Chapter 2: The project

Chapter 2: The Project.

It's now september 23, 3 days after my birthday. My parents were fighting again, and I was overall depressed about it. 
I walked into social studies class that Morning only to see a stupid face. I sat down in a seat so far away from him, so that he couldn't make fun of me. 
Mr. Carey had started to continue his lesson about Asia during WWII. Then all of a sudden he said, "You are going to make a a 3D map about a country in Asia with your partners."
Crap! We already have a project this early into the year?
Then he annouced what country which pair is going to do, "Mia, Tori, you will have Russia. You guys also have to write an essay on how it's role was in WWII." Then he finished annoucing and told us to plan for the project. 
I went to where Tori was sitting and said, "Ok we both know that we hate eachother so lets just fininsh this project as soon as possible so that we don't anything to do with eachother."
"What ever." he said not paying attention to whatever I was saying.
"The Project is due in 2 weeks, So let's do this ASAP."
"I know that Moron.... Sunday. 1:00 At the library."
"Shouldn't we bring money for the supplies, genius?" I said.
"10$."
"Fine, then it's settled."
The bell rang and I went straight to biology. Which made me happy because Nicholas was in that class. 
I walked in and sat right next to him, "Hey, Nicholas."
He looked at me as I sat down, "Hey Mia! Why do you seem---'' he was interupted by Mr. Hofftizer, The teacher.
"Class we will now begin, please take your seats."
Whlie Mr.Hofftizer was talking, Nicholas tapped my shoulder, and passed me a folded up piece of paper. It said:
 Stupid Mr. Hofftizer!!! Anyway is something the matter? You look sad...:(
I looked at him, he looked like he was actually paying attention. I took the paper and wrote this:
I am a bit...Mr.Carey gave us a project.... :( 
I then tossed the paper back to him. And he started 2 read it. Then he took his pencil and started to write.  Then he folded it and passed it to me. I unfolded it and it read :
Ur still mad about that...?  It's alright he's nice when he wants to be.Believe me!! :)
       I wrote back, You sure...? I passed it back. He looked at me and smiled his bright warm smile, "I'm sure!" He whispered.
I smiled back.

(sunday)
I got out and walked outside, heading for the library. My dad had left the house because a fight my parents had, which was particially my fault. 
"How dare you let my daughter go with a guy."
"She's not going out!!! She's doing a project with a friend---"
I left the house at that point not wanting to hear any more of that. I felt loney for some reason. Then I started to remember my friends from my old school. And How they used to cheer me up when My parents fought. I felt as if I had no one to talk to. And to make it worse I had to spend my sunday with a jerk.
It started to rain, just a bit.
I hate my life, I thought to my self, why did I leave? It would have been so much better if I stayed. Then I remembered what Mona, June, and Jessica, told me on the last day of school, " No matter what we'll be always supporting you." June told me.
"Yeah! Whenever you're sad think about us. And remember how much fun we had together, Alright?" Mona said.
"Don't ever give up, know we'll be right behind you." Jessica said. I remember we were all crying that day. It was the saddest day of my life. But they all were still smiling and they still believed in me.
"HEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I heard from behind me. I turned to see Tori running up to me, "Where were you? Ur late!" he said looking at the floor, then he looked up at my face and said, "Why are you  crying?" He said in a mean voice.
"Eh I am?" I checked my face for tears, and he was right, I was crying. "It's none of your bussiness!" I said while whiping my tears. Then I headed for the cross walk, to go to the library. I waited till the light walk said to go, and when it did I went.
Then I saw a bright light (like from a car). The next thing I knew I'm on the ground on the other side of the street. 
''God damnit!! That freakin' driver." I heard, I looked up and saw Tori's blue eyes looking directly at me, "Are you ok?"
 He saved me? I blushed and immeadiatly pushed him away and said,"I-I'm fine."
Then we got of the floor. I looked at him again seeing a red liquid going down his face, "YOU'RE BLEEDING!!!!!!!!" 
"What...?" he put his hand on his face and checked, "Oh crap I am..."
I took his hand and took him to the park near the library, "Wait here." Then I went to the pharmacy and got band-aids and acohal swabs, then immeaditly went back to the park. He was sitting on a bench in the park. I sat down next to him and brought out the acohal swabs, and wiped the blood off his face, "What are you doing?" he asked.
"Just shut up." After that was done I took out the band-aids and put it on the wound, which was pretty big. As I was doing that I looked at his dark eyes. He was staring at me calmly.
For a mean guy he sure is good looking..."All done."
"Why...why did you do that...help me?" He asked.
"Why did I do that....hmm...maybe because you saved me?" 
"Don't you hate me?"
"Of course I do, but I'm responsible for this so I think I should take of it."
"Oh....anyway why were you crying?" he asked.
"I guess..I owe you an explanation...You see I was having a bad morning so I was thinking about my friends and how they would be there for me...I miss them u know?"
"Oh I thought that some guy broke up with you...but there's 2 reasons why that's wrong..."
"First reason...dare I ask?"
"You're in love with Nicholas.."
"Shut up" I whispered.
"That was the whole reason why you came to this school to see him again,"
"Shut up,"I said pissed of.
"And the second reason is that...You're way to UGLY to get a boyfr---"
"SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!" I punched him yet again and he landed on the floor, '"I'm leaving!"
"We have the project--"
"We'll finish it later. I don't want to be with a jerk like you!"
I left him on the floor surprised. As I was crossing the street, I looked back to see if he was alright. I saw him get up & brush himself off. But the weirdest thing I saw was that I saw his lips curl into a smile. He Was laughing!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY IS HE LAUGHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
