Don't Fall for the Rival

Chapter 6

I woke up from a loud crash from downstairs as I groaned and looked at my alarm clock. It's only four in the morning, Who the hell is up at four in the morning. I mean Jim is but he's always quiet when he is getting ready for work. I got up when I heard another loud crash. I got dressed knowing whatever was going on, I was gonna be up. I grabbed a black tank top and a long leather jacket, along with some black pants. I quickly put them on and grabbed my shoes and my black bag as I ran down the stairs and looked out into the kitchen where i heard the loud crashes. But there in the kitchen was Arch who was stacking empty soda cans, where I don't know they got them from. "can you pass me my water?" I hear Arch ask as I hear someone kick up a water bottle and kicked straight for the cans as they fell all together making a loud thundering sound.

"Why?" I say as they all stopped and stared at me. "Maria!" They screamed as I watch them get up quickly and run out of the house. I hear Melinda come down staring at what was going on as I ran after them as I hear them yelling out in the streets. "Its four in the fucking morning!" I screamed as I see Shade jump over a neighbor's fence while Arch kept going down the street. I stopped to Crow climbing up on Rodrick's van as I slid up it and grabbed Crow's leg and pulled him off the van as he hit the trash cans which were on the side of the garage. I hear him groaned as I scoffed and slid down and ran down the street as I see Arch close to the high school.

I got closer and closer to Arch's heels as I grabbed his shirt and pulled him down as he groaned. "You are so dead..." I say as I grabbed him from the back of his shirt and pulled him to the flag pole. He knew what i was doing and he couldn't do anything. I grabbed the flagpole that held the flag and hooked it underneath his underwear and held him up. He struggled a bit to get a little comfortable as I pulled him up and tied up the rope and walked off.

I sat on the steps of the high school waiting for the teachers to arrive so I can grab my schedule and stuff like that. I was the new girl here and I only know a few people because of Rodrick. I finally see the teachers arrive as they passed the pole not thinking to look up to see a guy hanging there from a pole. Arch kept quiet as I walked in and followed the teachers until I saw the large glass container where the office staff was located. I walked in and asked for my schedule as they gave me my schedule and let me go.

I walked out and headed towards the cafeteria where I had found a small table. It was empty since students were starting to arrive. I mean this how it was when It was my first day as a sophomore at Schuyler high. I looked down at my hands as girls passed me and gave me weird looks as they passed me. Suddenly I see someone sit down across from me as they cleared their throats. I looked up and saw two individuals smiling at me. One was a male and another was a female.

"Hi there, I'm Kendrick Roustic, and this is Sally Lamark." Kendrick says as I smiled. "Hello, I'm Maria" I say as I shook their hands. "So I am guessing your new here?" Sally asks as I nod. "From Schuyler High, I just moved here on Saturday." I say as Sally gasped. "Schuyler High, like in Grandview?" she says as I widen my eyes. I would have thought it wouldn't have reached. That know one would hear about it, but I was wrong. Dead wrong.

"Yeah..." i looked down as the memories came crashing down once again as i shut my eyes tightly. 'Well welcome to our school and I hope we can make your year here safe." Kendrick says as I nod. I then hear footsteps coming towards the table as I felt arms wrap around me tightly. "Hey," i hear Rodrick's voice as I blushed at his entrance. "You know your friend is hanging up on a hook," Rodrick reminded me as I burst out laughing. "Good, has anyone else saw him?" I asked as Rodrick shrugs his shoulders and still kept his arms around me as I look up at Kendrick narrow his eyes while Sally blushed. "Maria....how do you know Rodrick here?" Kendrick asks as I blushed. "He kind of lives in my neighborhood..." I was then cut off by Rodrick as he spoke.
