"Hello? Helllooo?" he said waving his hands side to side, waking me from my day dream of him and I prancing around a meadow holding hands and laughing together... I know, cliche.
"I'm sorry, what did you say? I kind of blanked out after you said the first sentence.........crap!" God! Could I be any more obvious!
He laughed playfully and I melted inside.
"I asked what your name is."
"Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Miranda." I barely got the words out of my mouth.
There was a silence that seemed to last minutes when we starred into each others eyes. Then I snapped out of my trans when I heard Tristen say....
"And my name is Tristen. Nice to meet you Brian. "
We had only been looking into each others eyes for two seconds, but it felt like forever.
"Uh, hi Tristen." Brian said in an annoyed tone that was so obvious. Could he have been upset that Tristen had interrupted our conversation, even though it only lasted around ten seconds.
"Hey, I think you're in my English class. Do you have Ms. Gobel for first period?" Tristen was trying to start a conversation with a guy who clearly did not want to talk to him.
"Uh, yeah. I guess I have you for two classes now. Unless you end up being in my 6th period also."
"Wouldn't that be cool, we'd have more time to get to know each other and be buds."
"Yeah.....that would be great." By then, I knew for a fact Brian was annoyed. I wonder if it was because he didn't like that Tristen had interrupted us or if he just thought Tristen was straight up annoying.
"So Miranda, what's your class schedule?" Brian asked cheerfully, completely changing his mood.
"Ummmm, I haven't exactly memorized it yet but here. You can see it." I handed him the paper with my schedule on it. He examined it for a while and then passed it back to me.
"It sucks that we only have this class together. "
"Can I see your schedule?" I asked and he gave me the paper with his schedule on it. I memorized his classes before I did mine.
1st period: English 9 with Ms. Gobel
2nd period: Algebra 2 with Mr. Akachuko
3rd period: Intro to Computers with Scott
4th period: Spanish 1 with Ms. Barendes
5th period: Biology with Ms. Cho
and finally, 6th period: P.E. with Mrs. Rosa
....its not creepy, I swear.
"Yeah, we don't have any other classes together. It does suck." I pushed my lips to one side as a sign of resentment.
And then i heard Tristen.... again. "Aw man, it looks like you and I only have this class together too, Miranda. I turned around to find that he had taken the paper with my schedule on it and had looked at my classes. Its kind of creepy because I don't remember giving him permission to grab it, or him asking me if he could.
I took the paper back delicately, I didn't just snatch it because I didn't want to be rude. Plus, I wouldn't want Brian to think that I'm violent or aggressive, even though I can be at times.
"I guess not, Tris."
"Aw, she called me Tris. She already has a pet name for me." He said, mostly directed to Brian.
Brian looked angry and disappointed at the same time and I didn't like it so I decided to tell Tristen to talk to other people for the moment.
"I just want to make friends and you're already my friend so I'd like to focus on him for a while, okay? "
"Sure" Wow, that wasn't too bad. He turned away and started to introduce himself to the girl to his right and I turned back to Brian.
"Sorry abo"-
and right when I was going to apologize for the inconvenience that was Tristen, the bell rang.
"Um, it's cool. We can talk tomorrow....hopefully there won't be any distractions. Well anyways, I got to go find the gym."
"Oh, it's straight down this hall, last door to your right. I was just there last period."
"Thanks Miranda. Uh, talk to you tomorrow then?"
"Definitely!" I couldn't hide my excitement. I couldn't believe that he still wanted to talk to me. I honestly thought Tristen ruined it for me.
I guess he just ruined today.
Well, I have bigger problems to worry about. Where the heck is room B5 ?
Oh well, I guess I'm going to be late for my next class.
I don't think it will matter, if anything, it will benefit me because its my English 9 class and I HATE english. At least I know what I'll be doing. Day dreaming about tomorrow.....
