"Fuck!" I shriek at the sound of my alarm.first day of a new school year and I'm already running late.frantically i rush around trying to get ready.I throw on a random red shirt I find on my floor and pair in with some black jeans and a grey hoodie "smells fine" I say not caring enough to actually find something worth wearing.i mean it's school not New York fashion week for fucks sake. "ELLIE!" Joel shouts from downstairs."GET MOVING", "I'm going!" I say.Joel's been on my ass since I first met him then again he's the only reason I haven't recklessly died yet.running past the kitchen as I put on my converse,backpack and coat on.I grad my keys and a bag of chips.not. My first choice of course but beggars can't be choosers.as I get into my red Toyota Joel got me for my 16 birthday a few months ago.I was able to get my permit and license pretty quickly.

the ride to school will only take 10 minutes if I take a few shortcuts.on the ride to school I see familiar faces.obviously I'm not the most well known person at Jackson high but I like to think that at-least a good amount of people know who I am.as I pull into a parking spot on the west end of the school I can already feel dread brewing within me.I've never done amazing at school.never failed, but not enough for any body's standards.I know that this year is my second last year of high school before I graduate and go of to college.so I'll have to start trying harder and getting my gpa up.I hop out my car and make my way towards the entrance.I pull out my phone so I can check my schedule and see what I have first person.no point of going to hometown since I woke up late. " mr Clarence, history..great" I say .

Jackson high school, the biggest high school in town.by the time I'm in the halls it's mostly empty .when I walk into mr Clarence's classroom all eyes are on me as I'm the latest person there. "Nice of you to join us ms Williams" he remarks .that gets a few giggles in the class." Yeah yeah.."I mutter to myself I sit in the back of myself and stay to my self the whole time.typical first day period.when the class is over I make sure that I leave quickly so that I can avoid and conversation with both teachers and classmates who only talk to me because they think it makes them look better.fuck that I think to myself.I run my hand through my short hair and make my way onto the next class

The next class I have is ap English with with Ms couvert.my favourite teacher.she helps me more than antithetical teacher in this fucking hellhole.when I walk in the class I'm met with a familiar face.Dina. My best friend Jesses girl.I'm not close with her as a matter of fact I don't think I've ever said a word to her.she and Jessie have been on and off for a few year now.i never said anything about it because quite frankly I don't really care.she's been to a few party's I've been to but other wise that's it.now I won't lie to you Dina is a very attractive girl.5'2 ,dark hair,sun kissed skin,a body gifted by god.I don't know what the hell she saw in Jesse.hell if I knew that if she was into girls in would go for her.I'm pretty attractive myself.or so I've been told.

Dina and I are very very different "popularity levels".unlike me everybody knows who she is.she is the captain of the girls volleyball team.also know as our most successful team.we've been able to bring in championships every year for the last 10 years. Her season starts soon.who knows maybe I'll go watch a game or two with with Jesse.I decide to be bold and take a seat directly next to her.she holds my gaze for a second before turn away from me to talk to her other friends.Jesse says that Dina has a very assertive personality.she's kind and compassionate but she definitely knows what she want and what she has to do to get it.I'm pretty sure she'll run for student council and get elected as president.

Ms convert stroll into the classroom looking exactly how she did last year."hello class,I hope everyone had an amazing summer,I hope we can have a wonderful year this year and work on some amazing things together.now,for a little social assignment I would like you all to turn right and tell your partner 5 things you did over the summer".Fuck me...always on some social shit i think to myself .Dinas friends turn towards their rights and Dina turns to my direction. "Hey..Elie right ?Jesses friend" she says.I'm surprised she knows who I am.yet alone is talking to me."yeah that's me.so we're not actually about to share what we did over the summer right?" I say. "No way,how's Jesse?"she says while laughing.

Confused for a second I say "shouldn't I be the one asking you?" I haven't seen or talked to Jesse for about two and a half weeks.he went to Cancun with his family and hasn't had good enough reception to call.I'm supposed to meet up with him today at lunch. "He didn't tell you? We broke up for good before he left for Cancun.it was bound to happen you know.mutual thing"she says. "His reception was off so we haven't talked in a minute."I say.I always knew that something like this was coming I wonder what Jesse thinks about it.their social lives being in twined and all that "hey um,I'm have a house pre season party for the team.you should come, bring Jesse" she says and turns back around.

"Ok class lets go over what the plan is for this year...".I think that's the most Dina's ever said to me.I'm walking down the hall when I hear "yo Elie wait up".Jesse, "are we still up for lunch or what" he says as he puts him arm around me as we make our way to my car. Jesses been by my side since pre k when I walked up to him and asked him for Crayon."where to McDonald's?"I say jokingly "of course you want to go there fatass" he says,jokingly punching me in my arm. " hey um..you and Dina broke up huh like for good?"I say teasingly. "Yeah how'd you know?" He says with confusion "me and her have English together this year ,couvert did her signature turn and talk"

"Ohh ok,yeah we broke up.you and I both know it was bound to happen.it just wasn't the same as it used to be...you know you and her would look cute together,she is bi you know" he says.now this is news to me. " dude you can't be serious you've been broken up for 4 weeks,besides I'm not a homewreker " I say. "Trust me I wouldn't care less,i know you think she's attractive.when was the last time you got any play?cat?" He says laughing. "Oh fuck off I though we agreed not to mention her anymore,she did invite me and you to a house party tonight you want me to pick you up?"i say. " hell yeah I need someone new" he says "you're such a whore" I say jokingly.

We pull up to the mall by out school and make our way to the food court ,point out things we want to get the next time we come here.we're walking towards the McDonald's line when we hear laughter.Dina sitting on a near by table with her teammates eating.I'm distracted as I admire her for a minute little things that I never noticed before.a little mole on her neck.her raspy laugh.she looks so free,uncaring of what anyone around her is thinking. "Let me know when you're done eye fucking Dina"Jesse says as he slaps me on my back "thought you didn't want her" " fuck you" I say as we both laugh

"IM HOME!" I tell when I enter the house.no response Joel must be at work.I strip my backpack,shoes and hoodie and lay on my bed .when I open snap chat I'm met with one new friend request. "Dina huh" i whisper to myself.when I accept the request I'm met with : 5323 woodland ave,be there by 8:40!.she has all her other social media on her snap chat .who would I be to not take a look at it.I start with her instagram.volleyball pics,regular pics there's one picture with Jesse and then there's a picture of her at the beach.I stop at that one.god she had a body sculpted by god himself.perfect curved long thick hair beautiful smile.."where is this coming from"i groan with two hands on my face.to try and forget it I shrug off my clothes and hop in the shower.fuck all of this ,I think to myself.
