Thanks for the reviews! This is in Fangs point of view.
I turn up the radio as I drive to school. All Time Low is blasting through my car. " Manage me, I'm a mess. Turn the page, I'm a book half unread. I wanna be laughed at, laughed with, just because. I wanna feel weightless, and that should be enough." I sang along to the first verse as I pulled into a parking spot right next to Dylan's truck.
"Hey," Dylan says to me. I nod in response. "So, what was with you and Brianna at the party on Saturday?" He asks Gazzy.
"Oh nothing, ya know." Gazzy shrugs as Dylan, Jake, Elliot, Ari, and I laugh. We saw him making out with Brianna, who was this Sophmore that Gazzy had a thing for.
Just as Dylan was about to say something, a purple Range Rover pulled up right next to us. We're all checking out the ride, when a girl comes out.
"Woah, nice ride. I've never seen you here before, ya new?" Dylan asks her.
"Uh, yeah. My name's Max." Max says to Dylan while locking her car.
"Cool, my name's Dylan. You a junior?" Dylan asks Max, she shakes her head yes. "Kay, me too. Want me to show you around?" He questioned Max. She looks around behind Dylan as though she finally notices us. Her eyes fall on me, and I turn away, which is so unlike me. I would usually stare back into her eyes till' she stops looking, but there was just something about her that, I guess, made me nervous.
I'm in my little world as they walk away. Then I see Dylan looking back and mouthing the words "she is hot". I wanted to punch him for saying that. I don't know why, but I just did. She was hot. But she was also more than that, she was beautiful. She had light brown hair, with blonde mixed in. Then her eyes looked like melting chocolate, and she had the body of an athlete. She didn't look like any of the other girls in this school. She was fit, and didn't dress slutty. She hid behind blue jeans, and a faded black tee that said 'Bite Me' in red letters.
After Dylan and Max left, the guys and I talked for a little bit, then just went out own separate ways. I go to the quad, and just sit there relaxing. Suddenly I hear the final bell. I didn't even hear the warning bell. Shit. Whatever, no big deal, just another lunch detention.
I'm on my way to History when I see that girl, Max, in the hallway, looking lost. I come up behind her and ask if she needs help.
She looks startled as she turns back. She's even more beautiful up close. I see her long eyelashes framing her chocolate brown eyes, that look brighter. Her pink lips are parted in a little O in surpise. "Shouldn't you be in class?" she asks me.
"Shouldn't you?"I respond.
"I'm new. I have an excuse. Can you show me where locker 1130 is?" She asks me. I say sure and walk off towards my locker.
I stand in front of the empty locker right next to mine that says '1130'. "Here we are." I say. She thanks me and puts her things in her locker.
"You don't have to wait for me you know." She says.
"I'm not. My locker is right here." I put some of my books in my locker, and lock it. Max's cheeks turn red and she turns away, as if she was emberassed.
"Oh. Okay," She turns back to me. "Can you show me where Ms. Walker's English class is? Room 114" I nod my head and walk to Ms. Walker's classroom.
I stop in front of Walker's room. "Here."
"Thanks! Sorry, if I made you even later. By the way, my name's Max."
"I know. Fang." She looks confused for a second, then understands that 'Fang' is my name. I turn and walk away towards the Senior classrooms.
"You're late Mr. Ride, again. What is this? The tenth time this month?" Mr. Jacobs asks me. Even though I know it's a rhetorical question, I answer.
"Nope, actually its only the ninth," I say as I walk past him and towards my desk, that's of course surrounded by girls.
Mr. Jacobs continues with his lesson on the Cold War. I tune out, and think about that girl Max, when something hits me in the head.
Dude, what are you doing? You're drooling and staring off into space. Having a fantasy about that chick, Max? The note is in Elliot's handwriting. I quickly check my desk for drool. There's a small drop. I wipe it off and wipe my mouth.
Nothing. And no. Dude, you're sick. I'm just bored out of my mind with whatever Jacobs is talking about. I lie, and chuck the note at Elliot. Before Elliot can answer, the bell rings and everyone springs out of their seats, and run out of the door.
Just to clear anything up; Dylan, Max, and Gazzy are Juniors. Fang, Elliot, Ari, and Jake are Seniors. Review, please!
