Run (TOTASC)

Ch.1 The Arrival

I ran as fast as I can. I need to get there before it is too late. One more block to go. I really need to go to this trip before the bus closes the doors and leaves me here, with my parents, and rule. I hate rules. As I ran half block, I heard a strange noise. A loud strong noise. Oh no. The bus. I started giving bigger steps each time I stepped forward. One ,two, one, two.

"Teens, are we ready?" I heard a lady through a microphone say.

I finally got there and realized that only about five kids were left to get on the bus. I ran towards them and waited for them to get on. When it was finally my turn I stepped inside and notice a lady with a clipboard writing something. She looked like in her 30's or younger. I went to her which just took me four steps and tapped her in the shoulder to get her attention.

"Ummmm excuse me ma'am," she quickly turned to look at me with some huge blue eyes that looked like a Katy Perry size "I'm here for the camping trip."

"Oh yes. You are..." she turned to look for my name on the board. "MaryJane Clifford. Wow very elegant name." She said smiling and marking me present. I prefer being called just Jane. Ugh. "Take a seat wherever you like. We're about to leave." I noded and went to find a seat.

Nope. I can't see a available seat. There are some in the back but I just realized that all eyes were on me and now I'm scared. I don't like it when I get a lot of attention. The last time I did I was 8 years old when I sang at the beach with some friends. Comfortable I was but now I'm 16 and time had changed. Teens nowadays judge and create rumors on simple things. I used to be judged for my looks mostly. I have olive skin color and black hair. My eyes are a type of dark brown and red. Weird. My body is curvy. My friends say that I'm skinny and chubby but I just agree with the fat part. Why feel confident about yourself if sooner or later someone will make you think different.

I took a step further and started walking. From the corner of my eye I will be checking if I see empty seats. Accidently, I didn't realize that I actually was staring at, what it looks like, the jocks. How I realized that? Well, they all have that fuck boy haircut and some of them have the 'cool' cali jackets. I sigh and look for a seat, this time looking around. Bingo! I walk towards the seat until all of a sudden legs appear on the seat. Looking for the owner of such shiny legs is a girl. In my hood, we call them 'sluts'. I look at her sympathetically so she won't attack me later on, and say.

"Hmm, is it occupied?" I say trying to smile but her ocean blue eyes attack me like dagger.

"No" she says with a tone. I take off my 'happy' face knowing this wasn't gonna end well anyway. Just as I was about to walk away, royalty spoke, "and you cannot sit here. My legs hurt, and I don't want you here. I mean look at you." She gotta be kidding me! She shouldn't have said that to ME.

"Oh, well how do i say this without sounding mean. Hmmm, I don't care." I smile sarcastically and sit. Yes. On top of her legs.

She yelps and tries to move her legs. I, as the nice person I am, lift my butt a little so she may move her legs. As I was about to sit down again, next thing I know, I sat on the floor. I looked up to see what happened but all of a sudden I feel a pain on my left hip. I placed my hand there and pressed to the pain could calm down but it hurt more. I bet I'll end up having a bruise. I angrily looked up knowing that the bitch had kicked me and I bet she was smiling. When my eyes met hers she frowned and knitted her eyebrows. My face was burning and my hands were sweaty and balled into fists. The girl moved back pressing her back to the window side and stared at me fearfully. Didn't know I was on my feet again and the pain had washed away being replaced with anger and rage. As I was about to step towards the girl to show her my fist from a close view, the lady that had attended me earlier stood next to me. Confused she looked but also disappointment was written in her eyes.
