Damn, teachers and their eyes in the back of their heads. Damn Linda and her shitty attitude. Damn Lexi and her goo-goo eyes for Matt and his oblivious self. Damn-Someone cut me off of my continous complaints with a tap on my shoulder causing me to jump up from the grass.
"Hey, do you always space out like that?"Matt said as he sat down next to me.
Sigh."No, Matt-kun...but it does feel nice being in another world like that." He flinched as I said Matt- kun but otherwise didn't seem to register my words.
We stayed silent, him looking out at Wammy's while I lied down next to him, my eyes closed.
"Is she sleeping?" Mello says and I feel his presence on the other side of me.
I open my eyes and look straight into his."Mello, hey, it's good to see you."
As the words are out of my mouth I instantly regret them because I hear MAtt mutter beside me, "sure call Mello just Mello and me 'Matt-kun'" and he is soon glaring at Mello. Mello doesn't notice because he was watching my hands in his bag trying to find a chocolate bar.
"Why'd you greet me like its been a long time since you last saw me?" he asks looking at my face now.
"It's been an extremely long day since lunch and I have no classes with you after lunch. Sorry, was it weird." I must have looked concerned because he blushed and quickly replied,"NO, no...just curious. He finally looked at the ground and handed me the chocolate bar I hadn't found.
Matt finally stopped glaring at Matt and looked pityingly at me.
"I'm sorry Draxi... I forgot."Matt apologized.
Mello looked up suddenly and asked, "What happened?!?"
I sighed and was just about to tell him when I saw Lexi rushing over."Wait till Lexi gets here," I say.
Lexi was walking quickly and she had a look that said she had a purpose.
"Tell me what happened with Linda right now!" she said as soon as we were in hearing range.
I sighed once more and then began my tale of my last period in the day...Language Arts.
"Okay, so I was about 5 minutes late to Language Arts, thanks to Matt," I begin, punching Matt on the shoulder, " and the teacher is all like 'Draxi, I know you are new but please starting coming to class on time.' I say sorry and take my seat but then Linda starts passing notes and talking about how Jennifer and Samantha were blah, blah, blah. She was talking so much I couldn't hear the teacher when she called my for a question and ended up getting detention because I finally passed an angry, lecture like note back to Linda and the teacher, without even looking, says 'Draxi no passing notes.' I yelled at Linda for being sooo stupid, preppy, and the snobbiest person I've met and that as soon as I met her I knew that I couldn't be her friend and that I would drop her. Roger heard me and bam, I was hated by every girl in this school and got dissappointed looks from every teacher I passed...UUUGGGGGGHHHH!!!"
Everyone was silent before Lexi said, "Well, seems its time for me to see if I'm dropped off her list or if I have to do it." She got up.
"Lexi, nooo. Don't! Please let her decide for herself. Please!! I don't want you to be hated like me...Lexi"
She stares at me for a long time then leaves.
"Lexi..what?"
She turns back and smiles, "Don't worry, sis...but I'm pretty sure you should get ready to be compared to me alot now." She laughs and walks away.
