Chapter 2: Rejection
"Marissa Schwartz,"
"Here,"
"Carl Simpson,"
"Here,"
"Sue Studdard,"
"Here,"
"Nicholas Tipon,"
"Here,"
"Jessie Vernandez,"
"Here,"
"Hector Zeroni,"
"Here,"
It was the first class of the day, biology. They're teacher, Mr. Manon, has just finished taking role.
"The first thing that happens every day is we get the announcements on the TV by out principal, Mrs. Deatherage."
Just then, the TV, which was on, showed a lady with shoulder length wavy hair. She was sitting as her desk and smiling.
"Hello students, and welcome back for another year! We don't have many announcements today, except that this Friday is our first dance. The Homecoming dance. There will be a meeting after school today for anyone who wishes to be on the dance committee. Thank you, and have a nice day." The TV turned off.
"Now, usually on the first day of school, teachers would have the kids sit in alphabetical order and play a name game so everyone could remember each others name. Well, that's what we're gonna do." He grinned.
Everyone in the class groaned.
"But," He said quickly. "It's gonna be a little different. Pick out someone in the class WHO YOU DON'T KNOW," He had a gleam in his eye. "And then they will do the boring stuff. Name, where you're from, hobbies, what you did over the summer and stuff like that. And then the cycle continues. Okay, well... let's have Mr. Zeroni go first."
Zero froze. He wasn't good in front of people. What would he say? Should he say he went to a Juvy camp over the summer? Oh yeah, a great way to start the year. Hi, I'm Hector Zeroni, I like digging holes, and over the summer I was sent a Juvenile Delinquent camp for stealing some shoes. Okay next! They'd love him for that.
"Um, Mr. Zeroni? Please stand up and tell us about yourself." Mr. Manon told him kindly.
Zero slowly stood up. "Um, my name is Hector Zeroni, and my hobbies are... um, my hobbies are..." Zero stammered, frantically trying to make up a hobby. "Basketball, and over the summer I..." Basketball? What was wrong with him? He's five foot two! He's too short for basketball! "Over the summer I... hung out at the beach with friends." He finished quickly and sat down.
Mr. Manon nodded. "Very good. Now, would you like to pick someone to go next?"
Zero nodded and looked around. His eyes fell on the girl Marissa. She's beautiful, He thought to himself. She had a bit longer than shoulder length blonde hair. It was perfectly straight and layered. It had little streaks of pink, blue, and black in it. She had deep blue eyes that Zero got lost in.
"Ahem," Mr. Manon got his attention. "Pick someone."
"Oh, um, Carl," He said and turned away so no one saw him blush.
It was lunchtime, and the freshman's had A lunch with the sophomores. Zero found Twitch with Stanley and X-ray.
"Hey guys," Zero said sitting down.
"Hey Zero," They said back.
"Hey, what d'you guys think of the dance this Friday?" X-ray smirked. "Anyone you guys are thinkin of asking?"
Zero blushed and turned away, just like in biology. But his friends noticed.
"Hey Z, what's with the blush?" Twitch nudged him.
"Nothing," Zero said quickly.
"Mm-hm. Who d'ya wanna ask?" X-ray asked him.
Zero sighed. "This girl named Marissa. She's in my biology class."
"Marissa Schwartz?" Zero nodded.
"She's in my French class." Twitch told him. "She's okay lookin."
"I think she's beautiful," Zero told them dreamily.
"Well then go ask her out!" X-ray exclaimed.
"Yeah, go on Zero. She'll say yes. Don't worry." Caveman soothed.
Zero took a deep breath. "Okay," He got up to find her. (AN: GO ZERO!!!!
He found her a few minutes later sitting with her friends. He took another deep breath and said shakily, "Um, hi Marissa."
Marissa turned around and smiled at him. "Hey. You're in my biology class, right?"
He nodded.
"Yeah, you're Hector. What's up?" She smiled.
"Um... I was wondering... if... um..." He gulped. "I was wondering if you wanted to..." He couldn't do it. It was just too embarrassing. But he had to now. He couldn't back out of it.
"What? Want to what?" She pressed on.
"Doyouwannagotothedancewithme?" He said very fast.
Marissa stared. "Uh, what?"
"Do you wanna go to the dance with me?" He said more calmly and slowly this time.
"Oh... um... well, I sorta never thought of you and me... actually going out." She smiled. "Sorry." It didn't sound at all like she meant it. She turned around and started ignoring him.
Zero was shocked. She rejected him. He thought she was going to say yes, but she said no. She said no like it didn't even matter. He slowly walked back to his friends.
"So dog? What'd she say?" X-ray asked.
"She said no," Zero whispered.
"What?!" They were shocked.
"SHE SAID NO ALRIGHT! NO! NO NO NO NO NO!" Zero shrieked and then got up and stormed off.
The boys stared blankly after him.
"Damn them. Telling me she would say yes. She'll like me. I know it. Sooner or later she'll come up and ask me out."
"Um, Hector?" A small voice asked.
Zero turned around. He saw a girl there.
"Who are you?" He asked, surprisingly rudely.
"Um, I'm Jessie Vernandez. I'm in your biology class. Um, I was wondering..." She had her head down, but Zero could tell she was blushing. She was pretty, but not as beautiful as Marissa was. Jessie had long, shiny, sleek black hair and she has down and it was curly. She had a few streaks of brown in her hair, and Zero thought she had green eyes, but couldn't tell.
"What?"
"Do you wanna go to Homecoming with me?" She whispered.
Zero was surprised. Why would she ask me? He thought. He was about to say no, but then got an idea. I can go to the dance with her, and then Marissa will get jealous, and then she'll ask me out, and then Marissa and I will be a couple. It's perfect.
"Sure," He said.
Her head snapped up. "Really?" She squealed.
He nodded and smiled.
"Oh, thank you!" She ran over and hugged him and then skipped off.
Zero stared after her and then started walking back to his friends. But as he was walking back, he started pondering if he was doing the right thing.
