Changed For You

Friday - 2:20 pm

I stared at the clock yet again seeing it's still 2:20 and sigh. I was told to meet him at my locker which is downstairs, and I am upstairs. He still hasn't told me what it was exactly that we were doing. I start thinking about what is in store for me, us. I smile and stare at the floor, fantasising.

I am startled back into reality by the ringing bell signaling the end of school. I grab my bag and stand behind the unhealthy skinny blonde in front of me who takes forever to get out of the middle of the aisle. But when I get tired of waiting I hop over my seat and walk through that aisle and walk through the door and into the chaotic hallway. Camellia Auston decided it would be fun to humiliate me. She had one of her pets, Krissie Paisley, stick her leg out in front of me. Of course I'm too busy to notice and when I do notice my books are already in the air. I fall on my face, no blood but probably a small bruise on my stomach. I get up and scramble to get all my papers.

After the hallway is almost empty and I have most of my papers I make my way to the end of the hallway and take a left towards the main stairs. I see Ryan going the other way and he stops me :

"Hey El. Where you hurrying to?" he asks obviously worried. I didn't tell him about my, plans... Oops... "Uh I got to go to my locker, left my, um, science books there." I say. "Oh I'll come with, maybe we can hang out today?" he suggests. "No! I have a doctor's appointment!" I say quickly and assertively "And if you don't mind I have to hurry because my mother is outside waiting for me. I'll text you later." I say and run off before he can question me anymore.

I run towards the stairs getting scolded for running. I apologize and walk to the stairs and hop down each quickly. I then take a swift left down the hall of lockers that is almost empty besides the Landari twins, Mrs. Dugle, some other stragglers and him by my locker. I slowly walk towards him taking him in.

His toned body leaning against the locker next to mine, his tan khaki shorts and his blue and white stripped shirt showing his muscles where the clothing ends, and his blue white fancy sneakers on. His dreamy blue eyes fixed on my plain brown ones. His dirty-blonde/light-brown hair shaved closely on the side of his head and the fluffy quiff part on top of his head. I try not to stumble remembering how I look.

I am wearing basically a crop-top metallica shirt with my light blue high waisted blue jean shorts mis-matched plain bright yellow and purple socks with my worn out gray nike sneakers with blue accents, not matching the blue in my navy glasses. Not to mention, this all looked a whole lot better in the changing rooms of Forever 21, and I now look terrible. As I arrive at my locker I say "Hi. Uh sorry for the wait, traffic and then Ryan stopped me, and all" I explain.

"No no its cool. My class is down the hall so it was pretty easy for me to get here." he says as I open my locker and throw my backpack inside. "So what is it you wanted to do?" I asked.

"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to walk around the trail and maybe go get ice cream afterwards?" he says "That would be lovely" I reply.
