Dear Journal,
Got onto the bus. As usual, I sat at the back of it. All alone. I had almost missed the bus. Again. God, I HATE riding it! At least the jocks didn't notice me on the bus. I hate riding the bus! I would rather walk, but mom says that it is way to far, and unless I want to get up at like 3:00 to start walking, and not want to get there early, that I would have to learn to 'get along' with the other kids. Yeah right, like that's ever going to happen!
Got off of the bus. Some kid knocked into me making me drop my stuff. I yelled, " Hey bastard, watch it next time you dumb ass," which actually came out as, " Sorry. That was my bad. I'll watch it next time." Oops. Maybe next time I'll tell him off.
When I thought things couldn't get any worse, it did. I looked up and there was Gabe, looking directly up at me. He said, " Hi Casey. Ready for some fun?"
"Uh, it depends on what your opinion of fun is." I answered truthfully. "This." He grabbed my new T- shirt, and picked me up. Everyone was looking at me. I could have just smiled and said 'Oh go on. Don't mind me. Happens all the time,' and said that truthfully!
He had me by the dump, when a miracle happened. A girl that had moved here a week or so ago, approached Gabe. She started sweet -talking him. I thought ' Oh wonderful. Now the new girl likes him.' But, to my surprise, she told him off! Told Gabe off! NO ONE had EVER told him off before! I wanted to scream, " Go new girl, or whatever your name is. Run for your life!" , but then it happened! Gabe called her something. It sounded like baby, but boy did it make her mad! She kicked him in the BALLS! He dropped me and The girl left! Wow! Someone in this school that is really nice! Nobody had ever done anything like that for me before!
I made my mind and jogged after her. When I got up close, I read her backpack, that said Aurora.
"Hey Aurora?" She turned around and looked at me. She even smiled at me. Wow! She was a honey! She was even prettier than Delilah! She had brown straight hair at the top, and at the bottom curly hair. It had blonde highlights. Are they real or fake? Anyway, it's mid arm length. She was pretty short though. About to my nose, and she was wearing high-heels! I stared into her beautiful brown eyes, and slightly tanned, clear skin. What a pretty girl! She looked at me for a second, when I realized that I was staring at her.
"Yeah?" Still smiling. "Thanks. I uh. no one has ever stood up for me like that before.that was nice of you.but, why did you do that?" I said hinting kicking Gabe. She smiled even more, showing perfect teeth. She just looked at me for a second, before beginning.
"I think that people that claim that they are popular, dress like jocks, and beat people up are JURKS! No one deserves to get beaten up. Plus he called me baby. I was about ready to hand his balls to him!"
I couldn't help but laugh at this. When I glanced around, I noticed how every eye around was staring at us! I just knew that she would roll her eyes and leave, but I was wrong. She actually didn't seem to care. I knew that I was going to enjoy her for the rest of the year.
Later
All day, I couldn't help but think about Aurora. Her beauty, and kindness. She could have just walked off and ignored me, but she didn't. She saved my clothes, and actually listened to ME!
All morning, I had heard gossip going around about Aurora and I flirting. Figures. When someone's nice to me people make a huge deal about it.
Lunch
During lunch I sat by myself. Again. It gets kind of lonely, but I should be used to it by now. I couldn't help but every once in a while look at her. Uh oh! She hangs with Delilah! Bad! That means Delilah is probably filling her head with lies and hate about me. 'Shut it out Casey. She doesn't give a cent about you anyway.' I still couldn't eat my packed lunch. I opened it though. And as always there was a note in it from my mom. Is that why I am picked on? Because I have a mom that loves me? That is a really good question.
Then it happened again. Aurora got up and disposed her trash, and came up to me! She once again smiled at me. She asked if she could sit next to ME! What a day! I told her that she could, because I wasn't expecting anyone anyway. She gave me a sympathetic look. Then a football player, bumped into me, causing me to drop my bag.
"Hey watch it geek!" "Hey. You need to watch it! You bumped into him. He didn't bump into you!"
What the fuck was she doing. Not that it was a bad thing. She could get hurt acting like this towards football players! I heard him mutter his apologies, and then he left. But before that, he cast her a very cold glance, but she wasn't afraid! She just popped her head and turned back to me. Wow!
"That's twice." I said unbelieving. "Okay," she answered giving me a blank look. "The person who said that you were stuck-up like Delilah, needs to seriously go and masturbate!" She smiled at me before giggling. Was she flirting with ME? Not that I would dare ask! I decided to drop it. We both looked at the ground at my ruined sandwich. "Come on Casey. I'll buy you a new lunch." WHAT? She sticks up for me twice and NOW she want's to buy me lunch? "No thank you." I said ignoring my stomach's growls, but she just looked at me and ran off. Great ass-hole! You did it again Casey! I said to myself. I just sat down again, and put my cheek in my hand.
Much to my surprise she actually returned, with a really good looking lunch! I was speechless. I wanted to give her a huge bear hug! Man I couldn't wait to tell my mom about Aurora!
"I'll pay you back Rora," was all I could manage to say. I wondered where the hell I came up with Rora! "Nope!" Was what she answered me! Nope? Why! She deserved it she was what I could call a real angel! My Angel! I couldn't believe it. I am in love with Aurora!
Class
On the football field, I found something! It looks like a.a.I don't know! It Is so weird! I then went straight to Mr. Furlong! The one cool teacher that I had! When I showed it to him he was puzzled. People started to crowd around his desk. About what I had found. What had I found? No! Mr. Furlong said that I found something new! Wow!
"Excuse me?"
Just when I asked that, Aurora walked into our classroom. She asked Mr. Furlong, for some graph paper. I smiled at her. She smiled back. Unfortunately, she left without the paper.
Just before she passed me a note. Her phone #! Awesome! Life is cool after all!
