much more fun !" I could see Nat fight with her self , so I stuffed a piece of my lasagna in her mouth , I could tell it had worked , because she let out a "mmm"
