RING RING RING!!!
"SHUT UP ALARM!"
Today is my first day as a sophomore. I have to admit I'm pretty nervous. I mean there are gonna be new people entering the school and I'm not even sure if my friends will talk to me.
I gathered all my stuff and bolted out the door to catch the bus. BEEP BEEP!
"Just in time, I didn't miss it." I softly said to myself.
As I got on the bus there were very familiar faces. Nothing new I guess.
"Hey kid, there's assigned seating on this bus to keep everyone from moving around and cause a scene." The bus driver said.
I looked at the paper for my seat and sat right next to this girl, Mila. I've heard of her and seen her but I've never talked to her. I heard that Mila was a nice person and she's dating someone. When I heard that I felt very single I have to admit.
During the whole ride we didn't really talk, it was just a simple hi then silence.
When we arrived I went looking for my locker because it was the only logical thing while waiting for class to start.
"Hey Ryn!" A voice called.
I turn back.
"Amelia!" I responded.
"God you've grown quite a lot during summer break, haven't you Ryn?"
"I'm only 5'2 Amelia, nothing big"
"WHY ARE Y'ALL SO TALL I'M ONLY 4'11!"
"But anyways Ryn, I'll catch you later, I'm gonna go to my class, cya!"
Why the fuck is Amelia going to class with 20 minutes to spare? Oh well. I walked around for fun around campus on my phone. All of a sudden.
CRASH!
"MILA ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?" I said
"Yeah I'm good."
"Here lemme help you up."
As I helped Mila up we made eye contact for a short moment. I felt something I never felt before, it was... Different. A good different.
"Thanks Ryn"
"You're welcome!"
As Mila walked away I thought to myself. "What was that feeling?"
I went to class and had that on my mind all day.
"OI RYN PAY ATTENTION!"
"Sorry Mr, I zoned out."
"Man excuses, detention."
Well shit. Kinda expected it. As school ended I brought myself to detention.
"Mila!? What are you doing in detention?"
"Oh hey Ryn, I was late."
"Dang." I look at Mila. Her brown hair and light brown eyes are very plesent, and very... Cute. What am I thinking!? I'm straight! Or am I?
-Present time 5:30 pm after detention-
Mila and I are walking out of detention. We were just talking during detention really. Well it just started raining. That's fantastic. I put on my jacket and looked at Mila on my right. She looks cold and very soaked.
"Mila you good?"
"I'm alright."
I was hesitant to give her my jacket. I took it off and put it around Mila.
"Thanks, but what about you Ryn?"
"It's okay. My ride's here anyways, I'll see you tomorrow Mila."
"Uhm, alrighty bye Ryn!"
