Chapter 1- What's that smell?

The guy in the pic is Max!! ;)

It is my first day of senior year. I've always hated school and the first day at a different school is no exception. All school is, is another time waster. My name is Jenny it's short for Jennifer but you can't call me Jennifer, I won't answer. I just moved from Kansas to the big state of California.

I left all of my friends to live where I know no one. I'm in foster care and I move a lot. My mom wasn't ready to have a child and she was being ignorant and got pregnant and that's where I come in.

She gave me up for adoption when I was born an I haven't seen her since. I have been in about 7 maybe 8 foster homes because where I don't want to stay, I find a way to get out. This foster house I actually like, I would love to be adopted but you see how that is.

I just started this new school called RidgeWood High and you can tell by the name it's going to be terrible.

First period of the day is advisory and of course I got lost. I walk up to a girl and I said: "Hey I'm new can you show me where room 122 is?" "No! I have better things to do then show new kids around!" Said the girl. I trusted my instinct and decided not to punch her in the face.

She walked away and switched so hard I swore both of her hips broke! I moved on and asked the next person and she had enough sense to tell me where I was going.

Room 122. Before I walked through the door I could tell there weren't a lot of kids, it was maybe 16. I walked through the door and I felt a breeze as I left the hallway. "Hi my name is Jenny, are you Mr. Reich?" I said trying not to pee on myself. "Yes I am, Jenny. You can sit anywhere you want!" Said Mr. Reich.

I sat in the second row, third desk from the left. As you can tell no one else was sitting in that row. I always sit by myself the first few days. I sat there for 15 minutes because that's all the time I had left there and the bell rang. I had no problem finding my 2nd period cause it was just down the hall. Remember that rude girl? Guess who's in my second period. I walk and you already know the brat had to say something. "Ugh!! What is she doing in here?!" Said the girl. I gave her a nasty stare and she gave one back.
The teacher broke the silence. "Hi you must be Jennifer I'm Ms. Kappe. "Hi, it's Jenny. Umm where do you want me to sit?" I said going further into the room. "Sit where ever you like!" I sat in front of Kim and then she started talking to her friend. "Kim keep quiet!! I'm trying to teach my class! Unless you would like to do it?" Kim shut her mouth and rolled her eyes.

Ms. Kappe finished teaching. Kim with her high heel stilettos kicked me in the back! I turned around "Um can you stop kicking my seat some people here are actually trying to learn?" I said and then I turned around. "Please, I stop when I want to!" "You want a piece of me?" I asked in a daring tone, standing up from my seat. "Oh bring it on" she shot daggers at me. Just as my fist was about to connect to her face Ms.Kappe jumped in between us. "That's enough you two detention for interrupting my class both of you!" Oh great getting detention on the first day. Foster
Moms going to love this.

On my way to lunch I decided not to eat and walk around the school and get a feel for it, even if I might not be there for a while still didn't want to be lost. As I turn the corner into the hallway leading to the basement I get this smell filling my nose "What the hell is that" I thought out loud. I was going farther down the hall when I heard a cough and I stopped dead in my tracks. I see a janitors closet and open it to see a guy sitting on the floor smoking what looks like could be weed.

"Who are you?" The boy said, curiosity filling the small room. "My name is Jenny, and you are?" "The names Max" he said getting up off the floor, towering over me.

He was about 6'4 with black hair and light green eyes you could melt into. He was wearing a white tee, black jeans, and combat boots. Your cliche bad boy.
"Just a question, why the hell did you decide to smoke weed in the schools janitors closet!?" I asked thinking this guy was really stupid.
"Well you see Jenny, I had some weed and no where to smoke then I found this very cosy janitors closet and I thought why not?" He said that like it wasn't a big deal.
"You do know that you could get kicked out of school for that and I don't think you want that on the first day of school." I rolled my eyes.
"Well for that to happen cupcake you need to be caught, and I don't have any intention of that happening." Did this guy just call me cupcake? "Whatever" I said starting to walk away.
"Wait!" He started running towards me trying to catch up. "Why haven't I seen you around here cupcake?"

"That's not my name!" I said through gritted teeth. "Whatever, cupcake you still didn't answer my question." Knowing I wasn't going to get anywhere with this name thing I answered his question.

"I'm new here it's my first year in Cali." He made an 'O' shape with his mouth and kept quiet as we walked down the hallway. A comfortable silence filled the air. "Ms.Rogers, Mr.Johnson!" I looked up to see the principle coming towards us. "What do we do!?" I asked Max with worry filling my face. "Run!"
