Learning to Live (on hold)

Chapter 3

Hi guys. Sorry for not updating over the weekend I was kinda busy, and I am today :(, but I thought that I should at least post a short chapter. Hopefully I' ll have a longer one up by Wednesday. On the side is a picture of Xavier, he’ll be portrayed by Sean O’Donell. Thanks for the support, and don't forget to comment and vote! Bye

 

Recap:

 

We all stand, and listen to the song we've heard over a billion times. As the national Anthem plays, the door suddenly swings open.

“I’m here!", says a voice. Everyone looks over, and guess who’s standing there.

***

“Shhh" hisses Mr.Tom. I’m lost for words, Jason is standing there at the door! I haven't been in a class with him since grade 7 and I had hoped it would stay that way till the end of highschool. This is just great. Not only do I have Riah in my Homeroom, I have her boyfriend Jason too.

“Have a great first day at school” says the voice through the PA. Jason takes a seat on the left side of the pair of chairs in front of me, right beside Riah.

Bam! The door slams open, and Mr. Tim jumps at the unexpected sound. Why are there so many late people on the first  day of school!

"Sorry I’m late, I couldn't find the class” says the guy at the door. Wait that's the jerk from this morning.

"Well you didn't need to slam the door son. By the way who are you? I haven't seen you around"

"Richards, Xavier Richards". Who does this idiot think he is, James Bond? Well, he is hot enough, wait what? Snap out of it Sandra!

"Take a seat ", Mr. Tim grunts. Oh great, not only do I have Riah, and Jason in my class I also have the attractive jerk, I mean Xavier. This really is going to be the best year ever. Note the sarcasm. Xavier scans the classroom looking for a seat, as he looks at the seat right next to mine. I see him smirk at me as he walks over to me and sits in the chair. Great! Not only is this idiot in my class, but he just HAS to sit beside me. I need to beg someone to switch seats with me after class. He places his books on the desk, and sighs as he adjusts in his chair. This day couldn't possibly get any worse.

"Hello everyone I’m Mr.Tim, your homeroom and english, 12 U (university) teacher. I see some unfamiliar faces in this class." He glances over and smiles at Xavier, but the idiot just glares back. He's probably too cool of a jerk to share just a small smile with a teacher, just like every other jerk in the world. Jason was never like that, he was always polite to everyone around him. Damn it! I need to get over Jason! "Before we get into any real learning, I think you guys should have a little discussion with your seat partners so that you guys can create a bond" says Mr.Tim, interrupting my thoughts. What?! How old does he think we are, 11? I really don't like the sound of this, “and what better way to do this than to do some presentations. You will ask the person beside you some questions, and you guys will each present a presentation about each other to the whole class at the end of the month, so that we can all know more about one another. Isn't this a great idea! Plus there’s no better way to get to know the person you’re going to be sitting next to PERMANENTLY for the rest of the semester than this!".

‘Oh no, this day just got worse pretty fast.’ , I thought as I hit my head on the desk.
