Hey Spencer, its your mother. You didn't call like you said you would, but that's okay. Just try to call me as soon as you can. I hope you are adjusting well and having a nice time with your father. Oh and have a nice first day, love you sweetie.
End of messages.
I sigh and put my phone down on my bed and groggily get up to get ready. I hear rain hitting softly against my window as I walked to the bathroom.
It took me about fifteen minutes in total to get ready. I steadily walked down the stairs to find Arthur cooking something at the stove.
"Hey you hungry?" He turns around and gives me a warm smile as I went to sit at our kitchen table.
"Somewhat. Still trying to wake up a bit more." I say, yawning and stretching.
"Well just try to eat, maybe it will help." He brings the pan over to the sink counter and puts the food on a small plate. "Here." He says, handing me the plate.
I look down seeing scrambled eggs and sausage. My stomach growled a bit so I began to dig in to satisfy it.
"Are you excited about your first say Spence?" I wipe my mouth with a napkin and washed down the food with orange juice to answer.
"Yeah I guess. I mean its just school, nothing too exciting." I take a couple more bites at my breakfast.
"Well yeah, but at least youll meet new people besides hanging around me." I smirk a little, nodding my head in agreement.
"That is very true. I think the idea of school is sounding like a luxurious daily option." Arthur splashes some water from the sink at me.
"Haha hey now. I have to at least look a bit decent for school now." I say, wiping the droplets from my face.
"Its not like it will make a difference." My dad says, while handing me a towel." its raining a bit out there. Be careful while driving. The roads can easily get slick with black ice."
I stand up and put my jacket on. That's one thing that was different about California. We would have rain, just not the freezing cold wind that Washington acquired.
"No problem dad." I say smiling. I head out towards the front of the house, grabbing my backpack that laid right on the stairs.
Just as I was about to head through the door, my dad's hand pulls on my arm a bit.
"Make the best out of your day Spence. Show them what California girls are all about." I smile and look down.
"Yeah I guess I can try. Im just an average one out of the bunch though dad. Don't expect too much." I turn around and give him a hug.
The drive to the school wasn't too bad. A lot of places had small shops on either side of the road. Probably small family owned stores. The roads were wet though. I had to use my windshield wipers.
By the time I got to the school, cars were filing in. Most students were just hanging around the parked cars, killing time. I turned the truck into an empty spot and eased right in. As I got out, I felt like all eyes were on me. I crossed my arms and just kept walking straight, letting my eyes wander around.
They landed on a really nice black Camaro, which was parked next to a black Hummer.
Well aren't they just living in wealth.
As I walked into the school, people flooded the hallways immediately. I pulled my schedule out from my back pocket and began to read it.
English-R101
I sighed and continued to look around for the class.
"Well you just look completely lost, am I right?" I turn around to see an oriental girl in front of me.
"Did my completely frustrated look at my paper give it away?" The girl smiles and laughs a bit.
"Just a little. Nice to meet you, Im Lily." She extends her hand out and I shake it.
"Likewise, Im Spencer Carlin."
"Oh Chief Carlin's daughter?" I gave her a surprised look.
"Yeah…how did you know?" I wouldn't think people already knew me that fast.
"Well considering there is only one Carlin residence here, I'd figure I take a good guess that you're related to him." I shrug but nod.
"Not a bad guess." I remembered I was looking for my class, so my eyes wandered quickly around the
"May I?" Lily asks, gesturing towards the paper in my hands. Without a pause, I give her the paper.
"Ah I know where this is, just follow me." She continues to walk and I follow her through the crowd of students trying to get by. We finally make it to the Room 101.
"Alright Spencer, heres where I leave, but ill see you at lunch." She hands me my schedule back.
"Oh, we have lunch together?" She turns around just as she was walking away.
"Yep, first lunch." And with that she left.
I walked into the classroom, trying to find an empty seat. Eventually I find one and quickly sat down. My eyes scanned around the room, studying peoples faces. Everyone seemed to be caught up talking to either each other or just working on something of their own.
But my eyes stopped to a couple, assuming that they are by the way the girl had her arm around the guys arm, and him leaning intently into her. They sat across to my right in front of me. What got me was how regardless of their skin tone, it was cream pale, yet flawless at the same time. The girl had a mix of dark and light brown hair with loose waves in it, as if she had an exotic texture to it. The guy on the other hand was pretty muscular built with jet black hair.
Eventually the bell rung and class began, which I could honestly care less.
Riiiiing.
Finally. I say to myself. I grab all my belongings and get up to leave to my next class.
Gym.
I actually enjoyed being active, and no not that kind of active for you little pervs out there, and staying fit for the most part. Back in Los Angeles I was on our schools Gymnast club, setting myself for a ranking in first place. It was something I was proud of.
As I came out from the locker room from changing, I spotted a group of about fifteen kids surrounding a long placemat. Curious, I walked over to see what they were looking at.
When I reached over to a side near the end of the group by the edge of the mat, two legs almost hit me in the face but luckily I moved my head quick enough from getting kicked.
I put my focus back to the mat and the person who just finished their routine, which turned out to be a girl.
"Alright, I just performed a double front handspring, side somersault, and a back handspring to end it. Anyone care to challenge me?" The light brown hair brunette girl crossed her arms and creating a smirk when she saw no one stepped up. Honestly, she looked like a straight up bitch. I decided to put her back in her place. I took off my shoes and stepped onto the mat.
"Ill challenge you." I say, walking to the beginning of the mat where she first started.
"Im sorry to say though," I start off mentioning as I began to do my take off posture, "the moves you performed, I learned in my first year as a six year-old. Let me show you what I learned in my last year."
With that I did my running start. My first move was a simple cartwheel. It then transformed into three back handsprings, then two straight layout flips, a side somersault with me ending it with four front handsprings.
Once I stuck my landing, everyones jaws dropped. I lightly walked back, grinning on the corner of my mouth. My challenger just stood in her spot, arms still crossed with an annoyance displayed on her face.
"Well, well, now that was quite a show with a really good view." I turn around and see a dark brunette straight haired girl walking towards me.
"Thanks." I say back trying to catch my breathing, putting my hands on my knees. She puts a hand on my back rubbing it a bit. She obviously was trying to pull something on me.
"Hey now, space your breathing." I stand up straight and give her a tight smile.
"Again. Thanks." With that I simply walk away. But that doesn't stop her, because she follows me.
I walk over to a pulled out bleacher and take a seat, as the chick sits next to me, too closely.
"Nice to meet you though, Im Kelly." She gives me a wink and shoots her hand forward for a handshake.
"Spencer." I cautiously take her hand and give it a small tug. She openly laughs at the effort.
"Come on now, I don't bite, unless youre into that kind of stuff." Again, she winks. I try my best to just keep to myself and not say anything.
"Not at all." I just look straight forward at the gym, not bothering to give her any contact.
Riiiiiiing.
Saved by the bell.
I get up quickly as I head over to the locker room to change and scurry over to lunch. Unfortunately Kelly was trailing my ass.
Once I got changed, I left the lockers right away, with Kelly on my side.
"So hey where are you going to now?" I really didn't want to answer that but I had no choice.
"Just lunch." A couple of people walking towards us bump our arms and shoulders to their own destination, but I was too determined to get Kelly away from me to even care.
"What a coincidence, me too!" She pulls out a five dollar bill and gives me another wink.
Oh my god, her and that fucking wink of hers. I need to get away from her, I say to myself as we reach the cafeteria.
"So hey Kelly," I say getting really close to her, looking intently in her eyes, "how about you get yourself some lunch and ill find a table for us?" her mouth dropped a little and she just gave me a small nod.
"But of course." And she quickly walks away. Do I need to even say what she did before she went to the lunch lines?
Good.
I scanned the room looking for a table that was empty yet crowded so I could easily hide from Kelly. Finally I spot a round table that was left unoccupied.
"Hey Spencer!" My body freezes up, thinking how in the world Kelly got her lunch and found me so quickly.
I turn around but I become relieved when I see it was Lily.
"Hey, whats up?" I sit down and take out my lunch from my book bag.
"Not much. I just came in here and I was surprised I found you so quickly." She sets her tray of food on the table. "May I?" I nod my head.
"Yeah, go for it." She sits down next to me
"Hey Lily." I look up to see a tall light ebony guy in front of us with a lunch bag in his hand.
"Oh hey Clay. Oh and this is Spencer." He looks over to me and a widen smile appears on his face.
Not again.
My stomach churns as I give him a weak smile.
Review? :)
