Fanon:Can't Let You Get Him: Chapter 2-First Day

I wake up at 1:45 AM-er...-6:45 AM here. I'm tired and still a bit confused on account of the whole timezone changing and all.

Heading downstairs, I see that my dad left for his buisness already, but left a note on our counter.

''I left for work already, but I got cereal so you can eat that for breakfast. Be sure to be good and make it to school on time. Love, dad'', it read.

I got my stuff ready and headed out, and I was on my jolly way until I bumped into someone.

"Oops, sorry!" I exclaimed. "I wasn't looking where I was going."

"You must be that new girl!" The person snarled. "Let me make your job at looking out a little easier."

He then grabbed my map and tore it up!

"What was that for?" I cried.

The person just laughed and walked away with some people following him.

"Don't mess with Randy in the future!" One of his followers called out to me, even though he knew very well that I didn't "mess with him" and that everything was an accident.

I sighed. How would I get to school now? I then realized that the person who teared up my map was most likely around the same age as me! I just needed to keep my distance and follow him to wherever he was going. I knew this was risky, but it was a risk I was willing to take.

~ I made it to the school, which was apparently called P.S. 38. It turned out that finding the office wasn't hard, since the school was so small, escpecially compared to my old school back in Hawaii. I talked to the secretary, who's name was Ms. Shipulski, and she handed me my schedule and a map of the city. Thanking her, I headed out of the office and to my homeroom class, which was apparently in a teacher named Mrs. Godfrey's class.

"Class, we have a new student," Mrs. Godfrey said. "Please welcome Delia Cood."

I looked around the room and saw that person who ripped up my map. I saw some other people as well, but one person caught my eye. He had black hair, and it was all spiky-looking.

"Gina," Mrs. Godfrey asked. "Will you please show Delia around the school at lunch?"

I looked around once more. A girl with glasses and blond hair looked up me, and then at Mrs. Godfrey.

"Yes, I can do that!" She answered with a smile.

Well, at least not everyone is as mean as that guy, I thought in relief.

"Okay now, settle down everyone," Mrs. Godfrey said to the class. "There are some other things we need to talk about."

When lunch started, I spotted that blond haired girl with glasses.

"Hi, you're Delia, right?" She asked me.

"Yep!" I confirmed.

"Okay, cool. I'm Gina, and I'm going to show you around our school!" The blond haired girl who's name was Gina told me.

"Sounds good!" I exclaimed. "I appreciate it."

"No problem!" Gina replied. "Let's start with our hall..."

After Gina showed me around and headed to the cafeteria to eat her lunch, I realized that I forgot to bring a lunch! Thankfully, I had brought a dollar with me, just in case I needed it. I headed over to a vending machine and looked for something I could afford. I found out the only thing I liked and was affordable was a bag of Cheez Doodles. (Actually, I like Cheetos, but they're pretty much the same, right?) I put my dollar in the vending machine and the last bag of Cheez Doodles popped out. I then headed to the cafeteria.

A few minutes later, I found a table to sit at. I opened my bag of Cheez Doodles and was about to eat some, when I heard someone shouting "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"

At the table next to me, a boy with glasses and a boy with darker skin rolled their eyes and headed toward the hallways. I then saw that spiky-haired dude come out of the hallway and started talking frantically to the boy with glasses and the boy with darker skin, who remained calm. I wondered what all the fuss was about.

I was probably staring for too long, because that spiky-haired boy saw me and came running over to me, with his friends following him.

"Hey, can I have some of your Cheez Doodles?" He asked. "There are none in the vending machine."

"Um, aren't there some Cheetos there too? They are pretty much the same, right?" I told him.

I must have made him mad somehow, because he stared at me and yelled "NO THEY ARE NOT 'PRETTY MUCH THE SAME'!"

"Sorry, sorry!" I exclaimed. "Here, you can have some."

"Thanks!" The spiky-haired kid said. "I'm Nate, by the way."

"Nice to meet you," I responded, smiling. "I'm Delia. See you around!"

Nate headed back to where he was sitting with the Cheez Doodles.

Well that was a bit odd! I thought. ''But I liked it. I don't know why, but I liked it. Maybe I should see him more often.''

I decided to follow him around in the halls before class. I just kept my distance so I didn't seem suspicious. I saw him talk to a few girls, but they quickly walked out of his way and whispered to each other. I also saw him meet up with another girl, and they talked for a bit.

Something happened when he talked to the other girls. I felt like I was getting a little tense and mad. Why was that happening? I didn't have time to think about it though. I had to get to my next class. Everything was normal for the rest of the day.

After school, I headed to the library. I wanted to see what books they had. But I ran into Gina instead. We talked for a bit and did some homework together. I felt happy knowing that I made a new friend on the first day of school.

When my dad finally came home from work, he asked me how school was. I told him that it was fine and that nothing interesting happened, and didn't mention the thing about Gina or the torn map. And I definitely didn't mention Nate, even though that was what I was thinking about the most.
