Ok, sure, I was excited at first. But then I walked into the cafeteria with Rina and saw jason waving at as and got so nervous it felt like my stomach was eating itself. "Come on, Lucy, Jason's waiting for us." Rina said. "I'm not sure about this, Rina. I'm really scared. What if i eat too fast? What if i eat too messy? What if I say something stupid? What if I accidentally chew with my mouth open?" I rambled on. "Stop! Your just fine! and a little paranoid. Jason won't care if you do any of those things so let's go sit!" Rina said, grabbing my wrist and pulling me to the table. Jason looked at us and patted the seats right next to him, signaling for us to sit. I gathered up all my courage "Uh, Hey Jason. Hey Piper." I said softly. "Hey guys. How was class?" Piper asked. "Class was BORING!! What else would you expect? It's school." Rina replied. "Dang." Jason chuckled. "How bout yall, how were your classes so far?" I asked. Jason looked at piper, as if expectant of her to answer. "Well, Language arts was interesting I guess and science lab was the same as last year so it gets pretty boring." Jason said. "Thats true. Whats yalls favorite class?" I asked. "Well, mine is math and Jason's is history." Piper replied. "Everything's boring. There is no fun classes except lunch." Rina complained. Lunch was going well. I'm happy I was able to talk to him this time. Lunch went pretty fast from there. We ate and talked. I was smiling and probably blushing the whole time. As much as I wanted to dislike Piper, she was just too sweet and nice. She is one of the people who everyone just loves. I heard the bell ring and was surprised. It felt like 10 minutes. "Well we should get to class. Thanks for sitting with us today." Jason said and smiled at us. "Why don't yall sit with us again tomorrow?" Piper asked. "Sure!" Rina said enthusiastically. "Bye. See yall tomorrow. Enjoy class." I said and we rushed off to class.
During the next class I was so tired I couldn't force myself to stay awake. I dozed off like five minutes after I sat down. I slipped into another nightmare, as I did everynight. I was in a road in the middle of nowhere. It was completely abandoned, surrounded by nothing but sand. I looked around me trying to figure out where I was. Then something moved to my left. I looked over and my dad was mumbling holding some papers. Since my mom died a few years ago, my dad had gone pretty much insane. He stayed in his office all day, doing who knows what. "Dad!! Dad!! Dad!!" I called but he just kept mumbling. My brother, Will, appeared to my right. He was reading a comic book. I was really confused by now. All of the sudden a fire surrounded me in a circle, passing a foot or so in front of Dad and Will. "Run!" I yelled. Will turned and just walked away but dad sat there mumbling over his papers. He didnt even seem to notice the fire. The fire then circled him. His clothes caught on fire and then his papers burned. He sat stating at the grounded as his skin caught on fire and burned. I sat there watching. I couldn't stand this. I was crying so hard, but then i felt someone grab my hand. I looked next to me and Rina was there. "Lucy. Lucy. Lucy." she kept saying. Then I woke up and realized she was shaking me awake. It was the end of class. I fell straight out my seat and started sobbing in the middle of class.
