Where did I go wrong?

Chapter 3

JESSICA'S POV

Other than what happened this morning, today has been an okay first day. I mean because I'm so shy and have a little anxiety, I haven't made any new friends. That's okay though, by the time I get some I'll probably be moving again. I've learned not to get to attached with things anymore with all the constant changes.

My mom has text me a couple time asking how today is going. I don't reply though . I know she means well but I'm just not in the mood to lie to her and tell her it's going great.

My dad is in the military so I rarely see him. I miss him a lot though. He's supposed to home in about 6 months. I can't wait to see him.

I have an older brother,Marcus. He's only almost a year older than me but he still acts more like my dad than my brother. I love him alot though. He's been a big part of my life. He's like the bestfriend I never have to leave behind,because I know he's coming with me. I mean yeah, the whole protective older brother thing gets a little annoying,but he's just trying to look after me.

I almost fall off the bench I'm sitting on. The bell has rung and the day is over. Well not for me. Why did I have to get detention. I sigh and start off to room 9. I wonder if there's alot of people. I walk in and I only see one person other than the teacher. He's turned around so I can't see his face, but something about the back of him looks familiar. The door closes and he turns around. Oh no, it's him.

"Jessica?" the teacher says. I look over and nod. "Take a seat over there next to Ivan please." I look around.

So, from what the teacher said, I'm guessing he's Ivan. Of course he's Ivan moron. He's the only other kid in here. I walk over and sit down hesitantly. Out of all people, I have detention with him. Isn't that just the cherry on top. I take a book out and start reading right away.

I've always liked reading. Ever since I was little I would read book after book. It takes my mind off of everything. It's almost as if I'm living in that world. It's cool actually. It's helped alot through out the moving. My mom says I read more than talk. That's true, I guess. I never really talk unless someone talks to me first. I'm really shy so when I do talk, especially with someone I don't know, I sound quiet and innocent. That's why it took me by suprise when I spoke the way I did this morning.

Wait, did something just hit me? I look and see a little rolled up piece of paper. There is only one person that can do this. I glare at Ivan he smiles a little and points to the paper. I grab it and open it. Now he's trying to pass notes, he's probably going to say how clumsy I am and should watch where I'm going more. I read the note making sure the teacher doesn't see.

"Hey, I'm sorry about being a jerk to you this morning. My day didn't start out great. I didn't mean to take it out on you." Wow that wasn't what I was expecting him to write. I look over at him and it doesn't seem like he was being sarcastic about it or anything. I write back.

"It's alright, sometimes you just can't control it. I'm sorry for running into you. It's my first day and I was so nervous to go into class so I was going to go to the bathroom to kinda calm down." I throw the paper at him and it hits him square on the forehead. I try my best to hold back my laugh. He opens the paper and starts writing. He throws it back and I catch it this time.

"Yeah I was thinking it was your first day since I never seen you around. That made me feel even more worse. You probably think I'm a huge jerk right?" I smile a little at that. At least he's admitting it.

"I did but I understand n-

"What is this?" the teacher asks taking from me. I look over at Ivan wide eyed.
