Jared and Kim

Chapter 1

I woke up to the sound of Untouched by the Veronicas on my alarm clock. I became hyperaware of everything the second I heard the violins. I jumped out of my bed and did a dance my best friend and I made up. Then my top 5 favorite song in the entire world came on. When Halo ended I looked at the clock. The little red digits are saying it is 8:30am.

"Crap!" I went running to my dresser to get my plain white tee that I bought last week, and some plain old vintage jeans. I checked myself in the mirror I didn't look half bad, but that is excluding my hair that looked like it should be in the 70's.
I sprint to the bathroom and grab a brush. I harshly start to brush out all the knots in my hair. I look at my hair and just left it out.
I ran out of my house not even bothering with breakfast. I look at my watch. "Shit" 8:40 and classes start at 9:05.

I wonder if I can run those 12 blocks to school. No you can't run those 12 blocks to school, and not be late. You idiot!

I honestly hate that part of my head. I ignored it and just started to run.

2 more blocks! OMG I can't believe you're not going to be late, and I'm almost never wrong!!!!

I'm going to make it; I'm going to make it!

What was that?

It was the bell you idiot.

"Crap!" I'm right! Yet again!

I'm just going to walk no point being all sweaty when I get to class.

X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X

I stepped in the office loving that it had a bit of cold air in it. The person at the front office was named Mrs. Simon. She looked like she was about in her late 40's early 50's. Mrs. S looked at me like she's never ever seen me before. But who does? People just see me in the hallways and forget about me a second later. I've gotten used to it though.

She handed me the dreadful pink slip, and gave me a detention. A detention! You got to be joking. Ugh! Worst day ever!

I was in front of the door about to open it, and panic rose to the pit of my stomach.

What do I say? Just give her the god damn slip! I wish I had control over this body!Okay jeez.

Should I call her Miss. Hicks or Miss. H? I don't want to sound too formal but not too casual, she'll think I do it on a regular basis. Ugh so confused. Just call her Miss. Hick. That's what you always call her anyway. Okay

I reached for the door. Why the hell I'm I doing this in slow motion? I don't know Miss. Goodie-2-shoes

I opened the door and stepped in. Miss. H looked at me with a questioning look on her face. Get over all the faces, I kept chanting to myself.

"Hi, Miss. H"

"Hello Kimberly."

"Do you have a late slip?"

"Umm, yeah. Right here." I handed the pink slip. She just looks at it for a minute deep in thought.

"I hope this never happens again Kimberly, I'll let it pass since this is your first time and never been away yet this year." Her facial expressions were changing like when you flip through the channels on TV. First there was a questioning look, then a disappointed look, then a look saying this better not happen again, and last was a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.

Man she was mad even if she kept an even voice.

I went to my seat in the back off this small and stuffy room. Which I coincidently sit, next to my best friend Anna. Well really my only friend and I was hers.

She looked at me with wide eyes. She looked like a deer caught in head lights. I sat down beside her.

"Hi" I could still feel the eyes of the other students burning in the back of my head.

She recovered and said "hi?" how that heck can that be a question? She looked like she wasn't sure what to say to me. But if it was her in my shoes I would be the same way.

I opened my text book and just read the pages that the white board told us to read.

We were yet again learning about the Quileute trib. Our ancestors.

We've been learning about this since we learned how to walk. Were still learning this and were in grade 11, you've got to be kidding me.

It went along the lines of that we are descended from a wolfs. Pssh! Where the heck do they get this crap from? I don't know. Some movie I think this is so fake. Only a mental person would believe this stuff.

I felt a nudge I looked down and there was a note. I opened it and put it on the text book so it looks like I'm reading it.

What the hell Kim. What happened? I was worried. I thought you got sick our something or even DIED!!!

Wow I knew she was a little dramatic but wow.

Wow, Anna!! Melodramatic much. I'm fine just got distracted. So I missed my bus and had to walk to school, no run.

Feeling proud that I didn't spill my guts about why I was late. So I went back to reading the text.

I felt a nudge and so I looked to where it came from. Another note. Great.

What happened the normal Kim would never let that happen. Are you sure you're not sick. Something is wrong. You got to tell me!!! Plzzz or I'll get my lil bro Ty to bug you forever.

Crap!! I'm going to have to tell her. Shit.

Well Anna, nothing is wrong with me you got that. You have to promise that you won't tell anybody our laugh. It's pretty embarrassing…

My alarm clock went off. And my fav song Untouched came on. And you know how I'am. So I started to dance then my other favorite songs came on. I lost track of time. So I missed the bus and had to run to school.

I'm pretty sure I'm getting a bruise, because of her so I'm just going to kick her to get her attention.

I kicked her and she said "yelp" every single head on the class room turned to us. I started to blush and looked down. After about 5 minutes or so all the eyes went back to their books.

Anna started to rub her leg and started to read.

A second later she's laughing. Crap! And there goes every body's head up again. Great.

Suddenly the bell rang. I never knew I would ever say this or think this but I was saved from the bell. Wow flash back to the 90's much.

Spanish. Ew. I'm so failing this class.

X*X*X*X*X*X

3rd period of the day. I absolutely love this class. It's not that I'm a total nerd and love math. I actually suck at it but he's in my class.
