Chapter Two- New Girl


Gabe's POV

I drove to school that morning just thinking that it was an ordinary day at boring 11th grade again but just as I pulled my truck into an open student parking spot I saw…Mrs. Dabney's car? Wait no it's not it must have just been the same model because driving was a beautiful girl who looked about my age with vivid red velvet colored hair that was in perfect ringlets. I was sure that it was Mrs. Dabney's vehicle, but interrupting my thoughts I got tapped on the shoulder and turned around to see the beautiful red-heads big plum colored eyes staring right into my brown eyes behind her burgundy thick rimmed glasses.

"Hi, I'm Luci Noelle! I'm new here, would you mind helping me find my way to my first class?"

"S-s-s-sure" I muttered barely able to speak, "I-I-I-I'm Gabe Duncan by the way, what class do you have first?"

"English in classroom 208 and I have no idea how to get there!" Luci said with a small giggle at the end.

" What a coincidence I have the same class just let me go to my locker and get my books first, do you know where your locker is?" I said seeing she had a big stack of books and binders in her arms.

"No clue at all it's in my phone just a sec," she said pulling out her Iphone 4S to check her locker number and combination,

"Locker number 439, combination 06, 14, 32," she said out loud and I couldn't tell if she was talking to me or herself.

"My lockers 436, just a couple down so do you want to walk together."

"Sure, I'd probably get lost quite a few times if I walked by myself" as we laughed together.

We walked down the hallways as we both got our books and headed into the classroom. Jake automatically walked up and started talking to me not noticing Luci, but when he did he got a confused look on his face.

"Hi, are you new here? What's your name? My name is Jake. Where did you move from? Have you ever been to Canada, or England, or Australia?" Jake flooded her with questions but she suprisingly answered.

"Hi, yes I am new here. My name is Lucillia , Lucillia Noelle but call me Luci for short. I moved here from Saskatchewan, so there for I have not only been to Canada I have lived there, but no I have not been to England or Australia. Have you?" she replied just as equally fast as both jake and my eyes got huge because nobody has ever talked as fast as Jake and Luci could have been faster, "What?" she asked seeing our shocked faces.

We all rushed to our seats after that because our teacher, Mrs. Melish walked in except for luci who didn't have a seat so she just stayed were she was and Mrs. Melish noticed her right away and asked her to come up to the front of the class then there was a knock on the door and the gym teacher walked in bringing a desk and setting it at the front of the room beside mine (I have to sit at the front because of the amount of trouble I get in. Luci stayed at the front of the class for Mrs. Melish to introduce her.

" Thank you Joe," Mrs. Melish yelled after the gym teacher who just left the classroom, "everyone I would like you to meet our newest student, Lucillia Noelle'

" Hi everyone but you can just call me Luci Mrs. Melish" Luci replied really happily and innocent.

" That's nice but we'll all stick with Lucillia in this classroom," Mrs. Melish said strictly making Luci's smile dissapear, "Now sit down so we can begin the lesson unless if you want o make everyone do a two page essay for homwork."

After that Luci practically ran to her desk. Mrs. Melish started writing notes on the white board and the whole class started to write the 3 pages we had to write that day about our next writing assignment which consisted of five pages about our heroes plus three poems we all had to get done by tommorrow. By the time we were all done we had half an hour to work on it. I got the first two poems done by the time the bell rang but it looked like Luci had he whole essay done and was halfway done her first poem. We all walked out of the classrom to go to the next class and all the classes that day kind of went the same way.

After school I walked to my truck and saw Luci headed on the same road I take to get to my street, then later down the same street as mine. She started pulling in almost exactly beside my house but pulled into Mrs. Dabney's driveway but I didn't think much of it because maybe she wqas just helping her with something such as getting her groceries for her. Then as I thought of groceries I remembered I had to pick up spaghetti, tomato sauce, and meatballs for supper tonight so I drove out of the driveway.
