Chapter 2 - Annoying Parents and Computer Tech

"You're not coming home."

"Dad. I'm in the same school as him and all of his crazy fans! Please!" I begged.

"Brooke, you need to go back to class and if he bothers you, I have no problem coming right to your school and kicking his ass."

"You did this on purpose."

"Calm down, put water on your face and get back to class."

The nurse looked at me sympathetically, and I sighed, knowing I'd have to get back to class.

"Do you need to talk to the guidance counselor?" The kind lady asked once I hung up.

"No," I sniffled, "I mean, I guess I have to man up and get back to my amazing first day of school."

"You can talk to me. Who's this boy that's bothering you?"

"Do you know of a Julio Gonzalez?" I asked, cringing at his name.

"Yes, I'm afraid I do. That boy is a cocky son of a gun," she laughed.

"Yeah... Well he's my, uh, ex boyfriend and we had a bad breakup..."

"Oh dear... But you only just moved here?"

"I know. It's ironic that I moved to the town he lives in, but we were online dating. We've met in person before."

"Oh honey... You can stay here for a while, but I can't hold you all day."

"Thank you," I told the nurse, "By the way, what's your name?"

"Nurse Scultzman. But you can call me Debbie."

I answered her, "Well thank you, Debbie."

She smiled and I lay down in the cot that was in the nurse's office.

"How about Computer Tech? Should I send you back then? That's 5th period," Debbie suggested.

"Sure," I answered, and drifted off to sleep.

Soon enough, I had to go back to class. Debbie wished me good luck and even showed me my way to the classroom. I walked in and was engulfed in an environment that I wasn't used to. People were up and all around the classroom talking.

When I walked in, the chatter seemed to stop. Quiet conversations were held as everyone stared at me.

The teacher seemed to immediately notice and walked up to me. She seemed really sweet.

"Hi, are you Brooklyn Taylor?" She asked.

The whispers grew louder when she said my name.

They know who I am.

"Uhm, yeah," I answered.

"I'm Ms. Tabby, your Tech teacher. Nice to meet you!"

"You too," I smiled. She directed me to an empty seat next to a boy.

I sat down and she told us we were starting a new project.

Phew, at least I didn't walk in in the middle of a project.

"I want you to create a website. That's all I'm giving you. Create a website based on a company or idea you make up yourself."

Yes! Something I can easily do myself.

"Get started."

About three minutes into starting my project, I heard the door open.

"Mr. Gonzalez, late as always. What's your excuse this time?" I heard Ms. Tabby ask.

My eyes widened and my heart started beating fast.

Don't turn around. Breathe.

"Ah, I was just trying to open my jammed locker," I heard his voice.

It's him. Breathe. Calm down.

"You used that one last week. Now sit down. Ask someone else what we're doing today."

"So, you and Tomahawk fighting?"

I jumped when the boy next to me spoke.

"Yeah, I guess. This is all so weird to me though. This entire school worships him."

"We worship you too. By the way, I'm Elliot. Nice to meet you, Brooke," he made me shake his hand.

He seems nice enough, I thought.

"Were you guys dating?" He asked.

"Um, can you keep that on the down low?" I asked. He took a moment to realize what I meant and nodded.

"Of course. Here, can I show you my Twitter? I want your opinion on my graphic art for my channel," he asked.

"Why sure!" I smiled for the first time today as he showed me his Twitter header.

"That's really good! What's your channel? I'll sub," I said.

"You'll do that?!"

"Of course. You're my friend now. We can even record together. I like having a friend here."

He seemed so shocked and happy. That made me really excited because I put a smile on someone's face.

"Okay, well my channel is BalancedPing, and that's my Twitter too," he explained, still smiling.

"Subscribed and followed." I smiled, not doing my project, but using the computer like my own.

"Oh my god, thank you."

"No problem!"

We continued doing our projects, mine being on a fake Minecraft server and his being a fanpage on the Cube. I thought that was pretty cool. He told me that he was actually going to make this website a real thing after the project is handed in.

"Break time! You guys have five minutes to stretch and socialize," Ms. Tabby suddenly said.

Break time?! Yeah, that's cool and all, but Julio's in this class and I assume he wants to talk to me. He's been trying to reach out to me for so long.

Oh fuck.
