The Walking Miles

Alert

My alarm sounds off at 5:00am every single day, terrible. I thought it was a normal school day where the jocks push around the other kids and brats talk bad about you. It wasn't like that. At all. Lets go to where it all started.

Ugh seriously 5am, lets do this again. I guess I will just wear these black ripped jeans and baby blue shirt, perfect. I guess I could sleep a little longer. I hopped back into bed and grabbed my phone, I opened my snap chat messages. *From Ari: Hey, excited to be back from spring break?!* *From Karsen: Got your tan on over spring break?* *From Eathan: Hey, can't wait to see you at school!* *From Cloud: Hey! See you later!* Whatever,  time to sleep for a little. I dozed off to sleep, forgetting to set a other alarm. Don't worry I got a backup though, my mom.

"Get your ass up the bus is here!" My mother hollered in a friendly manner, if that even makes since. I got up and grabbed my phone, 6:40am, ugh. Still way to early. I grabbed my backpack heading down the stairs and into the bus. As I entered I heard kids screaming and creating more drama already. I spotted a friend, Ari! "Hey, Ari!" I said passing the stinky younger kids. "Hey! Ready to go back?" She said with her new Calvin Klein backpack. "Yeah..." I said looking at my ripped up target backpack, yikes.

I looked out the window passing by all these houses till we came to our next stop, looking at the beautiful lake. The next person that came on was Eathan, my secret crush that only two people knew about, Karsen and Ari, hopefully they were the only to know. Once we finally arrived a few stops later to school I rushed passed the kids jumping out looking at the sign. Montgomery High School. Back to this place, ugh. I better walk to my first class history, Mrs. Bess, her class is so boring. I should head to my locker first.

As I went threw the hall I saw the freshman getting bullied and name called by seniors, classic, of course. The popular brats so not secretly gossiping about everyone walking by. Also while walking threw the hall I noticed a few people were off, some looked ill, maybe the spring air is getting to people. Don't really think it is anything. Oh there is my locker, 525. Okay, 17 then left to 0 then right to 35. Wouldn't budge. Tried again, wouldn't budge. I felt like people were watching me, I couldn't get this thing open!

"Need help with that?" Eathan said with a laugh. "Yeah... Kinda forgot how it works." I said with a slight laugh as I told him my locker combination. "There we go!" He said as he got it opened. "Thanks." I said grabbing a notebook and then closing my locker. I then headed to my class. 3rd row back. "Hey Heather!" My friend Lillian said as I lied down my backpack. "Hey, did you notice a few kids were acting strange today?" I said curiously tapping the desk. "I mean yeah, it was pretty strange now I think about it." She said with a nod.

Just then our teacher walked into class, she looked ill, her eyes were almost yellow, she looked a little pale, not like the usual. I gave Lillian the look of like what the hell is going on. "Maybe we should go to the quote on quote bathroom." Lillian whispered to me. "Agreed, lets ask." I said as a few more students entered class like Ari and Cloud. "Can Lillian and I go to the bathroom?" I asked tapping my leg. "No.." The teacher added with a slightly sick tone. "We are having lady issues." Lillian said making a ill face.

"Fine be... quick." The teacher added going to her desk distracted. "Come on." I said waving at Ari and Cloud. As we all exited the room we went to the girls room. "Wait." Cloud said as he stopped walking. "What?" Ari said opening the bathroom door. "I can't go in there!" He said pointing to the girls sign. "That doesn't matter, come on!" Lillian said dragging him in as we all entered. "I better not get in trouble for being in here." Cloud said looking to make sure no one else was in there. "Your fine." I added.

Over the speakers the principal started to speak. "We are now on lock down, stay in a locked room! I repeat we are now on lock down, stay in a locked room!" The principal said slightly panicked. "What is going on guys?" Lillian said slightly nervous. "Is there a robbery or shooting of some sort?" Cloud added. "I think it's much more than that." I said looking at the door. As I heard screams in the hall.
