The thin stream of light shone through my curtains making a line breaking light and dark. my eyelids were heavy with sleep i got up the cold wooden floor unforgiving on my warm feet. i padded around my room and pushed my heavy body into the shower.i let the cold water run down my back and through my thick long hair. i quckly grabbed my towel hanging on the rack. After i was dry i got dressed in my black skinney jeans with rips in the thighs, a plain white shirt with a baby blue undershirt showing through. then i slipped on my gray ballet flats, but in my gray lace scarf and blue beanie, grabbed my book bag and went into the kitchen. as i approached the kitchen i saw a mess of yellow on the floor that looked like a mop during spring cleaning. as i walked farther i saw that there was a body connected to it. there lay my mom passed out on the couch sleeping off a hangover. hopefull my dad was in his bedroom sleeping but he could be any where and i didnt fee like looking for him. i,as silently as i could, made my little sack lunch and grabbed a water bottle from the pantry.
as i was walking out of the parking lot i saw Mr.chambers the MaineFeilds High priciple. on the other side of hom was what looked like an angel from God himself. and im a christain! his shaggy blond hair cut perfectly to frame his high cheekbones and square jaw. wearing a black long sleeve shirt that made the muscles in his torso more prominent than forst glance and worn out blue jeans he looked intimidating. he was about 1 1/2 taller than me with long legs and a long torso.his bright blue eyes shinning in the cloudy light. he looked like a jock and a total jerk but when he saw me looking at him his nervous half smile told me otherwise.
"charolette!" Mr.Chambers exclaimed waving toward him. i sighed and followed my head down hoping he wouldnt see my blushing cheeks. i walked briskly to the priciples side as we stopped in the middle of the intersection.
"Jason is new here and he hasnt got anybody to show him around and i though you would be the best fit!" he said smiling at me, his smile seemed to say "do it or an hour detention" .
"sure ya, hi im charolette." i said extending my hand in front of him. he took my hand in his, i knew he wasnt trying to hurt me but his iron grip squished all the bones in my finger together. i smiled wrly holding my throbing hand as i walked and waved him to my side.
"so where did you move from?" i asked pretending to look at something in front of me instead of fainting knowing the best looking guy i had ever seen was walking by my side.
"i know im supposed to be the new kid and totally cool like a shiny new toy. but im boring old me. i moved from the city in springfeild." he said his expresion unreadable.
" i dont think your boring" i blurted my eyes growing wide at the realization of my words. relived he chuckled softly looked at me and smiled. "your the first person to ever say that" he said his smile fading. to break the silence i snatched his scheduale from his hands and looked it over.
"hmmm....... looks like we have gym, history,and english together, i'll walk you there" i said returing his sheduale.
"thanks"he said his eyebrows furrowed in confusion as he turned the school map upseide down then back agaun. i laughed.
"what?" he asked smiling and laughing a little himself.
"i'll show you where to go, i think you would end up in another town without a tour guide." i chuckled.
"ya your right" he said suddenly he looked at me, i felt his eyes on me and i turend to meet his gaze. i looked into his soulful eyes for the first time and was entrance by what i saw inside them. he scared,alone, had no friends, and neede hope.
"you have really pretty eyes" he blurted qiuckly blushing and looking at his shoes. it was then that i relaized we had stopped walking.
"you too" i said being honest. we broke our gaze and made it to history before the bell rang.i had him give Mr.Ericson his class shceduale to sign off on. he thanked the teacher and he took a seat right next to mine.
