"Nobody is ever innocent... especially not Henry, he totally meant to push Paul. Paul deserved it though!" I gossip to Allie as we walk down the rusty old brown lockers. All I could see was brown lockers and silver, red, and blue locks. We just came to school earlier so we could talk to Coach.
As I got to Mr.Smiths English class all I could see we're the different cliques. The football jocks to the pretty popular girls. While the guys joke around the girls spread there oh so juicy gossip.
By the way, I'm Madison Allen. I'm 15 and I am dating a guy named David Davis... Silly huh? My mom is a widow. My dad died in a major car accident when I was 5 months old, my mom said she almost let me go with my dad that day when he was on his way to grandmas house. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers. The brothers are identical twins.
Anyway, in Mr.Smiths class you either pass or fail, and every morning there is the same thing on the announcements, what's for lunch, the date, the next event, and what clubs we should join. Usually my friend Stephanie joins me but it's weird, she hasn't been here in a long time.
Then the scariest most unreal feelings hit as the announcements said " as we all loved her let's remember Stephanie" That was the day my heart sank and it stayed that way, and soon it would sink even deeper.
Everybody but me looked fine walking out of that class. Tears were running down my face. All I could think was "what happened?"
