Forever

Jen

The world is my place. I choose who I love, and who and what bothers me. I like new schools because nobody expects you to be anything, unlike family. I have a mom and a Sam. Sam is my mom's boyfriend. I knew him when I was a baby but he went to jail and didn't come back until this year and things just weren't the same. I hate when people try too hard. For my attention, love, friendship, relation... So I'm in 9th grade and that's pretty young but I actually think I'm pretty mature, well, I am in honors. Speaking of, first class of the day. I walked in the classroom and sat in the back. I put my pale green (my favorite color) backpack on the side of my desk and waited for someone to sit on the right side. Then I saw approaching me was a taller guy with dark brown, almost black eyes, medium dark skin and dark brown hair. He sat down and flashed me a smile. Why not, so I did too. "Hello freshmen, welcome to your first day of High school!"an exotic and energetic woman said, "I'm Mrs. Leao." Everyone said "Hi Mrs. Leao" while I just sat blank. "So today is kind of nerve wrecking I would assume, so chat with your neighbor for about ten minutes." I turned to my right and at the same time he did. "I'm Steven", he didn't look like a Steven; like a...Nicolas. Oh well! "Jen" I blinked. "Well um hi Jen" he couldn't help but smile I could tell. He had dimples. Well of course because I'm a nerd who loves science I have to refer to them as gelasins. "Hi" yeah good move. "So what Junior high are you from?" He asks like he cares. "Cumbre Valley" I say. "Cool I went to Orville" he probably lives on the west side. "Cool" wtf is with us and cool!? "Okay students, role time!!" She yells. "Yvette Alano, Will Bernard", and so on until I hear "Steven Pavallos". Pavallos huh. And right after, " Jennifer Penda"
I raise my hand. "What do you have next", Steven whispers. "Um... oh yeah math with Mr. Daly" Barely remembering. "Me too" ok he's smart.
