Song of the chapter //  youth by Daughter

After what seemed like 3 hours, I put my pencil in my bag, and walked towards the teacher.

"Thanks", was her response when I handed in my papers.

I walked out of the classroom and saw Clair waiting for me outside the door.

"Hey" I said guiding her to my locker. I put my things in my locker, feeling naked without my school bag.

Afterwards Clair and I walked to lunch, gossiping a little on the way. Once in the lunch-room

"Spicy chicken!" Clair ran off to the stand in line and wait for her lunch. Eliminating the option of spicy chicken since it made me 'fat'. I was satisfied with a simple turkey sandwich. I grabbed my lunch and sat down at our main table where I was regathered with my girls.

We didn't have much time to talk since they literally just gave us five minuets to eat when boys started rushing in and that was our signal to head out.

We grabbed our plates , dumped them and went outside.

We were walking to the field when I spotted Ezequiel  walking twords the cafeteria with his friends, some how he always attracts my attention. I made an effort to look away, only to be unsuccesful. He caught me looking at him.

"I'll catch up with you guys later " he told his friends.

"Hey vanessa " he casually said , hands in his pockets.

"Hi" I smiled shyly. " so umm , would you - , he was cut off by Mr.Hodges. 

"go to lunch" he told him. Ezequiel smiled at me, shrugged ,then went inside. I awkwardly turned around and walked over to my friends.

"Soo Vannessa " Clair teased while Paloma suggestivley wiggled her eyebrows, I felt my cheeks heat up so I just looked away. Leslie came up to me and wrapped her arm over my shoulder, "Hey baby where you come from? " she kissed my cheek and we bursted in laughter.

After some sociallizing, running, and playing around we started to head back in. We said our goodbyes giving eachother hugs since we had different classes. Clair and I walked together, our classes being close by.

We walked upstairs and started towards what we call 'our corner'. We interchanged hugs and greetings.

"Hey!" shouted Richy when he saw us , Ezequiel smiling behind him.

"Hey" we all responded.

"Are you gonna stay after school?" Richy asked Ezequiel, "Cant, sorry " was his response.

"Are you vanessa?", "Yeah, maybe." I told him. I liked staying after school, some friends and I meet at the back of the field and hang-out or usually most of them have a couple games of soccer untill our younger siblings got out of school. "shutting the door! " shouted my science teacher,

"Later" I said to my friends before I headed to class. I got to the almost closed door and realized I didnt have my book. "Umm, may I please go get my book? " I asked my teacher she scolded me.

"Hurry, you should've done that instead of talking," ignoring her request I walked to my locker and grabbed my bag and my book before going into home room.

After 30 minuets of reading, the students and I grabbed our bags and left.

Once outside I went to place my book back into my locker before walking towards my friends in the corner. When I got there the boys were arguing with the girls for some silly reason I couldnt quite capture. So I just silentley listened to whatever they were saying.
