AMANDA
The alarm-clock goes off sending a loud buzz throughout my house and as I reach for the clock my fingers slip and come crashing down onto the bed. Once I finally manage to get up my entire body is numb and asleep. "Let's get busy." I walk into my closet and pick out my outfit for the day and there are many to choose from. I finally decide on the Bright pink leather jacket and the black leggings with a striped shirt and go downstairs to have breakfast. "Mom, you up?" I call not sure if she even can hear me. "Yep! In the kitchen what do you want?" Well I would like for Aaron to notice I exist but hey it can't be done. "Could I have some eggs?" "Sure" "Thanks" Well that was tasty.
AARON
"Have a good day at school honey." "Yeah, see you at 3!" When I get out I see my best friends Keith, Kevin and Adam waiting for me across the street in front of Kevin's car. "So are we ready for the big day?" Keith asks in the weirdest way possible. "Yeah, Sure let's get to school we don't want Mr. Stewart have another meltdown about us being late again!"
AMANDA
At school my first two classes are fine but once we get to three period everything changes when four guys in the far right corner of the room stop talking and I can immediately sense they were talking about me. I just ignore them like I have for the last five months.
AARON
Everything has been so awkward ever since Rebecca and I broke up last fall she started spreading rumors about me and I will admit I threw some of my own rumors every now and then but hey not as often as this! "Jason would you like to take a seat now or later?" the entire class erupts into a roar of people screaming "Oooooh!!!!"
This is just everyday in Mr. Stewart's class.
The bell rings for lunch and I look at Keith then Adam and finally Kevin and I can tell what their thinking- "Ask Amanda out now quick!" I nod nervously and approach him "Hey Amanda..." "Yeah." "I was wondering if you would like to go to the movies with me tonight?" All I can think is- "Please say yes please say yes." "Uh, Sure." " Okay, while see you then!" As she walks away I am freaking out and loving every second of it. Adam and the others run up and start attacking me with questions and when I tell them what he said they all freak out.
The day was pretty boring after that we went to class listened did some work and repeat. After-school on the other hand was awesome.
Well tonight should be a night to remember for everyone, when we got to the movies she was there in a big white dress with her hair loose.
"You look gorgeous!" I say nervously. "Thanks." then she smiles.
Once we get the tickets to Red-River she says something that send's me in a nervous frenzy. "Jason, do you like me?" "Ughh..."
She just stares at me waiting for my response. I finally just come-out with it all- "Yes, I like you."
She just stands there smiling and then grabs my hand and walks towards the theater. In my head I am freaking out but on the outside I am really relaxed although my breathing is quite heavy I manage to keep it down.
During the movie I can't stop looking at her and once or twice she catches me and I immediately look back at the screen. I put my arms slowly around her and she looks straight at me and smiles and lays her head on my shoulder.
"I am having so much fun." she says and then kisses me on the chek and I sit there thinking how could this night get any better
When all of a sudden a man stands up and shoots 3 times in the air.
The second I hear the shots, I grab Amanda try running to the exit but another shot rings in the air and I look over and there she is on the floor bleeding out with a bullet hole through chest.
I grab her and run crying as I try to escape.
If I was going to die I was going to die a hero.
Two hours later I am in the hospital lying in a bed with a patch on my shoulder. "What happened?" "You were in an shooting son."
"Where's Amanda?" the doctor and my parents give me a sad look. "No... No... why???" I say through all of the tears that come pouring down my face and I start screaming because I want this guy to suffer for killing her, She was only 16! The rest of the night is me crying.
Thanks for reading my first chapter!!!
