Once in a lifetime ;
Senior year is always the best year, huh? I don't think that's my case considering I have no stable friends, and once I get close to someone, my mom decides we have to move and I have to meet new friends, and for the next year, get them taken away from me all over again.
The process gets tiring. I don't even put any effort into making friends anymore, and I kinda like being alone by now. Out of all the years, I can tell this one is gonna suck even more though, cause' I actually liked the friends I made this year that passed, Frank & Aaron. Aaron was gay and had a crush on Frank, but frank would always tell him he was straight and that he had this thing for this girl, I would then give him a wolf whistle and we'd end up laughing together. Isabel, Frank & Aaron. I never wanted that to change. I did have a girl best friend, but she betrayed me and I don't like talking about it, but it doesn't even matter cause' Frank & Aaron give warmer hugs and have much better gossip than any girls.
My friendship with Aaron is much closer though, considering he's gay and likes talking about the things I do more than Frank. I used to be closer to Frank but at my seventeenth birthday party he kissed me and things just got sorta awkward. He asked me out on monday at school and it broke my heart having to say no, but I didn't feel and still don't feel anything except friendship for him. We didn't talk for about a week but then he apologized and we hugged it out, Aaron kept saying that if it was him he would've said yes and fucked him, but Aaron is a horny dumbass.
It's 6:00 am, right now I make my way to the car, as I wipe some tears off my eyes, I don't want to go to school. As I enter the car, I stand there in silence but get a heart attack as soon as someone knocks on the car window. I turn to my right and see a smiling Aaron standing there with a small poster in his hands and frank standing there next to him.
I get out of the car, and hug them both as I grab the sign. "We love you Izzy!" The sign read, as some tears slipped from my eyes, I personally give Aaron a hug, and then a kiss on the cheek. I back away from the hug and make my way to frank, I jump, rapping my arms around his neck and him around my waist taking in the hug as well. I back my head away from the nook of his neck to give him a small kiss on the cheek, and I see some tears spilling from his eyes, and then I feel someone hug me from behind, as I turn around I see Aaron behind me, crying as well.
Once I'm in the car, I don't even bother to start a conversation with my mom, I simply look out the window and count the palm trees. She tries to talk to me about him and how everything's gonna be alright, but I cover my ears and scream until she understands, and stays quiet. Once we get to the shitty school I get off the car, and simply look down at my shoes, my black converse shining at the sun that's coming down on them. My grandma was taking my brother and sister to their school, and I just had to get stuck with my mom.
I look up at the school, and read the words "Santa Cruz High". I make my way to the office, behind my mom. We walk in and my mom gives the lady a warming smile that she returns. After about an hour of my mom signing and writing stuff on a bunch of white pieces of paper, the lady comes out from behind her desk, and gives me that same warm smile, gesturing me to follow her, which I do, but first I get pulled back by my mom, who hugs me and gives me twenty dollars. I groan but hug her, and follow the lady, who is probably in her late fifties. We pass a bunch of classrooms, but finally stop at one.
She gestures me to come inside, and I do, following her obviously, me fixing my backpack and hair. She talks to the teacher, and the teacher gives me a small smile, and walks over to me as the other lady walks out. She welcomes me to the class, and makes them clap their hands to me, she says it's a "welcoming clap", which I furrow my eyebrows to, and the class laughs.
