I got up and got ready for school. I threw on an old dirty pair of dark blue jeans and one of my favorite hoodies that said "run for fun" on the front. I did track and field since I was 10 but had to quit after my mom died. I also played basketball and I started that when I was 7. Man did I miss sports.
I went downstairs and threw my hair up in a messy bun. Then I grabbed one of my brothers granola bars for lunch. My brother is out of town for the week so it made it easier for me to steal his food.
The first half of the day was the same as usual, quiet and boring. I couldn't wait for my last class, which was my favorite subject, honors English. I walked in and sat in the back of the class. It was one of the 2 classes I had with Ponyboy. There were no other greasers in the class so you could tell Pony felt weird, being the low guy in the class and all. But Pony was friends with a really popular red head socs named cherry. He always sat next to her and they always paired up.
The teacher handed us a packet and a book. "Class you will be doing this with a partner. I will give you some time in class but not much" She said in her strict voice. Cherry and pony imidietly looked at each other once she said partners. "But" she said while looking for a paper " I am picking your partners. Everyone is always with the same person and I wanna change it up." She kept listing off the pairs and then she said "Ponyboy and Claire" I was happy but nervous. I mean I'm going to have to talk to him; what if I say the wrong thing?
She explained the project and gave us the last 15 minuets of class to discuss our projects. Ponyboy walked over and sat in the desk next to me. I'm surprised he even knows who I am. "Hi I'm Ponyboy" he said smiling pulling out his notebook "I'm Claire" I said shyly looking at the requirements sheet. "Do you wanna meet up tonight" he asked. "Um sure who's place?" I really hoped he said his even though my brother was out of town and it'd be ok, I just didn't want him to see my room. He'd think I'm nasty or something. "Well there's always tons of boys around my place and it looks like trash" I've seen it on the outside but never on the inside. "Ok we can go to mine" I said . Great. Fascinating . He's coming to my house. Woohoo.
