Opposites Attract {Janiel}

Chapter 2

~Daniel~

I quickly rush to get my books and stuff them into my backpack. I put my backpack, grab an apple and rush quickly out the door. I wait at the end of my driveway, waiting for the bus to arrive. It's hard moving to different schools often. I'm used to being the tough guy in my schools. Top notch, Ultimate God, whatever crazy nicknames I was given, but the truth is, I'm sick of it. All of the really sweet, and really hot, guys are the ones I'm "not allowed near" or "not cool". I thought this school would be a start over, but I guess it's not. Still the same old same old. Snotty hot guy that's too cool for geeks or nerds. I snap out of my thoughts to realize the bus was waiting for me and I quickly hop on the bus. I look around for a seat that is not filled and there's one open. I scoot in the seat, and the person who's sitting in it awkwardly moves over and continues to stare out the window. He probably knows me as Sawyers gang. Great. I'm known as one of them jerks. I sigh and patiently wait till we arrive at the school.

I hop off the bus and the person I was siting with quickly rushes to his gang, and I see him turn back and look at me, and quickly rushes off with his friends. I recognized that face. I knew that face. That was the guy who I caught staring at me. The guy with the most beautiful green eyes and perfect hair. Snap out of it Daniel  I tell myself and I continue walking into the school. I open my locker and unpack my stuff when I hear footsteps behind me. I sigh, and turn around to see Sawyer and his crew. "Hey Dan!" They say slapping my back. "Hi"  I say, trying to act natural. "Where were you last night! You didn't answer any of our calls and you missed an epic party!" He says and all the guys agreeing. "Sorry, I had to study for a test today." I say, just realizing how geeky that sounds. "Who cares about those stupid tests." Sawyer laughs. "I've never studied for one test and I'm still here." He laughs again. You probably bribe the teachers to let you past  I tell myself. "You can make it up by coming to the party at my house tonight!" He smiles as his crew passes high fives around. I nod yes. "Sure, why not." I smile. "Alright!" Sawyer says, high fiving me. Sawyer quickly turns around, and I look behind him to see what he was so anxious about. It's the boy I sat next to on the bus, with three of his friends. Sawyer puts his leg out and trips him, and he tumbles to the ground. I wince at the hard smack as I hear his body hit the ground. They laugh, and the boy's friends quickly help him gather his stuff and help him up. They just walk it off. Sawyer turns around laughing. "What was that for?" I ask. Sawyer shows a surprise look on his face. "For fun" He laughs. "Why, you don't like it?" I freeze. What do I say? "Cool!" I laugh, and they laugh. "See you tonight!" He says, and they walk off. I can't believe that's what they do here. Trip innocent people for fun. I sigh and head to my first period.

I fix my shirt and my jeans. I am really regretting saying yes to this party. I say bye to my mom and I head out the door. I walk along the sidewalk to Sawyer's house.

Once I get to Sawyer's house, I knock, someone immediately answers. "aayyyee Daniel!!" The guy says. "Hi" I smile and I walk in, looking for Sawyer. "Look who actually showed up!" Sawyer yelled, laughing, and everyone cheers. I smile awkwardly. Boy. This was gonna be fun.

It's half way into the party. We are all in a circle. Playing truth or dare. I've been avoiding my turn for a while now, doing stuff like going to the bathroom, taking a phone call, or even getting more food. It's my turn, and I ran out of excuses. "Daniel, Truth or Dare?" Sawyer asks me. "Truth." I say. "Come on you chicken. Truth? Really?" Everyone laughs. I shrug. "Fine. Dare. I'm the Dare KING." I laugh, and everyone laughs.

It's the end of the party, and everyone's leaving. In fact, I was the first one to leave. I continue to walk home. I'm going to admit, that party was pretty fun.

I quietly open the door to my house and I sneak up into my room and shut the door. I take off my clothes and put them in my wash, and I change into just bottoms, and I head into bed.
