EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED!

chapter 10

Andrea and I arrived at sewing class. Here I'll walk you in. Andrea said. Ok thanks I said. Andrea knocked on the door Good Morning Mrs. Diaz. She said. Good morning sweetheart she said in her Hispanic accent. I got to go. See you around Skylar. She gave me her phone number. Text me later and I'll meet you somewhere to finish the tour. Ok thanks I said. I gave her my number back. Mrs. Diaz was a short older woman around 70 years old. With brown short, curly hair and she wore round glasses. Who is this young lady she said pointing at me. Hello Mrs. Diaz. I said smiling. I'm Skylar Reynolds your new student for sewing. I have you first period this morning. Oh that's right I heard something about a new student. It's wonderful to meet you she said smiling and shaking my hand. You too I said shaking her hand back. You can sit anywhere you like. Okay thank you I said. She smiled at me. I'll put my name in the corner of the board so you can get familiar with it she said. Ok great I said. This period we'll be learning how to make pillows she said. Sounds fun I said. Have you ever sewn anything before she asked. I thought to myself, Um, well there was this one time when a sewed a rip in a blanket. Nice she said. Did you succeed she asked giggling a little. Yes.I did actually. I giggled. Great job she said laughing. Well class will be starting in 2 mins so you can sit down if you like and read a book. Or, what I let my students do if they come early is they can draw or write on the board. Okay I said.  Do whatever she said. Make yourself feel at home. Thank you I said. I took out my book "The Giver" by Lois Lowry. Before I knew it the bell had rang. I put my book away. A bunch of  kids walked in. Some girl wearing a short pink skirt with a matching pink sweatjacket, white kneehocks paired with some hightop wedges.  Underneath she wore a white tank that said Pink on it. With blonde hair in two pigtails but half up like it was in a clip. She sat down next to me. I smiled at her. She smiled back. So, are you the new girl? She said taking a nail file out of her duffle bag. Yeah. I'm Skylar by the way. I'm Tiffany she said. Nice to meet you I said sticking out my hand for her to shake. You too she said but I don't shake hands I give hugs. Thanks I said hugging her back. So, anyway she said putting her nail file down and taking out her phone make any new friends? Yeah, I made a few I said. She clicked on snapchat and started doing streaks. Then she recorded her class and started making them do weird stuff for her story. Oh snapchat I said trying to make casual conversation. I have that. Cool she said What's your user? We exchanged numbers and followed each other on snapchat. Mrs. Diaz rang her bell and told us to quiet down for class to begin. We calmed down. Good morning class she said. Today we have a new student. Her name is Skylar Reynolds. Skylar please stand up she said. Can you tell us some things about you. Well, I said my dad's in the army. I'm a freshmen. I like to read and listen to music. Everyone clapped and I sat down. Good job Skylar. Ok now everyone please get in your groups. I got up and walked around. Hey I said to the girl with the blonde hair, can we be partners? Yeah sure why not she said smiling. Class remember we  are making pillows this week. Mrs. Diaz said. Ready to make some pillows Tiffany asked. I sure am. I actually can't wait for sewing class it seems fun. It is really fun she told me. We figured out what design we would be putting on the pillow and what color threads and yarn we would be using. The Bell rang. I walked out with Tiffany. Nice seeing you she said. You too. She gave me the peace sign and I gave it back. I started walking to my locker. I took out my phone and checked my messages. This boy bumped into me and all my books went flying everywhere. Oh my gosh I'm so sorry he said. He helped me pick up everything. Its no biggie I said trying to sound cute. I had no idea what he looked like because we were both on the floor picking up my books. When I stood up and looked up it was the boy that delivered the pizza to my house. Sorry I said I'm such a clutz. Shit I said in my mind. Making a complete idiot out of myself must be something I  do best. Hey your that girl I delivered pizza to. Yeah I said smiling I remember. So how's your first day been. I thought to myself he actually remembers that I told  him? Holy crap. It's been pretty good so far. I said smiling. Yo, he said I am so sorry I dropped all your books. It's fine. Don't worry about it. I said. I'm in a blame for it to. Hey he said, would you like to come with me after school to go get some fro yo?I can drive you home? What the freaking cupcakes I thought. I literally almost said,  me with you? Sure I said. That would be great. I said probably blushing. Well here's my number he said. I'll call you and meet you outside after classes are done. Ok thanks. Here's my number too I said. See you later. Bye he said. Bye I said. I dialed my mom, Hi mom. Hi sweetie how is your first day so far. It's great. I made some friends. Nice she said. That is so wonderful. Hey, is it ok if I go after school for some fro yo?I don't mind. She said are you going with anyone she asked. Yeah this boy asked and he said he can drive me home. Ooh she said. You got a boyfriend. No I said laughing. He's the guy that delivered our. pizza. And don't worry he's only a sophomore. Ok then I don't see why not. Have fun baby girl. Thanks mom love you. Love you too enjoy the rest of your day. I'll try to make the most of it. Ok bye love. Bye ma.I have a date I said to myself. I can't wait. Yay. This is going to be great I said.
