Alright, Monday morning. First day of school. No problem, I'm not nervous at all, I'm 17 which makes me damn near a adult, or thats what everyone SAYS anyways. I've never felt much different with every passing year but. Alright it's fine.
I got this, it's time to have a good day.
Settling his mind straight, Jason begins to head out. As he opens his front door his eyes are berated by the distant, but bright street lights. Narrowing his eyes and coming out onto the sidewalk, he begins to realize how dark it truly is and just how BRIGHT those street lights are. As he begins on his route to the bus stop, he begins to ponder to himself.
Let's see, what time is it? 6:35 huh? Damn I better not miss the bus on the FIRST day. We all know how that went last time.
With new found determination he begins to sprint, as to not be late for the bus. As he begins turning the corner of his street, he realizes people have arrived there before him. Two large men with there backs turned to him stand at the bus stop coupled by a small woman a little under 5 foot tall. For some reason those men but Jason on edge.
I am probably overthinking, as always, but it wouldn't hurt to much to be defensive would it? It is not as if I care about first impressions anyways. Or people. Or random guys on the street. I don't really care at all now do I. I sound like a damn loner. Yeahhhhh, kinda am.
Jason carefully steps towards the bus stop, to make as little noise as possible keeping both of the men at a distance in which keeps the three of them a distant V shape. In Jason's mind this is the best way to defend multiple targets. Jason spends his next five minutes with his eye on them, this is of course till the small woman (Not apart of his V) begins to speak to him. Which catches him off guard. Jason doesn't not like being caught off guard.
"Hello there! My names Maia, what's yours? You've been looking at us and I'm guessing you want to talk. Right?"
Holy fuck! Silence and then bam! Creepy doll girl suddenly has a voice. Holy.... Ok ok. What'd she even say?? I wanted to talk to her? No sweet heart that wasn't the god damn plan but now I have to or I'm the "creepy kid". There's ALWAYS a creepy kid.
"Hey, the names Jason, sorry about looking so much. It's kinda early and I didn't think talking was a good idea. Of course now here I am. TALKING."
Hm, might've been a bit to rude.
As this conversation begins to break out the other two turn facing Jason. Both of them are shorter then Jason believed them to be, maybe standing at 5'8 , which gives Jason about a 6 inch height advantage. One of them appears to be a Hispanic and apparently has a thing for crosses as not only is he wearing one, but there is another large one on his shirt. The other person is a dark skinned male with very low cut hair. He is wearing more vibrant color, specifically blue and orange.
With a slight smile Maia begins to speak, again.
"Oh um yeah.. now we're um... Talking... Hey! I don't wanna be a bother but if you wanna talk to me anytime you can! It's always good to have a friend right?"
Nearing the end of her little speech, she lightly tilts her head to the right brandishing a warm and kind smile. She also extends her hand as a friendly gesture of friendship. Without much thought Jason accepts it, shaking her hand. As Jason begins to look back up something in her eyes have changed. Her once friendly and welcoming eyes are now full of panic and fear. Jason feels her palms lightly sweating and she takes a step back from him.
Might've grabbed her to hard. Dammit not I'm the creepy, womanizer. Great and there's two witness.
"Is everything alright with you? Are you ok?"
