Chapter 2
I wake up and get ready. Every morning I wake up at 4 to go work at a coffee shop for money. Since my grandma is to old to work I pay the bills and she helps with retire money. At 8, it's no longer my shift because I have to go to school.
"Alana! Hey! Guess what?!" Macaulay says while running up to me like usual.
"Hey! What what!" I say jokingly. Why is he so jumpy?
"I just got a car!!!!!"
"But it's not even your birth day? It's in August, why now?"
What the hell? How is that fair? I say to myself.
"My parents bought it for me! And don't ask why! Cuz I don't know." He said with a sassy tone.
"I know why... 1. Because your parents are stinking rich 2. Because your an only child 3. Because your spoiled roten!" I say while counting with my fingers.
"Jeez, don't have to come up that st-strong. You know? I-I thought we were friends?" He said with a fake sob.
"Fake sobbing is for losers. And by that I mean the populars." I say hoping to get his head straight.
"Fine, fine! Oh, time for french. Yay."
"Uh. I hate mr. Bellano."
We both sigh and head in. In class I have a hard time concentrating because of that voice! Honestly if I could grab that little person saying "run, run,run!" And fling him away I would!
Finally after 2 hours of painful agony it's time for science!!! Yay! I love science, it's so cool when we do experiments and other stuff. It fascinates me.
As I get out of class I have 5 minutes till science. So like my usual routine I go to the bathroom, grab a little snack like an apple or something and grab all my books and go to class. I'm always punctual unlike Macaulay... He gets late alot. On his break he goes out side and ride his bike till he hears the bell! He gets detention about once or twice a week! Oh, that boy is trouble. I don't even know why he's my best friend?!
"Everyone take out your books and turn to page 147." Mrs. Alany says.
"You see that? That's what the earth would look like if we didn't take care of it. Do you really want to be living in that?"
Jimmy slowly lifts his hand.
"Put your hand down Jimmy. This is not funny!" Even though she sorta said that last part while laughing she still meant it.
Everyone in the class goes quiet so she can continue.
"Ok so we are going to do an experiment on that. I will pick your part- aww. It's nice of you to show up mr. Wilkerson. Another detention for you?" "As I was saying I will pick your partners."
Macaulay sits next to me. "Is it so hard for you to not be late?" I ask with a chuckle.
"Maybe..."
"Alana and" she puts her hand back in the bucket to pick another name. "Macaulay."
Macaulay and I look at each other and smile will doing our hand shake.
*high five, fist pound, hand shake, jazz hands*
She explains what we have to do and the materials we need. After that we went straight into the books and google search for some information. We got our earth from a quick run out side. That was all we did for today.
"Hey, you wanna come to my house to continue the project?" He ask me.
"We'll see, I'll call you because I still have to help grandma."
"Ok" was his last response as we walk into the caf. Something was different. I looked around to see but all I saw was the football team with the cheerleaders, the dramatic people, the nerds, the druggies and an empty table for us. But wait... Who's that sexy guy sitting there? Macaulay looks down at me confused. I didn't show it but I was excited for some reason. We go and sit down at our table with a guest.
"Hello!" Macaulay says with his bubbly personality.
"Hi." The strange boy said kinda shy, like I am.
"What's your name? Mines Macaulay and hers is Alana."
"Carlisle. Carlisle Peterson. I moved her from England. My parents wanted me get away with all the-" his words are cut of by the school bully.
"Hey, loser. What's up? I hear you got something for me... Uh?!" He says while wrapping his arm around him and coldly stating it to Carlisle.
"I have nothing." He says in a whisper.
"Ohhh... I'm pretty sure you have a gift for me... Care to give? Or are ya pussy?" He said with a shove.
"Leave him alone billy... Just piss off and bother someone else you prick!" Wow did I just stand up for someone? Did I just speak up? Macaulay looked at me shocked, but not as shocked as me.
"Stay out of this you little shit. Why don't you go and cut yourself or better yet over dose yourself and die you bitch."
I guess that's what I get for standing up. Tears are starting to form and now I'm crying hard.
Next thing I know Macaulay AND Carlisle are both up and punched him hard. I ran.
"Run, run , run." This time I listened to him\her I'm not to sure.
I ran out the school and down the street. I ran to the cemetery to see my parents. As I lay there I fall asleep.
I get woken up by someone. Macaulay! I sprung up and hugged him. Wait. This isn't Macaulay this is Carlisle! I soon realized that Macaulay was beside him. I quickly got off and gave a hug to Macaulay. Uh. How awkward right? I sat their and cried. Both were trying to make me feel better. Their so nice.
"Run, run, run"
