Starting
Over 29
“Good morning class! How is
everyone this fine evening?” My English said as she got
settled at her neatly organized desk. She was young, and pretty.
She had to be about 25. She had short, reddish-brown hair with what
looked like brown eyes, was tall and thin. She looked at a sheet of
paper then up at everyone. Probably taking attendance. She then
stopped.
“Ah, I see we have
a new student. You must be” She stopped and looked down at
the sheet searching for my name. “Emma.
Correct?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, welcome.
I’m Mrs. Reynolds.” She looked up and smiled. She
started talking again but I kind of just blocked her out. I looked
over to Drew. He was already looking at me. I opened up my notebook
and took out my pen so I could write him a note. But before I could
write anything, he took the pen from my hand and slid my notebook
over to him.
So… about
that date…
I read it and smiled a
little. I took the pen from him.
Hey… I
said I’d think about it. Don’t push it.
:P
Mrs. Reynolds walked by
Drew and I and tapped on the table, probably to tell us to pay
attention. I closed my notebook and threw it back in my bag. From
1st period through the end of 5th period was
a blur. Before I knew it, it was time for lunch. I met up with
Sadie outside of my bio classroom and we walked to my
locker.
“So, how’s
your day goin so far Em?” Sadie said as I opened my locker
and threw three textbooks I got earlier in there and put up a
little poster thing I got out of a magazine that was of Zac Efron
shirtless. He’s so hot.
“Pretty good. That
Drew kid isn’t so bad.” I said as I closed my
locker.
“Oh yeah?
He’s really hot. Go for it.” She nudged my shoulder and
winked. “Just watch out for Tiffany. She’ll try and
steal him from you like she’s been trying to get with him
since last year. It’s pathetic. Haha.” We laughed then
started for the cafeteria.
