Melanie:
Joshy and I have so many classes together! Finally we both get to our last class of the day, writing. Turns out Josh got here at the perfect time because we're starting a writing project today. 
"Good morning students." Our teacher shouts as she walks into the room. 
"Good morning Mrs.Johnson!" We all shout back. She goes to the board and writes WRITING PROJECT QUARTER 1-2 
"Okay for this project you and your partner will be writing a story. A genre of your choice, but it has to either be based around a box or two people making eye contact. However you want to portray those two prompts is your choice." Everyone starts to look at they're desired partner. 
"And no, you're not picking your partners. You're picking names out of a fish bowl." Everyone groans, so do I. I hate when this happens. 
"How this works is that I'm going to call a person up, and they're going to pick a name out of the bowl. Normal procedure." She nods and goes to grab her clip board of class names. 
"Sally Callo!" She got up and fished a name out of the bowl.
"Grace Almeida." She says with a smile. Apparently they've been friends since the first grade.
"Adam Kertesz!" He walks up to the front. With a disappointed face he says,
"Carson Daines." The girl squels. She's always had a crush on him.
"Daniel Howell!" The fragile boy stood up to go to the fish bowl. He takes a name and has a small smile.
"P-phil L-lester." I look back at Phil. He's happy.

This goes on for a long time until I hear my name. I look up and see Josh standing at the front of the class. Now it's my turn to be happy. He comes to sit by me, and we start discussing our story.
