Holding Back

Chapter 3

I was so confused and scared I didn't know which way to go. Everyone had someone or somewhere to go. I pull out my schedule. First class was pre calculus with the seniors, great.

I walked in the building and looked for my locker. Number 293. I opened it, it's so boring, everyone else's locker is decorated or something and mine isn't.

I got what I needed and put useless things in my locker and headed to class, I wasn't running late or anything.

"Hey you lost?" Jack and Jack come running up to me.

I just laugh.

"What's your first class?" Jack J says grabbing my schedule. They both both observe it.

"Pre calculus? That's were I'm headed." Jack G says with a smirk.

"Your already taking pre calculus?" Jack J asks.

"yeah... Is that bad?" I ask

"nah your ahead of the game." Jack J says. I smile. "Well I'll see you guys later."

"See ya. Come on little sophomore." Jack G says

I giggle softly.

He throws his arm over my shoulder and walks with me. It was weird but I liked it. No one was ever this nice to me.

We walk into pre calculus and we are alittle early so people are chilling and talking. The first thing that happened was Leigh jumped up and kissed Jack. He took his arm from me. I tried not to look I didn't know what to do. She wrapped her arms around his neck. And he puts his hand on her waist pushing her away.

Caroline jumps in besides Leigh and standing across from me "love birds!" She says with a bright smile.

My heart sunk all the way to my stomach and I could barely breathe.

"Shut up." Leigh says in a playful way and pushes Caroline alittle and leans agains Jack for a quick second.

"Hey so what are you doing here?" Caroline says looking at me.

"Yeah I thought you were a sophomore." Leigh said.

"Oh I am I'm taking advanced math." I answered. She rolled her eyes at me. And looked away. That hurt. I don't think Jack saw... I didn't want him to.

"Well let's find our seats." Jack said.

We all walked over and jack took a seat in the back of the class and I was about to sit next him but Leigh hurried and took the seat.

"Hey I think I'm gonna sit in the front I can't see from back here." I say. There was no point. I was happy that I got to be in the first class with him... But not anymore.

I took my seat in the front and doodled in my journal. This is what class is gonna be like I'm nervous.

Soon a bunch of kids walked into the classroom. Everyone took their seats. And then the bell rung.

"Hello class I'm Mr. Hutch, I will be you Calculus teacher." An old white male with white long hair greeted.

I liked him he seemed very smart and Knowledgable.

He lectured us about the importance of math and school and said he would have games so that we could all get to know everyone.

Once class was over I didn't even bother talking to Jack for a second because I knew Leigh would be there and all over him.

I walked to my next class creative writing. I knew I would like this one. My teacher was very nice. I wasn't in a special advanced class for this one.

After that class was lunch. This was what I was scared of. The big giant lunchroom, I've seen in movies. There is a place for populars, needs, jocks, goths, cheerleaders... That's what it's gonna be like right?

I walked in and the lunchroom was huge! A giant roar of noise it was so much to handle. I didn't know where to go, where to turn, I depended on jack.

"Hey you lost?" Jack says coming from behind me.

I laugh "no" I respond.

"I make you laugh, you think I'm funny?" He says with the cutest smirk.

"Funny looking" I joked. Of course I joked... Have you seen him. I was really opening up to him... Being around him felt better.

"Um no he's like a sex god." Leigh says coming up to us.

He smiles.

"Come on let's sit at our table" Caroline says and we walk over there.

Is this happening? I'm sitting by the seniors? Not just the average seniors.... The popular ones. This isn't what I expected it to be like. I'm so elated right now.

Soon the day ends I walk back home and run straight into my bed room and pull out my diary and right.

"The extravagant adventures I create in my mind begin to surface reality and become a part of me. Life is seemed to be short but it's taking forever... Or it took forever. For once in my life I feel a whole, I'm at peace, but not pieces." I write.

I eat dinner and my mom asks about my day. I tell her. For once I open up. She seemed happy that I talked to her.

Later on I take a shower and put on my pjs and go to sleep.

Jack was on my mind... I couldn't stop thinking about him. But Leigh won't get out the way.

I've never been this happy though I hope I stay this way.
