chapter four
Chapter four:
Today is the first day at school and not like others im pretty much relaxed which is weird.
"Ivan, are you stressed out?" I asked with my mouth full. I could see him ignoring me as he stuffs his mouth with colorful cereal.
"IVAN" I yell, i am quite unpatient sometimes.
He jumps in surprise and answers with a simple 'no'.
Our mom interupts our breakfast by telling us we are going to be late if we dont hurry up, my mom works as a lawyer, always making the law in the family and choosing whose guilty like in a actual court.
As we both Ivan and i, and mom enter the car, i feel like a 8 year old who needs their mom to drop them to school.
________________________________________________________________________
The ride was long and awkward with small talks, the rest of the ride was my mom embarrasingly singing to the radio.
As i step into the school hallways, the urge of throwing up envades.
Not disgusted, just stressed now.
It is a pretty basic highschool
The 'Cussel highschool' is themed color blue, the lockers are dark blue, the walls half white, half light blue. And more i got more to do than worry about the walls.
The hallways are full, i can barely see my feet. I need to find the principals office for them to print my schedule..yay.
Till now i got no weird stares which is a good start, im starting to get used to not being popular and its pretty good.
Oh yes, the office. 3 knocks and a "come in!" greets me. I would have expected a bold suited guy but here is a hippie greeting me. The long straight hair attached in a ponytail and the red glasses, i had the need to ecplode of laughter. It will take time to get used to.
"Sit down, boy" he says with a gesture to the chair.
"Good morning, sir i would like a printout of the schedule of grade 12, here are my options...sir".
Ending it with a awkward smile.
Leaving the office with the sheet with my classes, i head through the hallway of death. My first class is chemistry and it is said to be the other side of the school.
Dammit.
Not like i had enough, the bell rings, meaning i had to run, but since were in highschool running isnt cool, fast walking is my only option.
As i fast walk through the hallway of sweat, i bump into some tall person aka my height to realize that it was a female ready to punch me in the face, i can understand her since i am the reason she going to be late. lets talk about where she would be placed in the schools social class ranking, i can bet that she is one of the popular mess who date people like me, but since i am trying to change i aint part of her list.
"Watch where you're going" she says onceagain my mouth opens but no sound comes out, leaving me practicely gawking.
i grabbed the courage and said "you better watch out or i can assure you you are going to regret it". that escalated quickly for my liking but what is done is done right?
me who thought i was up to a verbal battle, her presumed friend calls her "VERONICAA!! HURYY" as i can see i would have to report the battle another time.
walking again, i amthinking of that veronica 'it' girl and how i stood up to myself even though i wanted to change, if i want to change it doesnt mean i have to let people step on me, i still can defend myself but witouth being known as the badboy.
i sigh with relief when i find the s45 class, looking trhrough the small window of the door, they have already started. I knock and enter, having the whole class stare. Oh you must be Carlos Nieves, the principal informed me about you maye being late, would you like to introduce yourself"
i wasnt listening, my eyes has led on the curly head well i mean Leen, will take to get used to. Sitting in the third row next to that guy made me want to kick him in the face till his nose was turned upside down. Leens and my eyes met and hadnt left ever since but she looked more curious about who i was than unlike me enjoying the beauty of her eyes.
"Carlos?" and my eyes rise up to the teacher who waiting for a lameass introduction of myself.
"My name is carlos...,euuh i am from New jersey...."
"very good carlos, you can take a seat wherever you want except the last row, no one sits there", winking at me.
I sad down at the third row next to some pretty good looking girl unintentially since the girl i have already got a woman in mind; Leen.
Is this creepy?
Yes it is
Who are you?
I am your conscience.
Oh...., wait what?
Neverrrminndd 'fading'
I didnt realize i was frowning and staring blankly the whole time until the finger tap in front of my face.
"Arent you going to listen instead of doing that weird face of yours"
She says as she slips a short cheesy laugh at the end.
As confused as i was i turn my head completely toward her and say "what?" with a confused looking face. Seriously what the hell was going on?!
She ignores me as she is now more confused than i was. After a good 10 min of awkward silence. I notice her binder where her name was written 'Abigael Parker' thats a long name.
It isnt the only thing i saw, there is also graffitis where "gravity falls","star vs. The forces of evil" were written(seriously you have to watch these) i might be 17 but you're never too old for cartoons.
"I like that" i say trying to start a conversation since i really need a friend right now or just someone i know half way.
"Ah,.. very funny" she throws, not taking me seriously.
"No im serious, gruncle stan is my favorite to be honest the next is dipper. In 'Star vs. The forces of evil' i ship starco like seriously who cant, i like river too he's a cool dad.." when i talk about my loves (cartoon) no one can stop me, i go on and on and on.
I expected her to have those fangirl moment but instead she hugs me tight. HUGE MISTAKEE.
Carlos hates hugs and never hugged someone until now. I couldnt do anything, if i pushed her away, that would be so evil and i would be known as the guy who pushed away the girl's hug.
Silent scream for helpp. The cringe is rising till the level of my nose this shows how mush uncomfortable i am with hugs.
Today was a free day we didnt do anyhing in class, dont worry about the teacher making us go to the principals office for getting hugged.
The rest of the class was only gossiping about our favorite cartoons and tv shows. Shes a cool girl and i think were going
The bell rings and before going out the door abigael says
"Im abi-" before she finishes i end it by saying "-gael, i know"
shit shit shit why did i say that, why couldnt i just let her finish now i sound like a stalking creep but the truth is that, i just saw her name on her binder.
A bit confused she says bye and joins her friend.
SHIT,
Her friend, its.. is agh, its leen.
I am so dead, even though i only knew abi for so short time its like we were already friends. And told her some embarrassing stuff that i could handle her knowing but if leen knows she would find me weird.
They didnt look like simple friend they looked like best friends practicely sisters.
I wish we could atleast be friends,
