Freshman Year

Chapter Fourteen

 I didn't even go to my locker. I went straight to my first hour. I thought it over and, I don't have time for her today.

Now that it's 4th hour, everything is going fine. I found my classes, answer a few questions, and I didn't fall.

I walked in my 4th hour, forgetting that Kendrick, Davion, and the boy who kept following me is in this class.

They all were starring at me. I'm glad Mrs. Harris let me pick my own seat. I sit in the front, they both sit next to each other in the back, all of the way in back.

Ding! The bell rung.

"Good afternoon class! Since it's only the 2nd day of school, we're not going to do anything until next week. So, today you can talk among yourselves, move around desks, or play on your phones. It doesn't matter to me." Mrs. Harris said, as she sat at her desk.

Everybody that knew each other started moving their desks around. But other quiet and antisocial people, like me, just stayed at our own desks, waiting until the bell ring for lunch.

I put in my headphones and blocked out all the friendliness. Soon when one of my favorite songs came on, here comes Kendrick. He stood by my desk, staring at me.

"Are you just going to stand there looking like a creep?" I said pretty loud because the music was loud in my headphones.

He took my phone and paused the song. "Shh, you're too loud."

"Well, what do you want? Sit down at least, don't stand over me."

"I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I seen that I scared you away yesterday and... I'm just sorry." he said, sitting down.

I chuckled a little. "It's fine."

That was cute, he was being a gentlemen. He owned up to his mistakes. That literally made my day, made me forget the conversation I had with Granny this morning.

"I want to start over with you Camryn. If that's okay I with you."

I felt myself smiling. "Sure."

He turned around, took a deep breath, turned back around to me and said, "Hello, I'm Kendrick Roberts. What's your name?"

I tried so hard not to laugh. "Hi, I'm Camryn Willis." I said reaching out for a handshake.

"Nice to meet you Camryn. You are very pretty." he said, taking my hand.

"Thanks. You're handsome."

We talked all the way up until the bell rang for lunch. He has 2 older brothers and a little sister, her name is Marie and she's only 3 months.

"So. Who are you going to sit with at lunch?" Kendrick asked, as he followed me to my locker.

"Um, I don't know. I skipped lunch yesterday."

"Sit with me."

I started to blush. "Okay, I have to get something out of my locker."

When I unlocked my locker, a note fell out from, guess who. I forgot this was my first time going to my locker today. I didn't see her all day today.

The note said:

It seems like your ignoring me. You didn't even let me explain myself. Hopefully you'll talk to me in 6th hour. I'm not being thirsty, I just want you to hear my side of the story. <3 Anaa

She's being thirsty a little bit. I thought.
