Chapter seven: Snow Part I


It had been several weeks since Jimmy, Petey, and Juliet went to the carnival. Since those several weeks, Petey had been distant and more of a loner. He would burst out at random moments; especially when they talked about Jimmy. Petey would get so flustered, and very upset that he wouldn't talk to her for weeks at a time.

"I just don't get it…" Juliet said to Jimmy, who was sitting next to her eating some deli sandwiches they got in town. Juliet violently sucked on her juice box and screamed.

"I'm his friend; I should know what's going on! I mean look at me! I'm going crazy here!" she cried out and threw her empty juice box across the hallway. She put her head back against the lockers and took deep breaths. Some children passed by giving Juliet weird glances and some teachers as well, but they gave disapproving stares and carried on their merry way.

"Maybe it's something dealing with his home life." He said, shrugging his shoulders.

"You don't even care do you Jimmy Hopkins?" she said, spitting out his last name like venom.

"Whoa, whoa, when was I the enemy here?" Jimmy said holding up his hands in defense.

"No one was ever an enemy!" Juliet cried out, her eyes were holding back the tears, "he's my friend, and I want him to be happy. I want to see him happy." She wiped her eyes feeling liquid starting to come out. Jimmy patted her back in a friendly matter. Juliet smiled at the comfort he was trying to give, but it was soon over as Jimmy walked away waving his hands.

"See ya' later. I'm goin' to see Christy." Juliet smiled and she quietly walked back to the dorm. She didn't feel like English and P.E today. She felt sick to her stomach. As she walked outside, snowflakes started falling down on her head. Juliet looked at the sky and lightly smiled.

"I wish my mom was here with me." As she walked back to her dorm, slowly, she saw Petey scamper off to English.

"Can you believe that Seth Kolbe has a daughter?" Christy whispered to Jimmy. She was his Chemistry partner, lets just say she wasn't the brightest crayon in the coloring box. Jimmy just sat and simply nodded, but was wondering at the same time: Juliet was related to that snake?

"Yeah, and I heard she's as bad as her father." She added, smiling towards Jimmy. He only nodded again, oh how wrong you are Christy. He thought as he watched Dr. Watts write out peoples names on the board.

Jonathan Hopkins, he wanted to crack that old man's head.


(A/N: Short and sweet: there will be a Snow Part II and Snow Part III. Thanks and review, please, review.)
