Chapter one: Aiden

CHAPER ONE: AIDEN

Tap, tap, tap. The sound of my pen hitting my desk was all I could hear as I was waiting for the bell to ring at Twisted Pine high school.

"Just five more minutes" said someone from behind me. Normally I wouldn't care about the wait, but today was my little sisters 9th birthday and it was up to me to give her some sort of celebration.

The bell rang and everyone began to run out of the classroom. I waited, I always sat in the back to avoid attention and I hated crowds. I reached behind myself to grab my black hoodie and book bag slung over my chair, slipping on my hoodie and slinging the bag around my shoulder I began to walk toward the exit of the school. As i am walking down the hallway to leave a short guy with black hair and green eyes gets pushed right into me by the lead cheerleader Ashley.

He dropped the skate-board he was holding, I caught him by the arm as a teacher came out of a classroom stepping on the skate-board, falling down on her back as it slid from under her.

"Who's skateboard is this!?" She yelled as she stood back up her voice echoing down the hall that had cleared moments before

The teachers name was Ms. Switchwater, she was the most hated teacher at the school, not nice to anyone even other teachers.

She glanced at me.

" Oh, Aiden I should have known it was you! Both of you, detention tomorrow after school" She said cutting me off

"I can't do that I need to be home to watch after my little sister!"I said quickly, letting go of the person's arm and standing up straight.

"And I can't either because I got uhhh...important things to do...yea!! That's it."

"No more excuses or you're both getting three more days!" She said pointing her finger at us.

We stood there silent as she walked off. "Damn if only I didn't have to watch my sister I wouldn't mind even three more days" I said smiling.

"What a bitch, my parents are gonna be so pissed, and it happened on my first day!" He says walking over to pick up his skate-board.

"Ah, just tell them it was my fault, I mean we did both get blamed." I said following him out of the school.

"Yeah, that might work" he replies walking through the doors that lead outside.

I remain silent as we walk to the sidewalk

"I've got to go left here, guess I'll see you tomorrow in detention."

I say, stopping at the edge of the sidewalk.

"Yeah, I go right here, guess I'll see you tomorrow as well, oh and thanks for not letting me bust my face wide open back there" He said as he turned to walk away

"Well i can't let that be your first day of high school story to tell your kids, might sound too much like a loser." I say making us both laugh then walk our separate ways.

As i walked the streets I began to think about myself. My name is Aiden. I was 14 years old 6 foot tall with black hair that I wore to the tip of my shoulders, my eyes where dark, nearly black, I was thin and slightly pale and wore mostly black clothing.

"Welcome Aiden, I've been expecting you" said the women behind the desk as I walked into Books A 'lot

"Hey Mrs. Quill" I replied with a smile . Mrs. Quill has owned this book store for many years she was a short old women probably in her 80's and one of the nicer people ij ever met. "Were you able to get the book?" I asked her
