A Second Chance at Life

chapter 4

Sorry this chapter is short, but it's kind of a filler chapter. The action will be next chapter. I've got to bolt because I'm in Spanish class, and not doing what I'm supposed to.

 Jason *POV*

I was at lunch, just chewing at my food when Claire sat in the seat next to me. "Hey boo boo bear." Claire cooed. I mentally rolled my eyes. What was up with this chick, and pet names. Soon after Claire was her Posse. Auden, Mia, and Beth, they were all major brats. I mean I don't know why she hangs out with them. 

"Have you seen the new girl?" Auden said taking a bite of her salad.

"Yea Arin what's her name."    Mia said sarcastically.

"Her last names,  Arin Ella Rose." Beth said, I swear she was so stupid.

"That wasn't a question beth!" Mia snapped. It soon turned into an argument, that Claire broke up.

"Ladies calm down. Leave Arin alone, she has star potential, I want you to gather as much info on her as possible. I plan to make her one of us."

Mia, Beth, and Auden gasped, "You're kidding right, the group is closed no one can join." Claire sent her a glare, and she shut up, and looked down. Her cheeks a slight shade of red from embarrasement.

I'd heard enough, I threw away my lunch, and walked off away from them.

Arin's Pov

Seventh hour came way too slowly. I sighed as I entered the choir room, the last thing I wanted to do was sing. I was certain the teacher was going to make me introduce myself. Boy was I wrong, "Your late Ms. De La Rosa, please take  that empty seat next to Jason." He didn't look up from his book, he just pointed to the seat. I gulped, this was going to be a tough class.

   I noticed Claire was in this class, I groaned, gosh that girl wouldn't leave me alone. She was always in my face, she wasn't being rude, or mean, just there. She was in like five of my classes already.  I plopped down in the seat, and opened my notebook.

"So you must be the famous Arin Ella Rosa?" The guy Jason asked.  I didn't look up, but said in a quiet whisper, "It's De la Rosa."  The guy seemed to have tensed up, I could feel his eyes on me. I looked up, and almost got lost in his greenish blue eyes. "Do I know.." I wasn't able to finish my sentence.  "Arin, Jason detetion! After school today," Jason opened his mouth to protest, "argue, and it'll be two detentions." Jason closed it.

I had a sense of what my mom called De ja vu. Isn't it funny how a day can start the same way, and end the same way. To heck with bad days, to heck with this world. Jason didn't talk to me again throughout the whole class. As much as I hated to say it, I wish he would say something.  I sighed as the bell rung, and he said nothing. I texted Zoe that I had detention, I didn't want her to walk alone, but I guess she would have to.
