This is really uncomfortable. Everytime I walk into this stupid room, I see Zeke and the rest of the in crowd sitting in the front of the room laughing out of control. The strange thing is Zeke always used to talk to me after school or at church. You know, come to think of it we used to be really close until we started tenth grade. All well. I walk to the back of the room and take my regular seat next to James and wait for Mrs. Silverston to call the class to attention. Mrs. Silverston has been my teacher for two years now and I really like her class. She is really laid back. I honestly don't think she has any rules for her class besides the ovious ones.

"Lisa, can you please join me in the hall for a minute." Mrs. Silverstone asks using her eyes to point out the dooor.

Is she asking me if i would like to or is she telling me I have to?

"Lisa, are you coming?"

I walk out to the hallway as everyone in the room starts making the stupid sounds, awww Lisa got in trouble, Lisa is a bad girl.

"I would like for to become a class leader. You are very good at working inspite of your feelings and I think you would be a great canadite for a student leadership role."Mrs. Silverstone says.

"I don,t think very many people would like the way I would lead. I mean I am a christian." I replied feeling as if she was trying to be funny or something. Like when teachers make a joke and you're just supposed to laugh.

"There is nothing wrong with being a christian and a student leader. In fact I find it awesome. Just think about it Lisa that's all i'm going to ask you. Thibk about all the oppurtunities you could have to share about God."

"You're joking right because in this school it's not cool to be a christian therefore being a christian leader would be a full time job of people tearing me down and right now that's not what I need."

As we walk back in the room Zeke walks up to me.

"I was wondering if after school we could grab some tb and then run into the church." Zeke says in a low tone as if he would not want to be caught asking me to hang out.

" I geuss that would be fine. I mean I was just going to grab my bags from my locker aqnd walk to the church anyways.

"Great! I will meet you by the green F150 after second bell."
