Spinner
My mouth almost dropped when I saw her. She had a skateboard in one hand and her cd player in another. She had a dashboard confessional tee on. She was HOT!
I hope that's her, I thought.
"What was that, Gavin?" Ms. Kwan asked.
Guess I didn't just think that. "What was what?" I said.
"Did you just say 'I hope that's her' ?"
"Um. No?"
"Um. Yes. Well that is her," she said walking to let the girl in, "Hello Alli. I'm Ms. Kwan and this is Gavin Mason. He is going to be your guide."
She smiled. Boy did she have a great smile. I could just stare into those pearly whites all day. And her hair. It's so shiny. And...
"Hello?!? Earth to Gavin??" Alli said, waving her hand into my face.
"Sorry. It's a little too early for me right now. What's your name again?"
"Alli. Alli Henderson. So do you want to start showing me around?" she asked.
Did I ever? "Sure," I said, leading her out the door, "don't call me Gavin. Call me Spinner. That's my name."
She laughed. "Sure, SPINNER. Just call me Alli. That's my name."
"That was a real knee slapper."
"Hey I was just kidding. Okay, so what grade are you in?"
"10." (A/n: Let's pretend Spinner never got held back... lol!)
"Cool. Me too."
"You skateboard?" I asked her.
"Oh yeah! I'm headed to the skate park right after school! Do you skateboard?"
"Yeah. But I don't go to the park too often cause the guys never wanna chill there. So I just mess around in the street or up here a lot."
"Oh. Well you can come with me after school. I mean, if you want.." she asked, blushing.
YEAH THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!! "Sure. Sounds good. I'll meet you after 6th period. What's your 6th period?"
"Umm.. Mr. Simpson."
"Oh me too," I said laughing.
I grabbed her schedule. She had every single class with me! YESS!! "Hey, you have every class with me."
"Yeah, I figured. And Raditch said that we share a locker."
"That's cool. I'm kind of messy though, I hope you don't mind."
Alli*
"IS THAT SPINNER MASON BEING NICE TO SOMEBODY?!??" a pretty blonde shouted.
Spinner turned around. "Shut up Paige."
She turned to me and gave me a look over. She didn't look like she approved. "And uh, who is this?" she asked.
"This is Alli. She is new here. I'm her guide. Raditch assigned me." He said.
"Obviously. I know you wouldn't be hanging out with her anyway, right sweetie?" she said, rubbing her hand in his hair.
I felt a surge of anger. I just wanted to hit her. Dumb b..
My thoughts were interrupted by Spinner. "Paige. I know you're jealous that I'm actually talking to another girl and im not all gaga over you. Just get over it. I don't like you anymore. Besides, she's cool. But you wouldn't know cool if it slapped you in the face."
HA!
Her face turned bright red! "Fine! Whatever. You can have your little skank. I'm going to go and hang out with CRAIG. Because at least he knows who's hot and who's not!!"
That was it! She turned around and her hair blew in my face. In one motion, I grabbed her hair and pulled her down to the ground. "I may not be as 'hot' as you,' I said doing air quotes, "but at least I know where I stand, and it sure ain't on my back!"
