The day went horrifyingly slow. We watched hour-long videos in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd period. I wondered if the teachers knew that I wanted to get out of this place as soon as I possibly could, but they decided to bore me to death. Lunch came and went too fast, I barely remembered what Rachel and Lance (my two best friends that were giving having a relationship a shot) were fighting about. Then 4th and 5th period went by faster than expected, not to my liking at all.
Soon enough 6th period came and I felt like I was about to die. I couldn't bare to think of looking into his beautiful face... but I did. My heart stopped beating when I did, and I could feel my face flush. I really don't want to be here, I thought to myself, hoping it wasn't completely obvious to the class, but mostly just to him. Normally I couldn't wait for this period to come, but now I wasn't so sure. William stared at me as I entered the room. I took a seat on the edge of my chair, shaking, and I knew he didn't want to sit that close to me. Suddenly he began to smile the most perfect smile I'd ever seen. I could hardly stand it. His teeth were as straight and white as you see on the people in commercials, except his were real. His beautiful... purple eyes? Hmm... Maybe he wears contacts? Yesterday his eyes were a deep mahogany. I guess he's not as perfect as I thought. Oh well... To my standards he's perfect.
"WHAT AM I THINKING?!?" I thought to myself confused. Whoops... I think I said that out loud. I had to stop doing that, I thought to myself, annoyed now.
When I was little, a boy named Peter moved to our town, whom I grew to have a huge crush on. Whenever I saw him my thoughts kind of blurted out, even when I was daydreaming.
Maybe I'm attracted to him… I thought this over for a few seconds. Nope, I lied to myself to make me feel better. But then my stomach began twisting beneath me, I couldn't control it anymore.
I threw up.
"EEEWWWW!" I could hear Laurie say from across the room. She was the most obnoxious person in the world, but she still got whatever she wanted.
I heard some other students giggle, and William came to my side right away.
"Are you okay, Raylee?" He seemed truly concerned.
"I must have gotten food poisoning," I lied. I could tell he knew I was lying too. It was obvious in my tone of voice.
"I'll take her to the nurses office…" William offered.
"Okay. Make sure she gets there fine." The teacher looked a little green herself. "Daniel call the office, have them come and clean this horrid mess up."
"Yes, Ma-am," he said annoyed with her tone. Daniel was the teacher's pet.
"Sorry," I whispered to Mrs. Robertson while exiting her room.
"Don't worry dear, I would've had the same reaction." I gave her a confused look when we were a few feet out the door. I would have to ask her about that later.
