A/N: Hey guys! So I'm updating but I'm baby-sitting. Lol. So I am super distracted. This chapter would be Samantha going through all of the drama at school. You will meet more of Samantha's friends in this chapter. I'm basing Samantha's school off of my school. I have 8 classes a day including lunch. Its only 45 minutes each class. To clear up any confusion. And I have a PSA I need to discuss with you guys.
PREVIOUSLY ON 'HEALING'
The first bell rung and I grabbed my bag from London and I put my stuff in my locker. I rushed around to get to my first class, Chemistry Honors. I walked in the room and the whispers were starting up once again. I'm ready for all of the questions today.
I was SO grateful that the bell finally rung signaling first period was over. I grabbed my stuff and rushed out of the door. I heard my teacher, Ms. Moore, call me back into class. Ugh. I don't want to hear it.
"Samantha, I just want to say that I heard some rumors this morning and I am sorry for your loss. If you need to talk, I am here for you." She said sincerely. I shook my head and dismissed it. I do not want anybody's condolences. Because half of the time they do not follow through.
"Ms. Moore, I am fine. Thank you for your concern." I said politely and spun on the heel of my boats and walked out of the room. This is about to be a depressing day.
I walked down the hallway going to my next class. Algebra 2/Trig. I see a lot of familiar faces. This is an advantage but a disadvantage. It would be an advantage because I could get help a lot easier getting help from those people. This disadvantage is that we all know each other well and so more sympathetic looks from this class also.
I was relieved to see that Karen and London was in this period with me. Maybe second period would be bearable this year.
"Hey mini-me!" London said smiling at me. I had to smile back. She is like my sister. She would always try and make me feel better on my worse days.
"Hey big me. Hey Karen." I said greeting the two.
"Hey Sam." Karen smiled at me
The teacher walked into the classroom and started taking the attendance. The whole class was just about class procedures. Blah blah blah. After he finished talking, Karen, London and I decided to start making some friends in the class. We would all need them later on in the year. We walked around the class introducing ourselves. Then, the bell signaling this period has ended. Not as many sympathetic looks in this period.
I walked to my next period which is Government Honors. This class would be so easy. I am a science and history whiz. I love those two subjects. My government teacher is the same teacher I had last year for U.S. History. I love that because she was the coolest teacher last year.
"Hi Ms. Sharp! It looks like I am going to be in here another year." I said smiling at her. She turned around and smiled. She always did like me.
"Hi Sam. Another year it is. Sit where you want." She said gesturing to the seats.
I felt a pair of arms behind me and I knew it was Marcus. "Ciao bella."
I had to smile at him. "Hola guapo." I felt him kiss the top of my head and he sat beside me on the next row. We normally always sit together. He knows I'm strong in history and he is strong in math. Sad that we don't have math together this year. Class was very easy on both of us.
The rest of the class came in and Brianna is in my class. She is strong in History also. This will DEFINITELY be an easy year in this class.
Ms. Sharp was going over the rules. Half of us in this class have been in here before and we all knew the rules. Brianna, Marcus and I were all passing notes to each other. We needed something to do. We decided that sometime after school this week, we would all go to Starbucks and go shopping. We needed to catch up with each other. Karen, Brianna, and London could bring their boyfriends so Marcus wouldn't be alone.
Before we knew it, it was time to go to Drama. My coolest period ever! All we really do is talk about our lives and problems. The easiest class to pass. I then remembered that my new friend, Maddy, is going to be in this class. I walked in there with Marcus because he has Drama also this period. The drama teacher wasn't even in there. Oh well. We are only really going to talk about life.
To me, this felt like the quickest period today so far. I met some new cool people in this class. I grabbed my stuff and grabbed Marcus's hand and walked to the cafeteria. I saw another friend of mine. Her name is Destiny. She waved us over and we sat with her and her boyfriend Eric. "Hey guys! Long time no see!" I said to them giving them a friendly hug. They were crazy together last year.
"Right back at ya!" Eric said to me. I rolled my eyes and I took out my lunch. We all started talking and we saw this freshmen sitting by himself. Awww. His first day of school and sitting by himself. It totally sucks being at a big new school and not know anybody.
I was beginning to stand up. "Freshie at 12 o'clock. He looks too lonely." I said nodding my head towards his direction. The trio looked at the lonely boy and he was eating a sandwich. I walked over to his table and sat next to him. "Hi, I'm Samantha. What's your name?" I introduced myself. He looked shocked somebody was actually talking to him.
"Hi. I-I'm Max. I'm a freshman." He said nervously. Aw. He is so adorable.
"I could tell. You look kind of lonely. How would you like sitting with my friends today? You can stay if you want to. We won't mind at all." I offered him. He nodded eagerly. I guess he doesn't want to be lonely his first day of school and I get that.
I led him over to my table and he sat next to Marcus and another freshman who came to our table. She looked lonely as well. "Hey everybody, this is Max. Max, this is my boyfriend Marcus, my friend Destiny, and her boyfriend Eric. And who is this lovely freshies?" I asked directing myself to the unknown person at the table.
She lifted her head. "Hi, I'm Lindsay. And you are Samantha, right?" I nodded my head. She was so adorable. But yet, all of the freshmen I met so far are adorable.
The bell rung and I was off to English class. This class would be boring. I have all not fun people in this class. Ugh. The teacher was just talking and I just decided to go to sleep. The teacher was boring and talking about nothing important.
The bell woke me up out of my slumber and I enjoyed that sleep. My sleeping period for sure.
The next period was Technology. This would be another sleeping period as well. We didn't even have a teacher in that class either. I was talking to Maddy and Marcus for a little bit and then Marcus and I decided to leave because it was absolutely POINTLESS in that class today. So we walked to our favorite teacher, our art teacher. She didn't care who comes into her classroom. And she is very chill.
"Hi Ms. Robinson!" We said as a union. She looked up at us.
"And here comes Washington High's favorite couple." She joked. We were voted favorite couple last year and of course we are going to run this year as well. We are friendly and absolutely crazy together. We just get each other.
We rolled our eyes and started laughing. We started talking to the senior class who was in here as well. They were so funny and cracking jokes. We decided to go get something from the vending machine and help Ms. Robinson around the room.
The bell rung and it is time for our last period. Finally! I walked into my last period of the day, Psychology. I always thought that the class would be interesting. At the end of the day, I was definitely right. That is one awesome class.
The bell rung sooner than I thought it would have. The first day of school wasn't so bad. People were still whispering when I walked past them. If they were to walk in my shoes for a day, they would not survive what's so ever.
I walked to my locker and took all the stuff I needed to take home and put it in my bag. I heard Marcus's laugh from down the hall and I see that he is with the Varsity football team. The whole Varsity football team knows me because I am Marcus's girl. If I need somebody to back me up, I have the whole football team and some other people to be there for me.
"AYE! IT'S MY LITTLE SISTER! HEY SAM!" I heard one of them yell. I think it was one of the players, Stephen. I knew him since about 7th grade and he was in the 8th grade. He has had my back since then. We have always gotten along. He is like my annoying big brother. Always overprotective of me and always ready to beat Marcus down if he "dared" hurt me.
"HEY BIG BRO!" I said back to him. I gave him a hug and he spinned me around. I guess I am that light to everybody. And he is really tall. At least 6'2.
Marcus took my bag and I took his hand. I had the whole football team behind me who were like my brothers and my boyfriend by my side. This has been a decent first day of school.
We were all talking and laughing catching up with each other. Then, I smelled gasoline and it smelled like it was coming from the school. I started running and I pulled Marcus with me. I always told Marcus if I start running, follow me. The football team looked confused but they decided to follow me. Smart choice.
"GET BEHIND THE CAR! COVER YOUR HEAD!" I yelled at them and they did as I said.
Suddenly, we felt the ground shake and heard so many noises. Before I knew it, Marcus and Stephen are telling me to hang in there. Police is on the way. I tried to stay, I really did. But my world just went pitch black…
A/N: Hehehehehehe! Boom! Cliffhanger in the 2nd chapter. I suck don't I? Oh well. I will more than likely update tomorrow and maybe Friday. Not Saturday though. I'm going out. Lol.
How was this week's NCIS to you guys? I liked it. Ziva was looking GOOD in that dress! :D And that little Tiva moment. Lol. And DID YOU GUYS SEE NCIS: LA? Wasn't it SO cute! I love Densi even more! :)
Ok, just want to say, I am FLATTERED that I had a lot of story alerts, favorite author alerts, etc. But what's the point of putting alerts on it and NOT review? Please, please, PLEASE review! I felt so… unmotivated. And lately, that has been VERY easy to do with me. :/ Read and review. Or Ziva will kill you. :P
Baby names?
Thanks for reviewing SmellyThePirate and conservativegirl.
