Jayla: Behind The Closed Doors

Chapter 5: A Joke...?

I slammed the bathroom stall closed and sat there with the note in my hand.

Somebody has to be playing a joke on me.

Jayla isn't real.

She never was.

I kept on staring at the paper trying to think of a logical way this could happen.

A person who isn't real can't just send you notes.

Before I knew it the bell had rung, I missed my photography class.

I exited from the stall and walked over to my next period.

Lunch.

I somehow arrived there looking around at the huge cafeteria.

I got in line and waited to get my meal.

As I finally made it to the front I looked at all of the selections.

There were, pizza, burgers, fries, salads, and spaghetti. I reached over to grab a salad and a drink, I payed for my meal but had one question lingering in my head.

Where am I going to sit?

I stood in the middle of the cafeteria looking dumbfounded.

"Hey." Someone called out to me.

I turned around to find the life saver named Cleo.

"Nevaha, where were you? One minute you were at your locker, the next you were gone." She told me as she had her lunch in her hand.

"Oh, sorry I felt sick and went to the restroom." I lied.

"That's okay. Since it's your first day why don't you sit with me and my friends." She said motioning me to come her way.

I walked behind her, while she was waving to some people around us. At last we made it at a round table and we both sat down.

There were three girls sitting at the table. A girl with dark red hair, a noes ring, and a lot of dark lipstick on she also had a tatoo on the side of her shoulder near her neck that said, ' Nothing Can Change Me.' The second girl had blond hair with blue highlights, a mouth ring, and a tattoo on her arm of a dolphin swimming into a wave. The last girl had normal brown hair, but, she also had a piercings on her lip, noes, and a billion on her ears.

The last girl kind of scared me a little.

"Hey guys," Cleo greeted.

"Whose the girl," the red head said while bitting into her fries.

"Oh, right. Guys meet Nevaha."

I shyly smiled and gave a small wave.

The blue, blond haired girl spoke first.

"Hi there, my name is, Gia." She said sweetly.

Next was the brown scary looking one.

"Mine is Stevie," she said also, while shaking my hand.

The red head was last.

"The name's Iris." That's all she said and went right back to eating her fries.

"Iris is the one in your photography class." Cleo said while drinking her soda.

"Oh." I simply said.

"So, Nevada was it-"

"Actually its Nevaha." I said, cutting Iris off.

"Yeah, whatever. What made you want to come to this school." She said while looking at me dead in the eyes.
