JESSI'S POV

I stood in front of the school. It was big. Bigger then any other I'd seen. It made me feel small and insignificant and with all the people who were walking in through its doors I felt scared and alone.

"You Ok?" I heard Soda say as Darry pulled away from the curb. I waved goodbye and then turned back to Soda.

"Yea" I replied "Just thinkin, ready to go?"

"Well you'll be doing a lot of that here, come on!" he said beginning to walk. Because he was taller than me his legs were longer. I ended up jogging to catch up with him. We reached the 2 push/pull doors that separated us from the learning environment and the freedom of the school.

Soda held back one of the doors for me and motioned me to come inside.

"Thanks" I said "Where do we go from here?"

"First of all we'll get you organized then we can go hang around and I'll introduce you to some buddies." Soda replied with a grin on his face. "The office is this way, follow me"

After what seemed like a mountain of paperwork I had my locker combination, a school ID code, new school books and Soda and I had our schedules.

"Do you have Mr. Fielder for Math?" Soda asked me as we walked down the packed halls of KUDU High school

"Yea" I replied "I think we're in the same classes."

"Well, that's good to hear." he said. After dumping our books in our lockers (They were on opposite sides of the hall) we then walked around to a wall at the back of the school. There was a group of people there, some leaning against the wall others sitting on bonnets of cars. They seemed to be dressed in jeans and with black greased up hair. I recognized them as Greasers. A group of guys Soda had told me about the night before while playing poker. "We're all classified as Greasers." he'd begun while taking some cards from the deck. "It's just a name, a gang of the Tulsa society but Soc's take it seriously and will jump you even if you dress like one, like you last night." he then explained the whole Soc Vs Greaser deal and I finally began to understand the reasoning behind my attack.

"Hey Soda" One of the guys smoking a joint called from the car bonnet. "Who's your friend?"

"This is Jessi" Soda replied walking over and taking a seat next to the guy. "She's crashing with us for a while."

I lent against the headlight of the car and look at the guy who Soda was talking to. He was tall and had blonde hair. He had a good build and seemed friendly enough.

"Hey I'm Ben" he said taking a puff of his smoke. "And this is Isabelle" There was a girl sitting beside him who I hadn't even noticed before. They were obviously dating. She was short and had long Brown straight hair. She had green eyes that glistened in the rays of the morning sun.

"Just call me Izzy" she said giving me a smile "Come sit over here."

I took her offer and took a seat next to her. The guys began talking about some new car deal or promotion they had heard of which gave me a chance to get to know Izzy.

"So how long have you been in Tulsa?" She said twirling her finger and around her hair.

"Not long I kinda just dropped by" I replied "Spur of the moment thing, if you know what I mean."

"Yea, I get cha" She replied.

"So what do we do around here except schoolwork?" I asked her.

"Nothing much just bum around pick on the Soc's, stuff like that." she replied

Just then the bell rung, signaling the beginning of our first day. I jumped of the car, said goodbye to Izzy who had a different class to me and began to walk back towards my locker.

"Slow down speedie." Soda said as he appeared at my side. "I'm your tour guide and we can't have you getting lost."

We grabbed out our science books and headed to HS4 (High School Room 4) It was a large science lab with benches all around. I sat down at one in the back of the classroom. Soda sat beside me.

"Take your seats." Mr. Carlder said as he came into the room. "Today we are going to be investigating the internal structure of the rat. If you will please grab your equipment and begin. You will find your rat in the storeroom separating us from HS5." He wrote on the board page number 156. I opened my book and prepared myself.

"I'll get the rat" Soda said as he got up and began to move.

I grabbed 2 aprons and a set of glasses off the hooks on the wall. I found the scalpels and pins in the cupboard beneath me. Just then Soda came back and set down a rat down on the bench.

"That Is Disgusting." I said looking at what I was about to dissect.

"I know" Soda said "Wouldn't want to find that in the cafeteria, would ya?"

"No way!" I replied "You cut I'll write" I said as I began to write down the experiment in to my book. Soda took the scalpel and began to cut a line down the center of its stomach. It was awful. When the bell rang to signal lunch I was thankful to have survived without throwing up.

The rest of day was pretty good. I didn't come face to face with anymore rats which was a bonus for me. Lunch was gross. Cafeteria food I'd forgotten how bad it was. My afternoon lessons were math and English. I didn't care much for math and found it hard to stay awake as Mr. Fielder Babbled on. But in English I was in my element every-thing made sense and it was one subject I knew I would get an A in. Soda wasn't with me in this class though. But I had Izzy and we kept each other company.

When the time came to go home I said goodbye to Iz and walked to my locker. Soda was already at his pile ling stuff into his bag. I gave him my math and English books, shut my locker and begin to walk with him.

"So how to you like school so far?" he asked once again holding the doors open for me.

"It's ok I guess" I replied

Darry's car was already parked and he beeped at us as we appeared. We rushed over and jumped in. Pony was waiting for us in the car.

"Hey guys" he said as we buckled our seatbelts. "Ready to go?"

"Definitely." Soda replied "Get me outta this joint."

Darry pulled away and we were off bound for home.
