Hoodie Girl

Chapter 5

After checking if my hood was on, I left Stephanie's office and began to walk toward my locker. While walking to my locker I saw a familiar face. It looked like my next door neighbor and she began to walk toward me.

I began to walk faster toward my locker, but she caught up to me.

"Hi. My name is Riley Stewart and I'm new here! Could you help me toward the front office?" she said.

"Sure.." I mumbled. Even though I have trust issues I'm still a nice person. Plus something about her gives me good vibes and I think I can trust her.

Now obviously I didn't go spilling my life story to her, because I wasn't exactly sure if I could completely trust her but we did talk a little.

She told me how she moved her because her mom got a new job and her parents are divorced.

Then the dreaded question came..

"Why do you wear that hood?" I stopped walking. She looked behind to where I was. She couldn't see my eyes, because of my hood. Which was good because my eyes began to get watery.

"Here's the office," I said, completely ignoring her question. After she looked at me confused, she understood I didn't want to talk about it and she went inside.

Once she went inside, I walked off to my first class. Science.

Even though I get straight A's, that doesn't mean I like school. I dread it. Once I walked it, I immediately walked to the back of the class and sat next to a window. I pulled out my headphones and began to listen to music.

The classroom was quite empty, because there was still a few minutes before class began. Soon the bell rang and students began to fill the classroom. Everyone sat down in their seats and, like always, no one sat next to me.

The teacher began to do attendance and she soon called out "Hoodie Girl". I raised my hand silently, not saying a word. She looked at me and nodded her head. The teachers don't call me by my real name and they've given up on trying to get me to put my hood down.

After a few minutes, the door burst open, revealing a male figure. He was wellbuilt and anyone could tell he worked out. He looked about 6'2" with his hand going through his black hair. He looked at the teacher with his blue eyes.

Damn. Those eyes are beautiful. And his hair... Hot. Wait what?! No not hot.

The teacher looked at him confused.

"Who are you and why are you late?!" The guy simply glared at him and his eyes began to widen in anger. Soon two other boys ran in the classroom.

"Sorry we're late. We're new here and got a bit lost." The boy with blonde hair and amber eyes looked at the other guy who walked in earlier. He then whispered something in his ear and then that guy began to calm down a bit.

The teacher looked at all three of them and then nodded in understanding.

"Since you guys are new.. Why don't you introduce yourselves?"

The blonde haired guy nodded excitedly.

"Sure! My name is Caden Jones. I can't wait to meet all of you!" He then looked at the other guy who had dark brown hair and jade eyes.

"Hey! My name is Lucas Anderson and this is Dylan Johnson." he said while pointing at the first guy.

"Now that you're done introducing yourselves, please go take a seat."

Unfortunately, the only available seats were in the back near me.

"You guys can go ahead and take a seat near Hoodie Girl sitting in the back." They all looked toward me with confused expressions.

The three began to walk toward me while everyone in the classroom was whispering and murmuring about how hot they were.

Can't deny it though... NO Stop!

Anyways... Dylan sat next to me with Caden and Lucas next to him.

After a while, I felt someone staring at me and so I turned to see that Dylan was staring at me.

"What are you looking at?!" I whisper-yelled.

"I'm just thinking why you always wear your hood up and why none of the teachers know your name and call you "Hoodie Girl"," he whispered.

"Well that's none of your business!" I slightly yelled. I didn't think the teacher heard me until..

"Hoodie Girl! Dylan! Detention after school!"

Damn it! I haven't gotten detention ever. There goes my nerd reputation...

We both got up to go to the office to get our detention slips. When we left the classroom, we heard a lot of talking coming from the croom and then Caden and Lucas came running out of the classroom to catch up with us.

"What are you guys doing here and what did you do now?" Dylan asked annoyed.

"Well, let's just say we have detention too." Caden said while laughing and soon he looked at Lucas. Lucas started smiling and they both then looked at me.

I quickly turned around and continued walking to the front office. Once I was there, I got my detention slip and went to my next class.

Unfortunately, Dylan was in all my classes.

It's just a coincidence right?... Right?!

It's now the end of the day and I'm about to enter the classroom for detention. It took me a while to find considering I've never been in here.
