Enjoy.
I woke up to the annoying beeping of my alarm clock. I groaned and slammed the off button with my fist. I was laying flat on my stomach my head half-way under my pillow. I always woke up in the weirdest positions.
When I tryed to roll over onto my back I suddenly fell on the hard wood floor with a loud thud. I jumped up. "Ow, Damnit." I hopped around on one foot holding the ankle I landed on wrong.
The clock said 6:40. If I was going to make it to school by 7:30 to get my schedule I better get going.
I pulled on the outfit I had picked out yesterday and looked myself over in the mirror. I didn't look half bad today. Atleast that was one thing I wouldn't have to worry about.
I grabbed my comb and brushed through my hair and plugged my straightener in. I bounded down the stairs while it heated up.
I opened the pantry and grabbed a pack of chocolate pop tarts and got myself a glass of milk. After I was done with that I went back upstairs to taim my messy curls. I had always hated my curly hair so my straightener and I were best of friends.
I decided to go with some mascara and some chap stick. I wasn't real huge on makeup. I thought I looked fine without all that cover up, blush, and eyeliner.
I trotted back to my mirror and smiled at my appearance. I was wearing my favorite skinny jeans that made my ass look amazing, if I do say so myself. And a black tank top with a plaid zip-up hoodie over top of it.
I smiled and dashed down the stairs to find my mom waiting by the door to leave.
I frowned and walked past her out the door. I was still mad that she was making me start my senior year in a new school.
The whole ride there it was quiet between me and my mother. Once we were in the parking lot of the school I got out of the car quickly. My mom started to pull out when she rolled the window down. "BYE SWEETY HAVE A GOOD DAY. MOMMY LOVES YOU!" That bitch. She shouted for the sheer purpose of embarrassing me infront of any students near by. And of course there was a group in front of a beat up blue truck who started snickering.
I turned to face my mothers car and smiled at her. She had a smug grin on her face. I stuck up my two middle fingers towards her and turned to face the school.
I saw her mouth form an 'O' shape before she drove away.
I started to walk towards the school with my backpack slung over my right arm when a girl from the group that was laughing turned to one of the guys beside her.
"God. They sure don't have any class in New York do they?" Her and her little boy pal laughed at her own joke. I turned on my heel to face her.
"Excuse me, got a problem?" I asked. A hint of shock hit her face for a moment before she composed herself. Looks like Queen Bee isn't used to people talking back.
She snorted. "You better watch who you talk to like that hun."
I smiled. "Why, what are you going to do 'hun'?" I took a step towards her direction. By now, many people in the parking lot had stopped to stare at us. Including him. When I saw him my heart stopped and picked up again in eratic beats. He was so gorgeous. And he was also laughing at what was going down between me and Queen bee. I didn't want to look away from him to face her, but the bitch still hasn't answered me.
I raised an eyebrow waiting for her answer.
She rolled her eyes and gave me a disgusted grunt and slowly walked away to the school with her 'possy' not far behind.
I smiled to myself and took off towards the main office to get my schedule.
----------------------------------------------
My first three periods went by in a blur. I was still a little fumed from the incident in the parking lot. So here I was in biology wondering what the hell the teacher was even talking about.
I always sucked at biology. Even in New York. So I knew it wasn't going to be any exception here. And the fact that Paul's gorgeousness was sitting at the table next to mine wasn't helping my concentration either.
It was halfway though the period and everyone was talking about the first project due in a few weeks and who they were going to pair up with. I didn't really care to pick a partner so I was focusing on ignoring everyone. Until the two boys in front of me turned halfway in my direction.
"Hey, I'm Jason. This is Bobby. We saw your little performance in the parking lot today. Nice." He winked at me. And out of my prefrial vision I was keeping on Paul I seen him turn my way.
"Uh yeah. She deserved it. Anyways, I'm Casey." I smiled. Jason gave me a creepy smile back. How many perverts were in this town? Seriously.
"You should totally sit with me and my friends at lunch today." He said turning his body completely around in his chair now.
I nodded. "Sounds good."
I was going to return to doodling when Paul adbruptly got up from his chair. The metal scraping the floor tiles. He walked over to the empty seat next to me and sat down.
"So, I was wondering. Would you want to work on the project with me?" He asked. I made the mistake of looking in his eyes and lost my voice. I could only nod in agreement.
His face seemed to light up at that little gesture. My face lit up with his. Why did he want to work with me? I totally had no idea about anything in biology and to top it off, I hadn't even been listening when he was explaining the project.
I sighed. I didn't care. As long as it got me some time with Paul.
Mr. Bell then called the class to attention, and asked if we had all picked out partners. After he was sure that everyone had a partner he let us on our own to read a article he had handed out. He said it would give us some ideas for topics to choose for the project. Which I still didn't know anything about.
"I want this room absolutely quiet until everyone is done reading. Got it?" Everyone nodded or murmured a yes in agreement.
I was a paragraph in when Paul turned towards me.
"So, arn't you happy you get to partner up with Paul the great?" His smile was huge.
I smiled and giggled a little.
"Well your not full of youself at all arn't you?" I whispered.
Mr. Bell's head snapped up at my noise and walked towards me and Paul. Paul went straight back to reading his article.
"Is there something you'd like to share with the class Ms. Rogers?" Mr. Bell had a smile on his face.
I snorted. "Nah, not really. But thanks for asking." Mr. Bell's face went red for a moment. And a few of the students giggled.
"Please do share. I'm sure we all would like to here." He narrowed his eyes.
"Sorry Mr. Bell, but I don't think its any of your damn business." I smiled at him.
He bent down to face me and Paul started to shake. "Listen Ms. Rogers I don't know what kind of school they ran in New York, but we do NOT swear in my classroom. Clear?"
"What? DAMN, sorry sir, I couldn't quite hear you." I smirked.
"To the office now." He pointed towards the door.
"I would gladly go, but I have no idea where it is Mr. Bell." I admitted.
Paul shot up. "I'll take her." He was already opening the door for me. "Ladies first." He smiled.
Paul led me down a long hall way and stopped in front of a big glass window with two doors. Above the glass doors big letters spelled out 'Principals office'. I snorted. I could've found this.
Paul grinned.
"So, quite the trouble maker, are you?" His grin grew in size.
I shrugged. "I got a temper on me."
Paul nodded. "I can tell. Don't worry though, I've got quite a temper myself."
Paul leaned closer to me. Our faces were only inches apart. "You shake when your angry." It wasn't a question.
His lips pulled up in a half smile. "So you've noticed." He said leaning closer. He reached his hand out and wrapped his big hands around my wrists. I felt his warm breath wash over my face.
Then the principal came out. His face a dark red.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat and me and Paul pulled apart.
I was blushing. Since when did I blush?
"So, I heard about your little incident in class today and this morning."
I raised my eyebrows.
"Yes, it got around. Now, in this school we do not talk back to teachers and we absolutely do not bully other students." I narrowed my eyes at him and bit back my smart ass remark.
He looked over towards Paul and rolled his eyes. "I see your hanging out with Paul. He's very familiar with this office. Arn't you Paulie?"
Paul's face looked menacing. "Yes sir."
Mr. Principal (I had no idea what his name was yet) turned back to me. "I suggest you find other friends Ms. Rogers. Being around Paul here could get you in quite a lot of trouble." He smiled. "And I don't want any other trouble from you today. That goes for you too Paul." And with that he turned on his heel and went back to his office.
Me and Paul waited until the door was closed before we both burst out laughing.
"So your familiar with the office eh?" I asked.
He chuckled. "I told you I had a temper." Then he rolled his eyes. "You break a kids nose once or twice and he automatically thinks your a bad kid."
I giggled. Me and Paul didn't move from our spot in front of the office until the lunch bell rang.
He looked down at me with a sad look in his eyes. "I gotta go find my friends. Talk to you later." Then he dashed down the hall leaving me dazed. Well that was lame.
I decided on just getting a lemonade for lunch. I wasn't that hungry.
When I got out of the lunch line Jason found me and led me to his table in the very back of the lunch room. There was Him, Bobby, and two other girls I recognized from my spanish and english class. They introduced themselves as Ashley and Rebecca. I decided to be nice to them. I could always use a few girl friends.
Lunch went on pretty well. Me and Paul would sneak glances at eachother and he would immediately look away and flush a brilliant red. I shook my head. That boy was all kinds of weird.
Me and Bobby were in the middle of talking about which band kicked harder ass; Linkin Park or Disturbed. I was going for Linkin Park and he was going for Disturbed. I only liked one song of Disturbed. They were a little to heavy for me. I was winning when miss Queen Bee herself walked past my table giving me a disgusting glare. She kept on walking and went and sat in Paul's lap. I clenched my fists and felt a wave of anger and jealously hit me.
Paul looked surprised to say the least. Then that surprise turned to anger. Then he began to shake. "Sara. Get. Your. Skanky. Ass. Off. Of me. NOW." He spat. I giggled at the look on her face and the disgusted one on Paul's. So Queen bitch's name was Sara, eh?
Sara slowly got off her face burning a dark shade of red. She started to stalk past my table narrowing her eyes at me. She stopped in front of me giving me what she thought was her menacing glare.
I smiled sweety. "Yes Sara?"
"Is there something funny whore?" I stood up.
"Yes, there is something funny skank." She balled her hands into fists. "Don't be a bitch because you got rejected. Sorry hunny, but I'm not the whore." I sat back down nonchalantly sipping my lemonade.
Sara stared at me for a second and walked away out of the lunch room.
As soon as she left my whole lunch table burst into fits of laughter. Rebecca held out her hand in a high five gesture. "Nice." She said giggling. I smiled and gave her the high five.
I think I was going to like this school.
-----------------------------------------------------
When the final bell rang I was out of my last class and opening my locker faster than anyone else. I just wanted to get home and sleep.
I threw in my math homework, not that I was going to do it, and slung my backpack over my shoulder. I shut my locker and there he was. Leaning against the lockers.
"Where'd you come from?" I looked around.
He chuckled. "My mom." I rolled my eyes. I started to walk towards the front door of the school when he put both arms on the lockers caging me in.
He smiled my favorite smile. "So, I was thinking. If you'd like to hang out with me sometime."
I raised one eyebrow. "As in a date?" He thought for a moment.
"Yeah, this Friday. Me and my friends will be at a bon fire. Wanna come?" I tapped my finger to my chin pretending to think about it.
"I guess that sounds cool. See you Friday." I ducked under his left arm and walked towards the glass doors.
