Buddie waited till the bell rang. She knew she couldn't concentrate. In her mind, it was filled with Grant, is he was going to lose his face, if he would wake up and scream. She wasn't sure, but she maybe even likes Grant! Buddie was supprised when Mr. Larson put a peiceof paper on her desk. On it, it said, "Algebra Test". "What?" people conplained. "A test on the first day??!!" Buddie wanted to agree with them, but kept her mouth shut. She was in enough trouble as it is. Taking her pencil, she wrote her name, Buddie Eubanks. "We will be taking this test for the last 5 minutes of this period. SO I WILL KNOW WHAT TO TEACH YOU." Mr. Larson spat out the last few words. Buddie scetched a silver wolf instead of answer math problems. She loved drawing, espessialy drawing wolves. For the next 5 minutes, on her paper was only a wolf. "Pencils down, pages to me!" Mr. Larson exclaimed. He walked around collecting the papers. Oh no!, thought Buddie.
Just 3 more mintues 'till the bell rings. Lily thought. Her history calss seemed to last forever too. Her mind wandered back to Chase. 'I wonder if his day is as boring as mine.' Shaking her head, mad how her day was turning out, she opened her notebook to the page where she drew hills and a wolf. It was so perfect. She closed her eyes and imagined her self running through the meadow with Chase. She opened her eyes and smiled to herself. She liked Chase.... he was her first high school crush!!
Chase sighed, he wanted to get out of class so bad, he thought 'Hang in there Chase, class is almost over..' He looked at the teacher, he was explaining something Chase did'nt care about. Chase looked up at the ceiling, he started counting how many tiles there were. Then a voice growled "Chase!" Chase looked towards were the sound came, it was the teacher, the teacher growled "Pay attention!" Chase nodded and then sighed. He started to think about Lily, he kept thinking 'Why do I keep thinking about her?! It's not right! Could it be?' Chase was left hanging after his own question.
Lily still watched the clock carefully. Still smiling about her new discovery. 'tick tock tick tock' the clock was just mimicing her. Why couldn't school be over!! Time would jsut need to skip a couple periods! Then she could get off of campus and talk to Chas--. THE BELL RANG!!! 'Yes!' Lily almost shouted as she jumped out of her chair and half skipped out of the classroom
The nurse finally let Grant sit up, "I'll go tell the principle why you didn't attend your classes." the nurse said softly as she walked to the principle's office. Grant looked at his face in the mirror, a bandage was across the bridge of his nose & one on his forehead. Other than a cut on his bottom lip it wasn't as bad as it had looked when first got there. He heard the bell ring & waited to see if Buddie would pass by.
Buddie slowly go up. Remembering Grant, she hurried. Slamming her books into her cute casual messengerbag, she took off without saying any 'byes'. Speedwalking, she raced to the nurse. Grant was sitting up. That's a good sign, Buddie thought. She opened the doornob and raced in. "You're up!" Buddie exclaimed. Then, she whispered, I - I was thinking about you during class. I thin- think I discovered i like you." Buddie's face was red, but she didn't care.
Grant had jumped abit when Buddie came in, but quickly smiled at her. He blushed at her when she told him how she felt. Grant was so shy he couldn't say anything at the moment. He kept smiling at her shyly showing he liked her too. He carefully tried to down of the medical bed & quietly walked over to Buddie trying not to seem so shy.
Chase gathered his things at his desk, he was about to leave when someone snapped "Chase! Come here." Chase thought 'Oh boy, I've already made an enemy out of a teacher...' he turned around and walked over to the teacher, he asked "What is it?" The teacher looked up from his papers and said "Chase, I'm going to warn you now, you do any goofing off in my class and you and the principal are going to know each other really well." Chase wanted to say something to protect himself, but decided not to, he nodded and said "Yes sir." He turned around and walked out of the classroom, he thought 'Great...'
Buddie put her hand into Grant's. She went to their lockers, stopped at Grant's first, and then went to science class together. Buddie tried no to show it, but she was sooo happy! She loved Grant, Grant liked her, and, to her, everything went down peacfully, even when Grant injured his head. They passed a group of guys. "What happened to your head, stupid?" One asked snobbily. "Oh, do shut up or ur never going to see daylight again." Buddie ment it. People were scared of her slaps. Smiling more, they went to class together.
Grant looked down at his feet when the kid had commented on him. The smile he was wearing faded & was replaced by a dull look. He watched as the guys passed them. Grant was used to all sorts of names that people called him. Like freak, idiot he didn't really mind being called names. But it still effected him alot.
