Disclaimer: None of the characters in the Twilight series belong to me. They belong to Stephanie Meyer. That means that I only own Chrys. Also, I do not own Siegel High School.
"Hey, could I get your name?" Jacob asked.
"It's Crystal." Chrys replied. "But everyone seems to want to call me Chrys. Most of the time I forget what my real name is and tell people it's just Chrys."
"Crystal is a pretty name." Jacob smiled. "I don't see why you don't just go by that."
"A lot of people do call me Crystal, but those people aren't my friends or they're teachers." Chrys smiled. "My sister was the first person to call me Chrys and then the name slowly started to work its way into the minds of all my friends and family like some kind of disease."
"I see." Jacob mumbled. "Well, it was nice meeting you."
Chrys nodded quickly before she turned her attention to her stuff. She began to gather it, with help from Jacob, and shove it into her backpack and binder. Two of her best friends were walking by at that moment and she knew they would notice her, like always, and call out to her. She counted down from five silently and, right after she said one, Stephanie called out to her.
"Hey, Chrys!" Jessie yelled. "The bell is about to ring. Come on."
"Impressive." Jacob grinned as he helped Chrys stand up.
"Thanks." She answered to his compliment and help. "I was nice meeting you, Jacob. I hope we see each other again."
"We have a few classes together, you know." Jacob informed her. "I guess you didn't notice. I figured you would at least recognize me from one of those classes, but I just moved here about a week ago and I suppose that's asking a bit too much."
"Now that I think about it, I do remember seeing your face." Chrys said slowly. "Well, I really do need to get going. Those two can get a bit impatient, as most people do. I'll see you later."
Jacob nodded and Chrys walked to the edge of the walkway and hopped off. She landed on her feet and her knees bent under her to keep her from falling. She quickly stood back up and ran over to Jessie and Stephanie, who were looking between her and Jacob, who was still standing in the same place he had been before. Chrys knew the two girls were about to start questioning her left and right so she took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
"Go on." She sighed. "Get it over with, but I'm not obligated to answer all of your questions."
A/N: Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you liked it. Also, I'm having trouble right now so this might not be continued for quite some time. And, You might not see Stephanie and Jessie all that often.
