"Fuck them" I kept on saying over and over again. Mrs. Raboy, my English teacher; called me over to her desk. "Fuck no." I was thinking in my head as I walked up to her desk. "What's wrong. You seem depressed." She said. "Nothing is wrong. Everything is fine." I snapped. "Nicolette, speak to me. Something's up with you." "Nothing is up! I'm fine!" I said. "Okay. But don't say I didn't try." I quickly walked back to my seat. I loved my English teacher. She was young; maybe in her middle 20s. It always seemed like she listened to us; listened to what we had to say. And it always looked like she knew what we went through. All the problems, the peer presser, the relationships. Everything. Maybe cause she went through the same problems. Who knows. 'Cause sure as hell I don't.
English went by quick. Quicker than usual. Next was Math. Great; Math. My favorite subject! Someone kill me. My Math teacher is an old bag. She's gotta be at least 70. I hate her. She screams to much. Oh and to make Math even more fun John sits next to me. Great, great, great. This day can't get any worse. But Craig is in that class, so maybe I can sit with him. I walked into the class, I looked by my seat, to find John not sitting there. "Oh okay maybe he fell in a well or something" I thought. Well my thoughts were wrong. I turned my head to find John standing right behind me. "Dickhead" I said. "What?" He asked. "You heard me." I quickly said back. I walked by my teacher's desk, and asked her if I can sit next to Craig today. She said yes. "Thank you." I replied and walked by Craig/ "Wow, she was actually nice today." I thought in my head. I went to go sit down. He looked confused. "Why you sitting by me today?" he asked. "There is no way in hell I'm sitting next to that dirtbag." I answered. "Oh okay." I searched through my backpack for my Math notebook. I took it out with a pen. She started writing shit on the board. I didn't pay much attention. I talked to Craig. "What are you doing today?" he asked. "Well, I think I'm going to the gym with Chris, Robert, Ted, Nicole, Victoria, Britt, and Randy. Your welcome to come with us if you want. We're going at 3:30." "Oh thanks, yeah I guess I'll come." "Okay the more the better." I said.
Eventually, Math ended. The bell rang and I went to Biology. Brittany was in this class, and I sat next to her. Maybe I could work things out with her. I walked in and sat in my seat. "Guess what!" she said as I sat down. "What?" I asked. "You know that kid Ted, I was telling you about?" "Yeah..." "He asked me out before!" "Aw, no way!" "Yeah." "Aw, thats cute." I said. "Yep." "Great everyone has a boyfriend and I'm single." "Aw, don't worry. You won't be single for long." "What are you saying?" "Uh, nothing. We're still going to the gym at 3:30 right?" "Yeah...." "Okay. Just checking." "Um okay?" I said. "Oh and we're chill right?" she asked. "Yeah we're all good." I said and laughed. "Okay." she laughed. It bothered me. Did she have something planned for me? Well she better not. I'll shoot her. I kinda paid attention, but what Brittany said was running through my mind. When the bell rang we got our stuff and walked down the hall and into the lunchroom.
We met up with Nicole, Chris, Craig, Victoria, Ted, and Randy. I don't know where John was, but whatever. I didn't care. We had our normal lunch. Ted was nice. I can see how Brittany liked him. Well they're going out now, so it really doesn't matter. When the bell rang, Nicole was in my next class, which was Religion. So we got our stuff and headed down the hallway together. "What do you think of Ted?" I asked. "He's really nice. I can see how Britt liked him. He's perfect for her. It's like they were meant to be." she said and laughed. "Yeah I feel the same way." I said and laughed back. We went to Religion and that went by quickly. Then Gym was next and after Gym, there was AP English, and after that, school's over.
When school ended, I took the bus with the usual group. Everyone came over my house and got ready. We left at 3:30; and took the train to the gym. When we got to the gym, there was a kid waiting outside, he looked like he was looking for someone. He was so hot. Blue eyes and an amazingly beautiful smile. "Hey Ted! Why am I here?" He said. I could tell this kid was like me. Slow; dumb. I laughed to myself. They all turned to me. "This is why your here." Britt pushed my back next to him. "Huh whats going on?" I said. "Yeah what's up?" The kid said. "Cody Nicolette; Nicolette Cody." Ted said. "Have fun." they all walked into the gym and left us standing outside. "What's going on?" I asked. "I think they hooked us up." Cody said. "You guessed right." Brittany said from the door. Ted grabbed her arm and pulled her away.
We started talking. Which seemed like forever. He was so nice. I could tell I liked him. We both were flirting with each other. It's very rare for me to say that a guy is flirting with me. But holy shit he was making it so damn obvious a fucking baby could tell. I guess we talked for 3 hours because when I looked at my clock it was 6 and everyone was coming out. "Come on love birds! Let's get a move on!" I heard Randy say. "Fuck you Randy." I said. "Nah." he said back. "Seriously. Let's go." Robert said. We exchanged numbers, he kissed me on the cheek and we all left. I tried to keep quiet on the way home but Brittany and Ted kept on saying that he loves me. Yeah he probably did. But so did I. Something's bound to happen.
