Tainted

Chapter 2

Well.

This is awkward. I thought as I look wide eye at everyone.

"May I help you?" The middle aged man with a bald head asked me. I'm guessing that's the teacher.

"Um I'm actually in your class I'm new, I'm Claire Smith." I said fidgeting with my fingers.

"Oh yes, Well you can find any open seat and just listen for today then you can get to work tomorrow. I'm Mr. Wood by the way."

"Okay." I said as I was looking for a seat to take.

Searching for one, I see a seat in the back start to head toward the desk in the back next to a girl with blond hair and and bright smile.

Sitting down I look who's next to me and turn to the blind girl that's smiling at me.

"Hi I'm Samantha, But you can call me sam." She said while I took my seat next to her.

I look at her and introduced myself. "I'm Clair."

"Hi Clair." She said "I hope your first day is going well. Our school is....a little different from the other ones." She said looking at me with a big smile on her face. I just look at her with one eyebrow rised.

"Yeah it's definitely...something" I said trying to find the right
words.

She looks at me with her baby blue eyes and says "Yeah your the new girl, We don't get that many new people here so it's big news to us." She randomly said with a huge smile on her face.

"Miss. Smith I understand it's your first day of school, and trying to make friends but right now is not the appropriate time." Mr. Wood said.

"I'm sorry Mr. Wood. It won't happen again." I say while I turn my body to the front of his class.

"Thank you." Mr. Wood then turn his back to us again and started where he left off.

Sam looked back at me. She still had that huge smile on her face. I feel like she's a really happy person all the time with her blond hair that perfectly straight and dazzling white teeth.

Sitting through the rest of class I try and listen to Mr. Wood, but he just sounds so boring.

"Pst!....pst!" I look to my left and saw Sam still smiling at me. She was kinda creeping me out.

"I'm your first friend here right?" She asked with a tilt of her head.

"Uh...yeah I guess." I said kinda confused. My attention was brought back to the teacher clearing his throat.

He looked up at the clocked then sighed. "Since we only have 3 minutes of class left I'll let you guys talk quietly to one another, but stay in your seats." Then he walked to his desk and started going through papers.

"I'm not trying to scare you or anything Clair but, their are some weird people here. Like really weird." Sam said to me.

"What do you mean weird?" I asked, again confused with her.

"Well like the emo people are depressing. The nerds give people nasty looks if their not as smart as them. The jocks are horndogs and, the people who keep to them self give you weird vibes. So just stick with me and you'll be alright. I'm in the normal group in this school." She said while taking a deep breath.

Well...okay then

"Well thanks for the heads up." I said, grabbing my stuff.
