As soon as I set foot into class, all eyes were on me. What did I murder someone?

I quickly found a seat, at the back of the class, and waited for directions from Mrs. Jones. If there's one important detail you need to know about me, it's that I care about my grades. You can say I'll go into full panic mode if I have anything lower than an A.

Everyone's murmers where interrupted by someone writing on the whiteboard. Mrs. Jones wrote her name in nice cursive letters and jotted down what she wanted us to take out. When she moved out of the way it read " Please take out a peice of lined paper and a pencil."

When everyone had what was needed, Mrs. Jones faced the class and smiled. "Welcome to your Senior Year Homeroom Class," she beamed," I want to make this year super special for each and everyone one of you. Respect, integrity, dedication, and excellance are some of the quilities you will need in order to appeal to my goodside and well like you kids call it "survive."

A group of kids at the front of the class began to snicker at someone's joke. Mrs. Jones frowned," Is there something funny Mr. Wright?"

Oh great Logan Wright is in my class. As in Captain of the football team Logan Wright. I mentally slammed my face on the desk. If he's here then that means Mackenzie is too. Great.

Logan and Mackenzie had been dating since Freshman year. Well I'm not sure if they really dated or still were due to the constant times they cheated on each other. Maybe they were Friends With Benefits. Either way Logan Wright was her property and no one said otherwise.

I waited for his response and could'nt help notice the whole class was too.

"No, not at all Mrs.---," he glanced at the board," Jones," he smiled.

She looked at him sternly and turned her attention back to the class. "I want all of you to write down five things on your paper," she said," The first is your name, the second is your favorite show, and the last three are to be details about yourself." Mrs. Jones set her timer. (honestly that stresses me for some reason) "Do you all understand," she asked mostly to Logan. Everyone nodded and set to their task.

After 10 minutes the timer went off. I put my pencil down and went over what I had put down. I soon realized that no one was passing their papers up. No, anything but that.

"Now I want to hear what you guys wrote down," Jones said.

And I'm dead.

"Now the purpose of this is to get to know each other. I will go by each and everyone of you ,and you will read off what you have."

When she was done explaining, she called on the first person in the first row. My attention was caught by the janitor outside picking up leaves. For some reason I was reminded of Noah. I went through the events of this morning and couldnt help but smile.

I was veered back into reality when Logan was up. He stood up casually smirking and cleared his throat. "My name is Logan Wright and my favorite channel is Sports Center," he winked at Mackenzie and continued," I'm Mercy High's Quarterback, I enjoy partying on the weekands, and I like to break the rules."

Mrs. Jones looked baffled ,but smiled tightly and moved on to the next person. Surprisingly (not) it was Mackenzie. She stood up making sure to take her time.
