I could hear everything. The Birds chirping through the glassed window of the bus. The tress brushing against each other while rattling through the wind .It was as if I had blocked all the noise and all the people who were fooling around in the back of the bus had disappeared. The sun was so radiant today and it seemed liked it helped me forget everything I never wanted to remember. Craig was talking to a couple of guys who were in grade eleven who were apart of his baseball team and they were laughing like hyena's in the background but I didn't dare look back at were he was. Ever since me and Eliet became friends again Craig has hated me more if that was possible. Sometimes I would catch him steering at me in a very serious way and quickly look away.

"This ought to be fun!" His steps grew louder with each step. I gasped. He was walking toward me. He stops right in front of me with a frightening smirk and with a straight posture while his hands were inside his varsity jacket. His perfect Blond hair slightly touched his lips and he said "I've bin trying to find you, but before I state my business I would just like to say that it's pathetic what your doing.... Clinging on to Eliet when he doesn't even like you" "You..." he steps closer and his face is inches away from mine saying

"I mean come on! You look like a deformed Barbie doll made out of gum, You dress like you've bin collecting penny's at a water-fountain and just went to the thrift shop and oh God Your face is out of place, God only knows were your mouth is hiding. Your not fooling anyone and you will never be able to get with Eliet!" He soon realizes he was inches away from me and looks into my eyes and I look at his sky blue eyes. Nerves he quickly backs away.

Today I did something that surprised every one including myself, I stood up for myself. Since I felt like I wasn't alone anymore Eliet being my friend was all it took for me to have the strength to stand up for myself. Suddenly I knew just what to say "I hope you can remember what I'm about to tell you that is if your brain doesn't deteriorate from all the lack of space you have in there but who are you to say all these things to me? Huh? Because last time I cheeked your not the riches kid of the block because I saw your mom looking through a trash bags trying to make money for a living" He stopped smiling while everyone screamed with excitement repeating the words "Fight, Fight, Fight!"

The bus driver screamed, "settle down!" The light in Craig’s face immediately faded as if he had herd the death of a relative. He gave up and started to walk away defeated. He suddenly whispered "1st period...room 249...Be there." I turn around surprised as I see him walking away casually. The eleventh grader rubbed his fist against his head disappointed in Craig because he didn't "Finnish me off". The hole bus ride to school I was thinking carefully weather I should go or not and then fifteen minutes passed by and we arrived to Sinka Bridge High school.

I immediately took off my seatbelt to be the first one off the bus. Ugh! If only Lyra came to school early so I can ask her what I should do. The thought finally crossed my mind. I rushed to the office and asked if I could call my parent to the old lady in the desk and she said yes. I typed in the numbers as fast as I could and Lyra finally picked up. "Hello?" "Yeah it's me, Starla" "Why are you calling me from the school?" I whisper as the old women stared at me intensely while talking in the phone. "I don't know what to do...Craig wants to talk to me!"
