Just the Usual High School Love

Chapter 1

I got off the bus and walked inside Jackson High School. I walked down the hall and saw a group of guys all staring at the screen of someone’s phone shouting then all at once they screamed “and its out of the park!!” I rolled  my eyes and continued walking when I looked over at a group of girls flipping their hair, applying lipstick, texting and giggling all at once. They glared at me probably because I wasn’t doing any of those thing and because I wasn’t wearing the same tight dresses but instead a baggy shirt and jeans but I did have one thing they had, confidence because I didn’t really care much about looks and they hated that about me. I ignored them and continued walking down the hall when I saw another group of girls staring at the other girls copying their every move.

Oh the clicks…

I walked over to a group of boys just chilling like no one was around( ahh my people). There were a few girls and when I saw a few I mean me(Ann and my best friend Krista. We were those girls who didn't care much about our appearances and just wanted to have a good time, same with these guys it wasn't all about sports and blowing girls to them, it was more than that. Unlike any other guy in this school.

I walked over to my favorite guy ever Brendan, we hugged and he walked me down the hall with his arm around me. wait you're probably thinking that we're dating. HA no we've been best friends since as long as I can remember and we're so close you would think we we're dating if you just looked at us walk down the hall together. All the other guys followed including Krista who was holding hands withJoey, they actually are dating. Brendan and I were leading the pack and they followed like dogs. Don't get me wrong they're all great but really just Brendan, Krista, Joey and I were in this of many clicks. the others just followed so they could look like they were in a click. Not to be mean but man did them following us get kind of annoying, there were only three of them so I was lucky enough not to have any classes with them, and also lucky enough to have every class with Brendan. Sadly no classes with Krista except lunch and gym.

I continued down the hall and got to my first class, I departed with everyone except Brendan, he still had his arm around me. The teacher instructed him to remove himself from me (in those strange words) and we sat down next to each other in the back of class.

I wasn't the smartest kid in class and neither was Brendan but together we weren't so bad. I know I know I'm always saying together and people think were dating but we really aren't I think it would just be weird. Krista has always said that we should date but I'm not sure about that. I rolled my eyes when I remembered her comment on the bus this morning, " you guys are inseparable, a great team, would look super cute together and basically already are dating." I looked at him and he was using his phone under his desk. Who was he texting? I wondered to myself my phone buzzed in my pocket, of course who else would he text but when I looked at my screen it was a text from Krista asking if I brought my algebra 2 book with me and if I could drop it off at her locker after class. this made me even more curious so I tapped Brendan and asked him who he was texting and he just replied " Oh its no one".

Okay he was hiding something from me, whoever this was he didn't want me to find out.

Class went on as boring as usual and then the bell rang bringing me to attention and I exited class with his arm around me like we had come in except this time curiosity was flooding my mind. What if he had a secret girlfriend he wasn't telling his best friend about? Okay now I was mad because UM what else would it be?! I  was going to find out so I could make fun of him for it if she's a loser.
