Chapter 2

I stepped off the bus, scared about what was going to happen.
"Whatever you do Lizzie, don't let your guard down!" Miranda whispered as she got off the bus after me.
"We'll be over there if you need us," Gordo said and pointed as he and Miranda walked off.
I then felt a hand gently tugging my arm over to the back of the bus. I looked up at Ronnie, who was staring me with those blue eyes that once stole my heart. I looked at him for a moment, and then asked,
"What did you want to talk about?"
He looked at me for a few seconds then said, "I wanted to apologize for what a dick I was last year."
"Oh, well I haven't thought about it for a while, so I guess it's ok." I said quickly, hoping this would be over with.
I was just about to walk away when he began again.
"I was hoping that you and I could start over. You know maybe try again?"
He looked like he really wanted this, his eyes pleading. I looked at him and sighed,
"I think we did it wrong the first time. Why don't we just be friends and let it go from there? Would that be ok with you?"
"Yeah! That would be awesome!" he said excitedly.
"Well I have to go but we can talk at lunch or something."
"Ok, I can't wait!"
I gave him a small smile and walked over to Gordo and Miranda.
"So what happened?" Miranda asked as soon as I reached them.
"He apologized for last year and wanted to try again."
As I looked at Gordo, he seemed sad yet angry at the same time. Then I finished, "I told him that we should just be friends and see what happens from there. I think we did it wrong the first time."
I heard a sigh, which surprised me because it came from Gordo. After talking about it for a few seconds, we headed towards the doors of the school. As we walked in, Kate and her little posse came up.
"Well, well, well. Look what the cat dragged in. The loser squad!" Kate snickered and started to laugh.
As she did this, Gordo looked down and began to laugh. Then he asked,
"So Kate, is it me or is bloody tissue paper on your shoe a new trend?"
Miranda and I looked down as well and started to giggle. "What in the hell are you talking about, GorDork?"
"Why don't you look down and see for yourself!" I said through my giggling. She looked down at her shoe and then screamed.
"That is so not mine! Oh my god, that is so fuckin' nasty!" she said as she ran towards the ladies room. We kept laughing as we headed to the gym to get our schedules.
As we said our names, we looked at our classes and then compared each other's.
"OH MY GOD! We have like 5 out of 6 classes together!" Miranda squealed excitedly.
"Well you and Gordo have all your classes together. My last period is creative writing, while you have Supercomputing and Robotics." I said in a disappointed tone.
"Oh man that sucks, but it's only one period a day. I mean it could get worse." Gordo said.
"Yea that's true! But hey, you might meet a hot guy with a nick for writing!" Miranda said jokingly.
"True. " I said.
Then the intercom came on and a man said, "Will everyone please report to his or her first period class. Thank you."
"Well we should get to class." Miranda said.
"Yeah," I agreed. "We don't want to be late for our first class."
We had some trouble finding the class, but we managed. 'Well, this is it.' I thought as I walked through the door of Mr. Shauger's science class.
