"And she just ran?"

"Like the wind"

"Will you two shut up" Nova snapped at the gossiping girls. "Geez" She had been hearing everyone talk about what Juliet did at the game. She didn't want to think about that day too much. Not because of what Juliet did, that was awesome, but because of the stupid P.E incident.

It was second period english and people began to flood the classroom. Juliet came in with her head down and quickly sat own.

James looked at her.

"Nice"

Nova shot him a glare that basically told him to shut up

Nova shot him a glare that basically told him to shut up. But this was James so he didn't get the message.

"Oh man the way you flung that around" He excitedly began, twirling imaginary underwear in his hands. Charlie came and sat down after, with a gloomy look on his face, he didn't acknowledge Juliet at all.

Seconds before the bell came in Liam, with his usual bored look and saluted Ms.Kay then gave her a wink.

Gaining him a skeptical look from Nova.

"Because, I had enough. I took Nova's word and stopped running away."

"Ok....so you took her underwear?" he said with a confused look, I remained quiet as he continued.

"Not only is that unsanitary, but it's stupid! And you were also running away with her underwear!" I looked back down at my salad and thought back to last night.

I sat by myself, waiting for Nova to finish picking up trash. People started to line up the silver bleachers as my breathing became a little more heavier. I tried to do a breathing exercise but that didn't work so i just sat there trying to be unemotional.
