First period rolled by in a flash being that it was only thirty minutes. So as always, I drew until the bell rang. Taking a deep breath, I silently tried to sprint into my second period class without being seen. I honestly don't know why, but somehow I can never make it into Mrs. Rocque's class on time. So when she stopped me in mid step, it was no surprise that my name was going on the tardy list AGAIN. With a sigh, I finished making my way to my seat, and pulled out my chemistry textbook. Flipping through a chapter about Atomic Bonds, I felt weird like someone was watching me. I looked to my right and realized I wasn't imagining it. Three rows down I noticed a sad boy with emo~ish blue black hair that hid his eyes completely, and snake bites that seemed to be the darkest thing against his ghostly pale skin. I didn't recognize his face so I assumed he was new. I think he was staring back but I couldn't really tell because of his hair. But while I stared I began to feel a wave go through me like I was exhausted or emotionally tired. Almost as if I wanted to cry...... Biting back tears, I swallowed and looked away. "What the hell is going on?" I thought. It was almost as if I could feel whatever he was feeling. His sadness, his hurt, his pain. When I looked back, I saw that his face was now turned to his book, so I took in a shaky breath and tried to do the same. But the feeling was still there.
