Chapter 2: Last Day of School
Time runs continuously, non-stop as the four immediately ate quickly before school starts. They can never underestimate time, time fools them; thinking time goes slow, but actually, it goes fast. Kevin took four cut pieces of his pancake, eating as quickly as he can, Ian practically fitting his scrambled eggs all in his mouth, Reece taking big bites of waffles, chewing as fast as he can. Alena, however, ate slowly and chewed her breakfast a little fast but took her time to swallow; knowing that eating fast can end you with a stomachache. She finished her breakfast as the three male teens were waiting for her; she took her last sip of her orange juice as the three boys stared at her.
"What? Can a girl eat like a girl?" she questioned the boys as she crossed her arms and gave an eyebrow at them.
"Well… I'm stuffed." Reece said, drumming his stomach slowly. "But we could've gone a little earlier though…"
Reece gave a stare at Kevin, as the teen looked down in shame; thinking how he failed his friends. "Sorry…" Kevin apologized, again.
"You still bummed about that, Kevin?" Reece asked the spiky-haired boy. Kevin faced his friend, making eye contact with him. He didn't want to answer but he had to. "Well, you keep making me feel bad that I made all of you guys eat late…"
"Listen Kevin, I'm sorry… I didn't mean to make you feel bad", Reece said, feeling guilty that Kevin was the whole blame for the situation. "If someone who's going to apologize, it should be me, Kevin. Not you."
Kevin smiled; his heart was beginning to warm again. The guilt melted away from his heart; thinking that his best friend is such a good friend, especially his other two old friends, Ian and Alena. "Thank you, Reece." Reece wanted to give Kevin a knuckle touch as two fists touched and the two friends smiled. "No problem, Kev'!"
"Oh no, we got five minutes until school starts!" Ian exclaimed, staring at his cell phone, completely shocked.
"Well, we better hurry!" Alena said, as she headed to the front entrance door and opened it for their friends to head out first.
The four friends left the diner quickly as they can before the school bell rings. The four dashed to their school as they knew they weren't going to make it. Reece took the lead as the other three followed. Ian glanced at his cell phone one more time as his eyes widen in fear as they had three minutes left! He pointed his phone at Reece which he growled and cursed how fast time went. He immediately stopped and pointed to this thin alley way which heads straight to the school.
"C'mon! This way!" Reece commanded his friends as they quickly entered the thin alley way. Kevin and the others dashed as quickly as possible. Even the last of day of school, students shouldn't be late to class or something terrible happens to them. Kevin didn't want to think about it, he tried to optimistic that everyone will be on time at school until-the school bell RINGS!
"Oh no!" Alena cried out as they were close to end of the alley way. The four continued to sprint to school, Kevin in the other hand was getting exhausted and wanted to rest for a little but he didn't want to fail his friends, again…
As he continued to sprint, Kevin and his three friends past some sections of hallways from the alley. However, as Kevin ran with his friends, ablack shadowy cloak figurecaught the corner of his crystal blue eye. He stopped for a quick second and jogged back to the small hallway which there was nothing. Kevin was confused at first, knowing he saw someone or something.
"Hurry up, Kevin!" Ian shouted back to Kevin as he turned to his friends which were concerned of him. Kevin quickly sprinted to his friends as they continued to head to school. "That was weird?" Kevin said, beginning to breathe deeply, and yet, completely confused about the incident.
"What's weird what?" Reece questioned, confused. "Didn't you see it?" Kevin asked; a bit astonished. Reece gave Kevin a quick eyebrow as Kevin had a serious look. "See what?" Reece questioned once more. Kevin panted, sucking in air and back out; he was out of air and was a couple of seconds close to school. "Didn't you see that person or black thing when we past this abandon hallway?" Kevin asked as entered to the school entrance and headed to his classroom. "No I didn't Kevin", Reece answered, gasping for air as they hastily entered the classroom. "Are you sure it was all on your head?"
"No, it wasn't all on my head. It was real…" Kevin muttered, looking down. "It stared at me…"
"Hmm… that's weird?" Reece began to think, his hand on his chin as tried to remember if there was anything at that empty hallway. Nothing came into his mind, shaking his head. "Nope, I didn't see anything there."
Soon, they entered the classroom; interrupting their teacher. The four were panting, exhausted from running, their legs feeling like jelly. Their teacher had an enraged stare at the teens. Kevin gave a nervous smile as the others looked down.
"Why you four late?" he asked, tapping his foot on the floor; waiting for an answer. "You're two minutes late!"
"Mr. Lewis, we…" Kevin couldn't make an answer; looking shameful at his teacher. Every other student were interested what terrible punishment will he give to his students. His teacher couldn't keep a grudge, his frown turned to a grin as he chuckled. "Don't worry; it's the last day of school! Why should I give you a punishment assignment? Please, sit on your assigned desk", Mr. Lewis smiled, as the teens were relieved and sat on their desks. "So, class today is the last day of school. You old 8th graders will become young freshman and will work your hardest during high school. I expect all of you to have an outstanding achievement and have great four years in your life! Today, since it's the time to relax and begin your applications for high school! Some of you will have to separate and go off to a different high school and some the same!"
"I know us four will be at Melwid High!" Reece chuckled, giving a small nudge at Kevin with his elbow.
"It might be heart breaking for some of you… One of you might go to Melwid High; others might go to the famous 'Sunset High School'," Mr. Lewis said, as the students heard 'Sunset High School', they give a blah of disgust.
"Who goes to Sunset High School!" one of the students questioned in disgust. "My cousin used to go, but she said it's full of nerdy delinquents", a student said, insulting the school.
"Now, now, class. I know you heard horrible rumors of that school. But in my honesty, I enrolled in that high school and it was wonderful. The school is very, very beautiful; it seems so rich and wealthy that students enjoyed being outdoors. The students are well behaved and are intelligent that Sunset High became the number one school in Sunset City," Mr. Lewis explained, thinking the old days he enrolled to that school.
"Who cares about Sunset High! It's full of snobbish losers who got no life and no boys that are cute!" exclaimed a girl at the back of the classroom.
"That's enough, Cynthia!" Mr. Lewis exclaimed, as the student shrugs.
"So, guys! Are we all going to Melwid High!" Reece questioned excitedly, as his friends stared at him. "Of course!" Kevin simply answered. Ian smiled and nodded, "You know I'm going!". Reece stared at Alena as she looked at her hands, thinking of something that's bothering. "Alena, aren't you going to Melwid?" Reece asked. Alena's distraction vanished as she faced Reece and made a smile, "Oh s-sure…you know it...!"
"Alright! It's all four of US!" Reece exclaimed in excitement, high-fiving Ian. Kevin glanced at Alena for a moment, as she was playing with her hands, nervous-looking and depressed-looking; a mixture of together. Kevin began to make a sad frown, thinking that this is new to Alena. She was never depressed, she was optimistic and fun-loving and encouraging. But something's up in her mind; something's bother her. Kevin thought as he turned from her and listened to Reece's and Ian's conversation.
As hours past, the last day of school wasn't so bad. Kevin enjoyed the fun he had with his other classroom courses. They made the last day of school parties, old work returned from the entire year of school, goodbye gifts, yearbooks signed; it was enjoyable for Kevin.
Class was about to end in a few minutes as Kevin stared at the clock as he sighed. He knows that after class, school won't be over for forty minutes because of lunch time. Since school now ends at noon, classes are short and the fun is short for school but Kevin waited for school to be over and after when school is over, summer vacation starts!
It's an excitement for Kevin. He and his friends can enjoy their summer vacation together in certain places that they never went to! Or they can go to the beach for the hot summer and record their memories when they get older to remember.
The school bell rang, everyone immediately dashed from the classroom, happy that school is about to end. Kevin gathered his old assignments and followed his friends until his teacher stopped him. "Kevin, may I talk to you for a moment?" Mr. Lewis asked the teen. Kevin looked back at his friends as they were gone and Kevin slowly strolled to his teacher. "What's a matter, Mr. Lewis?" Kevin questioned, laying his assignments on a desk. "Do you remember that high school I was talking about?" his teacher asked, trying to gain Kevin's ability to remember it. "Yeah, Sunset High. What about it?" Kevin questioned, confused at first.
"Kevin, you are completely an outstanding student. I recommended if you attended Sunset High than Melwid", Kevin's teacher suggested. Kevin was a bit in shock to hear that from his teacher, he never knew his teacher would encourage him to a school that everyone despised. "Thanks, but no thanks…" Kevin answered. "I don't want to leave my friends behind… I wanna stay with them until graduation at Melwid"
"Kevin, it's not about your friends…I want to you to do well in school, and this is coming from your teacher." Mr. Lewis said, laying a hand on the teen's shoulder.
Kevin made a weak and answered, "Thanks, I'll think about it…" Until he's done answering, he collects his old assignments and exits his classroom with a mind thinking of choosing his future high school; Sunset High or Melwid?
Kevin and his friends sat under a tree, collecting shade from the hot sun as they ate their school lunch. Ian smiled at his food; eating a barbeque rib as the barbeque sauce stained all over his mouth and enjoying the taste. Kevin and the others gave a disgusted look at Ian. The way he ate the rib was giving Kevin an oozing feeling in his stomach. Alena turned away from Ian and continued to eat her food; minding her own business. The four friends ate their meal as a soccer ball rolled towards the four friends. A male charges for the soccer ball as Kevin and Reece looks at the teen and smiled at him.
"Hey Reece, wanna play soccer? We need uh…" the teen stares at Ian as he was eating his barbeque rib in disgust. "Two more players…"
"Sure!" Reece accepted and turns to Kevin. "Wanna play?"
"Okay" Kevin simply replied, as he leaves his tray on the ground as they head into the field to play soccer.
Kevin was beside Reece, as one of the players kicked the ball of its teammates. Kevin charged for the player who had the ball, he slide on the ground; stealing the ball away from his opponent and runs to the goal. "All right, Kevin!" Reece cheered, jumping up and fisting his hand into the air as Kevin kicked the ball into the air and kicks it to the goal. The goalie tried to catch the ball but it was too fast to stop. Kevin smiled as everyone cheered him on and calling his name one by one. "Whoa! I never knew you were that good!" Reece was amazed by Kevin's performance.
Kevin chuckled as he scratches the back of his head, "It's my first time playing soccer, actually." Then one of Reece's friends walked towards the two and smiled at the spiky hair boy, "Well, you are very good!"
"Thanks!" Kevin took the compliment with a grin. "Don't mention it, now come on! We gotta' finish this game!" he replied as he was called from his teammates.
As time passes, the game was about to end and the two teams were in a tie. Kevin and Reece were exhausted from all that running, as Reece was the one who can't last forever. Kevin still had the energy to play and will try his best to win the game.
"They're so close!" Alena said, crossing her fingers; wishing them 'luck' to win the game. "Yeah!" Ian agreed, cheering on the defense team that his two friends were in.
At the field, Kevin and Reece were huddled in a group, strategizing to win the game. "Okay guys, Kevin you block, Tom. Reece and I try to take the ball and will pass the ball to you, and the rest will do the same. Got it?" said one of the players, strategizing the game. "You bet!" Kevin understood.
"Go Kevin and Reece! GO KEVIN AND REECE!" Ian and Alena cheered on to their friends, encouraging them.
Kevin and Reece smiled back at their friends. Kevin gave a thumb up as Reece wave a 'hi' to them as they cheered them. The opposite team passed the ball as Reece and the other players became defensive, kicking the ball away from them. Kevin was blocking Tom, the star player of the soccer team, he knew that Tom will be passed by the ball and might take the last goal but Kevin won't let his team down. Reece took the ball as he turned to his opposite side, heading to the goal. He turned back to notice a bunch of players surrounding him. He looked for a way to pass the ball to someone, looked slowly and carefully as he saw Kevin open. "Kevin!" he called him, kicking the ball towards him.
Kevin stopped the ball in time, he heads to the goalie. Before he kicks the ball to the goal, he charged his kick as the goalie was ready to block the ball. However, Kevin was deliberately pushed on purpose by Tom. Tom gave an evilly giggle as he heads to the opposite goal. Kevin didn't give up yet. He's a fast runner and is stubborn to win this game. He got up and dashed to Tom, he slide through his legs, stealing the ball away from him. But Tom wouldn't give up, yet. He kicked the ball from Kevin's legs but Kevin quickly caught the ball with his foot. Tom kicks the ball away from Kevin, holding the ball on his knees. Kevin suddenly, kicked the ball from the amateur high into the air heading to opponents' goal.
The goalie sat on the grass, bored of standing; sighs and plays with the grass as he heard a crash at the goal nets and notices the ball inside the goal. The opposing team was in complete shock, thinking how spectacular it was for the ball to land inside the goal.
"KEVIN! KEVIN! KEVIN! KEVIN!" the crowd cheered, screaming happily in victory.
Kevin adored the praise from everyone, he smiled and high fived his teammates. The crowd still cheers until it got silent, too silent… Kevin was confused as he opened his eyes and saw that everyone was frozen. It's like time was frozen, he saw people had the victory cheer on their faces. Kevin was completely confused and thought he was dreaming but then he heard an applause behind him. He turns to find a man with a black cloak.
"Nice, nice Kevin…" said the cloaked figure, ending his applause. "You really put a show here..."
Did I make a cliffhanger? Sorry for the suspense but I had to end here. But please comment and review. Constructive criticism is allowed as well. ^^ Hope you liked it!
