The school day for whatever reason felt like it was taking an eternity to finish,, I got up from last period as the bell rung and headed to towards the exit. I'd been texting Finn in between periods. I still couldn't believe they had actually gotten into a fight. I tried to get Finn to tell me the exact details but he wouldn't. He just replied with " it doesn't matter" but something told me it did.

suddenly I was knocked out of my thoughts , which caused me to stumble over. I looked up to see an unfamiliar face, he was a tan kid, dark shoulder length hair, with dark almond eyes . He was wearing baggy jeans , a Hawaiian t shirt and some converses. I don't think I'd ever seen him before. He had a skateboard in one hand and the other stretched out infront of me.

" oh shit you good?" He asked helping me off the floor

" yeah I'm fine , it was my fault I should  watch where I'm going ". I said

" you applied at the Jamba Juice", he said

" yeah I just don't remember seeing you, I don't think I've ever seen you". I responded

" I'm like a grade above you , plus we don't have any classes together, I work at jamba actually I saw you apply there ". He explained referring to the job application I filled out at the mall

" thanks I'd actually really appreciate that"I said

" well I'll see you later..... " he trailed off waiting for me to finish

" Mariah ". I Informed

" Mariah I'll see you around , the names Robin by the way ". He said 

" see you around Robin". I said

As I continued on my path to the school exit , which hopefully wouldn't be thwarted any further. I noticed someone standing in-front of the doors I paused in my tracks, we made eye contact and earlier events started to replay in my head. I looked down at my wrists and saw the purple bruising . I pulled my sleeve down. I decided that I was going to keep that from finn, I didn't need him getting expelled on my account. I continued walking till I was past him and in the school parking lot. I looked around then I saw him waving at me from the distance,
