TAYLORS POV
So i am now a little more adjusted, organized, and comfortable. Ive had about a week of school, i have had some homework, but not too much. I know that will change. Robert has been giving me a ride home every day, i dont mind staying after school, sometimes Aaron stays too. The only day i hate is Mondays, because i have to sit in an empty room while Robert has to go to a meeting, but its not too bad all the time. Im tuning out morning announcements and thinking about whats going to happen. Mr. Wright is a little less creepy, so i can bear his class now. P.E. Im not too fond of, but i can manage. Art is good because we dont get homework, even if we did i would like it because it would probably be drawing or something like that. ELA with Mr. Stark is a little better, when we write i write for the whole time we are given, but i just zone out when we read. Science is okay, i just cant wait until we do labs and things like that. Study hall is my time to catch up, or if i dont have to catch up, then i just talk to Aaron. Lunch is lunch, nothing changed. Drama is very fun, its like my second favorite class, and im not half bad at acting. Then social studies is very fun also. Its funny how Mr. Palmer goes up to the front of the room and acts out history. He always asks me questions about how to make class more interesting and stuff. And im kind of like his assistant, he always has errands for me to run. Fine by me, i can be out of the classroom when i do and not get in trouble. Anyways, the first bell rings and i meet up with Aaron and go to art. She explained to me that Mr. Sweeney is a very weird teacher, then i told her about Mr. Wright and both of the foreign language teachers are weird i guess. Mr. Holmes likes us as students a lot. He always gives us the warmest smile when we walk into his class.
"Hello ladys!" Mr. Holmes says. Dont you sometimes wonder what your teachers first names are? I only know two of my teachers first names. I eventually find out though.
"Hi Mr. Holmes." Me and Aaron say in sync. We take our seats and start sketching. Me and Aaron like art a lot, she is very good at it, but i suck at it even though everyone says i dont. The only things i can draw are animals, and manga characters. Aaron draws flowers and nature stuff, as well as sophisticated anime. So if we entered a drawing contest, she would win. We work on our superhero project in art, then the bell rings and i go to ELA. I walk past Mr. Starks desk quickly and to my seat, its just me, Ellie, and Mr. Stark so far.
"Good morning Taylor." Mr. Stark says.
"Morning." I say as i take out my binder and write in my journal. The topic is to write about what you like in someone, thats a little weird, but i cant argue with a teacher because ill get in trouble and my mom will be disappointed. I dont go too descriptive with it, because if i have to share, i dont want anyone to think that my secret admirer is in the room, because their not. I start writing and i write so fast my hand starts to cramp.
What i like in someone.....
Someone has to be very nice to me, and put up with my weirdness. I like to laugh, so they should be able to cheer me up when im upset. I mainly like guys with short, dark brown hair. Im not a blonde person that much to be honest. I dont care how tall they are, how muscular they are, or anything like that. Thats all i can think of for now.
I finish writing. And of course i get called on, sometimes i get annoyed by Mr. Stark. I read it nervously, hoping no one thinks im writing about them. Then Mr. Stark asks me a question when im done. "What about facial hair?" He asks.
"Um, i dont know, it depends. I dont like long, shaggy beards, if they were to have facial hair, i like maybe a little stubble, maybe a little more. I dont know." I say, he just nods, then someone else gets called. Okay.. Tell me thats weird, if its not, then there must be something wrong with me. The bell rings, finally, and i go to science. Robert, i mean, Mr. Downey, checks homework and talks about what we are doing today. We get to do a lab about chemical reactions. Sounds fun. I work alone since in science, i dont have friends so. I get a good grade on my lab, it was easy. We do some notes until class is over. Then the bell rings for study hall, and i wait for Aaron.
"Do you like labs? Or should i stick to notes and paperwork?" Mr. Downey asks me.
"What do you think im going to say?" I ask him with a raised eyebrow.
"Okay, ill stick to notes and paperwork then.." He says deviously.
"You knew what i meant and that wasnt it!" I yell, not seriously. Then people start coming in. Me and Aaron work on some homework at first, then we both finish and annoy eachother a little bit. I can see that Mr. Downey is a little annoyed, but he doesnt say anything, which is weird. Me and Aaron eventually stop, and just talk to eachother until its lunchtime.
After lunch, we walk to social studies and once again, we are the first two students. "Hello Taylor and Aaron." Mr. Palmer says, looking up from his papers.
"Hey, whats on the agenda for today?" I ask.
"Rambling about history, a little bit of packet work, nothing exciting." My smile fades. "Im kidding, we are going to talk a tiny bit about an upcoming project, then go outside for a couple."
"Thanks god! I thought you were serious at first." I said.
"Which reminds me, could you go tell one of the office ladys that my class will be outside for half of this block?" He asks.
"Sure, right now?" I ask, he nods. "Can i bring Aaron?"
"Sure. Just dont wander the halls."
"I dont wander! Only after school i wander." I say defensively. Making Mr. Palmer chuckle. Then me and Aaron walk out if his room and to the office.
"For half of this block, Mr. Palmers class will be going outside." I tell the office lady.
"Okay, thanks for letting me know." She says, Aaron just my shadow, then we walk back to social studies. Before we know it, its time to go outside. The boys are throwing a football, the girls are sitting on the grass and gossiping. Me and Aaron are on the sidewalk talking, the she steals my bracelet and runs way from me. I quickly get up and become sonic running after her.
"Hey! Aaron give it back!!!" I yell as i catch up to her. Im a little faster than her, so im not mad because i can can it back. I wasnt paying attention for a second, then all of a sudden i fall to the ground. My left arm hurts and i hear someone groan in pain. I look over and realize i ran into Mr. Palmer, full speed running too. "Oh my god! Are you okay Mr. Palmer??" I ask. He sits up, holding his right arm.
"Um, i just got ran into, fell on the ground, and my arm hurts like hell." He stops there. I feel bad now.
"Im so sorry" i get up and hold my hand out to help him up. I see Aaron run back to me, she didnt see what just happened.
"What happened here?" Aaron asks, i gave her a look, like really? What do you think happened? I thought to myself.
"Taylor ran into me, and i fell to the ground." Mr. Palmer answers.
"Ill be right back, ill go get you an ice pack." I said walking into the school. Nobody really noticed what happened, which is good because i dont need that attention building up on me. There will be a rumor going around that i tackle teachers.
The nurse gives me a hard time, so i have to explain what happened before she gave me the ice. I ran back, with a slight limp and gave Mr. Palmer the ice pack. "Here, once again, im sorry." I apologized for like, the fourth time.
"Thanks, and its fine. Your honestly stronger than you look." He said, we both chuckled a little bit. "You didnt get ice for yourself?" He asked. I shake my head. "Why not? You look just as hurt as i am."
"Well, im young, i can deal with pain better." I said, successfully insulting him a little.
"Are you saying that im old?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. I nod a little. He shakes his head. "Thats not a nice thing to say... You hurt my feelings Taylor. So thats twice you hurt me today." He says, not being serious.
"Im sorry, the one i didnt do i purpose."
"What about the other?" He asks.
"Maybe, but it was a joke, to cheer you up i guess."
"You tried to cheer me up by insulting me?" He asked. Then the bell rings.
"We will talk later, i have to go to drama." I run into the school, grab my stuff from social studies, and go to drama. I still feel a little bad about running into Mr. Palmer full force, and im sure he will tell many people too.
