THE STORY OF US

Chapter one

High school is boring. All you do is sit in cold rooms with cinder block walls for an hour, some with windows and some without. Glad this is my senior year. I'm so tired of this place. High school is the worst.  The only thing that I have enjoyed from high school are my friends. Rachel Jacoby, Maggie Dunham, and Nova Adams, we call ourselves, the death pack! Sounds scary, but really we are very far from scary. How we got our name is pretty funny. Rachael and I  found a full pack of gum on the floor, us being weird. We offered our friends a piece before we told them where we got it. We were already chewing it so, they didn't think anything was up. After we all had a piece in our mouth I told them where we found the gum. We all started laughing. I told them that if we die we will die together. Random and kinda gross I know, but your friends don't let you do stupid stuff alone, they do stupid stuff with you.

*Death Pack*

Nova: Hey, Fallon let's meet at maggie's locker before we go to lunch.

Me: Okay! About to leave class.

A few weeks back my friend, Nova and I got into this huge argument because her boyfriend, Devon, was being a total jerk. So I ended up moving lockers to get away from him. Now I share a locker with Maggie, it is right beside Rachel's locker.  Sometimes I use her locker too, but she has two other people that also use it. Scott Pockets and his terrible girlfriend Chloe Hansen. The most hated girl in the school. I don't see what he sees in her?  I am forced to like her because Rachel is her bff. Yay!

Hey, Rachel!  I said as I made my way to my locker. 

Hey Fallon, I saw that you and Nova are finally talking again. She replied. 

Yeah, it wasn't her fault that he acted like that, I'm still mad at Devon. I declared. Now hush she's walking this way.

Our senior trip was just in a few days. I'm so excited to be going to New York City. Nova and I have been discussing what we will be packing every day at lunch for the past month.  

Okay so when we go on the dinner boat cruise, I want to wear my new dress with my heeled boots, Nova mumbled.

I am so tired of planning this trip out. It has been so stressful! We leave in three days. I am ready to get out of this little town. This lunch food kills my soul every day. Why do they not have anything for me to eat?  Do they not think about vegetarians? I whined. Obviously when I'm hungry I get mean.

After lunch I only have three more classes. They are the worst three classes of the day. Algebra 2, English 4, and Early Childhood development 2.

As I make my way to algebra I pass Tanner. He's my ex, we've been on and off the past two years. Right now we are currently on. I smile as I pass him. After I get to class and sit down I pull out my phone to text him.

*Buzz*

Tanner: Hey:)

Fallon: I was just about to text you! I can't text much in this class I have a test today:(

Alright, students, time is up.  Please bring your tests up to be graded! Mr. Tom Little yelled.

I walked up to his desk, handed him my scan sheet, and darted out the door before he had the chance to speak to me. Ever since last weekend, everything had been so awkward between him and me. But it was my fault, I shouldn't have jacked off my candy bar to my best friend, Kegan, as we were walking out of Walmart. How was I supposed to know that he would be there at the exact moment I was stroking it? And plus he didn't have to yell at Kegan or ask me the next day if I had something I needed to talk about. Good thing it is almost graduation!

In English 2 I'm having to write a paper on Beowulf. I fell asleep during the end yesterday now I'm completely lost. After an hour and twenty minutes, the class is finally over! I have a decent start on my paper for that class.

The last class of the day: Early Childhood development. The only good part of this class is the Death Pack is all together! Unfortunately Ms. Cornugget. That's not actually her name her name is Ms. Cornett, but one time in class this random boy burst through the door coming to see her and he talked to her forever before she told him that he had to leave. When he was leaving he screamed BYE MS. CORNUGGET as loud as he could. The name just stuck within our group. She put us in assigned seats. Rachel and I sit the closest together. Not really the best of choice. Only one seat separates us and the person who sits in it never shuts up. This is where DP, aka death pack, started. Maggie and I went all through grade school and middle together. We didn't become friends till freshman year though. Nova and I met during archery practice freshman year. She started archery for some loser, who ended up quitting. Lastly Rachel and I just recently become friends junior year. We all have gotten so close this past year I'm so glad they are my friends!

The bell rings meaning it's the end of the day and time to get the hell out of here. I hurry and get my things ready. We all walk out of the room together, Rachel has to get to the gym after school. She helps with the girls basketball team. Nova, Maggie, and I drive so we head out to our cars. I get in my car and drive off the hill.
