Ferris and I walked off in different directions. He went off to Junior Honors English as i went to Sophmore Geometry. That's just another downside to being gone for five years! Techniacally yor little brother is older than you. You see when your dead and you awake you tend to notice that you don't age. I was fifteen the day I died and I awoke to be the same exact age meeting my young but seventeen year old brother. Finally after two months, I actually aged. I'm now sixteen, but still a year younger than my brother. It's weird because i was born first but he passed me up. oh yeah, It's possible.
"Hayley," a voice from down the hall caught my attention. Turning around m eyes ventured towards a boy running down the halls. Oh no! Not this kid again. This curly head cutie named Noah keeps trying to talk to me. He's such a flirt, but he's one of those kids everyone would call the loser. Don't get me wrong he is one of the sweetest kids ever, but I can't get close to anyone. Even as a friend because I don't know how long I'll be around this dump. Finally he caught up to me. "How about I walk you to class?"
I nodded my head slowly hoping he's see how little interest I have in him. "I guess. We are going to the same place." My reply had an annoyance deamnor and all I could do was hope that he caught on. But he is so oblivious to everything else, but what's in his mind. the whole time we were walking in silence he stared at me. He was making me feel uncomfortable so I crossed my arms across my chest and he quickly looked down when he noticed. What a perv! "I'm sorry, is there something you partically want from me?"
He looked back up at me skaing his head as he though, "No, nothing. Why? is there something you want me to ask you?" He asked a little bit to excited. I rolled my eyes shaking my head. "Are you sure? Because there is this dance coming up and"
I stopped him right there, "I know about the dance, and I'm not going." He sighed frowning and looking down. A little guilt rushed through me. I guess that was little too harsh on the guy.
"Your are always isolating yourself from the rest of society."
"Well," I shrugged. "maybe the rest of the society doesn't like me."
"I like you," He stopped waiting for me to realize what he had meant. Finally I stopped walking and turned around to face him shyly staring at me with one of his hands rubbing against the back of his neck. I smiled a little bit but awkwardly trying to think of something to say. I neede something that would get me out of this situation where usually the girl ends up going out with the guy.
"Thanks," It was all I could think of. SO I paused to clear my throat and repeat, "Thanks Noah, but you don't really count." He nodded his head understanding sadly, and the guilt was back. It was a pretty harsh rejection, but I can't feel bad for him. I continued walking leaving him there as I turned into the next classroom.
I sat in my usual seat; far in the back as possible. Mrs. Walker was in the front writing stuff on the board. After a few minutes the bell ran and in flooded all of the students who usually ignored me, soon followed by Noah.
