It's always the old people...

So as soon as I walk into Spanish class some of the other pretty girls wave me over to sit with them. Finally I'm being appreciated!

I sit down with them and smile, these girls can't see fake if it slapped them across the face.

"Heey guys, how were your summers?" I say sitting down, the thing I like about Bowie is I can be mean to him, girls are too sensitive.

Once one of them starts talking they all start talking, god I can't stand them, I don't give a shit you went to France, so did I, you're not special.

I scan the room for any new cute boys in our class, none. They're either annoying, nerdy, ugly, stupid, or smelly. The only kind of okay guy is Caleb, but I dated him last year for like a day, it was absolute shit. 

This year is going to be so boring, I need someone new I can talk shit about other people to since Bowie's trying to be nicer ever since he got a boyfriend. Speaking of Bowie's boyfriend he taps me on the shoulder. Class hasn't started yet and I'm already sick of it.

"Hey Julia, hey julia, hey julia, hey julia" He keeps tapping my shoulder giggling with his friend Wayne, now I have hockey player germs on me.

"What?!" I snap back, some of the girls at my table look at me confused, I forgot I'm trying to be fake nicer.

"Uhhhhhhh... I don't know." Wayne thinks this is hilarious.

"Hahaha, Rajie you totally forgot to ask her!!! What he's trying to ask is if we can try to get people to come to a snow owls game on your TikTok account!!" Wayne says his eyes wide. I can't stand him. 

Obviously I'm not going to do it. I turn around and scoff at them.

"That's not nice Julia, you should at least try to promote them since you're their friend" One of the girls say this. Friend? Me? Their  friend? I can't believe she would think that. I snap.

"Excuse me I am not  their friend." It feels like all of the class looks at me. The bell has to ring, can't class just start, I love attention but not like this! Wayne and Raj do that stupid sad puppy thing.

"B-b-but I thought we were friends" Wayne says, I'm sure he doesn't actually think we are. Right? I have to watch what I say, I have to be nice.

"No it's not you Wayne, it's just you have Raj! And I have...my own people!" I say darting my eyes around nervously, there is no way I'm letting other people see me nervous. This sucks but I have to maintain a reputation.

Wayne sighs and smiles "Oh yeah! I do have Raj! Hiii Rajie!!!!!" Wayne grins and waves at Raj who is literally sitting right next to him.

"Hiii Wayner!!!!" Raj smiles and waves at Wayne. They're like preschoolers.

The teacher walks in the second before the bell rings, ew...it's a old person. A shiver goes through me, I can't stand looking at old people.

"Hola clase, me llamo es Señora Birch" She writes her name on the board, I suck at spanish, I've been taking it since freshman year and still don't get the difference between ser and estar. They both mean to be!!! Make up your mind and pick one!!!

Ms Birch examines the room and shakes her head. She then pulls out some stupid paper with our class photos from last year, I had this pimple on the top of my lip that I couldn't cover without making my lips look smaller so I absolutely hate my picture.

She puts the paper under this document camera I haven't seen since sixth grade.

"These are your seats for the year, go on, move." She groans a lot less happy than before, this is another reason I don't like old people, they loose energy so fast and then they're mean. But not funny mean, annoying mean.

I grab my backpack and move to the back corner where she has me seated, how is anyone supposed to look at me? I see another photo next to me but can't really make out who it is, I hope it's a new kid I can "befriend".

But when I see who is actually approaching my seat my face drops. I would've preferred Wayne to sit next to me over her.

Her as in MK. 

I know literally nothing about her except I know she hates me, so now I can't even gossip in class. The only reason she hates me is probably because I'm pretty and popular, something she knows she will never be.

She sits down, then lays her head on her desk.

Is she dead?

Maybe if she died then I can get a new seat partner.

Oh and of course Wayne and Raj got put together, why wouldn't they? It's not like they talk loud and obnoxiously and not in spanish all class.

This is going to be the worst year ever.

who does she think she is?! (MKULIA)Where stories live. Discover now
