"ALEXI!!" Opal Patterson squealed from down the hallway. Opal crushed Me with a massive bear hug.
"Crush..ing...lungs..." I sputtered
"Whoops!" Opal giggled and let go I nearly faint and squatted to catch my breathe.
"It's soooooo good to see you back! It seems like forever!" Opal said smiling.
"Yup. New year, new me I guess." I said
Opal grabbed my hand and led me to my locker.
"Okay, here is your new locker! Next to mine of course!" Opal said.
"Thanks." I said and popped it open.
I put my books and notebook away carefully.
Suddenly, something caught my green eye. A handsome, browned eyed beauty guy.
"Oh... My... Lord.." I gasped.
"Oh! That's Jason. He's a new student here." Opal said.
"He's... Quite attractive.." I said staring at him.
"Someone's got a crush!" Opal sang.
I punched her shoulder as she let out a squeal.
"Okay,okay!" Opal lightly laughed
I rubbed my eyes as he stopped at his locker.
I grabbed Opal and ran inside the room. I sat her down near the
closet.
I could barley speak and make words but I managed to say
"You've got to help me."
"With getting him? Sorry hon' he's taken already. Some girl named.. Uh.. Oh! Olive!" She said.
My heart froze. WHY HER!?
Olive was an uptight snobby rich girl from Washington. She would never stop nagging about me wearing button downs or converse that don't match.
"Oh my gosh Alexi! You look like trash. Well don't you always?" She cackled.
I hate her.
"No, no, no, no, no, no,no.." I whispered.
"It's okay hon' I'm sure Olive is just paying him!" Opal said rubbing my shoulder.
"Of course." I grumbled.
The bell rung and just my luck, Olive and Jason walked in, holding hands.
