i went to my first class. It was boring as usual. Everyone heard what happened to Justin's car. No one knew what happened.

Well I did. After that class was over. I saw Tyler. He was taking pictures for yearbook. He seemed like a good person. He was taunted by jocks. He was tripped by rude jock. He laughed and walked away.

I held my hand out.

" that guy is a real dick bag "Says jaime

" is dick bag even a word" Says Tyler, chuckling

" it could be " says jaime

" what pictures are you taking for year book?" Says jaime

" of anything " Says Tyler

" well, the yearbook probably won't have bad pictures this year then. Pun intended " Says jaime

Okay. Maybe I wasn't the funniest person ever. But it was a small conversation starter.

" aw, two nerds caught up with each other " says monty

" how's your mom Montgomery again " Says jaime

He sent me a fake smile and he flipped me off.

" Monty's such a dick " says Tyler

" yea, but whatcha gonna do right?" Says jaime

" i um better get to my next class. I'll um see you later?" Says jaime

" yea "says Tyler, smiling at jaime

I went walking to my other class. Then tony started to walk beside me. I hadn't seen him since he talked to clay. To me, clay didn't seem to be trustworthy.

" hey stranger, haven't seen around in awhile " Says jaime

" been um busy " Says tony

" I see you were talking to Tyler?" Says tony

" so? " says jaime

" just be careful " Says tony

I stopped walking for a while and I turned to him. He stopped and looked at me.

" what are you implying? " Says jaime

" jay, I'm implying that everyone isn't who they say they are. And There's something about him I don't trust " says tony

" oh I get it now. You don't trust him bc hes not in your crowd of people. While your buddy buddy with Jensen who is literally hanging out with someone who made my sisters life a living hell " Says jaime

" jay that's not what I meant "says tony

" that's exactly what you meant " says jaime

" you take one look at someone and think you know them. But you have no fucking clue tony. Let's just get real tony. The only person you care about is clay Jensen who is getting everyone of us in trouble and he's the real person you can't trust " Says jaime

I noticed in the corner of my eye clay walking towards to talk to tony.

" looky, here comes your buddy now . Talk to me later or don't . I don't care " says jaime

I walked to my next class. After my next class. I walked in the hallway. Valerie caught up with me.

" rabbit, i found something it's hu-" says valerie

" baker, can I talk to you in my office for a minute " Says mr porter

I looked at mr porter. Mr porter was the grief counselor. I avoided him right after my sister died. But you know you can't avoid someone forever.
