Chapter 4 Conversation

Mia's POV Homeroom

Geometry took most of my time last night. I was up until 1 trying to figure out the problems. Michael IMed me last night and I printed out our conversation:

LinuxRulz: Hey Mia. How's algebra coming along?

FtLouie: You mean Geometry.

LinuxRulz: No I mean algebra

FtLouie: Well guess what Mr. Smarty-Pants? I got into Geometry.

LinuxRulz:

FtLouie: What happened to you? You're not mad because I called you a smarty-pants, are you?

LinuxRulz:

FtLouie: Look I was just joking about that.

FtLouie: MICHAEL!

LinuxRulz: Sorry I just zoned out for a moment. No need to yell. And no I'm not mad about the smarty-pants thing.

LinuxRulz: I cannot believe you got into Geometry…

FtLouie: You don't need to tell me about my lack of intelligence. I already know.

LinuxRulz: I didn't acknowledge you your lack of intelligence. I'm just saying that even though you're a genius your math skills aren't that great.

FtLouie: Which in other words means you acknowledged my lack of math skills for a genius.

LinuxRulz: That's not what I said.

FtLouie: That's what you meant.

LinuxRulz: Look I don't want to fight about this.

FtLouie: Sure you don't.

LinuxRulz: I just wanted ask you if you need any help with alge – I mean – geometry, I can help you during G&T.

FtLouie:

LinuxRulz: Mia?

FtLouie: Y- yeah sure t-that b-b-be great.

LinuxRulz: Mia, are you okay?

FtLouie: yeah I'm f-fine.

LinuxRulz: oh yeah since you're in Geometry, whose class are you in?

FtLouie: Ms. Spears. Why?

LinuxRulz: Oh okay. No reason.

That was so weird. Why would he want to know why which class I'm in for geometry? But he's going to tutor me in G&T and that's for sure.

French

I told Tina the conversation I had with Michael and she replied

Duh I told you he likes you Mia – T

No he doesn't. He's just trying to be nice. – M

But he took you to the Graduation Dance last year remember? – T

I know but still. Harry asked you to the dance. He doesn't like you like that. – M

That's different. – T

How Tina? He's a boy. He asked you to the dance. Michael's a boy, he asked me to the dance. Just because Harry asked you does not mean he likes you. It's the same thing with me and Michael. – M

No it doesn't Mia. Harry and I are just friends – which reminds me, don't forget to tell me about Felix after school – he asked me as a friend and I went with him as a friend. Michael asked you because he likes you. And you went with him because you like him. Do you deny it? – T

No – M

Exactly! – T

But that doesn't exactly prove that Michael likes me. – M

It's pretty obvious Mia. – T

It is? – M

Of course, he hel-

Unfortunately Tina didn't finish writing her note because Madam Klein saw her writing when she was supposed to be looking at the board.

Lunch

OMG I am so tired. We had to do the pre - fitness testing today and we had to run 1 ¾ mile. I didn't finish last but it was pretty tiring. You know, running around the track.

G&T

When I came into the G&T room, Michael was sitting next to my usual spot, with his laptop. I took a deep breath and walk to my usual seat, sat down, and said, "Hey Michael."

"Hi Mia, just hold on a second, let me finish next month's edition of Crackhead."

Well I was curious so I took a peek at it. The layout was Star Wars. But before I can look at it in detail, Michael caught me and close and saved the document and turned off him computer.

At last, I managed to grumble, "Sorry."

"It's okay. You were going to see it next month anyways."

"But on the actual web page you have some documents that are locked. And the layout requires you to subscribe."

"God Mia. I already said that it was okay."

"Sorry."

"Never mind, I don't want to fight about this. Let's get moving."

Then for the rest of the period, he didn't talk to me except to explain geometry. I wonder what made him so touchy today. He's usually the one full of enthusiasm.

But with his explanation, I actually finished the homework with 30 minutes to spare in G&T. Michael went back to his computer to work on Crackhead. I, not wanting to disturb him, worked on my novel notes. I came up with the following:

1) A girl found out that she's princess and tries to decide whether or not to accept the throne (except this wouldn't work because I know nothing about being a princess. I'm not anywhere near of being a princess myself)

2) Girl meet boy. Girl likes boy. Girl loves boy. Girl marry boy. Boy meet girl. Boy like girl. Boy love girl. Boy cheats on his wife. (This is not possible. As in I'll never know what it's like to be loved by a boy that's not your dad or brother or someone related to you.)

3) A boy's guide to girls (J/K! )

4) A story about my life but writes it as someone else (now this is possible. I know this is possible. I mean come on, how hard can it be to write an autobiography of yourself but not say it's an autobiography?).

Writing

Okay, so you know how I was talking about English being a piece of cake? Well it's not. My plan for a short summary became very tricky. You see, not many important things happens in my life. So, instead I summed up a resume - which was fine - as the following:

Name: Amelia Thermopolis (known as Mia)

Age: 14

Year in School: Freshman

Sex: Female

Description: 5 ft 9, grey eyes, triangular messy hair

Hobbies/Interests: Writing, surfing the internet, reading

Pet: 1 cat Fat Louie or Louie for short.

Best Friend: Tina Hakim Baba. She has been my friend since 4th grade.

Coincidentally, Felix as well, did a resume. This made my job easier.

Name: Felix Shortridge

Age: 14

Year in School: Freshman

Sex: Male

Description: 5 ft 9, brown eyes, short brown hair

Hobbies/Interest: Reading, surfing the net

Pets: 2 dogs

Best Friend: Michael Moscovitz. They are in Computer Club together.

He didn't give out his pet's name; however, as he said it was way too embarrassing. The teacher didn't ask further to give him his privacy.


Thanks to Liss and Kristin for the advice. I'll be sure to change it in the future. ).

schwartzibrow - yes I did know Felix's last name. It's nothing really.
