Alone In A Crowded Room

Charlie walked into the school, his book bag over one shoulder.

 

"i-im michael mike for short..." Mike said in his usual shy voice

 

"I like the name Michael," Jenni replied as she shook his hand. "Well, Michael, can you help me find Room 207?"

 

Link sighed. I'm tired of having to do this every year. He shifted his small black backpack higher up and scrutinized the school.(I'm gonna make up what it looks like ok?) The red bricked, black roofed school looked just like the others. A throng of people streamed into and out of it.Getting out of his car, he weaved gracefully in and out of the people until he was inside the school. Finding his locker, he put his things in and grabbed his guitar pick and shut the locker door. It shut with a metallic clang.None of the other people in the hall even gave it a second glance. Link picked up his guitar and headed to strings, weaving through the people in a gate that was similar to dancing, so fluid and natural.

 

"yea follow me" Mike said

 

"Thank you," she said as she walked beside Mike. "You know, it's pretty hard trying to fit in at a new school, let alone a new country."

 

He went to his locker and put his books in it, taking out his English book. Same old, same old. he thought, I wonder if I'll actually make some friends this year.

 

Link brushed past Mike and Jenni. He would have collided with them if not for him pivoting in a split second. "My apologies," he said in a musical voice.

 

"u came from a different country?" Mike asked

 

"It's okay," Jenni replied, waving to Link before she turned back to face Mike to answer his question.

"Yes," she said. "Britain, actually. Can't you tell by my accent?"

 

((T.T everyone ignores me))

Link entered his classroom and sat down. he looked out the window at the overcast sky.

 

He shut his locker and headed for his class, tripping over an untied shoe lace and landing face first in front of Mike and Jenny.

 

"i really wasnt paying attention" Mike said honoestly

 

"It's okay; most people don't notice," Jenni reassured. She looked down and noticed Charlie sprawled out on the floor.

"Are you okay?" she questioned him as she helped him up.

 

"Yeah, I'm fine." he said, dusting himself off. "Shoe lace must have come undone." He knelt down and tied his shoe. "I'm Charlie, by the way."

 

"im michael" Mike said to charlie

 

"And I'm Jenni," she replied. "I'm new to this school. And this country, for that matter!"

 

The intercom crackled to life.We need you to dismiss Link please. The teacher nodded in his direction. Link stole a glance at the window and sure enough the sun was breaking through the clouds. He hurried through the hall, again having to dodge Mike, Jenni, and now Charlie. "My apologies," he murmured as he brushed past them.

"No problem!" he called out to Link, getting to his feet. "I hope you have fun here." he said to Jenni. Just then, the bell rang. "It was nice meeting you two, now if you don't mind, I need to get to my English class."
