Welcome to Arson high

JASON

Jason, it is Jason why did God do this to me, why, why, why, Zayda inhales sharply beside me 
" He's beautiful Sarah, beautiful" 

He looks beautiful indeed his blue eyes sharper and full with determination, he hasn't noticed me yet. So I walk extremely fast back to the study room dragging Zayda with me.

" that's the guy I told you about, the one I met at the park"
"oh, that's a big problem" Zayda realizes. I tug my hair in frustration, what the heck am I meant to do?

Everyone slowly trickles into class but none of them quiet, my book is now forgotten I bury my head in my arms, Zach walks in and in his lead is Jason all voices quieten as he moves to look for a free space I shift and my book falls down on the floor, making a loud af noise. I don't bother picking it up so I leave it but some kind people won't let me be, I grimace as Jason picks up my book and he looks up at me and as if a light bulb flickers his eyebrows raise and he smiles.

"Sarah, you didn't tell me that you went to Arson high," he says and everyone's head snaps to me.

I laugh nervously" you didn't tell me you're stopping homeschooling"

" Wait you know her?" Zach asked and at the same time

 Lacy turns to me " Wait you know him" 

My sweater starts to feel a little bit too tight. While he explained how we knew each other I caught a few death stares all located at me.

Jason handed me my  book and I collect it still looking down. Why must he look so handsome and intimidating at the same time.
 "my sister misses you a lot, she told me to give you a hug from her" he came closer to me, I shift back" I can't do that so I'll give you a handshake instead."

He grasped one of my hand and shook it, I have never been so embarrassed. He leaved to get his books and waves at me once more.

" Such a pity his jawline is not sharp but he is a fine piece of a man" Zayda exclaimed to me.

" oh don't look at me like that," I tell the whole room" I'm confused as you are right now"

" Is that, right? So you knew his name even before his introduction and you're saying that's a coincidence" Nicole asked me. " Do you think we are stupid?"

" do you really want me to answer that? " I ask them, I'm tired and confused right now I don't have time for their bullshit.

I left the study room, I had 35 minutes to the assembly that is meant to hold I decided to use that time in the Library calming myself down, I bring a few novels and lay them on a table that only had one occupant on it. The boy had glasses and seems new he had curly hair that he packed at the nape of his neck.

" Hi, I'm Sarah" I introduced myself.

" Justin," he said " he looks at the book I'm reading then at my face"Ah you're that girl that knew Jason by his name"

"Is that what everyone is calling me?" he nodded. During my period in the library, I learned that Justin is actually a nice guy so we walked back together to the event hall we were arguing on Marvel and DC I was trying to tell him that Marvel is better but like me, he has a thick skull and won't listen to anything I say. 

The hall was full by the time we got there I pulled out two plastic chairs and went to look for Zayda so I can introduce my new friend, I located the idiot beside Stephanie and beckoned Justin to follow me. I sat down, Zayda looked at Justin weirdly.

The principle started out with a greeting the man looked so happy and jolly probably because of all the money he got from our parents.

" Welcome to Arson high your schedules will be a little different but classes are the same, we won't tolerate any nonsense from school girls are meant to leave first in any gathering any other meeting of the opposite sex will result in punishment. Food is meant to stay in the dining room snacks are provided in the common room, no pornography our wifi has banned every sign of porn sites so our students will be safe"

 A few boys nudged each other probably thinking of it as a joke. I looked around looking for nothing in particular but stopped when Jason's blue eyes caught mine I couldn't tear away unless it will be as if I am afraid of him or something and that's the last thing I want; for my reputation to be destroyed more than it already is.

I looked back at the principle as he was saying the benediction of thanks. I stood up when everyone else stood up and quietly exited in a line. My phone buzzed in my pencil case, it was a text message from Stephanie.

Tell me everything during lunch the message read.

During lunch, I worked on my homework while people were filing into the cafeteria so I was alone at my table my glasses at the bridge of my nose. I felt a tap on my shoulder so I turned around removing my earphones, to be met with an impatient Zach.

"I've been saying girl with the glasses for 3 minutes, I was starting to think you were deaf" I'll pretend  like what he said is not an insult,  that we've been in the same school since middle school and my name is still unknown to him.

" I'm sorry I was listening to when the party over, I'm sorry you didn't need to know that," I said, he smiled.

" Isn't earphones like old for this year?" he askes.

"Well, I have a tendency to drop my phone at different intervals so I use this as my back up just in case it slips I can catch it. Anyway is there anything you want to talk about?"

" Yeah, I wanted to ask why YOU know my cousin" The way he said you are like anyone else except me is allowed know him. What a way to change my perspective.

" Who put asshole in your cereal this morning" I murmured to myself.
