If What We Had Was Real, How Could You Be Fine?

Chapter 6- First Day of High School

The week went by so fast,and I mean Marisa and I kept our daily texting and well last thing I know it was already the first day of school. The night before, i felt the excitement rushing inside me and just feeling so anxious! I mean yeah it was the first day of high school but what I was really excited and anxious about was seeing her! I mean we really never talked in person it was all text during summer so I mean is it gonna be awkward? Or are we gonna even talk? All this questions running through my head, unable to fall asleep.

BAM! There goes my alarm at 5:00am, with my hair everywhere and my faced kinda confused because I mean its been all summer with out an annoying loud noise waking me up. But what ever I get up, pick something nice to wear and I mean i wasnt that girly at that time so it was just like yeah pick something random "nice" and brush my hair a little and brush my teeth and walk out the door to my bus stop. While walking to my bus stop Im shaking and my hands are sweating. From far away I see all this other kids waiting also for the bus. Right away getting to the bus stop I see a few of my friends like always we hugged and all those "how was your summer" questions But to be honest I wouldnt even go along with the conversation. I kept zoning out cuz there was more things for me to be worrying about like where am I gonna see it? When? Do I hug her? What do I? Who is she gonna be with? Is she in any of my classes? Once again questions running through my head and meanwhile there was the bus coming around the corner, everyone gathers around to get in first. At this point with this anxiety level I was in I didnt care who I sat with.

It's the first day of school and we got to school about an hour early which sucks. The deans at school sent us to the cafeteria and told us we would be waiting there until class started which was at 7:39 am. It's just 6:40 am. The whole full hour I just sat in one of the tables with my friends. I was just waiting for her to walk in the doors. I kept looking through the big windows that surround half the cafeteria. But she was no where to be seen. Time went by so slow and I kept looking at the clock waiting to see when she will get there.

7:26.... and there she was !! Getting off the car, walking in with her sister.

My hands are sweaty, my leg is shaking, and my heart is about to explode of how hard and fast is beating. I try to act casual even though I don't think it's possible in any kind of way. I get up my seat and walk to her.. well them, her and her sister, liz, but mostly her. On my way to where they are at which is I believe Marisa's locker, I'm thinking on what to say. I decide to just say hi and see where that leads. So here I go... walking.. shaking... breathing heavily.... hoping my heart doesn't stop... and "Hiii" I say with a big smile, I felt myself blushing which was kind of awkward and I also have this thing that when I'm embarrassed my eyes get watery so there goes my awkward face.

To be honest I was scared of her sister Liz because she was a senior and I don't know I just really don't know her and I'm hoping she likes me.

"Hii" they both said back with a smile. I had to calm myself down big time! They both seem pretty chill, well marisa not really she seemed a little nervous. We decided to look at each others schedule and it turns out we have our first period class together. That made me felt happy like man first day of school will be great! The only thing that blew me off was the the fact that we got to school and hour early but other than that it started off awesome! Starting my day seeing her. I still don't know why I get so excited and nervous though. She is just my friend but well we walked together to our first period class, spanish, alot of my friends are in that class but again I was just focusing on her, I asked her where she wanted to sit and she picked to seats in the back close to the door. We really didn't have much to talk about it was just simple questions that we would ask to each other like "how was your summer? " or simple comments from me like "your sister is cool" after interacting with each other our Spanish teacher was telling us how the year will go by with his curriculum, he was really funny and nice. The bell rang and we got out the door as we walked out I asked Marisa what her next class is and she says "biology" the halls get crowded and we just lose each other she goes one way I go the other. The whole day when by and I didn't see her again until gym which turns out she changed her schedule and got gym same period as me. Again I felt like this year would be awesome!! Although she at first didn't notice we where in the same class and I didn't either so we didn't get our gym locker next to each other but it's okay we still had the same teacher. We really didn't have much to talk about but it wasn't awkward it actually felt nice. The teacher again just like other teachers told us about all the activities we would be doing and all. Class ended and she went to English and I had to go to lunch and again I didn't see her at all not even in the hallways. At the end of the day as I walked outside to catch my bus I see her and her sister in her locker. I decide to stop by and her sister asked me "how was your day?" With a smile looking like she was some what excited to hear about my first day as a freshman in high school but all I said was "it was pretty cool" I actually couldn't stay and talk because I had to catch my bus so I said bye to them and as they replied I walked away. I'm thinking to myself 'it was a good day, I finally saw her and will see her from now on' my smile couldn't go away.

My bus was already there so I got on and went home.

Right away while getting on the bus I took my phone out and texted her "hi(: "

Maybe a little to much obsession over her but it made me happy talking to her. And it was less awkward talking through text massages than face to face.

I got home and no one was there so I went to my room and laid down and there went my whole afternoon talking to her about the most random things till we said good night. Texting each other became like a part of our lifes.
