Me: Yay! Chapter 3 is up!
Sherrice: Yay!
A young thirteen-year-old girl, with brown short hair that stopped to her neck, brown eyes, and wore a light blue shirt with a pink skirt and a light blue jacket, was running to school.
"Great, I'm late again. God, I wish I can fly." She said to herself as she ran into the school building.
She opened the classroom door and sat down in her seat.
"Ms. Thomas, that's the third time this week and it's the last day." The teacher said.
"Sorry…" she said. A girl tapped her on the shoulder and she leaned back in her chair.
"Sherrice, did you sleep in again?" the girl said.
"No… I just uhhh… didn't set my clock, yeah that's it." Sherrice laughed nervously.
"Yeah, you slept in." the girl smiled.
"Oh yeah, by the way Ms. Thomas," the teacher said, turning around to face her, "Since you were late, I hope you can figure out this problem. Oh, and I will add a little twist to it, if you figure it out, no work for the rest of the day, but if you don't, the whole class will take the final exam I've planned for them." The teacher laughed evilly.
"Weird…" Sherrice thought and walked up to the board.
The teacher handed her the marker and went to his desk to sit down and watch her.
"Ok, let's see, 5 to the second power times 12 plus 162 divide by 6…" Sherrice thought.
"Please don't get it wrong…" the girl pleaded.
Sherrice turned around and smiled, "Don't worry Kari; I won't, because I know the answer." Then she faced the teacher; "It's 77, right?"
"Heh, ok then, one more and I will keep my promise for sure." The teacher smiled, took out another marker from his desk and wrote and a new problem on the board.
The class sighed happily that Sherrice got the first problem right. When the teacher was done, he went back to his seat, "Ok, solve that one."
"Whoa this is hard…" Sherrice thought when she looked at the problem, "Ok, but I can do it. 18 to the second power times 5, that's 1620, plus 110, that's 1730; divide by 20, 86 with five left over, times 1000…" "Is it 86,500?" Sherrice asked the teacher.
"All right then…" the teacher said dully, "Go sit down Ms. Thomas."
"Sorry, everyone…" Sherrice said, walking back to her seat.
"It's ok, you tried." Kari said.
"Class…" the teacher paused, "Ms. Thomas really proved herself today, you should all learn from her."
"So does that mean…" Sherrice started to say.
"Yep." The teacher smiled, "You got it right. No final exam."
The class cheered.
"All right settle down, just because you don't have it, that doesn't mean other classes don't so you can do whatever just keep it quiet." The teacher said and walked out the room.
"So Sherrice, what's up?" Kari said.
"Nothing, just tired." She said.
"Well, take a nap. You deserve it." Kari smiled.
"Thank you." Sherrice said, and fell asleep.
"That was quick…" Kari laughed.
About three hours later, (Trust me, Sherrice can sleep longer than this) the bell rang for lunch and Kari tried to wake up Sherrice.
"God, you sleep like a rock, never mind." Kari said and walked to the cafeteria.
"Huh? What? Where is everyone?" Sherrice woke up and looked around the room.
"Not again…" She sighed and walked out the classroom.
She walked down the hallway and sharply turned right, colliding straight into a boy.
"Ouch! That hurt Sherrice." The boy said, holding his chest. The boy was wearing a blue suit-like outfit and had brown hair with brown eyes.
"Sorry Rykun…" Sherrice sorrowfully said.
"It's ok, so how have you been today? Kari told me that you were sleeping and I was coming to get you." Rykun smiled.
"God, he's cute…" Sherrice blushed.
"Hello? Helloooo?" Rykun said, waving his hands in her face.
"Huh? Oh, I'm ok now." Sherrice blushed, looking at the ground.
"Good." Rykun smiled and gave her a hug.
"He's hugging me…" Her whole face turned red.
"Come on, I will pay for your lunch today." He smiled.
"O-ok… Thank you…" Sherrice said.
They both walked down the hall, into the cafeteria.
"Ok, Sherrice what do you want to eat?" Rykun asked.
"Pizza." She said, pointing to the Pizza Hut stand.
"You and me both, let's go!" Rykun laughed and grabbed her hand as they both ran in line.
"This has got to be the best day in my life." Sherrice blushed.
At that exact moment, a group of people at a table watched the whole thing:
"Aww, they look so cute together." Kari smiled.
"He should be with me and not that freak who can't even get to school on time." A girl furiously said.
"Stop acting like an ass and get over it! He doesn't like you!" Kari shouted.
The girl slammed her hands on the table and stood up, "What did you call me?"
Kari cooled herself down, "I didn't call you anything, I said stop acting like an ass. Now if I where to call you something, that would be a different story…"
People near-by started to, "Ooooo."
"Cha! I rule!" Kari thought to herself.
"Hey! Sit down!" a teacher shouted. "Sorry, Ms. Moss…" the girl said and sat down.
"We will settle this after school." She said.
"Bring it on…" Kari laughed.
"What's going on here?" Sherrice smiled, carrying a small box of pizza.
"Oh, nothing." Kari said nervously, "So, can I have a slice?"
"Nope." Sherrice said, closing her eyes and turning her head.
"Aww, come on pl…" Kari was interrupted when Sherrice gave her a slice of pizza; "I thought you were serious for a moment."
"I was just kidding." Sherrice smiled, "Hey Millie, you want any?"
"NO!" Millie yelled and ran out the cafeteria.
"Was it something I said?" Sherrice asked, puzzled.
"Nope, she's just mad because Rykun bought you that pizza." Kari smiled and finished eating.
Sherrice was still confused but continued eating her pizza.
----------
The bell had rung for lunch to be over and everyone walked back to class. On the way to class, Sherrice went to her locker to get her I-pod.
"So you finally got one huh. Kinda late, aren't you?" Kari smiled and pulled hers out of her pocket. Kari's was pink while Sherrice's was blue.
"Yeah I know, it took me three whole months of chores and allowance." Sherrice said and put the earpieces in her ear.
"Hey, before you turn it on, let's meet at the park after school ok?" Kari said.
"Ok." Sherrice smiled and both of them walked to the classroom.
She turned on her I-pod and laid her head down on the desk.
"Two more hours until school's out." Sherrice thought.
Kari was listening to her I-pod too, when someone out of the window caught her attention.
"Hey Sherrice." Kari said, tapping her on the shoulder.
Sherrice took out her earphones and turned around, "Yeah?"
"Doesn't that look like Rykun?" Kari said, pointing out of the window.
Sherrice moved closer to the window, "That looks like him but…"
"Well, he is alone so here is your chance." Kari smiled.
"Right!" Sherrice smiled, "Teacher, may I go outside please?"
"Whatever, just don't get caught." the teacher said, wagging his hand from behind the newspaper.
"Thank you." Sherrice said and ran out the classroom to go meet 'Rykun'.
Kari was still looking out the window, "Well he kinda looks like him, but somethings a little off..."
----------
Sherrice ran outside the building and saw him lying down beside a tree, looking at the clouds and holding something in his hand.
"Rykun!" Sherrice shouted happily.
He stood up on the tree, "Have we meet somewhere before?"
As she got closer, she realized that he wasn't the Rykun she knew.
"Oh I'm sorry; I thought you were someone else." She smiled nervously and turned around. "What was Kari thinking? Oh, I'm going to kill her for that!" Sherrice thought and walked away furiously.
Rykun had a puzzled look on his face and grabbed his book, got up from the ground and walked away.
"Kori, where are you?" He thought while looking at the sky.
----------
"That boy was nine years old! Was that some kind of joke?" Sherrice yelled when she walked in the classroom.
"Calm down Ms. Thomas, school isn't over yet." The teacher said, behind his newspaper.
"Sorry…" She said and quickly sat down in her seat; ignoring the laughs from her classmates. She turned to Kari.
"No it wasn't a joke; I thought that was really Rykun." Kari said.
"Oh sorry…" Sherrice said, embarrassed.
"It's ok, besides what a nine year old doing here?"
Sherrice shrugged her shoulders and turned around.
----------
The bell finally rang for summer vacation. Sherrice, Kari, and Rykun walked out of school and down the street together. Rykun pulled out a strange light pink book, and started reading it. Both Kari and Sherrice noticed the book but didn't want to ask him.
"Oh, by the way Sherrice, what nine year old boy?" Rykun asked, pulling the book from his face.
"You heard that?" Sherrice said, and turned red from embarrassment
"Yeah, everyone did." Rykun smiled.
"It was this boy that looked actually like you but was nine." Kari said.
"I see." He said and stopped at an intersection in the sidewalk, "Well this is my turn, I have to meet someone. Bye Sherrice, bye Kari." He waved and walked off.
"Bye Rykun." They both said.
"God, he's cute." Sherrice said.
"So, why don't you tell him?" Kari smiled.
"Because…" Sherrice blushed.
"Whatever, he's not going to wait forever."
Disclaimer: I do not own this sentence of which I am about to say.
Me: Or did he? Stick around more Family Guy coming up.
Sherrice: What?
Rykun: Mike Jones?
Me: Yay! You finally got it right! -gives Rykun a high five-
Kori and Sherrice: -sighs-
Me: I bet your all wondering why I put Rykun as my name. well that simple to answer, you see back in middle school my mom came in the classroom asking where's Rykun but no one knew who she was talking about until she pointed to me. Ever since, everyone calls me Rykun at school.
Sherrice: Next, I go to the park... -sigh-
