Mated With Five Boys

"When someone is crying, of course the noble thing to do is to comfort them.But if someone is trying to hide their tears, it may also be noble to pretend you do not notice them."- Lemony Snicket

The day passed without a single hitch, besides the whole Axel incident that happened during first period.

Turns out I had Biology with Angelo, math with Kina, and lousy PE with both Rylan and Axel and even Camila was in gym class as well.

I grabbed the same notebook that Mrs.

Porter had giving me (I had to use the same notebook for every class.) and looked over at Rylan who was standing next to me.

He picked up his government notebook and shoved it into his bag, which made me mentally cringe.

His bag was a mess, he had loose papers that were cramped and scattered into his bag, and the few papers that did manage to get into folders were sticking out from the corners.

His lack of organization made me uncomfortable.

"Tl meet you at my car, okay?"

Rylan said, putting the landfill I mean, bag over his shoulders.

"Yes, Sir"

I mock saluted.

We walked over to the door and waited for the bell to ring so we could leave.

"There are 3 minutes left of class, none of you should be lining up at the door.What are we? In kindergarten?° Mr.Hipp spoke from his desk.

"Besides, I dismiss you, not the bell"

He added on.

I sighed annoyed, Mr.Hipp was an older man that took his job way too seriously.

He had light grey hair that looked like he hasn't brushed it in weeks and silver I glasses that rested at the border of his nose.

"If the bell doesn't dismiss us, then what's the point of it even being there?"

I huffed quietly to myself.

Apparently, Rylan had heard what I said because he started crackling at me.

I glance over at him from the corner of my eye over to him, satisfied that I made him laugh.

After the long torturous 3 minutes, the bell finally rang.

I've never been so glad to get out of a class in my life.

"Wait!"

Mr.Hipp stopped us.

The whole class simultaneously groaned and turned our attention back to our wicked government teacher.

"Have a great day"

He smiled evilly at us.

What a dirty rotten teacher.

The students rolled out of the room, entering the hallways that were crowded tight with kids going in every direction.

I looked around for Rylan but I lost him in the sea of people, it's moments like this where I wished I had better genetics.

If I wasn't so dang short I might be able to see where the hell I needed to go.

In all honestly, I'm not even sure how to get back to the main entrance of the school that Rylan and I entered this morning.

How was I suppose to get back to his car when I had no idea where it's at? As the hallways cleared I tried to find something that I remembered seeing earlier this morning, but nothing looked familiar.

I let out a deep sigh, what am I going to do now? I kept walking the now completely emptied halls until I finally saw a set of double doors that led outside.

I pushed them open and walked out, from the looks of it, I'm guessing I'm at one of the sides of the school.

At least you finally made it outside.

I couldn't agree with myself more.

I started walking in the direction that I thought was where the front of the school was when something grabbed my attention from the corner of my eye.

I looked over at the mysterious shadow that was leaning against the wall of the school.

I squinted my eyes to try to get a better look at them but it was too dark, the shadow of the school masked them well.

From how large the person was I'm certain it was a guy or maybe, a rather large girl.

"Hello, Mia."

The deep voice said, stepping out from the darkness.

Immediately recognized the boy from English class, I don’t know what his name is though.

He had black hair that laid easily on his head and hard, piercing blue eyes, that for the record looked hollowed out.

He also had a cigarette placed between his lips, which made me frown.

Cigarettes are disgusting.
