                            That morning I got ready for school. I roar something fancy since it was the last day of school. I wanted to walk to school so I could clear my head of everything that has happened to me this year. But I all I could think of was Cierra.

                       The first part of school was pretty boring. We didn't have to lean anything so we just around and talked to each other. I also talked to a girl that liked me, but not anymore. We had this really long conversation and then she asked, " Who do you like?" I told, "I like Cierra. Who do you like?" Right when I said Cierra she got up and didn't even hear the rest. She came back with a little bit a tears in her eyes and then she told me that she liked me. I felt bad but I told her that we can still be friends and she was happier than before.

                                 Then our class went to a ceremony for those 5th graders that were going to the middle school. A lot of my friends were going along with Cierra. As I watched everyone who I knew go down the isal, I watched for when Cierra would go. When she walked down the isal, my eyes got a little watery, but just a little. Some of the kids gave speeches, but Cierra wasn't one of them. after the ceremony Cierra went to her dad. I was going to talk to her, but I just couldn't yet.

                                  We all went back to class and talk some more. At ressce I went to talk to Cierra. I ask her, " Cierra, I need to ask you something." "Okay?" She said," What do you need to ask me?"     "Who do you like?" I asked. I waited for her response. Then she said," I like someone at another school." She said that with a really unsure voice, but I took it to heart I thought I died. Her friend Tina, who hates me and I hate her, whispered something in Cierra's ear. Tyler also came to accompany me. He and I were just waiting for Tina to stop whispering in Cierra's ear. When she finally finished Cierra said, " His name is John and you don't know him." I knew she was lieing, but I let it get to me. "What school does he go to then?" Tyler said. Before Cierra could answer I just walked away. Tyler followed me, but I didn't talk or say anything but, " I know she's lieing."

                                   The rest of the day was in five minutes so I got all the stuff that I was going to take with me. When I was finished I just sat in a random set, because we could, and waited for the teacher to dismiss us. "Alright class," she said," You can all go and enjoy your summer vacation!" I was the last one to get out of the class room because I didn't want to die the last day of school.

                                  As I walked out, I saw Cierra. She was crying because she was leaving the school. So when the crowd around her went mostly away I talked to her, alone. "Hey Cierra. Look I know your bummed out an all that your leaving but I need to tell you something." "Well I can't talk right now my dad is here to pick me up. I have to go bye." I stood there and then said," Wait! I just have to say..... Bye. I hope you have fun a middle school."  With that said, she gave me a hug, I hugged her back, and she said, " I'll miss you, but this is good bye for now." She ran to her dad and that was the last time I saw her. She was..... The one that got away.
