When I Found Myself

Chapter 2


Ahh...Spanish. Something I'm actually good at. I walk in for 2nd period. And whose in there other than the great Ty. The only seat left is the one beside Ty. I take a seat, angry. Now he was going to ruin my favorite class.
"Hola class!" Ms. Retina says.
"Hola." We all reply back.
"Who can tell me what today is?" She asks. Jimmy Porker raises his hand,"Yes, Jimmy?"
"Lunes." Ms. Retina smiles.
"Good. And what do we remember about Spanish days of the week." Jimmy raises his hand again. "Yes, Jimmy?"
"They are lower-cased."
"Correct. Oh, and it looks like we have a new student." She says, noticing Ty. All of the students head turn to Ty. I continue to stare at Ms. Retina. She's a younger teacher. She has these bright blue eyes and curly blond hair. It always seems like she has a tan, even in the winter. She doesn't have an accent or anything. Must be tanning beds.
"Ty Hender." Ty says. I guess Ms. Retina asked who he was.
"It's nice to have you here. What do we say class?"
"Hola Ty." Everyone says, except for me.
Class is soon over thankfully. "Hasta manana, students! See you tomorrow!" She yells to all of us as we squeeze out of the door and into the hallway. I quickly rush to third period math. At least Harver is there. That's when I turn to my side.
"Holy crap!" I say, almost having a heart attack. Ty's there, walking and keeping up with me.
"Sorry. Scared?" He says, challenging.
"No." I say back, and glare at him.
"What class you have next?"
"None of your business."
"Someone's fiesty." He mumbles to himself. I stop then and there.
"Why won't you leave me alone?" I yell at him. He isn't phased. "Go find someone else to follow around and bother!" I continue walking fast pace. I can feel the smirk on Ty's face. I want to smack it off, but resist the urge. I promised my aunt no detentions for at least this quarter. Otherwise, I would happily suckerpunch this guy.


I walk into math and see Harver. He looks up from his notebook and spots me. He smiles and waves me over to a seat next to him. I sit down and I see Harver eyeing Ty.
"Who's that guy?" He asks, suddenly.
"Some annoying new kid. He won't leave me alone." Harver's still glaring at Ty, and Ty is glaring back. "Uhh..sorry to interupt this staring contest, but do you have an extra calculator?" I ask. Harver snaps out it.
"Yea..yea." He gets in his binder and gets out the calculator. Ty is sitting two seats ahead of me, because some jock is sitting in front of me.
"You okay?" I ask Harver, who's still eyeing Ty suspiciously.
"Fine. Why do you ask?" He says, returning his gaze to me.
"You're looking at Ty kinda funny." I say, almost laughing.
"He's just one of those guys..."
"One of what guys?"
"Nothing.." He says as Mr. Gamagutchi begins class.
