It was Monday now and finally time for 6th period. I wasn't sure if I should try and talk to Luke or not. I don't really know why I wanted to so bad but I just couldn't stop thinking about it. He seemed like he hated me, why? Maybe it was just his personality. I didn't talk to him in Science because he sits all the way in the back. This time though he can't just run off. I decided to  go for it. I walked in and took my seat, shortly after Luke came in. After he sat down I looked at him and said "Hi.". All he did was nod. Yeah now i'm pretty sure he hates me. He has no reason to? 

The last 20 minutes of class our teacher made us work on this paper with a partner at our table. I said i'd work with Luke, that was a big mistake. I kept trying to talk to him, about the paper, and he acted like he didn't even pay attention to me. He would write down answers and I would copy or vise versa. Finally I gave in and said "Why don't you like me?" He looked at me with a blank expression. "I never said that." He didn't have to, I could obviously tell by his body language. "Well it sure does seem like it because you ignore me. I haven't done anything to you and i've hardly even spoken to you?" He looked back at me then back down at his paper and continued to work. I let out a deep breath and rolled my eyes. 

The bell rang and I packed my things. Luke stood up and started to walk out when he turned to me and said "I don't just hate you, i hate everyone." He turned around and slung his back pack over his shoulder continuing to walk out. Wow, that was harsh. He didn't even know me so he couldn't hate me. It would have been better if he said dislike or another word. Why hate? That was such a strong word. Obviously something has had to of happen to him in his past for him to be so dark and rude. I still haven't seen him smile or even laugh. I don't think he has any friends, still.  

After I got home I went to get a snack. When I walked into the kitchen I noticed a note lying on the counter. 

Working the night shift and dad is staying late at work. He'll be home around 12, here's money to order pizza. I love you. - Mom

I was used to this. They always have to work late at least three times a week so I was stuck at home doing nothing. I went up stairs to my room and did my home work then laid down to watch tv, dozing off into a nap.

I woke up when I heard my phone ringing. It was Hailey. She always assumed I liked talking on the phone because she did. I didn't though, I hated it. But I decided to answer anyway to see what she wanted. 

"Hello?" I said, sitting up on my bed. 

"Whatcha doin!" Hailey said all happily. I hope she doesn't want me to go somewhere because I knew Michael would go and I didn't' feel like third wheeling today.

"Just laying in bed. I was sleeping until you woke me up, thanks." I said laughing so she knew I wasn't really mad. I needed to wake up anyway.

"Whoops sorry," She said laughing. "I was wondering if you wanted to go eat with me and Michael in about 30 minutes?" I had a feeling she was going to ask for me to go somewhere. 

"Uh, no thanks! I'm about to head out and get me some quick dinner then come back here. But you two have fun!" I was planning on going to down town and grab something to eat at my favorite  restaurant. My mom left me 20 dollars which was plenty. Plus I had my own money from working at my dad's job. I will probably shop around a little too. Hailey and I said bye and hung up. I got up to make sure my appearance was okay enough to go out and it was except I need to fix my hair. After I was ready I got in my car and drove to the restaurant. I didn't mind eating a lone because I usually just looked on my phone or something. After I ate I decided to go shop now. I left my car where it was because there is too many people in the city to drive around just to shop. I would be fine walking. Forever21 was around the corner so I decided to go there first. As I was walking I noticed familiar head up in front of me a bit. It was Luke. Maybe I could talk to him now. I don't know why but I didn't like the idea of him hating me. Maybe I could crack him and show him I was willing to be a friend. He just seemed to stubborn though. Should I really do this? 

"Hey Luke!" I called out as I was getting closer to him. He turned around and looked at me with the blank expression he always wore and said "Oh, it's you.  Katrina, right?" continuing to walk at a fast pace. I finally caught up to him. At least he didn't ignore me this time or reply with just on word. "Why are you walking so fast?" I asked as I was trying to keep up my pace started to get out of breath. "Why are you talking to me?" He said back kind of harsh. I knew I shouldn't of gone up to him. Too late now. "Why are you so rude and always in a bad mood?" I asked. He stopped walking and turned around to look at me. "I already told you, I hate people." He said. I was trying to catch my breath and when I finally got it I said "You don't even know me though." This made me mad how he hated me but he didn't even know me, he only knew my name. 

"I don't have to though, I can already tell I wouldn't like you. You're one of those popular people who thinks they're better than everyone else because you have a nice car and you're rich."  He said. I was now furious because this wasn't correct. Sure I have a nice car and my parent do have money but I do not think that I am better than everyone else. "No I don not! You can't make all these assumptions about me when you don't even know me." I said back. He didn't say anything. All he did was stand up and turn around to continue walking. Before I could stop myself I grabbed his arm and pulled him around and said "Hangout with me and I will show you I am not how you think I am." 

Damnnit Kat! Why did I just say that. I didn't want anything to do with him but at the same time I did. I have no idea why. He stood there for a minute I guess trying to decide on his answer when finally he said "Fine. Just for a little bit though." I smiled, I'm not sure why, and said "Okay! What do you want to do?" 

"I don't know. You're the one who wanted to hangout." He rolled his eyes. He was so annoying already. Why did I have to suggest this? "Um, do you like coffee?" I figured maybe coffee would be a good place to go and maybe I could get him to talk to me. "Sure." Is all he said. I wasn't sure if he was just saying this or if he actually did, so I said "Okay so lets go to this coffe shop down the road." I turned and started walking. I looked over my shoulder to make sure he was following and he was. We didn't talk while walking there, I hope it wouldn't be like this at the coffe shop. We got there and ordered our coffee. After we got out we went and sat down at an empty table.

I really hope he's gonna talk.
