Josh is Here

Destiny's POV

I woke up and looked over at my alarm clock.

6:30.

I guess I should get up.

I got up off of my bed and walked over to my dresser. I picked out the clothes that I would wear to school today.

School. Ugh. Then I remembered that Josh is coming today. I sighed and gathered up all my things for school.

I walked out of my room and into the kitchen. I saw Rose, my mother, and my father sitting at the table, eating. When I walked in the room, my mother and father both glared at me. I hung my head low, sat down, and started eating.

After a very awkward, silent breakfast, I grabbed all my things and said goodbye to everyone, even though Rose was the only one that replied.

I rushed outside and stood in my driveway, waiting for the bus to come.

-

I waited for about five minutes before the bus finally arrived. It stopped right in front of me and the doors opened. I quickly hurried up the steps and on to the bus. I rushed to the back seat where I saw Denise sitting. I noticed that she had her Enderman hoodie-that I gave her-on. At least she's here this time.

"Hey, my parents said that I could stay with you," I said. She smiled widely.

"Yay! Can you come over there today?" she asked. "We can work out all the details."

"Yeah I can start moving in today," I told her. "I started packing last night when I couldn't sleep."

"Really? That'd be awesome! I already have some stuff in there," she said.

"Cool. Oh, and is it alright if we have the thing on Friday at the apartment?" I asked.

"Yah, sure, why?" she questioned.

"I'll tell you after school," I told her.

"Oh, ok..." she trailed off.

-

We talked until we got to school. The bus stopped and everyone started to get off of the bus. We were in the back of the bus, so of course we got off last.

Right after we got off the bus, the girl that talked to me in the group, I think her name is Brittany, pulled me aside, grabbed my wrist, and squeezed it as hard as she could. It didn't really hurt. That's another one of my abilities; I am very tolerant to pain.

"Remember, idiot, if you say anything to Josh, you're going to get it from me," she said. I nodded and she let go of my wrist. I calmly walked back over to Denise.

"What did she want?" She asked.

"Oh, nothing, she was just asking me something," I lied.

As we walked in the school, there was a group of girls swarming a guy. I guessed it was Josh. I could hear him repeatedly asking them 'Which one of you is Destiny?' and they all were yelling 'Me!' I caught a few dirty looks from Brittany. I think he snapped.

"Stop!" he yelled, "Which one of you is really Destiny?" I hesitated. I know that he would be better off getting help from me because all the other girls don't even know where lockers #305 and #307 are. But I know that if I say something, Brittany will come after me for revenge. I decided to take the risk. But before I could step forward and raise my hand, all the girls started yelling 'Me!' again. He looked like he had enough. He saw a teacher down the hall and tried to push through crowd of girls.
