As the bus pulled into Greenwood High, I could see over 100 teens in the front of the school;as far as the eye can see.

For a minute,Carmen stopped brushing her hair and turned to looks out of the window.

"Dang Patience...all these boys!! Aii papi!!!!"

"Are boys all you think about!?"

She turned to me with a 'Are You Serous' face and started laughing

"Shouldn't you know me by now,Chica?"

I smiled. "Of course I know you!"

I've know this girl since the days I've been wearing diapers!

Carmen is like,the best Mexican girl I've ever met. She is really short, but her body is popping! Even though she never said it, I think her mom used to be a model! She has ALOT of long,curly,black hair and she's absolutely obsessed with it. Carmen has that whole, 'Im Cool But Mess With Me If You Want To:See What's Gon Happen' type attitude. But hey, that's why she's my sista.

"Ok,well just know that ima be mingling like it ain't nothing..Oooh he is fine.."

"No problem with me,Carmen,but don't get your heart broken."

"I am Carmen-Rose Delareno Rodriguez...IM the one breaking hearts here!"

Looking up,I saw the doors to the bus open and all the teens rushing out like wild animals. Including Nathan. Baka.

I really didn't wanna get off the bus in front of everyone with these monstrosity of a pair of glasses. Then again,I couldn't hide on the bus like an idiot.

"Patience,they're going to notice your glasses sooner or later" Carmen said stepping off the bus. "Plus if anybody messes with you...then they gotta get through me."

As I stepped off the bus, I nearly got ran over by a group of jocks.

"Ugh! Watch where you're going!"

"C'mon Chica! We gotta go get our schedules!"

Walking inside the school was like a dream. The school was covered in white marble and beautiful decorations. There were displays of trophies from the students of last year and paintings that looked almost as if a famous painter painted them.

"Ooooh it looks wonderful in here..." I thought out loud as Carmen agreed.

The hallways were swarmed with teachers,paper and confused students. And I tried to avoid everyone. It was going pretty well until...

Wait. No way. It can't be him... Anyone but him!

I stopped in my tracks completely traumatized.

"What's wrong with you?"

With no words at all,I pointed straight towards the boy.

Carmen stopped brushing and looked with serious face.

"Oh yeah! That's what I meant to tell you! Deangelo goes here! Isn't that great?"

No. It's not great at all! Deangelo Marshall is my super mega colossal crush! I've liked him since the 3rd grade. But I've never had the guts to tell him. But now everything will be worse with these stupid glasses.

Too speechless to say anything, Carmen responded by saying, "Oh yeah...your crush..hehe. Sorry bout that Chica. Oh! I think I've found where the schedules are!" Carmen grabbed my arm and dragged me to a desk in the hallway.
