Ch.4
"Jeremie?"
"Here."
"Ulrich?"
"Here."
"Sissi?"
"Oh, Here!"
"Odd?"
"Here."
"Aelita?"
Silence.
"Aelita Hopper?"
Jeremie looked around the class room. Where in the world are you Aelita? Jeremie thought. Aelita was just here at the school about ten minutes ago.
"I guess she's not here." The teacher put a check next to Aelita's name and was about to hand it to a student as Aelita ran into the room, breathing heavily.
"Aelita!" The teacher half shouted at her, "Where have you been? Classes started at 7:55 am. Can you tell the class plus I what in the world were you doing while the bell rang?"
"Sorry, sir." Aelita said, "I was in the office, when I bumped into something and a pile of papers fell. I had to pick them up, sir."
"The most believable story yet, I have to hand it to you Miss Hopper," he said giving her a sarcastic smile, "the best one I have heard yet!"
He laughed, which caused the others to laugh. Aelita didn't bother; she took her seat and took out her books for the lesson. Jeremie looked at her. She was hiding something, and if it's important and she doesn't want to tell anybody, she becomes stubborn and doesn't say a word. Jeremie wasn't even going to try. The rest of the lesson went on in silence.
Later After Class…
"Nice lie, Aelita!" Odd said laughing as they all walked outside, "That was pretty good, I myself, the master of all pranks and lies to get out of class, could almost believe that before the teacher said all that junk."
"Well, you should have believed me Odd." Aelita wasn't too happy, not only getting in trouble with her World Geography teacher and being laughed at by the whole 7th grade class, it was also Ulrich. His name kept on appearing in her head, "I wasn't lying."
"Oh, come on, Aelita." Jeremie said a little irritated because his friend was lying to him, "The whole 7th grade body knows that wasn't true at all."
"Well sorry if it bothered you." Aelita was getting little mad at Jeremie, it was a believable thing right? It could really happen right?
"It really did happen, Jeremie." Ulrich spoke up, "She was in the office handing in her permission slip. I don't know about the whole bumping into the box and having the papers spill, but she was there and I don't think she would lie like that to her best friend."
Before any one could speck before him Aelita spoke, "Ulrich, can I talk to you for a second. In private?"
"Uh, maybe later. After school okay?" Ulrich looked up at her.
"Sure." Aelita started walking towards the classroom building.
"A new romance! Between Ulrich and Aelita. Oh, what fun that will be!" Odd was laughing.
"Not funny Odd." Ulrich said, he knew what Aelita wanted to talk about.
"Then how did you know she was in the office?" Odd said nudging him in the ribs, "And just why where you defending her just now?"
"I got my own reasons Odd, so just shut up." Ulrich started to walk away.
"Wow, touchy." Odd said, "Well, science next"
Just then the bell rang.
