Hello everyone! Ok so I gave in and re-wrote the chapter on my mom's laptop. I felt really bad about it being such a long wait and I had hours of spare time before I went to see harry potter haha. Ok anyways I'm not too proud of this chapter, it's kind of boring but that's what filler chapters are. So please read the authors note at the end of the chapter its EXTREAMLYY IMPORTANT!
Zack's point of view
I was having a very peaceful sleep when I was woken up by the most annoying buzzing sound. I turned over to see that it was my alarm clock and it was…7:30 am! Uhh! I got up and looked over to find Travis still fast asleep. I learned that Travis sleeps like a rock; almost no noise can wake this guy up. So I just threw a pillow at him.
"Uh man! What was that for?" Travis said, sounding about as pleased as I was being up this early.
"I know man but we have to get ready for class" I said as I walked into the bathroom to take a shower.
After about 20 minutes we were both ready so we went down to the cafeteria to get some breakfast and just brought it back to the room. After I was done eating I started putting my books and stuff in my bag.
"Alright well I'm out, I'll see you in class" I said to Travis, grabbing my bag.
"Where are you going? Class doesn't start until 8:15 we still have 15 minutes" he asked looking a little confused.
"Yeah I know but I was going to meet Lily, she seemed kind of nervous about today"
"Oh alright I'll go meet up with Woody and Cody, see you in class"
I walked down the hallway until I got to Lily's room and knocked on the door. I didn't hear anything while I was standing there so I started to turn around, wondering if she had already left. Suddenly the door opened. I turned around to see Lily standing in the doorway. She was dressed simple today; a white t-shirt with a purple tank top underneath, jeans, black converse sneakers and her hair was in loose curls that went down her back. This is the way she usually has it.
"Oh hey Zack, what are you doing here?" She asked.
"Well I was here to see you but if you don't want me here I can always leave" I said pretending and started to walk away.
"No, no, no" She laughed grabbing me by the hand and pulling me back to her. "Now the real reason you're here?"
"You seemed kind of nervous about today so I thought I would meet you before class"
"Aw well that was nice of you" She smiled
"I have my moments" I said as she laughed.
"Here come in for just a second, I just have to get my books and then we can go" She said pulling me into her room.
I sat down on her bed as she started putting books and paper into her bag. Then I noticed that she looking around, as if she was looking for something important.
"Looking for something?" I asked.
"Yeah, my cell phone"
I looked around the room, and then my eyes landed on her bed side table where I saw it. I walked over to it and picked it up.
"Here it is" I said handing it to her.
"Thanks, alright ready to go?" She smiled
"Let's go" I replied taking her hand in mine as we started walking down the hall.
"So are to still nervous about today?" I asked.
"Yeah a little" She admitted, biting her lip. "I'm getting used to it though; it's just like starting any other new school"
"You move around a lot huh?"
"Yes, but you get used to it, sure you miss friends and things like that but having my dad makes it easier"
She smiled, and then her phone started to ring. She looked at the screen and her face light up. "Oh it's my dad; this will just take a second"
I was about her ask her if she wanted me to go ahead so she could talk more privately but she held onto my hand just as tight as ever and kept walking. So I just walked alone with her, listening to her talk.
"Hey dad…..I'm heading there right now actually…..no its ok I still have 10 minutes or so…..everything's amazing so far, everyone here has been great……that's awesome….alright well I will call you after school or sometime tonight..Ok…yup tag team as always….love you too….bye"
Once she hung up the phone and placed it back in her bag I noticed something strange. Lily wouldn't look me in the eye anymore. Then after a minute of wondering what could be wrong she tilted her head a certain way and I saw the sad expression on her face.
I stopped walking and then she looked up at me, confused. "Hey you ok?"
"What? Yeah I'm fine" She said looking down at the floor.
"Lily, you know that I don't believe that" I took both her hands in my own and tried to catch her eyes. "Come on tell me what's wrong"
"It's nothing Zack, I just mixed emotions about missing my dad and starting school today" She said still looking at the floor.
I lifted her chin up with my finger so that she was looking me straight in the eyes. "Lil, don't worry everything will be fine I promise" I said giving her a light peck on the lips.
"Thank you Zack but I'm just being over dramatic"
"No you're not" I told her leaning against the wall and wrapping my arms around her waist."Everyone's nervous starting a new school, and from what you've told me your dad is the closest person in your life and it's hard to leave them."
"Thanks Zack". She said wrapping her arms around my neck.
"Alright enough of this."Travis yelled. We turned to see Travis, Cody, Bailey and Woody walking towards us.
"Oh leave them alone". Bailey laughed.
"Thank you Bailey!" I said. "Alright let's go"
We walked into the classroom and sat down. Soon after Miss Tutweiller came in.
"Hello everyone, Ok for those of you who don't know me I'm Miss Tutweiller your teacher." She said introducing herself.
"Ok I'm going to start off with attendance." She said holding up a clipboard. "Cody Martin?…check..Zack Martin?…check..Travis Miller?…check..Tiffany Richards?..check…London Tipton?…London? Alright where is London?"
"Bailey you're her roommate, where is she?" Cody asked.
"When I left she said she was getting ready but that was half an hour ago." Bailey said confused.
_______________________ 2 hours later__________________________
"I'm here!!" London said walking into the classroom.
"Nice of you to join us Miss Tipton." Miss Tutweiller said clenching her teeth. "And where were you?"
"What do you mean where was I? I was getting ready. Why? Am I late? "London said very confused.
"Yes your late! 2 hours late!" Miss Tutweiller said getting a little angry.
"But how can that be? It's only 10:15? "London said still confused.
"And class starts at 8:15 London."
"So I have to get up even earlier to get to school by 8:15?!" London said shocked as if it might kill her.
"Ok this isn't going any further than it already has, I can tell." Miss Tutweiller said giving up. "Bailey? Can you make sure London gets to class on time?"
"I will do my best." Bailey replied.
____________________After School__________________
Class had been over for about an hour and we were all hanging out by the smoothie bar.
"Hey, do you guys want to go up to the game room? Travis and I are going to have a pool re-match." Woody asked us.
"No thanks, Bailey and I are going to help Miss Tutweiller with tomorrow's lesson plan." Cody said.
"I might come by later but I have to call daddy to see when he is dropping off Ivana." London said clapping her hands in excitement.
"I'll come." I said
"Me too." Lily answered.
We all went our separate ways, saying we would all meet back for dinner later.
We had been in the game room for 2 hours. Lily and I were playing video games; the score was 4-1 with Lily winning. Woody and Travis had finished their re-match and after an hour they got bored and started watching us play. Right now we were in the middle of our 6th game.
"Ha ha! Oh what is that? 5-1? Oh I believe it is." Lily said teasing me.
"Yeah Zack, she beat you bad!" Travis said.
"Good job Lily." Woody told her.
"Yeah well I let her win." I said.
"Oh ok whatever you say Zack" Lily laughed, elbowing me lightly in the ribs.
"I'm going down to get a smoothie, you guys want anything?" Travis asked.
"No thanks I'm good" Lily said.
"I'm just going to wait until dinner" I told him.
"I'll come with you; I'm not sure what I want." Woody said.
"Alright we'll be back" Travis said as they walked out.
Lily and just sat and talked for awhile until my phone started to vibrate from across the room where I left it.
"Here I'll get it." Lily told me as she got up and walked over to the table my phone was on.
"You got a text from someone named Josh?" Lily told me.
"Oh yeah he texts me all the time, it's nothing important." I told her
"Alright" I she said walking back to me and handing me my phone back before she sat down.
"Thanks, we should probably go meet everyone for dinner now." I said looking at the time.
"Yeah your right."
I got up and she grabbed my hand as we started to walk to the cafeteria.
"So the first day of school wasn't that bad was it?" I asked her.
"No, it was just like you said it would be"
"I hope that's a good thing" I laughed
"Yes, in fact I think it was my best first day ever." She smiled
Ok so there is the chapter, as I said it's not my best but it was a filler chapter. Ok so here is my important question. As I said before I have an idea for this story, but for my idea to be a chapter it has to be later on in the school year. So my question is if you guys would mind if for the next chapter I skipped a couple of months? I you guys don't want me too it's ok but my biggest fear is that they will all be kind of boring. Also if you haven't answered my question about Cody and his future girlfriend please!! Answer it! If you don't know what the question is go look at the ending authors note of chapter 4 and let me know in a review. It's very important that I know what you guys want for this story Thanks again, please review and answer my questions :)
Oh one more thing as I said in my last authors note I'm going to be leaving for vacation on Sunday and won't be back until the 2nd so I will start writing the next chapter sometime after the 2nd since I won't have the computer on vacation. Later guys!
