Me and Gym

I have this video linked at the top. It's really funny, if you need a laugh today.

I walked out of the classroom still questioning Mr. Tuckers teaching abilities. I looked down at my schedule. Physical Education was listed after Social Studies. I sighed. Gym wasn't really one of my strong points in life. I never had anything for excersize, but I did run on our tredmile every night for about an hour everynight. Anything else that had to do with pushing my body to far I am not a fan of.
May came trotting out if the classroom, an annoyed face glared up at me.
"Um...Hey..."
"Don't." Then she stomped off.
I shrugged and walked towards my locker. I unlocked my locker and grabbed the map. I calculated where I was at and walked along.
I didn't really get a chance to notice all the people, but there was sure alot of people in 7th grade. People were at their lockers, chatting, but most of then we're walking to their classes with friends.
I felt so lonely, compared to everyone else.

I arrived to The gym, which was so much bigger than the one I had at mmy old school. I took out my phone and took a picture for Amy.

"HEY!!! YOU PUT THAT AWAY THIS INSTANT!!!!" The voice boomed across the room.

I paused and slowly dropped my phone.

A young, blonde woman walked over to me. "Do you know our policy? No Phones." She held her hand out. I paused as a cold sweat runned down my forehead and started to give her it, but then someone was running towards us.

"Wait! She didnt know." I recognized the voice. Carlie came over and stopped the teacher from her glares.

"She's new here, she didnt know." Carlie explained. I looked over at her with relief.

"Hm...." She glared at me, but lowered her hand. "If I see it again it's a detention. Got it?" I nodded and walked away with Carlie.

"Your really saved my butt there." I said gratefully.

"No prob Fam." She said and smiled. I looked down at the floored and grinned.

"Hey, don't worry about it. Mrs. Smith is always like that, picking on the weaker kids..." she paused and chuckled. "No offence."
"None taken" I smiled back.
We walked into the locker room where girls were chatting. There were Fat girls, Smaller girls ,and the ones you can't just put in a category.
At least 4 bun girls stood talking in the corner and looked up when me and Carlie walked in.
"Hey Car! Who's this?" A brunette bun girl walked over.
"Ava, Emily. Emily, Ava"
"Hi!" She said cheerfully.
She grabbed my arm and pulled me over to her group.
"Sidney,Bella,Audrey, and Maci."
She pointed to each girl.
I cringed when she pointed to Maci. She had been the one that Josh and Carlie had warned me of. She looked at me funny and then turned her glance to something else.
I turned to look.
3 girls walked in. One had blonde hair with nerdy glasses and a Pokémon shirt on. The next was a heavier girl with a red shirt with a large skull on it, and the last was a tinier girl, with bleached blonde pigtails.
"Um...Well like anyway where you from?" She looked away from the girls.
I still stared. The blonde girl haired glanced at me nervously.
"Quitan." I said quickly.
"Wow, that is a long ways away." The long black haired girl, which was supposedly Bella stepped up.
"GIRLS YOU HAVE FIVE MINUTES. LAST ONES OUT GET PINK SLIPS." Mrs. Smith yelled.
I gulped, I didn't have any gym clothes.
"You better change." Carlie said as she walked out with her friends. "See ya out there!!!"
"Wait..." I tryed to call out, but it was too late.
"Um...Hey," I turned. The Nerdy Blonde was standing next to me with a plastic bag in her hands.
"I have extra if you need some."
"Oh! Thank you so much..."
"Anna. It's Anna."
"Anna." I repeated. "Nice to meet you. And thanks."
"No prob. Hope we'll see each other around." She smiled and walked out the door chatting with Chubs and Blondie.
I changed and got out as fast as I could. I was probably the 3rd to last out.
"Alright girls. We are just going to go over some basic rules and then we're going to play MatBall..." I heard Mrs. Smith say as I walked up.
Girls were hissing "Yes!" and "My favorite!"under their breaths.
"Oh...Emily, Your between Bella and Cassidy."
I nodded and walked toward Bella.
"Awesome! We're next to each other! Sweet!" She said as I sat down.
"Now just some basic rules. No short shorts..." She glanced at the girls with Super short shorts. They giggled when she gave them glares.
"And No Phones, Emily."She looked at me. Some people started to snicker. My face started to get hot, and I avoided her stares.
Then she started to go on about the stupid "respect" and "responsibility" speech that every teacher talks about. I spaced out and looked over at the boys. They were standing up and horsing around. Then I noticed Connor, the boy that knew May, was talking to Evan.
"He's here. HE'S HERE." I thought.
"Ok, well I'm going to start counting off. 1....2....1....2" She pointed to each girl.
"....2..." She counted me off.
I looked over at Carlie, who was holding up a number 1 with her hand. She notice me a shrugged with disappointment.
I looked over at Anna, who was holding up a 2.
"Alright. 1's are are kicking and 2's are on the field." She said then she walked away with her clipboard.
I started to walk towards the right side of the gym, because that's where mostly everyone kicks it, but then I started to notice more and more boys started to congregate over the area. I felt a hand grab my shirt and pull me back toward the right.
"I wouldn't go over there if I were you." I whirled around. There stood Anna, pushing her glasses up shyly.
"And why not?"
"Boys and girls are separated in Gym. Even if when play together, their seperated."
"Wow." I said. "Is it always like this?" She nodded.
The game started pretty bad, it was 9-0 even before we got to kick.
The final score was 17-3. Our team lost.
Anna wasn't the best kicker, and didn't try to go for the Home Run wall, but she did score us a Home Run when she ran.....almost. She was about an inch from the base and then one of the stronger beefier boys threw the ball and hit her straight in the back.
After the game we all went into locker room defeated. Some of the girls bragged about how amazing their team was. I just got changed, but before I got out, Anna stopped me.
"Hey, um... where are you headed next?"
"The Library."
"Me too! Want to come with?"
"Sure."
So me and Anna walked out of the locker room and out the gym doors to the library.
