​That was my schedule. 6 hours of torture, pain and hell. I saw the way the other kids looked at me. Their stares, whispers, and sly remarks. I knew this would happen. But somehow I had to find a way to avoid it and not listen. At Leopard Time, I went down to the Soccer Field with Skie and Jill to watch the boys lacrosse team practice. This was the first year Lowbe Middle School had a lacrosse team, and I was kind of excited about it. I even thought about trying out. I guess I can't do that anymore, but at least I can watch! There were a few new guys on the team I have never seen, which is unusual because my town is really small and I've been at this school since I was 4, but these three new kids? That was unusual, even for this school.

"Jill who are they?" I asked.

"Oh that's Daniel, Sammy, and Peter. They're new this year. I think they're brothers too!" answered Jill.

"OHHH perfect for us!!!" said Skie.

"isn't it weird?"I asked.​"having new kids? And not just one, but three! In our town? At our school!"

"yeah I guess." replied Jill and Skie at the same time.

"Dana I think Peter's checking you out!!!!" exclaimed Jill.

​Peter was cute, from what I could see of him. Jill told me he was in our Art, Chemistry, and French class, but I hadn't noticed him until now. I would go talk to him someday. But not today, not tomorrow, not until I can walk again. Which might be never.
