Anything but ordinary

That same morning I followed the boys to "Tibbys" a quaint little restaurant filled to the brim with hungry boys. I stood in the doorway, gazing out upon the room trying to find someplace to sit, someone who will let me into their world. I was in desperate need of a friend, someone to confide in.
I finally decided to muster up all of my courage and sit down at a table. I gazed across the room with a hopeful heart, looking for a familiar face.
I looked at a table full of familiar faces, and noticed them all waving my way! The boys from the Lodging House had remembered me and wanted me to sit with them! My face lit up and I began walking towards the table with so much enthuse, and a smile the stretched from ear to ear. All of a sudden I was gently pushed aside and a girl about my age with big emerald eyes and a smile that could light up the room, she was heading towards their table, shaking her hips as she walked.
The boys had been waving to her. asking her to sit with them.
My heart dropped as I began to feel tears welling in my eyes. I could feel my face getting hot and turning red.I clenched the locket that was around my neck and stood there, frozen in my embarrassment.
The girl gave each boy a hug, and a kiss on the cheek. you could almost see the boys hearts pounding as her lips touched their cheeks, and the excitement it gave them.
I turned my back to run out of the restaurant. I couldn't stay here with these boys. They all hated me, merely because my hips didn't shake and I had the curves of a twelve year old boy. As I almost reached the door. I felt someone grab my hand.
I spun around to look at the only thing that kept me from going back home.. Jack.
"Let me go Jack," I stared deep into his eyes, "I don't belong here! "
"You just got here!" He laughed, I felt as I could die right then and there. He was so beautiful. so heavenly. "Listen Bailey, don't worry about the boys, theyse only got one thing on their mind." He winced at me as he wiped the tears from my cheeks. "Will you do me the honor of keeping me company during breakfast?"
Nodding my head slowly, he grabbed my hand and took me over to where he had been sitting previously. I sat down in the chair next to him, and ordered my meal. A couple other boys from the LH introduced themselves to me as Mush, Racetrack and Crutchy.
I could tell Crutchy had a good heart, Mush had this oblivious innocence about him and Racetrack seemed to use his sarcasm to cover up what he truly felt inside.
Being so quiet had it's advantages, I had a lot more time to listen, and to observe. I could tell you about almost every person in that room, I could pinpoint almost every single persons character traits to the exact.
I smiled as I realized that these boys were finally accepting me, and I looked at Jack. hoping for that look in his eyes that let me know everything would be alright.
"Sarah!" Jack said as his face lit up and he rose from the table and almost galloped across the room to meet a pretty girl with big brown eyes and beautiful thick brown hair. Without even saying a word to him she took hold of his collar and kissed him good, and kissed him long and hard.
My heart dropped. Again.
