Brook's POV
The guy across from me with he coolest hair and is clearly the cooler friend out of the three boys looks at me. I look back and he says "may I?"I hand my pencil over along with my notepad. He writes: I was never much of a talker either, I know a lot of sign language but not technically fluent and Morse code. I gotchu.
I smile and I sign to him saying 'I'm sure you're fluent.' Hawk signs back saying 'technically not. I haven't taken the test, so technically not.' I smile and I shrug signing 'I never took the test' and he says "what a rebel." I shrug and he chuckles making me smile.
I sign 'the test doesn't mean anything like do you want a diploma or something?' I roll my eyes as we smile and he laughs. He says "there are people that are like oh you have to take the test or whatever" and I sign 'Karen's' making him laugh.
Hawk says "Miguel, I like him he's funny." Miguel says "what are you guys even talking about?" I shake my head, writing: don't worry about it and Miguel says "I see how it is" rolling his eyes making me smile and he chuckles.
The teacher makes eye contact with me and he waves me over. I put up a finger signaling 'I'll be back in a second' to the boys at my table. I go over with my notepad and a pencil then I sit down at her desk with him. The teacher says "so, in my class I base a lot of my grades on participation. So, I've been thinking about this because you seem great and I really want to accommodate you. I have a few ideas of my own but do you have any of your own?"
I write: I don't really have any cause I've never had to deal with participation grades like this before. They used to be just busy work type things at my other school for participation points.
My history teacher says "I was thinking I could just have you write notes. Not much, just enough to show you paid attention during my lecture would be great. I wont tell anyone if you just write down three bullet points cause your GPA is very impressive and I'm very to have you in class. I just have to be able to give you a fair chance compared to everyone else."
I smile and I thank him, going back to my seat.
A couple hours go by and we go to our other classes then we all go to lunch. I see Hawk and I sign to him: bathroom. Be right back. I go to the bathroom just to have a cool down before going to the people filled lunch room and I see the boy just standing there against the wall. He seems to be in a bit of a panic and I slowly walk over to him. I tap his shoulder and then I panic cause I didn't bring my notepad or a pen.
I furrow my eyebrows at him as he looks into my eyes. I offer my hand, getting an idea, to this boy that looks like he's about to cry or scream and punch a wall. He takes my hand and I gently turn his hand over, writing: r u ok? On his palm just for him to feel it and see it.
I look into his stained glass eyes, breath catching in my throat, and he says "I'm ok." I furrow my eyebrows and he says "I'm not gonna dump my drama on you. This is a great first impression on my behalf." He chuckles and I smile shaking my head, waving my hand dismissively. The boy looks at me for a second then says "I'm gonna worry about it. I'm not usually good at these things."
I raise my eyebrows at him and he says "alright, fine" chuckling. He smiles just looking away and he says "the new iPhone upgrade is kind of shit, ya know?" I furrow my eyebrows at him and he says "cause it doesn't come with your phone number, would you be able to fix that for me?"
He hands me his phone and I just blush, putting my number in. I then go to his notes app and I write: YOU BETTER TEXT ME BACK :< I show it to him and he chuckles saying "I will, I will." I raise an eyebrow at him and I go back to the lunch room.
I sit with Hawk and Miguel and a few girls. Hawk says "what took you so long? Did you fall in?" I roll my eyes and I sign to him saying: I was making a friend, dumb ass. Hawk says "feisty, alright. You do you." I smile at him and the girl sitting next to him says "hey! I'm Moon!" I write saying: I'm Brooks, you are so pretty. She says "thank you! I got this new moisturizer. Been glowing ever since."
Hawk says "you said the glowing was all me." Moon says "yeah, you bought it for me." That makes the whole table laugh and she says "I'm just kidding" then shakes her head at me.
The other girl chuckles saying "can we steal this cutie for a day this weekend while you guys go on your weird boys retreat?" I write: a weird boys retreat? What do they do? Suck each other off or? I show it to the girl next to me and she laughs and I fold it, handing it to Moon and she laughs saying "probably."
This boy from earlier walks in confidently as everyone watches him and sits with the kid that was annoying me this morning.
Ok, I'm gonna have to ask cause I'm confused now. Miguel says "I would stay away from him too." I nod, just avoiding an argument cause that boy that I met is just smiles and worrying if he's doing things right.
