Dey

I was sitting at a table with Bryan having some smoothies together. As friends, just to get that out of the way. There's nothing going on between me and Bryan so don't go get any thoughts. Right now we're supposed to be at school but me and Bryan got really bored and decided to go out together. As friends. It wasn't easy though. We almost got caught by teachers so we had some people who were in our class to tell any teacher who asked about us to say that we was in study room.

We're playing this game where I have to choose girls for Bryan and he has to rate them out of 10. It is actually quite interesting what a boy thinks about a girl.

"So what do you think about her?" I asked him.

I point to some random girl who was sitting by herself waiting for someone, as I looked at him curiously.

"4." Bryan answered.

He started to drink his smoothie. She wasn't even that bad and he gave her a four without even thinking. Way to be critical. If he rates her a four; I wonder what he would rate me? I know that sound weird but i'm just curious. She is kind of pretty, man, he must be really picky.

"Really Bryan?" I asked him with a raised eyebrow.

"Fine. I'll give her a 2 instead." He answered, knowing that won't help at all.

I turned my head towards him with a surprised look on my face. You could tell by my face expression I was shocked.

"Say what?! She can't be that low." I told him, I looked at her more closely to notice she was really pretty, but I've seen better.

"Uh yes! Look at her with her big nose, flat bum, no curves, tangled hair, crooked teeth."He paused, as he forced himself not to vomit by the look of it and took a sip of his smoothie.

"Oh Dey, do I have to go on?" He asked, wanting to drop the topic.

Okay you might be thinking by the description that Bryan just gave you of that girl you must think I'm crazy. But from my point of view looking behind all that. She does seem pretty. I start laughing and so does Bryan. He can be rude and funny at the same time. That's one of the thing I like about Bryan. He is someone I feel comfortable with; like if I wanted advice or something and I wanted someone to be honest Bryan would be the person who I would ask. I can talk to him about all sorts of things and not feel uncomfortable. It's how it's always been between us.

"Alright it's my turn." He announced.

I turned to him with anticipation with who he was going to choose for me. Bryan put his smoothie on the table and started looking around the room. He had that curious look on his face, like he always did when he was looking for something. I just sat there waiting for him to choose someone, getting irritated because he was taking so damn long! He likes to take his time while doing something like this all the time, it really does my head in.

"How about him?" Bryan finally said, after the long wait.

I looked to where he was pointing getting really excited that it was going to be someone who was at least decent or a complete stranger, because I don't want to tell him my opinion of someone we know. This boy, will never keep his mouth shut for long. Depending on who you are.

He pointed to someone, and In turned my head around to fully see the person he was pointing to. It was HIM!

Oh no!

This cannot be happening. On a day like this when finally, I am stress free and don't have to worry about not doing homework, deadlines not being met, teachers having some next long lecture on how we need to fix up and how we waste time, when they be standing there for a good 45 minutes talking smack about us and they complaining that we're wasting time.

To see that thing right there, in the same place as I am. WHAT THE HELL!? It can't be him. Why is it him? Why is he back right when things are going to what seems normal to me now.

I looked at him closely to see it was him.

'What should I do?' I asked myself, completely filled with fear.

How did he get out? He wasn't supposed to come back until...I don't care when!

'I'm dreaming. You're just imagining things; the smoothie has just done something wrong to your head. This is all but just a bad dream.' I told myself, not convincing myself one bit.

I closed my eyes and pinched myself on the arm. But when I opened them, I was still here. Nope, it's not a dream sadly. He's here, right now, right here, at this moment.

But if he's here; then the others must be in trouble.

I know this chapter is a short one, which is disapointing I know. But the next few chapters will be way longer than this one, so don't worry.
