"Late again, are we Miss Batchelder?" sighed the principal.
"Well, what do you think? Actually, that's rhetorical question, so don't answer that. And I'm late because, well, I was showing the new kids around," Water said smiling sweetly.
"Nice try Miss Batchelder, but that's the worst excuse you have ever come up with, here just take this tardy slip and as your punishment show the new kids where there classes are," said the principal, "and no complaints." Water groaned (and a little too loudly at that) and the principal looked please.
"As for you all," said the principal, "take these timetables, Water will show you where your first classes are and someone else from your homeroom will show you where the rest of your classes are. Now get out of my office, before I give you all detention," We all rushed out of his office immediately. In my opinion, I didn't think detention was a good thing.
As soon as we were out of the office, we handed Water our timetables. She looked at them for about a second mumbling to herself, then handed them back to us.
"Ok, Ariel first were gonna drop you off, since you're the closest, k?" Ariel nodded and Water motioned for us to follow her.
Nudge: Soooo…Water….
Water: Soooo…Krystal…
Nudge: You know I really hate awkward silences, don't you?
Water: Sure
Nudge: So, what's your favorite color?
Water: Blue, duh! Oh, Ariel, here's your class, good luck!
*Angel walks into the classroom*
Nudge: Favorite drink?
Water: *laughs* I don't know, you tell me! Oh, look Gazzy that's your class, have fun!
Nudge: Hmmmm…Favorite-
Water: Oh look Nudge, there's your class in you go!
As soon as Nudge is gone, Water turns to me.
"Does she-"
"Yes, she always talks this much, get used to it," I said. Water just nods and walks off. After about two minutes, we arrive at Fang and Iggy's classroom. Fang and Iggy walk in.
"Your classroom is the one right next to it, see it?"
I nod.
"Love it?"
"Nah."
"Ok, well good luck!"
You know, I thought that Water was joking about first days being horrible. I realize now, that she was telling the truth.
Because this definitely sucked.
At every single class they made me stand up and say my name and something special about myself. I don't think Anne would be very happy if I said I had wings. So I just stuck to the usual crap, I've ate 23 oranges in one day, or I once swallowed 3 marbles, or I've been to 36 different countries. And, believe or not, those morons believed me! Ex:
Me: I once swallowed 3 marbles.
Moron #1: Wow!
Moron #2: Really?
Moron #3: Amazing!
Total Moron: I wish I could do that!
There are some really idiotic people in this world.
Well, the classes went by and I have seemed to survive, and thank god they remembered my favorite period: lunch! I rushed into the lunchroom not caring if I didn't look…well you know…ladylike! Some random guy in my class named Sam told me that 9th and 8th grade all had lunch together so I would be seeing Fang and Iggy. Nudge was in 6th grade, Gazzy was in 3rd grade, and Angel was in 1st.
I wonder how they were doing. Well I can't to tell Fang and Iggy about my great day at school! (Note the sarcasm). While I was thinking about this a bumped right into a girl. Hard. Oh my gosh, I forgot that these people were weak, I hopped she was ok!
"Are you-"I stopped, finally noticing who I bumped into.
"Water?"
"That's me, Max right?"
"Ya….uhhh…did you just fall?"
"Doesn't seem like it. But you did bump into me pretty hard, never knew you were that strong!" I was shocked, but also relieved. How come Water didn't fall? That normal "bump" would have sent a kid flying (ha-ha, get it flying, because, never mind) but at least she didn't fall, or else kids would get suspicious.
"Earth to Max, are you in there?" Water said
"Huh? Oh yeah," I mumbled.
"Come on let's go get lunch I am sta-ar-ving!" Water said. I smiled.
"Ok," I said.
We walked into the lunchroom, where I smelled…heaven! I could see all that food, and my mouth began to water.
"Eeeewwww, your drooling Max," Water laughed, "Come on let's get lunch quickly before the floor is good enough to get mopped." We laughed and she led me to the lunch line. I took nearly everything there was. I got a pizza, two cheeseburgers, a chicken sandwich, a bowl of pasta, 3 cups of french-fries, and 2 water bottles. Hmmm…I wonder what Water would think of me? I turned around to face to see she had nearly as much food as me! When she saw me staring she smiled.
"Wow, you eat as much as me! Actually I think a little more! That's cool; I've never met anybody that can eat nearly as much as me!" I smiled.
"Me neither, well besides my brother and sisters," I said.
"Awww lucky! At least you don't have a pesky brother that makes fun of you because of how much you eat," Water said laughing.
"You have a brother? What's his name?" (Why do I care? Well I don't I just felt like asking, jeez!) I found out we had already sat at a table.
"Oh, his names A-,"
"Hey Water!" said some random girl, "oh, who's your new friend?" she turned to me, "my name's Jenifer Joy, J.J. for short, what's yours?" she asked.
"Max," I said.
"Oh, wow cool name, I wish I had that name, I mean Jenifer Joy, what were my parents thinking?" We all laughed. J.J. sat down and started to eat lunch with us, until she noticed my tray.
"Another girl like Water," she chuckled.
She was right, I thought, another girl like me! No, impossible, it was idiotic for me to think of it. Nevermind.
After a couple of minutes I realized that lunch was over, and I didn't bother to see Fang and Iggy. Oh well, I guess I'll see them after school. Maybe they can figure out what's up with this whole Water thing.
Ok, this Sunday, Aug. 22nd, I'm going back to America, Ya I was in Egypt, so I might update a little later than expected!
But I might be able to fit in another chapter before I leave if I get enough reviews, because:
Reviews are like juice,
They give me a boost!
