The New Kid

Chapter 17- Paparazzi?

12/14/15 Day E
The guy looked up from his camera to look at Daniel. "What are you doing here, this is private property." Daniel said.

"Oh, uhhhhmm..." The guy stammered. He was probably new to the whole paparazzi thing because he just got up and ran instead of asking a barrage of questions.

We all just stared after him for a moment, but then I started chasing after him. I don't really know why I did. The only close to logical reason is, I love to run. I soon caught up to him and put my hands on his shoulders and jumped up.

I scared him and he fell to the ground breathing hard. "Tag." I said. "You're it." The others, who came chasing after me, started laughing and Raina hit my arm.

"He wasn't playing." She groaned. "Now he has to tag one of us, and we don't even know him."

"Well I think he should play." Devon says.

"Yeah, I mean, he doesn't seem that bad." Sierra says.

"We should vote, if you want him to play raise your hand." Daniel said. We all raised our hands, including Raina. "It's decided then, your playing tag." Daniel said to the guy.

He turned around so he was laying on his back and facing us now. He said meekly, "What."

He has blond hair that's like spiked up in the front, but not like a tidal wave, like some guys who spike their hair do, *cough* *cough* Daniel *cough*. He has blue eyes and dimples. He looks familiar My brain says. Where have I seen him before?

"You do know how to play tag, right?" Raina asked him.

"Y-yeah."

"Okay well we're playing tag, and you're it." Raina said sassily.

"O-okay." He stuttered.

"Wait, what's your name?" Sierra asked helping him up.

"Uhh, Nathan." He replied. Nathan, Nathan, hmmmm..... OH! Nathan. Ohhhh, he was in a few of my classes when I was in 6th grade. I remember now. I also remember how I used to have a crush on him and he would call me that stupid name, but then I went to this school. He's still pretty cute. Jalynn! What! He is, no, actually he's hotter. Omg you're so stupid. But he i-

"How old are you?" Raina says interrupting my thoughts.

"Uhh, 17."

"Can I see your camera?" I ask him, and not waiting for an answer I grab it from him and delete the pictures he took of us.

"Hey!" He protested.

"Don't worry we'll let you take more pictures, but we have to say which ones you keep and which ones you delete." I say as I hand the camera back to him.

"Also, do you remember me?" Raina and Sierra looked at each other made creepy faces.

"Not like that!" I exclaim, as I notice their look, because I knew they had dirty minds, and would think of something totally different from us having class together.

He studied my face for a moment before saying, "Yeah! Jayleenie, how could I forget you. You left in 7th grade, you didn't even say bye to me." He fake pouted.

"Ughhh, we were so close to forgetting that name." I say putting my thumb and pointer finger together.

He gave me that name because at the beginning of the school year in 6th grade, the teacher made groups of 4 and we had to draw this map or something and like there were spaceships and stuff, wait no, it was what would you bring to another planet to get life started and what would you find on that planet.

Nathan, along with Tyler Schwab, and my old friend Olivia, were in my group. Nathan gave everyone a nickname about something on that planet. Olivia was called Oliviant and was the type of habitants on that planet, they looked like Oompa-loompas. Tyler's was Schwabadactyl like a Pterodactyl but more scary. Mine was Jayleenie and it was a plant like a cattail, but you could eat them like a hotdog, he was Nathan, the ruler of our planet, of course.

"Why did you leave anyway?" He asked.

I struggle for an answer and the best one I could come up with right off the bat, sounds like a question, "Uhhh, my parents don't like the public school?"

"But don't like your brothers or something go there?"

"Uhmm, they didn't want me to go there."

"Okay, now lets continue our game of tag. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" Raina exclaimed, noticing my unableness to come up with a lie, running away from Nathan.

We played for about 15 minutes before Nathan got a call from his boss asking if he had the pictures. We told him to say yes, so he did. "Okay photoshoot time!" I said clapping my hands together. "Raina, do you wanna be in it?" I asked her.

"No." She replied.

"What about you guys?" I asked Devon and Sierra.

"Sure......" They reply, very unsure.

"I'm not. So, Nathan, just take a picture of them." I say pointing to Daniel, Devon, and Sierra.

"Okay."

"Okay, so this is what you guys should do, Sierra and Devon should be hugging in the background and then Daniel should be acting like he's about to step on them." I say.

"Yeah, I guess that's okay, even though I was supposed to get pictures of you guys not knowing, you know?"

"Then just act like you just got a good angle." I say.

They got into position, Sierra and Devon hugging in the background and Daniel walking by pausing with his foot up. Nathan started snapping pictures and they looked really good. "Is that enough because I'm gonna fall over." Daniel says.

"Yeah that's good. But you guys need to do something else now." So the three of them pretended to be taking their own picture and made silly faces at the phone.

Others were just the three of them laughing and talking. And the last ones were just of Daniel, like him walking away, climbing a tree, laying on the ground, normal stuff like that.

Then we all went through the photos and told Nathan which ones he could show his boss, which ones he could keep himself, and which he had to delete.
