The Mystery Boy

The Meeting

I got out of bed and remembered that today was school. It was my third year at Clear Waters High School. I was psyched to go to school, not to study, but to meet my best friends, Valery, Daphne and Daniel. So I walked to the bathroom and washed my face with freezing cold water so my eyes would open.

I then took my turquoise towel and dabbed it on my soaking wet face. I walked to my closet and opened it. I thought to myself " I have to look good since it is the first day of school. I don't want to look like a dork or a diva!" So I took out my floral leggings and a white, button downed shirt. The shoes were the easiest part since I only had 5 pairs of them. I had my full black converse, my neon pink heels, my silver flats, my black, covered toed ballerina shoes and my red wedges that were one inch tall.

So I took no time to choose and picked up my black ballerina shoes since mom was calling for breakfast. My mom was not that tall. She was short with long, dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. For breakfast was as usual, blueberry pancakes with chocolate syrup, my favorite! I gobbled it up so I wouldn't be late. "Bye mom!" I said while getting my bag and packing my lunch. "Bye sweetheart!" she said giving me a huge kiss. "Have fun on the first day of school!" she shouted. "I'll try, "I shouted back. Right when I came out my house, bus 4 arrived in front of my house. I ran to the automatic door and it opened for me. "How you doing' Kathy?" said Ms. Willow, the bus driver. "Just fine." I replied. I went to my usual seat, the second last row, next to the window.

When I found my seat, I found someone else in my seat. He had green eyes and strawberry blonde hair. "Excuse me.' I told him. "This is my seat." "Sorry." he replied. He got up for me and I sat in my usual seat. Then I asked him "Why don't you sit next to me?" He said "Why not?" He sat down next me with his black bag on his lap. "So...what is your name?" I asked. "My name is Drake Knowles." He replied softly. "What's yours?" he asked me. "My name is Katherine Smith." I felt kind of awkward talk to someone I've met for only 10 minutes. We were sitting next to each awkwardly till we reached school. When I got out of the bus, I asked Drake "What grade are you in?" "I am in grade 10, you?" "I'm in 10 too." "See you around!" he said going to his first class. "Bye." I replied. I think we might become good friends.
