Hidden

Walking & Talking

Mr.Mundanes class had just ended and as I started to walk out Mr.Mundane called me to his desk. I stopped, fearing a lecture of how I've been acting strange lately. He spoke," Marcella, a new kid named Jordan is going to be here tomorrow, would you mind showing him around?" I didn't want to, but I knew if I said no, I would have gotten a lecture for my recent decrease in generosity and focus. So I agreed, " Sure thing Mr.Mundane, I would love to." After my talk I went home and got all my stuff ready for school so I could sleep in.

I woke up, got ready for school, and grabbed a piece of toast I had made earlier, grabbed my keys and drove straight to hell. As I drove I thought of the new kid, what great news some one else to laugh at me for being different, for listening to bands totally opposite of one direction. I pulled up in the parkinglot grabbed my bag and walked to homeroom Mr. Mundane was sitting in his over priced chair, he was talking to a tall boy someone I didn't recognize, Mr. Mundane caught me standing at the door way and called me to over his desk. He spoke with an up beat voice ,"Mr. Gray this is Marcella she will be your tour guide today I chose her because you have the same schedule by coincidence." He looked at me his eyes an enchanting blue I had never seen before. His mouth opened and he spoke with a smooth deep voice," hi my name is Jordan.". "Marcella" I said to stunned to speak a full sentence. The bell rang we had to get across the building, walk across everyone what if he questions what everyone was looking at, why they are laughing? As I lead him out of the classroom I looked at him saw him shaking " nervous" he looked at me and sort of smiled," that obvious" we both laughed. After one joke the ice was melting quickly. He was shy but confidant as he walked high and tall talking slow and quietly. As we arrived in Mrs.arvydas' art class he sat next to me. It was nice, nice having someone sit next to me by choice and laugh with them something I haven't been able to do for a while. I think for once in the last few months I had a friend. At least for the moment I did.
