CHAPTER TWO….
I own nothing….
"Any subjects you like?" He kept trying to get her to talk.
"I like music." Ro said quietly.
From the restaurant they went too some grocery store down the road. Ro walked quietly beside him as he pushed the cart down the isles. Occasionally he would ask her what kind of cereal she liked, or fruits, or chips. Ro answered him softly.
When they got home she helped put the groceries up. The twilight sky showed clouds building up in the horizon. At seeing them Robin had mumbled some words too himself and shook his head. Once she was done putting groceries up she made her way upstairs.
Monday had come far too quickly for her. She had opened up to Robin a little. She had learned his name from her mother as a child. Robin had friends that came over to visit and mostly meet her. His eyes, were in fact not grey but a bright blue. His friend, Much, was a talkative shorter and slightly heavier sat man. He had dirty blond hair nothing compared to Robins curly golden locks.
They had eaten dinner with Much Sunday night, than Ro left to her room to get her cloths out.
Now she was walking up to the school. Students her age and older walked around talking to each other. Rowan stood lost looking at all the different faces. She knew the questions they would ask, Are you new here? Where did you use to live? And so on. Rowan looked down at her books , than out of nowhere she was falling on the ground. Some one had pushed her over, probably an accident.
Her binder and folders dropped to the ground in a pile. She turned to see who had carelessly ran into her. Knelt on the ground trying to pick up his own things was a fairly tall boy who looked her age. He had blonde hair baby blue eyes and babyish features.
"I'm so sorry." He babbled. His voice was still more childlike than teenage.
"Its fine." Rowan said picking her stuff up and standing up.
"I'm Lionel by the way." He stood up next to her. He was clearly a lot taller than her, and taller than all the other students their age.
"I'm Rowan." Ro said.
Lionel smiled and shook her hand, "There's the bell. Better get to class. What do you have first period?"
"I still need to get my schedule." Ro said.
"Well, I'll see you around." Lionel said than walked off, nearly toppling over another person. His head barely missed the doorway.
Ro walked to the office and got her schedule and a pass, as well as a map of the school and her books. First period… Mrs. Langston with English room 211.
She made her way too the class room. She handed the teacher the pass than looked to see who was in there. A girl with brown hair and hazel eyes smiled at her. She saw the boy who had knocked her over. He grinned at her and waved slightly. Ro smiled back.
"Sit were ever you like for right now Rowan." The teacher said. Lionel patted to the seat next to him and the girl who had smiled at her. She sat in between them.
"So we have the same class, may I see your schedule?" Lionel asked. Rowan handed the paper to him.
"We have the next four classes together then seventh." He said happily. "So it must be hard to come in during second semester. Where did you live before?"
"Lionel, do not pester her." The brown haired girl said.
"Etty, it's a simple question. Its not like I am going to go on and on asking questions."
As soon as he said that the students that were sitting around them, as well as Etty, turned there heads toward him and gave him a look that said he usually did.
"What?" He squeaked.
Rowan smiled at him he was silly. Lionel and Etty had walked with her to their next class. And after that to the rest of them, showing her were things were in the school. It was now lunch time and Rowan sat with her new friends at one of the round tables. Etty was the smart kind, Ro figured this out quickly. She was also the popular type, while Lionel was a bit more of a baby. He squeaked and freaked out at things easily. Though Rowan could tell that he really was not a coward, just pretended to be one for reasons unknown to her. A boy with black shaggy hair and coal black eyes sat down at the table.
He did not say a word. Just a glance in her direction.
"Hello." Rowan said.
He looked up than back down at his food. Rowan gave Lionel a questioning look.
"He never really says much. I still don't know his name." Lionel answered. Then asked Ro after a while, "May I have your kiwi."
Etty chuckled, and Rowan gave the fruit to him.
Rowan stood waiting in the rain, drenched in water, for Robin to show up. School had been out for an hour now and he still was not there. Had he forgotten she was at school?
Finally a car pulled up into the parking lot. Robin got out of the car holding an umbrella over his head and ran over to her.
"I am so sorry." he said pushing the umbrella over her. "I got caught up in helping someone. You don't have to forgive me either."
Rowan looked down. She was not going to forgive him. She ran to the car forgetting Robin standing there still holding the old umbrella. Rowan yanked the door open and climbed in, then slammed it shut. She threw her bag on the car floor and put her knees to her chest. Robin opened the door and Ro paid no attention to him. She bit her bottom lip fighting tears. Mom never came so late to pick me up.
"Ro," Robin said quietly. Rowan looked out the window.
He put the keys in the ignition and started the car. Warm air blew out hitting her freezing body. Warming her a little. Her teeth were chattering , Ro clenched them to stop.
When they had arrived at the house, she threw her stuff by the door and ran up to her room. She knew Robin was fallowing her. She slammed the door shut quickly. Rowan heard foot falls outside in the hall, then she heard another door close.
After she changed into dry cloths, Ro flung herself on herself down on the bed clutching her pillow underneath her. She let out a soft sigh as a tear went down her cheek and fell on the blanket.
