Kendall
History seemed to drag on and on, I sat next to a really quiet guy named Luke and Charles sat behind me and kept whispering to me, playing with my hair and doing other things like that. The walls seemed like they were getting closer as the time passed till finally the bell rang and I jumped up and got out of there.
When I was in the hall I looked around till I saw purple hair and smiled, I made eye contact with Michael he made a face and began walking away faster, his friend Ashton looked at him weird then at me and he walked over "sorry Michael isn't always the nicest person" he laughed out I just nodded and looked down at my schedule to hid my disappointed expression. "Film? I have that next too, it's down stairs, follow me" we walked and talked about school, at one point he started talking about Michael, and how he wasn't a very social type person.
We turned to a small almost hidden hallway behind a trophy case that I wouldn't have noticed if Ashton didn't point it out and at the end of the hall there was the film room, there were tons of computers and tech gadgets, there weren't many people but for some reason it made me shy back even farther, Ashton seemed to notice and he kind of laughed "oh come on, no one's gonna bite, unless we get too hungry" he said then made a silly lion-ish face. The teacher introduced me to the class and had me name some movies, TV shows, and actors I like then we all began discussing them and by the end I felt pretty comfortable but the bell rang which meant I had to go back to feeling shy and uncomfortable, Ashton grabbed my schedule "sorry can't help you much with that class I think it's on the other side of the school" he said then walked away.
I walked to the other side and looked around but didn't see the language classes so I went upstairs and looked around, I found the language hall just as the bell rang I walked down the hall till I found French III and I knocked on the door the teacher opened it and smiled then asked my name and how I was, in French "très bien j'appelle Kendall" I said with a smile back then I'm the corner of my eyes I saw purple. The teacher instructed me to sit next to Michael and I did then said hi to him, he just glanced at me then groaned, my smile faded, did I do something?
Through class I glanced at him but he just looked at the board, I know he could see me but he was ignoring me, "did I do something to make you mad?" I whispered to him my curiosity taking over.
"No" he huffed out annoyed but I ignored it
"Then why are you being like this?" I asked
"Acting like what? I don't even know you and you don't know me." He said turning to me finally, but I wish he hadn't cause I know I was bright red and looked like I had been kicked.
"Oh, sorry" I said even softer and turned away.
"I can't believe I didn't realize you would be a Charles girl" he said under his breath.
When the bell finally rang I slowly packed my stuff, a hand reached for my schedule, "you have lunch now" Michael said making my head snap up "you can sit with me" I grinned and followed him to the hall "I don't usually sit in the cafeteria, I go to a rec room to eat. Its quieter there" I nodded
"Sounds good, I like quiet"
The room was fairly hidden, in a hallway like the film one but on the other side of the school, you go in the 3rd door on the left it's a small room, then there is a door in the back and there is the rec room, it's a large room, most of the roof is glass, the right wall came up to my chest then it was a window all the rest of the way to the ceiling, the wall stuck out enough to sit on with a pillar every few feet or so, so I went over there with my lunch and set it down then hopped up leaning my back against a pillar.
I looked around the rest of the room, there were guitars, a drum set, some individual drums, a big piano, a smaller electric piano, mics and other music stuff in one corner. There was some art supplies by the window a few feet away, there was a space with dance gear and a big mirror, and there was a ton of various stuff in here. Outside the window there was a kind of forest, it was really pretty.
My thoughts were interrupted by Michael's deep voice "nice huh? That's why I like it here" he said, I glanced at him and nodded then went back to staring at the trees suddenly there was soft strumming and I looked at Michael who now had a guitar and was very focused on playing it. I got my food out and began eating it while I listened to him play, my eye lids began getting heavy so I closed them and didn't even notice that he stopped playing till he grabbed me and yelled boo. I yelped in surprise, making him burst out laughing, I squinted my eyes at him and he laughed even harder like everyone I've ever glared at because I "look like a kitten trying to roar" according to all my friends.
"Stop laughing at me! You scared me!" I yelled at him, but I couldn't help but start laughing too.
"Sorry I couldn't resist it, you looked too peaceful" he said still laughing.
"Isn't that a reason to leave me be!" I said hitting his arm as hard as I could, making him laugh harder for some reason "Stop laughing at me! Why are you even laughing I just hit you?!"
"Because you're so tiny and weak, it's adorable!"
I crossed my arms and huffed, eventually he stopped laughing and sat next to me "so tell me about yourself Miss America." He said with curiosity
"Well I'm Kendall, I'm from Texas, I like acting, singing and that's about it, I'm a fairly boring person" I said lamely
"Oh come on there has to be more to you."
"Not really." There was a long pause "what did you mean by saying I was a Charles girl?" I asked quietly
"Your dating Charles, or you WILL be." He said
"What do you mean? I don't like Charles like that. And I'm NOT dating him!" I said
"Well he likes you, he wants you, and he always gets who, and what he wants"
"We'll not me!" I said
"Ok" he said obviously not believing me
"Really. I don't like him! Why would I date him? I'm bran new, why would I pick the first guy I see when I walk in school, I'm not that kind of girl!" I said very solidly
Michael smiled "I like that. weighing your options." he said
"No it's not like that, i don't need anyone, but if I find someone, I find someone, I'm not looking for them"
"Even better" he said with a smile then the bell rang.
