I look at the clock waiting for algebra to end. I stare at HIM for a second.HE is staring at the teacher and HE looks at me, but I am ahead of the game and start staring back at the clock. 5...4.....3.....2.....1.... Ring. I am the first to leave. I see Anna and say, "Hello! How class?"
"Boring... One kid literally fell asleep," she yawned. I laugh and feel a random burst of happiness.
"Last class. I think we can survive.It is only band," I chirp. She sighs. We go to our semi close lockers and grab my clarinet and she grabs her flute.

"Now flutes, B C C C and clarinets C D D D. Get it?" Mr. Smith yells.
I stare down at my paper and ask him, " I thought we were starting at 21,"
"We are starting at measuring 5," Mr. Smith says with a little of an eye roll.
After band I got to my locker and pick up my backpack.

I rode my bike to my friends house, Josh's. He knows I am coming over so I let myself in. His younger sister hears me come in, since she is only 10, she has a frying pan in her hand. When she sees me she drops the frying pan and mumbles, " Josh is in his room," she looks a little disapointed that she didn't get to wack a burgelar.
" Thanks," I say already walking up the staircase. When I walk into his room it looks like he is in the middle of killing Knucklerot from World of Warcraft. He notices me but I decide not to interupt. After he kills Knucklerot, I say," Don't you have homework?"
" Only a paper in in English and it is due on Friday," he grumbles still looking at his computer.
I roll my eyes and ask, "Where is Anna?"
"At the book store, getting some John Green book or something," Josh mumbles barely even looking up from his laptop.
"Get off, I want to play," I whine.
"No," He says. I just push him off his chair and log off from his character and account and log on to mine. My favorite character is Erbian. She is a level 69, rogue female (duh). Anyways I play for a little while and Josh just watches, he knows I could easily beat him in a duel, so I just ignore him.
After a while, Anna burst into the room,"I got "The Fault in Our Stars," by John Green," Anna says with a book held to her chest, she is a big book reader, but I am too. I sometimes think she would rather have books as friends than have us, but what does it matter?

After I leave, I ride my bike home. I am just about to get into my house when I hear a wolf-whistle. I just roll my eyes and expect it is some other girl being whistled at. "Hey chick!" I hear someone say. I decide to turn around and scowl but I stop scowling and notice the super hot guy standing in front of me.
"Excuse, you," I say getting kind of annoyed at this guy. I don't know why but when I think a guy is cute, I turn into Miss Sassyfrassy.
" What?" the guy asks almost looking guilty. Jerk.
"Wolf-whistling is incredibly stupid and 'Hey chick' is downgrading," I say not exactly knowing what is coming out of my mouth.
" So? You're cute; can't I say that," He says not really caring.
"If you're a gentleman you can," I smirk and he looks confused or annoyed....or both.
Then something unexpected happens. I am sweeped off my feet, literally.
" What do you think you're doing, mister?" I ask cocking an eyebrow.
"Being a gentleman," he says smirking.
I start to hyperventilate. Am I getting kidnapped? "Put me down, creep," I grit my teeth. He just starts walking down my street. Since I still have my backpack, I grab my pocket knife and I hold it his wrist.
He smiles and smirks," Do you even know how to use that," Then I look at the pocket knife. I forgot to take the blade out. Way to make a suspensful moment make someone laugh.Leave it to me of course.
I decide just to struggle out of his arms. His grip gets tighter. Then I try scratching and biting him. He
