Truth be told

The bell rang and Mrs. Jensen dismisses us for lunch. Thank gosh it's over, yay for lunch!

I walk into the cafeteria grabbing a tray of food and stumbling over to the tables. Stopping at the front of the cafeteria I look around at all the different groups. There were nerdy looking kids, kids that looked like vampires, kids that looked like art freaks, and of course the popular kids. Where do I sit? Where do I fit in? Two excellent questions that I had no idea how to answer. Maybe I could eat in the bathroom for today. No that would be so~ gross. Maybe by the trash. Not that ether. I didn't feel like getting garbage thrown on me. For awhile I stood thinking where I should go, and debating wether or not to even sit at a table, when two hands grabbed me from behind.

"Hey girly. What you doing over here?" Lauren screeches in my ear.

"Hi. I'm trying to figure out where to sit."

"Haha. Why don't out come over and eat with me and my friends."

" Ok cool. Thanks,"I say fallowing her to a table in the far corner, with 3 other kids at it.

I stop standing in front of 3 kids that look kind of a afraid of me.

"Guys this is Angelica. She's my friend," Lauren says smiling at them saying friend slowly.

"Um hi." I say as I sit down.

Lauren sits next to me, talking to the other kids about some test she did. I made some eye contact with Lauren's friends, but they didn't look very long before looking back at the table.

After I ate my lunch I said goodbye to Lauren and her friends. When I got out of the cafeteria and halfway down a familiar voice stopped me. I turned around to see William.

"Hey girl. What you up to?" He smirks at me.

"Um I'm. Um."

I didn't even have time to answer before William pressed his ruby red lips against mine. I stood there shocked for a moment before slapping him.

"What the hell was that?" I screeched with my hands on my hips.

"Oh my god. Oh my god. I'm so sorry I don't know what came over me. I guess I. I guess I like you." he stutters frantically trying to apologize.

I froze. On my first day of a new school I have a boy tell me he likes me. A smile crept onto my face. He said he likes me. I turned around with an ear to ear smile. With a slight blush I turned the corner.

"He likes me!" I thought aloud before entering my next class.
