Chapter 7

I am sitting under the tree at our special place, waiting for Brian. he said to meet here after school to talk about something. I have no idea what it is because he is really good at keeping secrets. I started day dreaming about what it could be and closed my eyes. I didn't even notice Brian standing over me until he began to talk.

" Hello sleepy head " he said mockingly.

" Brian " I squealed and jumped up hugging him.

He laughed and motioned to sit down so, we both sat down right next to each other.

" I have been thinking " he said " Well you know we have been getting to know each other really well and I think we both like each other so.... do you want to umm.... Be girlfriend and boyfriend".

" Yes! " said immediately with a huge smile on my face.

The next day we walked in school hand in hand, all smiles and laughs, and every one was staring; jealousy in there eyes. I didn't care all that mattered was Brian he was my first friend, first boyfriend, and first all around person I ever truly cared about. Even if this is just puppy love to other people its real to me. this is my love life not theirs.

I walked into art class ( one of the classes me and Brian don't have together) I sat down in my usual seat, away from every one in the room. The art classroom is my favorite, there are wonderful paintings covering every wall; each one telling its own individual story. There are millions of shelves holding billions of art supplies. Paints, brushes, pencils, crayons, pens, sharpies, glue and a bunch of other things. When I am in here I feel like I can do anything, create anything. It is an amazing feeling.

I come back to reality to see a girl with curly short brown hair and green eyes walking toward me I haven't ever seen her before so she must be new. She sits down in the empty seat beside me and looks nervously down at her hands folded in her lap. A few seconds later Mrs. Peterson the art teacher walked in.

" Hello class we have a new student joining our class" she said " Emily would you care to stand up?"

The girl stood up her face red as a tomato and quickly sat back down. She looked like she was about to burst into tears. I felt sorry for her I remember when I used to be that shy.

" Alrighty then" said Mrs. Peterson " Class please take out your projects and continue working, Olivia will you help Emily get started with hers, darling?"

I gave a quick nod not wanting to draw any attention to the situation for Emily's sake. So I quietly explained the project to her and got her started. she didn't say a single word, just nodded. I didn't mind, I like to talk, well now anyways....
