Chapter 5

By the way I'll be updating the characters as you get to know them in the chapter they're in

"I swear I will cry for you if you get that elective."

"It's really not that bad once you're in there, I hope you're in there."

"That's easy for you to say!"

I rolled my eyes.  We were standing in the middle of the hallway.  There was five minutes until fourth period: Electives.  Since I came late I don't get to choose my elective, I get put into the elective that has room left.

Cats excited because her elective only has about fifteen people.  Anna's freaking out because those fifteen people include: Cat, Alex, Wesley, Justin, James, Rose Angel, Logan, Tyler, and their fans.  I know right I laughed too when I heard they had 'fans'.  But she's probably exaggerating because that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

"You guys chill out there's like a thousand electives, what are the odds."  I said.

"But I literally have nightmares about that's class, rumor has it that Alexia and her posse is in there."  Anna said panicking.

"You are so ridiculous, there are no rumors about who's in what class and since I'm actually in that class I would know.  No Alexia's not in that class but her posse is."  Cat said annoyed. This is the most she's ever talked.

"It's still my worst nightmare."

"Well let's settle this once and for all." I opened my bag and pulled out my schedule.

"Elective, choice between volunteer or free period, Mr. Lan."

The color from Anna's face drained.  "Oh no."

"Oh yea!"  Cat cheered.

"You're going to turn into one of them I know it."  Anna said.

"Anna calm down, I'm not gonna change because a few people you don't like are in a class."  This girl is kinda crazy.

"Well bye Anna!  We'll see you some other time."  Cat yelled out while grabbing my arm and walking away.

"She's just exaggerating the class isn't that bad, we do whatever we want and the teacher doesn't bother to stop us."  That sounds pretty crazy.

"Of course I don't, I just do work from another class."  She added.

So far what I know about Cat is that she's nothing like her friends.  Who are all boys.  She's quiet, and nice and not a flirt.  I don't know how they get along.  I wonder if they're really nice to her seeing as they leave her in the bathroom for lunch everyday.

"And we're here."  She smiled.

Yay.  I looked through the doors mini window.  Wow.  It's worse than first period.  Oh no.  What if the same thing happens again!  So much attention is not good.  I know I met some of them earlier but what if they talk to me!  And the teacher is right there without a care in the world, actually enjoying watching the kids have rap battles. I tried looking for a seat.

"It doesn't matter where you sit cause when the ten minute bell rings we'll split up into our choices.  So you can stand with me in the back for now."  Cat offered.  I know I said I didn't want friends but I couldn't decline Cat.  She was so nice and shy with her soft voice and she seems so closed off.  She stands alone in the back everyday.  I nodded my head.  Its the good in me, I can't help it.
