Recap……
"So what does this spot look like anyway?" I turned to him and moved to the side
"See for your self."
Dmitri's P.O.V
Now I could see why she was so excited to show me this "spot" of hers. In her mind it sounded like any other place you come by on a bike trail but it was really was a lot more. It was grassy clearing with a stream marking where it ended; it was completely engulfed by trees and looking up all the branches tied together keeping any rain out, so the place was dry. In a way, it seemed like…mom's favorite spot.
I started to walk around to get a better look when I noticed Gabrielle sitting in front of a tree looking to me to her notebook and me again.
"What are you doing?" I watched her jump.
"Who's doing what?" she was shuffling towards her bag to get the notebook put away. It didn't matter what she said I already knew she was drawing something if only she would think what she was drawing.
"You, you're doing something and I want to know what." I arched my eyebrow in amusement as she took of sprinting for bag. Wasn't she paying attention when I told her I was faster then her?
I came up behind her and snatched the book out her hand. - the look on her face was priceless it was something between shock, fear and confusion- I opened the notebook to the page she had her finger in. I was surprised to find a picture, well half a- no the start f what was going to be a picture of me standing by the stream that came through the meadow.
"It's not that bad is it?" I look at Gabrielle her thoughts clearly said she didn't think she was a very good artist.
"This is really good." I didn't want her to discourage her self when she was good.
"Really? Most of my drawings of people never seem to come out right."
"Well this one is good you should finish." I handed her the picture.
"I'd love to but I can't if your not standing where you were."
"Okay, tell you what." I started heading for my bike. "After school today we'll come back so you can finish sketching." "What am I doing I barely know her but I'm trying to make her happy?"
"Um….. wow that would be great thanks Dmitri." I watched as a smile burst across her face at the thought getting a chance to finish her art- let alone a chance to get to know me better- but she quickly banished the thought. I guess she was sure I wouldn't talk to her after today.
"Come on we have to go know or we'll be late, and look the suns out." I pointed to the sky as I picked up by bike.
"That's the first time I've seen it since I got here." She made it sound like the sun never shined or at least like it had changed since she'd last seen it.
I waited for her back passed the bush we'd came through, she came out squinting at the sun but she looked relieved to see it. I got my bike and she did the same hoisting her backpack on her shoulder. I heard her notice that I had my backpack when she'd never seen me get it. Observant I'll that in mind.
"So you do you even know what home room you have?" She opened her mouth then closed it.
"Really I have no idea. Actually I was hoping you could help me with that." I laughed to myself and shook my head at the silly girl.
"So, you'll help me right?"
"It's not that hard just go to the front office. And that's the building were in front of."
Gabrielle's P.O.V.
I turned to see we'd stopped in front of what he was calling the main office -which apparently was shared with the high schoolers- but other than that the building on the right was completely ours.
"Oh, that makes it easier." I got of my bike and started to open my mouth. "Um, where's the-"
"The bike rack is over here." I turned to my left and saw Dmitri putting his bike on the rack.
"Okay, that was weird." I started to put my bike in the rack.
"What was weird?" I looked at him disbelief, what did he mean that was weird?
"I mean its weird how you seem to always know what I'm going to say before I say it." I took notice that no one put chains on there bikes, so there was no need to put one on mine.
"Did you ever think your not the first new student we've gotten who asked these questions?" Damn, ok he's got me there. That makes more sense then me going paranoid.
"Okay, you got me there but you make it sound like you know these answers of the top of your head. I mean what are you the new student directory or something?"
"No, but it's not that hard to figure out what you'll need to know."
I sighed in defeat and walked into the main office, only to find an overly friendly secretary.
"Oh, hello there Dmitri making a new friend I see?" I guess that means me. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a lot of friends, in which case might not work out to well……… for me.
(A/N: I know I could go look this up out the book, but I really didn't feel like it so, excuse the secretary's name.)
"Good morning Mrs. Meets, my, um friend here is new she needs her schedule."
"Oh, she's the new student for Illinois right?"
"It's Illinois, the s is silent, and yes." I hope she never takes a trip to Chicago; people don't take very kindly when you pronounce the name of the state they live in wrong.
I watched the secretary move around her desk while she put together what I was guessing was my schedule. I wonder how Dmitri knows her so well? Then again this town is so small everyone probably already knows me and I haven't even spoken to the yet.
"Okay, all done here's your schedule. And Dmitri, tell your father I say hi." I opened the door looking at Dmitri with what was maybe the weirdest face I've ever had.
"Will do, Mrs. Meets." I watched him walk out and start towards our building, then stop and look at me.
"Are you coming?"
"Huh? Oh, right coming." I ran to catch up with him.
"So, are you really going to make me use this or you going to be nice and tell me what class to go to?" I watched the look on his face change to a scowl and the back to the pleased face he'd had on. He took the piece of paper from me and scanned over it.
"Funny your class line up looks a lot like mine; in fact the only difference is your elective." Elective……I wonder?
"Speaking of which, what elective are you taking?" I turned my head so I could see his face.
"I'm not; you don't have to take one here so I use it as break time."
"Oh, that's different." I turned my head and notice that most of the other students were staring, well most of the girls any way. They didn't look to happy either, in fact the look damn right angry. I decided I would ignore them- the best one could with the feeling of eyeballs burning holes into your head- and go about my way.
When we went into the school building it was a perfectly normal school, stairs, cafeteria, class rooms, and horrible smelling bathrooms, yep this was just about the same as my last school just the bathrooms were better.
"Well, I guess this where we part." I turned to look at Dmitri, who for once looked at me like I was stupid look.
"No, because we have the same home room, remember?"
"Oh."
So we walked to class in silence. The teacher forced humiliation upon by making me introduce my self to the class and tell them three things about my self which were the following: 1: my name 2: my birth day is march 23 and 3: I like draw. Short, sweet, and to the point. The rest of the day was normal, Dmitri walked me to my classes, the other girls in the hallway glared them selves into being blind every time they saw me. So yeah minus the last part it was normal, up until my period before lunch.
"Ok, so the art room is on the second floor room 205." I walked to the stairs and stopped cold. The second floor, as in stairs…that I have to walk down, By now some people had notice my stop and were probably thinking I was too stupid to understand how to walk down stairs. However, the real problem wasn't the stairs it was more me, and my clumsiness. I could here people murmuring behind me, that was it I had to do it or risk ruining a perfect first day. I placed one foot on the steps and suddenly felt my confidence coming back, and now I understood what the stupid blue train in that book meant when he said I think I can.
"OK, I can do this all I have to is watch my feet." I placed another foot on the stairs. "Hey! I can do!" I began walking at a reasonable pace forgetting to watch my step. "All right three down about 27 more to go, but this is easy I could've done this at my last school with out falling!" I felt a smile begin to find its way onto my face. Then just as quickly as it came, it left. I felt all sense of my balance leave me as the ground jerked out from under me. Everything passed by in a blur; I saw my feet in the air where they shouldn't have been. My books in a blur of color flew past my head, one making sure not to forget hitting it for me being such a knucklehead. I felt my self flip and found my self staring at the ceiling for a split second before my eyes closed ready for impact. I waited and after a second, I realized my free fall had stopped; I opened my eyes and looked up at what had stopped the world from spinning.
There he was looking down at me as if I was his child he just kept from being hit by a car. I couldn't help but stare back at him, how could I not? His gaze just seemed to hold me there and I liked it this was a great moment, for about ten seconds till someone opened there big mouth.
"Wow, hey Gabrielle are you ok? Did she go into hysteria?" And that's when I realized there had been tons of witnesses to my fall, but the most important part seemed to be the fact that I'd been caught bridal style. But of course my personal group of glarers noticed this too and now were back to glare mumbling about how the new girl thought she could just toss her self down a flight of stairs and win Dmitri just like that. I ignore them and carefully climbed out of Dmitri's arms and started to reach down for my books only to fall backwards. I felt arms catch me again but I didn't need to see but I would have like to what was going on because everything started going black. I heard Dmitri's voice and that was it. I remember him calling: "Gabrielle? Gabrielle wake up.
