I got to class, and sat at my assigned seat, which is the seat in the very back of the right side. Then I remembered, that girl that I saw in the hallway has the same first period as me. I saw her walk in. She sat in a seat right in my view.
Oh my gosh, she is so pretty. Might as well keep dreaming while I can, I thought.
Throughout the whole class, I didn't listen very much. All this teacher did was talk the whole entire class period. I fantasized about this girl. For a minute, I thought they were real because I thought so much, then I faded back into reality. I looked at her, she noticed I was staring at her. As soon she looked over, I looked away at the teacher. I couldn't help myself, I started smiling a little bit. I think she noticed.

After school, my dad picked me up. He drove to the elementary school to wait for Andrew to come out.
"How long till school ends for him?" I asked.
"There's still Twenty more minutes, now shut up," said my dad.
He turned in the radio to some station that plays '80's music. Finally, I saw Andrew come out of his school. I opened the door for him. He has to sit on my lap. My dad drives a truck, so there's only 2 seats.
When we got home, dad reached over and opened the door for us. He shoved Andrew out of the door.
"For the rest of the day, leave me alone and do your homework, okay?"
I got out of the car and helped Andrew up.
"Go in your room, I'm going to take a walk."
"Don't go too far, and don't take too long!" Said Andrew.
"I know, now go inside."
I sneaked to the road, which isn't too far because we live in a stupid trailer. The only trailer out here. I saw somebody walking, and realized it was that girl I like. It caught me by surprise. I didn't know she lives so close to me! I kept on walking. I saw that she saw me too. Then, she walked towards me.
"Hey, Bryce right?" She says.
"Yeah, hey, what's your name," I said, "sorry, I should know this, we have biology together."
I started to smile. I looked at her and saw that she was smiling too.
"It's fine, we don't really talk anyways. ...Anyway, my name is Kasey."
"Well, hi Kasey, do you live nearby?"
We began walking.
"Oh, yea, I live just down the street, I was just walking to a friends house when I noticed you."
"That's awe-"
We heard someone yell, "Bryce! Get in here!"
It was my dad!
"Sorry, I have to go, that's my dad!"
"Okay, bye!" She said, waving.
I ran back to my house. My dad was fast walking towards me. I looked back and saw Kasey walk inside a house down the street.
"What are you doing out here! I told you to go do your homework!" My dad said.
He grabbed me and threw me, I landed on the side of the car and fell on my stomach on the driveway.
"I'm sorry dad, I just wanted a break from you!"
"What did you say? Say it again!" My dad yelled.
I stood up.
"I just wanted a break from you!" I yelled.
When I said that, I knew I would be in trouble. I froze. My dad slapped me in the face again. I fell to the ground. He picked me up and carried me to my room and threw me to my bed.
"Oww," I said loudly.
I hit the corner of the end of my bed.
"Shut up, and do your homework!" My dad said.
He left the room and shut the door. I got up and started to do my homework, with tears coming out of my eyes.
