Finally, class was over. I got through history and English quick. After all that it was time for lunch. I get in line, grab a ham sandwich, a fruit cup and an apple juice. I sit down at an empty table and begin to eat. While I'm eating I see Joseph walking towards me.
'Maybe he'll just walk past' , I think.
But he stopped at the table and asked "You mind if I sit with you?"
"No, no. Go ahead." , I responded.
He just smiled and sat down across from me. It was a little awkward , so I decided to say something.
"So, how are you liking the school so far?" I asked taking a bite out of my sandwich.
"It's cool I guess. Haven't really talked to anyone.. But you." , he answered drinking his juice.
"Oh." , I said chewing my sandwich. I swallowed it and said, "You'll meet more people and have more friends, I bet."
"Nah, I don't really talk to anyone." , He Told me.
I stared at him for a while. I got a little happy when he said that. Yet, I wasn't surprised.
He caught me staring and smiled. "What?" , he asked laughing picking up his sandwich and taking a big bite.
"Nothing. It's just, I don't do well with people either.." , I said.
"Really?" , He asked while chewing.
"Yeah, you seemed surprised." , I responded.
"Well, I mean. It's just, you're petty and all. I assumed you had a few buddies." , he said. Finishing his food.
I smiled. "You think.. I'm pretty?" , I asked.
"Yes, I do." , he answered.
The bell rang. Lunch was over. We both got up and threw our trash away.
"Well actually, today hasn't been that bad. I made a pretty new friend." , He said smiling and walking off.
I stood there for a second, smiling. Then, I went to my last two classes.
