Want
To Know You
{Chapter
Two}
Back home Emily showered and went to bed. The next day she awoke by the ringing of her silly alarm clock at about 7.00 am. Her mother came into the room and said: “Honey, time to wake up. You have to eat breakfast and then go to school. School starts 8.00 am, remember?” “I knooow, but my body tells me to keep on sleeping.” Said Emily still half asleep. “Too bad that you have to wake up!” said her mother and walked into the kitchen to make some breakfast. Emily could up not caring but the complaints of her body and dressed. She wore light blue jeans and a pink shirt, which said: BORN TO SHOP – FORCED TO GO TO SCHOOL. She put on baby blue eye shadow, pink lipstick and black mascara. When she liked the way she looked she grabbed her schoolbag and went downstairs into the kitchen. She ate her breakfast, went back upstairs to brush her teeth. After three minutes of brushing them she was ready and walked to school. On the way to school she met her best friend Shoanna.
At school they
walked straight to their lockers. Shoanna’s locker wasn’t near Emily’s so
they parted. When Emily’s locker came in sight she saw no other than Nick was
leaning against it. “Sorry, you’re leaning on my locker, could you step
aside, please?” she said. “Yeah, sure.” Nick said, “Hey, nice shirt…
you are in my music class, ain’t ya? Lesson starts in 5 minutes. Come with me?”
“…Okay…” said Emily, a little bit confused. On the way to the classroom
Nick said: “What’s your name?” “Emily.” She said. “Mine’s Nick.”
He said. “I know...everybody knows that.” Said Emily. “That may be but I
wanted to be polite!” said Nick and grinned. Then his friend Marc came walking
down the hall. “Hey, whassup, Nick? Oh who’s that girl?” Marc said and
they made that thing with their hands (no, not shaking their hands…the other
thing, know what I mean? I can’t think of a word for it). “She’s in my
class.” Nick said. “Okay…see ya later!” said Marc. “Yeah, bye!” said
Nick. When he and Emily reached the classroom it rang and the lesson started.
The both sat down. Nick sat three rows behind Emily.
The lesson started. “Good morning everyone.” Said Ms. Taylor, the teacher, “I have to tell you something. I decided to let you and a partner write and compose a song instead of writing another test. You’ll have to sing it at our school’s spring party!” The whole class groaned. “I’m sure it will be fun!” said Ms. Taylor, “I’m going to decide who you work with!” the class groaned again. “Shh! So…let’s start…Mary Luna and George Wallington…” she said. George rolled his eyes. He was very popular and Mary was a…geek. “Then…Alyssa Genovia and Anthony Wood…Emily Nueda and…” <<oh no! Please let it me someone nice!>> thought Emily. “…Nickolas Carter.” <<What? OH MY GOD!>> thought Emily and turned around. Nick smiled at her and gave her the thumb ups.
