Too Different?

 Knock Knock Knock!  I heard the door bang as I ate breakfast.

"Who's there?" I yelled putting my dishes in the sink. 

"Justin!" He replied. What did he want? I felt suspicious.

"What do you want?" I asked opening the door.

"I had a feeling you needed a ride, and since I knew where you lived I decided to stop  by and well... ask." He grinned, it was annoying. Justin was already here and I did need a ride, so I reluctantly went with him.

"Justin honey! Hi!" I heard Ginger's voice. As she approached, I left the car and walked into the school.

"Hassle Hassle Hassle..." I wrote down in my notebook and sighed.

"What's up with the sigh?" Summer asked. "And what's a hassle?" She peered into my notebook again.

"I-it's just that-" I tried to make an excuse. I closed my notebook tight. "It's always so annoying to wake up Friday mornings, you know cause Fridays are so slow sometimes." I lied.

Summer looked at me suspicious then trotted down the hallway to bother Hunter. My first class was English, the class I enjoyed the most. It was a shame I couldn't have that class all day.

"Hey Luze!" I heard Justin's voice from behind me. Annoyed, I turned around.

"Don't talk to me like we're friends." I said to him.

"But... we are friends?" He looked at me confused. I wasn't in the mood for continuing our talk so I just walked away. I sat in my seat for English and waited for the day to end. Or at least for lunch time to come faster.

"I can't wait for today to be done." I sighed to myself while walking to the cafeteria. I used the back side to get into the cafeteria, it was barely used and closest to our table.

"Hey Luze Lu! What's with the long face?" Justin walked up to me. I ignored him.

"Little luce. Don't ignore me." Justin continued to bother me.

"Watch out." I said, I confused him. After saying that, he slipped in a puddle of water.

"I told you to watch out." I chuckled, I've never seen anyone taller than me fall in a long time.

"Aw man! My pants are wet!" He complained standing up, I burst into laughter.

"Luze! It's not funny!" He looked at the back of his pants. "It looks like I  peed myself!" Justin whined. My stomach began to hurt from all of the laughing.

"Here, come with me. I'll help you." I held out my hand to Justin. I couldn't just let him look foolish for the rest of the day, even if we weren't that close.

"Where are we going?" He grabbed my hand.

"Just follow before everyone comes down this hall." I led him to the old science room.

"The teacher always had jeans in here. What's your size?" I asked, I started to giggle again reminding myself of what just happened.

"I'll just jam these ones on. Don't look." He said as he grabbed the jeans in front of me. I didn't understand why he said 'don't look' even though he was already in his underwear.

"Oh yeah, you know what's strange," I began talking, Justin looked at me. "How come you play football but your hand's so soft?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Aww, you like holding my hand?" He laughed.

"I don't like holding hands with teens that pee their pants." I stuck out my tongue.

"You know that was water!" I could tell he was embarrassed, it only made me laugh more.

"Right. Right. Oh yeah, why'd you really come get me this morning?" I asked him another question.

"Well, I just assumed yesterday you had no car, so I thought it would be fun to ride to school with you." He answered, it made me question how long it took to put on pants.

"Yeah, but why me?" I was curious.

"Oh that's 'cause Luze-" Justin spoke but the bell ring.

"How are we late for lunch?" I started laughing.

"I guess it's 'cause I spent too long putting these pants on." Justin laughed.

"So what now? I'm hungry and we get detention for being late." I didn't want a detention.

"Well, I could always drive around the corner and get us tacos. Is that okay?" Justin asked.

"If you want to?" I wasn't sure what he was planning.

"Alright, then wait here. I'll be back." Justin left the room.

 Was he serious about driving off somewhere and getting us tacos? It was weird but it didn't bother me, I was hungry after all.

"I'm back!" Justin walked back into the science room. We had about twenty minutes of lunch left.

"That took a while." I said.

"But I still got tacos." He held out the bag. It said Dave's Mini Tacos.

"What's this place?" I asked, I grinned at the name.

"That was my reaction. But its a cool place." Justin began speaking.

 Before I knew it, I spent my entire lunch time with a Pop. I also spent it laughing and not disliking it.

"I wonder why?" I asked myself.
