Chapter 1:
It was finally 7th period, Alexis' lunch period. It had been a horrible day for her. First, she was late for 1st period and she had a test. And of course, last period. Her teacher had spent the entire period berating the class on their horrible essays.
'Oh boy, what a day. At least I have a free period where I can relax and do some schoolwork.'
Alexis went downstairs to the peer mediation office, where she usually spent her lunch period. She knocked on the door. A moment later, Sonny answered.
"Hey, Lex." He gave her a friendly hug. "How's it going?"
"Let's just say it's been a crappy day."
"Ouch. Hang in there."
Alexis walked in and dropped her books on a nearby table. Sonny was talking to Jason and Max. Alexis watched them for a moment and then she began reading one of the books she had. As soon as she was done with the page she was reading, Sonny came over.
"What are you doing?"
"Reading."
"Reading what?"
"Catcher in the Rye." She ignored him and kept on reading. Suddenly, Sonny snatched the book from her hands.
"Hey! Give that book back to me! I was reading that!" She snatched the book back.
"Geez, Lex. Chill out. I was just trying to have some fun. You're way too uptight sometimes." He gently squeezed her shoulders and walked back to his friends.
Just then, Carly walked in. Alexis hated her. She was a b*tch. But, for some reason, guys liked her. 'Must be the slutty way she dresses', Alexis mused. Sonny walked up to her and gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Alexis tried not to puke. 'Ok, Alexis, concentrate on this. Why is this part of the book significant to the story?' Just then, the bell rang. 'Crap. Time for Chemistry.'
"Sorry to interrupt, but Sonny, I have to go."
"You want us to walk you to class?" 'Go anywhere with Carly? Hell no.'
"Nope. That's okay. I'll meet you back here after 8th."
"Sure. Bye, Lex."
With that, Alexis gathered her stuff, walked out of the office and onto Chemistry class.
