Through all first period, I had to help Alexander with the Order of Operations. I think he really got it; he just wanted to get me to talk. I was secretly angry that he would do that, but I still don't know if he really was doing that.. Maybe he just really didn't get them?
Either way, it was annoying...
Thankfully, the bell rang and I picked everything of mine up and walked out of the classroom. Then, I walked outside and into the front of the school where we would meet for Gym. I saw Katrina there waiting for me. Soon, Brittany arrived too. "Hey, Lolita!" Katrina said. I smiled at her and nodded, saying a quiet "Hi..." back. Then, I sat down on the bench with them and waited for our coach to get outside.
Brittany, Katrina, and I just talked about anything really. Since there was no sign of the coach yet, I pulled out my cinnamon gum and popped one into my mouth. Brittany gasped and said, "Aw! I want one!" She said that a little too loudly, but thankfully, no one really paid that much attention to what we were talking about. Letting out a sigh of relief, and sending her one of my "Don't-do-that-again!" glares, I gave her a piece of gum.
She smiled sheepishly at me and quickly grabbed the gum, stuffing it into her mouth as fast as she could. I smiled slightly. Then, I reached into my backpack and pulled out my new cell phone that I had bought myself. You see, I had to save up money for about 4 years to actually get one. I had wanted one so bad and when my birthday came, my parents didn't get me one. But, oh, they got me something 'better': a slap across the face, a punch in the stomach, and a throw across the room.
Anyway, so I got my cell phone out and showed it to Katrina, telling her that I had received a text message by someone called, Benjamin. I had no idea who that was. And, only my group of friends knew that I had a cell phone. "Weird..." She muttered. "Yup..." I nodded. "So, you have no idea who that is?" She asked. I shook my head slowly. Her eyes widened slightly. "That is s-"
Katrina was cut off by the coach walking in with none other than.... him. Joy... I thought. I rolled my eyes slightly. "Class, this is Alexander. He is in 7th Grade and is new. Lolita, would you please help him?" She asked. I almost slapped myself in the face.
No! I will not help him! He is stalking me! STALKING ME! NO! NO! NO! I thought madly.
But, I looked calm on the outside and gave a slight nod. The coach walked away and I heard Alexander gasp. "Lolita! You are in this class too?! Wow! We must have the same schedule or something!" He said. I stared blankly at him and Katrina nudged me.
I sighed and grumbled, "Fine. Come one... I will help you..." I walked beside him and into the gym with Brittany and Katrina snickering behind me. Occasionally, I would turn around and glare at them, but they only seemed to stop for as long as I was glaring at them.
Soon, we arrived inside the gym. We had to sit the way our last names were. Katrina's last name was Wright. So, she sat at the end. My last name was Crest, so I sat up front. Sadly, Alexander's last name started with a Da: Davids. So, he had to sit by me.
First, we did our stretches. We touched ours toes, stretched up and down, did a few crunches, sit ups, jumping jacks, and push ups. Then, as we all stood up and sighed an exhausted sigh, I walked over to Katrina and Brittany, with Alexander following me.
"Alright," Said our coach. "You will jog for 2 minutes then walk for 4 minutes. OK?" Everyone groaned and I giggled at how it sounded. Then, the coach yelled, "Go!" and we took off running - err, jogging. I jogged slowly, not really caring whether or not I was running fast enough, and I started talking a little to Brittany and Katrina.
Alexander was right behind us listening to our conversation, which made me mad. So, I made sure that we started talking about something that I know he would not want to hear about. "So, Brittany. Do you have any pads that I could borrow?" I asked. From the corner of my eye, I saw Alexander make a face and slow down a bit. I smirked.
Brittany and Katrina looked at me and I whispered what I just did into their ears. They snickered again and nodded. "Ok, walk!" We heard the coach yell and we slowed down, with someone running into my back, causing me to fall.
"Ahh!" I gasped. I closed my eyes and waited for the impact of the hard, cold, wooden floor. It never came. Slowly, I opened one eye and saw that Alexander, who had a shocked look on his face, was actually holding me up. Now, both my eyes had shot open and were now wide with shock. I felt my cheeks heat up and I pulled away from him, muttering a thanks.
"Y-Yeah..." I heard him stutter out, but I didn't look at him. I just focused anywhere but him. From behind me, I heard Brittany and Katrina snickering and I sent them my famous, "Do-you-want-to-die" glares. They immediately stopped, all the funniness washing away.
I just shook my head and continued walking ahead, shaking slightly. Katrina and Brittany slowly caught up with me. "You okay, Lolita?" Brittany asked. I sighed and whispered, "Well, I had to show someone who has the same schedule as me where do go and what to do, and then I was just embarrassed with him!"
Suddenly, I remember that I had a piece of gum in my mouth. Where was it now? I looked around frantically. I whispered this to Katrina and Brittany and they stopped dead in their tracks. "Uh-oh!" Katrina whispered.
I nodded and we kind of looked around innocently while we were walking. Suddenly, the coach said, "Wait! I found a piece of gum on the ground! Who was chewing gum? You guys know that you are not allowed to chew gum in this class!" My heart almost stopped as I looked at Katrina and Brittany. They looked at me sadly, knowing that I was going to get into trouble.
Nobody in the gym claimed the gum and the coach just sighed and let us go back to walking. As she walked out to throw the gum away, I let out a sigh of relief. "Phew.. That was close..." I said. They nodded.
After a while of us walking, we stopped and walked into the middle of the gym. Coach explained what we were going to do: Medic Dodge Ball (A/N: I have an account on FanFiction.net and on my story, it has Medic Dodge Ball. I am not stealing. It is my own account. Don't believe me? Mail SasoSaku-DeiSaku on Fanfiction.net and ask. It is me.)
We had to have two different teams. One each team, there would be only one medic person. The people on each team could not go past their own yellow line. If you were hit above the chest with the ball, then the person who threw it was out; if you caught the ball, the person who threw the ball was out; if it went past 2 minutes, you had to throw the ball on the floor and let someone else catch it; if the ball hit you, then you were out.
I was chosen on a team that was not with Katrina or Brittany...but Alexander! It was almost as if I was being punished for something! Maybe it was for the gum?
I sighed and tried to stay as far away from him as possible. "Go!" The coach yelled. I grabbed a ball and threw it, hitting their medic. I smirked as their medic was already out. Easy win now.
I looked over my shoulder and saw them all looking at me, surprised, yet excited that we could actually win. Then, my eyes landed on Alexander and he was staring deeply at me. I was confused so I tilted my head to the side, but then saw something from the corner of my eye and swiftly moved left as a dodgeball was aimed at me.
I was again given surprised gazes and I blushed slightly, trying to ignore them and look away. Two balls were coming towards me and I could only block one. As the other came flying towards me, a guy on our team, named Billy, stepped in front of me, taking the hit for me. My eyes widened and I blushed slightly, touched that he would actually do that.
Our medic was about to touch Billy to get him back in, when a ball came flying towards her. I sighed slightly and tried to go in front of her. But, I was a little slow and it missed my finger slightly. I frowned and it hit her side. But, no one was mad at me. They were a little sad that our medic was out, but they were fine knowing that I at least tried to help.
Now I was standing there and trying to dodge so many balls, when one hits me in my stomach. I gasped in pain, but I fixed my face so it wouldn't show. I bit my lip and sat back down with Billy looking at me, confused. I didn't look him in the eye which only seemed to make him more suspicious.
I sat down and looked both ways and, after making sure that no one was looking, grabbed a dodgeball that was lying on the ground next to me and threw it at Katrina's arm. She was out. She stared at me blankly for a moment and I stared back at her and she chuckled softly before sitting next to me.
We started talking, and of course, the bell decides to ring just then. So, my face looked somewhat like this: -.-'''
I sighed as I went to get my backpack and made my way back to the school with Katrina and Brittany following me. When we entered the doors, Brittany made a right and said goodbye as she started leaving to go to her class. Katrina and I made a left and started going towards our classes.
Katrina went to her speech class as I said goodbye to her and I went off to Language. I looked around and saw that Alexander wasn't in this class. "Phew..." I said, sighing in relief and walking to the back of the room and to my partner desk.
Just then, the teacher walks and of course says, "Class, today, we have a new student," OH. MY. GOD. I thought. "his name is Alexander! Alexander, why don't you go sit by-" Don't say it! I thought. "Lolita?" The teacher finished her sentence.
I slammed my head on my desk. "Hey, Lolita! We have the same class again! Wow!" He grinned and then turned his head back to the front of the room.
I closed my eyes and slammed my head on my desk.
I am going to die in this class aren't I?
