Torn From the Present
Chapter 7: Truce...?
Luke Bolton absentmindedly wandered through the halls of East Middle School, looking down at his new schedule. It read:
1-Science- 207
2-Math-204
3-L.A.-201
4- Ad. Writing-301
5-Drama-102
6-Geography- 206
7- World History-205
8-Study Hall- 203
How was he supposed to get to each room? Second floor, second floor, second floor, third floor, first floor, Lunch (first floor), second floor, second floor, second floor. He only had four minutes between each class as well! At least he know where hte science room was...

Lorraine's POV
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lorraine sat in her first period class, science, writing what would be a letter, to her pen pal. Her dad didn't know his last name, Danforth. His first name was James, and he was from New York!
As the bell rang, Lorriane finished her letter, stood up, and walked to the front of the classroom. She looked at her schedule, which was resting ontop of her binder. Her next class was math, in room 204, and unfortunately for her, she had it with Luke.
As usual, Lorraine's class had to wait outside the classroom as the previous class exited. While this happened, Lorraine looked through her letter, making sure that she said all that she wanted. Through the corner of her eye, she saw that the line had moved, so she walked a few steps foreward, which was a mistake. She had run into the person standing in front of her. He turned around. Lorraine was instantly relieved when she saw that it was Luke.
"Oh, sorry Luke" she said.
"What was that for? Not satisfied that you embarrassed me in front of my whole family?"
Oh, great. He's making a scene of it. Just perfect. Lorraine thought sarcastically.
"Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to 'embarrass' you the other night, and I'm sorry for not paying attention and bumping into you. Ok?" she said, walking into the classroom.
Lorraine suddenly felt something grab her shoulder. She turned to see that Luke had grabbed her.
"Come here." he said, pulling her aside.
"What do you want with me?"
" I want to propose a truce between us. I mean, this fighting is getting us nowhere... am I right?" he said quickly.
"I guess..." she looked at her watch" I'll consider it, bet we'd better get to class; the bell rings in 10 seconds."

8th Period, Study Hall
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lorraine was reading a note Luke passed to her, while the rest of the class was reading 'Sounder'.
Lorraine,
Can you please hurry up? I'd really like to know soon. Can you tell me when the bell rings? Meet me... outside the math room... ok?
Luke Bolton
Typical Luke... Lorraine thought. She scribbled down a response (Sure, why not?).
Then, suddenly, the classroom PA came on. "Mrs. Russ? Lorraine Evans is to ride home with Luke Bolton."
"Thank you!"Mrs. Russ called.
Lorraine shot a quizzical look in Luke's direction. He just shrugged.
As the bell rang, Lorraine glared at Luke, who was walking towards her. He ignored her glares, and grabbed her wrist, pulling her towards the car rider line.
"Stop glaring at me! I didn't have anything to do with this!"
"Ok..."
A/N: Ok. I didn't like this chapter at all. It was suckish. But I have an amazing idea, I just need to put it in action. (Which is harder than it looks) Please review! I'd really appreciate it! And any ideas are welcome. I'm gonna put some Chad, Taylor, and Sharpay in the next chapter, meaning it's probably going to be from their POV... ok, I'll shut up so you can review...
Fangirl44, thank you SO much for reviewing!
