Maths? No physics.. No idiot its Chem..wait I should go to my locker and check. Wait pause what is the code? Oh shit I forgot. 1468? No 4573? I think in my mind.
"Ahhhh!! "
"You need help?" , I look to my right to see who the guy is. He's wearing a red t-shirt with black jeans paired with sneakers just like mine.
"Um I guess ya" , I make a puppy face and he punches three times on the locker once on left hand side top, then down and then on the lock. And the locker opened.
"Ta-da" , he smiles and I give him a big smile followed by a thank you.
I look to my right again. That guy is still there searching something in his locker. Then I check the time table , "Okay it was nothing what I thought! Its English" , I mutter.
"No not English! " , he said and made a puppy face and then he turned towards me.
"Hey I have never seen you around"
I was reminded about the answer I gave to Adriana and I answered him in the same way.
He chuckles and then starts walking with me. I felt weird because I don’t even know his name but then I guess he read my mind and he said, " My name is Austin" , I smile and I say, "I'm Kristen". While walking I found Adriana again on the way and she said she has the same class so we three walked together. Adriana and Austin knew each other already that too very well!
"Austin your T-shirt looks funny. Seriously spongebob? How old are you?"
"I'm 18 and I have all rights to wear anything I want to. At least I keep my books in my locker and not carry them around. Nerd!"
Ouch!
Till the time they both fought we reached the class and turned out to be so boring that I could see Austin sleeping on his friend's shoulder but the teacher didn’t seem to care. I was sitting alone. Actually the teacher wanted me to pay attention in my first class and made me sit on the first bench. Alone. She knew this was my last class in which I will pay attention.
The period ended fast but next period was MATHS. As I entered I realized that I was late. I was late because of Austin. He didn’t let me go until he knew which period was it for him. Turns out.. He was free.
I knocked at the door and a middle aged man stared at me. He was of normal height but he was kind of skinny and had less hair on his head. He wore glasses which were small for his face. He walked towards me and stood a little away.. I guess..5 cms away..He lifted his glasses and said, "Why are you late to the class? Miss-" ,
"Kristen, Kristen Lambert, I'm new---". This almost came out like a squeak because I guess he was really beginning to scare me.
" Miss Lamburt?" , my eyes were wide open and I said, " Sir its Lambert not Lamburt" , he narrowed his eyes and shouted at the top of his voice ,
"MISS LAMBURT , I DON'T CARE HOW YOUR NAME IS PRONOUNCED. ALL I CARE IS WHY ARE YOU LATE TO MY CLASS?" ,
I was taken aback and I could feel my heartbeat and some of the boys chuckling. I gathered some courage and spoke, "Sir I'm new to this school and I didn’t know which room to go so I was kind of lost." , His face totally changed and he grinned, " Ohhhh!! So you are new. So you should introduce yourself to the class." , he got hold of my shoulder and we walked to his table. His mood swings were creeping the shit out of me. The windows were open and a small breeze welcomed me . My hair flew a bit and I could see little bit of sunshine making its way inside the room. I cleared my throat and started to say something.
"Hi um... my name is Kristen Lambert. This is my first day in this school and I'm from New Jersey." , when I was out of words I turned at the teacher and he pointed at person and ordered me to sit next to him/her. I turned to see who it was and a familiar face smiled back at me. Jensen! I take a seat next to him and all the girls are looking at me as if they are going to sit on me and kill me like a butcher kills the poultry animal.
"Hey new girl." , he looks at me and I'm reminded about Miranda. I almost forgot about her.
"Hi."
"So we meet again" , he smiles at me and I stare into his hazel eyes. "Yes we meet again."
The whole period, I noticed him looking at me sometimes but I didn’t want to make an eye contact so I just tried to ignore him. I just want to get out of that class as soon as possible. I didn’t like this class at all. I just want to escape from the glares I've been getting through out the class. This kind of different behavior was haunting me a bit. Everyone looked at me like they have never seen a girl before and muttering with to friends- 'who's that?" . Not many people were friendly in this place and although I'd met Austin, Adriana, Jensen and Phillip who were nice to talk to but I couldn't really classify them as my friend. Majority of the crowd just minded their own business.
I wish.. I find someone who I can be comfortable with and make atleast one good friend.
