The first day of school was over, and Alanna was on the bus back home. She was annoyed about what happened with Jonathan, but became more annoyed when she found that he wasn't on the bus with her. Neither was Thayet.
"What's bothering you?" asked the slender brown haired May.
"Nothing really. Just wish that I could go back to elementary school," said Alanna with a deep sigh.
"Why would you ever want to go back?!" exclaimed May. "I mean I guess I understand. I would also be really annoyed if one of my friends and a strange girl were flirting with my boyfriend."
"JONATHAN IS NOT MY BOYFRIEND!" shouted Alanna. Then she blushed when she realized how loudly she had yelled.
"Oh I'm sorry I just thought.well the way he was looking at you.I mean.he is so hot and you are so pretty. I just figured.well never mind," stuttered May. She didn't want to get her newly made friend mad at her. Alanna didn't want to answer. She didn't trust herself. Everyone else at school knew about her temper, but May was new. Instead she thought about her favorite baseball game. The bases were loaded, and it was the last inning. She was up to bat, and was the only girl on the team. The pitcher snickered at the skinny girl in front of him. "Who had ever heard of a 5th grader in a team with all boys," he thought to himself. Alanna was enraged when she saw that he was laughing at her. The ball came flying towards her and she hit it out of the park, winning the game for her team. Gary and Jonathan were so happy. She was constantly trying to prove her worth, but then Alanna remembered what happened later that night. Jonathan and Alanna were at her tree house discussing the game. They were waiting for Gary to arrive. Then so unexpectedly Jonathan quickly kissed he on the lips and pulled away. He knew what the redhead would do to him. Sure enough Alanna punched him in the stomach before he pulled away. She had avoided him for a week, but the cool and calm Gary patched things up. Then Alanna realized how angry thinking of that story made her. "I am such a dork if I am still mad at Jonathan's kiss in 5th grade," she thought to herself.
"Hey Alanna.Hello.this is your stop," said May nudging her.
"Oh thanks. See you tomorrow," said Alanna. She saw Jonathan's house (which was next to hers). "Tomorrow I will wake up and everything will be alright," thought Alanna.
