While walking to a bench with Mel during our zero period, she was talking about her classes. How they were so boring but helped her a lot. And how the teachers were annoying too. Especially Miss. Turner. Youd think that lady would stop being such an ass, but no. When we sat down she asked me how I felt about my classes. "They arent bad to be honest, I like them except for Turner." I told her. And it was the truth, my classes so far were going great. My grades and gpa were really good too and my pre college classes were easy. "I heard theres gonna be a new kid! Do you think we will give them a tour?" Mel told me. "Im not sure, I hope I dont" I replied. "Please!! We can do it together if they pick us!" She pleaded and started pushing me. "I dont know amor!!" I replied and laughed.

We started doing some homework and shared music with each other. Like we always did, since to others we are "boring". But I think its just peaceful and simple. We go out sometimes, hang out with friends, and just hang out at each others houses all the time. "Have you heard this one?" I asked Mel and handed her my earbud. "Lemme hear!!" She replied and listened to it. She giggled and smiled at me. "That song reminds me if jellyfish??" She told me. "Jellyfish?? Thats something Mel" I answered her and kept on listening to music. With her telling me song recommendations as well, and we added it to our playlist. Sometimes when im bored, I draw too. One of my favorite things to do. Mostly draw hands or nature things. "I drew you a cherry blossom tree yesterday" I whispered to Mel and she smiled. "Lemme see!!" She responded and I flipped to the page. I ripped it out and she started drawing a little heart on the tree. "There." She said and showed me it. "Its not done amor" I replied and put our initials inside the heart. It looked like we engraved it on the tree. "It looks perfect now!" I told her and we started laughing. The bell rang for our fifth period and we had to go to class.

Once our teacher, Mr. Ramos, started class me and Mel took out our notebooks. This was probably one of our "hardest" classes since we were doing AP calculus. It really isnt that difficult for me since I used to practice it at my old school. In the middle of his lesson, he got a phone call. A bunch of students from the room would joke around and say oh its for me bye! Or something like that. "Rodriguez go to your counselor." Mr. Ramos said. "Which one?" I asked. It was me and this other guy with the same last name. "Alexa go." He repeated and I got up. "Take your things with you, you aren't leaving but take them." He told me and I said bye to Mel. Maybe it was the college classes I needed help with. While walking I saw the photographers of our school taking photos. "Hey Alexa!!" A girl yelled as she came running up to me. Holding her camera in one hand and side hugging me with her other arm. "Um hi?" I replied. Who was this girl?? "Can I take a photo of you!! You will make the yearbook better!" She asked me. "Sorry I have to go with my counselor.." I said quietly and waved bye. Maybe she was in a class with me or something. I did feel bad since she was nice, but I didnt know her.

When I walked inside my counselor's office, he had decorated it differently. "Oh Alexa, sit down please I need to talk to you about someone." Mr. Arellano told me. He opened his macbook and started clicking and typing. "Can I ask why im here.." I asked. "Oh yes, about a new student coming tommorow." He replied and looked up. "Im assigning you to do it. You were the only one available during sixth period kiddo." He told me and my eyebrows shot up. "Wait what about Mel? She wanted to do it." I answered and looked at his decorations. He paused so he could type more things on his macbook and turned back to me. "Im not sure. She already toured two people last school year. Lets give you a chance." Mr. Arellano told me and I nodded. "I guess.. Bye Arellano" I replied. He nodded and waved bye.

Once I got back, the bell rang and I had to wait for Mel to come out. She walked out and smiled. "Omg what happened? Was it about your college classes?" Mel asked as I held her hand to walk. "No.. I have to tour the new girl. I told him you wanted to but he didnt let me." I replied and sighed. Mel got excited and jumped. "Lex!! Omg now you get to tour a student!!" It wasnt that exciting but atleast I would know how they feel. About a new school and stuff. We walked to a bench and waited until lunch. Once Ale and Isa got there, we left. I asked where Adrian was, and Isa told me he went to visit his aunt. "Bruh I needed him to let me borrow his truck." I replied. Isa looked confused and asked why. I needed it so I could take Mel to this aquarium. She said she liked jellyfish.. so I wanted to take her to see them. I whispered to Isa and she smiled. "Aww!! Thats so cute Lex" She yelled and hugged me. "Whats going on?" Mel asked and turned to look away from Ale. "Oh nothing!!" Isa yelled and smiled. Way to make it obvious right? Isa whispered to me that she would give me the keys. Atleast she didnt say it out loud.
