Loving Sadie

chapter two

The smell of fresh air hits me as I close the front door. The sky is still not fully awake. Grey clouds storm the sky.

My backpack feels heavy, pushing my shoulders down. It's cold here in Boston , the only thing I have on are some handy me down sweaters that are too thin to protect me from the cold , and jeans.

Today was going to be the same as the others: get to school, go to class, have lunch, more classes, go home ,do some more stargazing , and repeat.

My life was not interesting, it's not important.

No one would care if I lived or died. I am just there. I am a no one

At some point in my walk I end up in an alley where everything seems dark and scary. I look at it, contemplating taking this way. I would get to school earlier.

As I walk to the ally, something stops me. A voice, a cold finger touches my back. I look back ,Death stares me down he whispers in my ear " turn around"

And i do

By the time I got to school, I was already late. The hallways are empty, everyone in their classes already. I make it to fist period and sit in back like always do and put my head down closing my eyes. Hoping for sleep to come

Just as I was about to find sleep , I heard the door open. The teacher speak stars to speak

" I would like to introduce a new student to the class"

"Meet Jase"

I don't bother to look up , I keep my head down and close my eyes. I hear the scraping of a chair a couple rows away.

It was near the end of the class , I was bored out of my mind as always. I glanced at the clock , 10 more minutes of this class. I fiddled with my pen, picked at my fingers, scribbled in my notebook. For what felt like forever , yet hardly a minute had passed.

I dropped my head on my desk , turning to the side, and there you were. With your pretty brown hair, and pretty brown eyes.

All of a sudden, 10 minutes didn't seem half bad if I got to stare at the cute boy who sat 2 rows away from me.
