Lonesome

Bonding

"Everyone stop! I know you all love Austin but you don't need to crowd him and his friend. Please go back and sit down." The principal told everyone. he was on lunch today.

"I'm sorry, Austin. i know how you feel and it's awful."

"Nah, it's fine. Sometimes, it gets crazy but most of the time i love it because i can meet fans. Like if im doing a concert and fans are waiting outside, i'll purposely stop by them and take selfies with some. I love my mahomies more than anything."

"Aw, that's sweet."

"Thanks. Wanna sit?"

"Yeah. Let's get lunch." We get it line to go to lunch and the lunch lady totally lets Austin get his lunch for free. Surprisingly, she also lets me.

"I did not expect to get my lunch free."

"Neither did I. i actually don't like it when people give me free stuff just because i'm famous. i want to feel like a normal teenager. Ya know?"

"Yeah. i get it."

"so, how's the food here?" Austin asks.

"it's actually okay. since we're seniors, we're allowed to walk to town and get lunch. we can do that whenever you want."

"Sweet! that's awesome!" We talked about life and got to know each other more. Before we knew it, the bell rang.

"I gotta say, you're not bad."

"Well, thanks i guess."

"Haha. i mean like you're totally a regular kid and you're so nice and caring. Most celebrities i know are bad people."

"Yeah.. i know. i'll never be like them. don't worry. What class do we have now?"

"We have Chorus." As soon as i said that, his face lit up.

"seriously? that's awesome!! it sounds so fun! so far, this school has everything i like." We arrive at chorus and the teacher Mr. Yemetti welcomes us all. 45 minutes pass and class is over.

•••••••••••••••••••

Before we know it, the day is over. i have to admit, today was probably the best day of school i've had in years.

"Bye austin. ill see you tomorrow!"

"Wait! before you go, whats your number?" we exchanged numbers and then went our separate ways. When i got home, my sister wasn't home, which was unusual. i was curious where she was. I called her but no answer.
