Seeking Strive by Arielle Shipp (read books for money .txt) 📕

"Yeah I noticed, I'm a display you can't touch but feel free to admire" I said , not realizing how cocky that must have sound until it exited my mouth. Then Valley stopped walking and stared at me. Did i sound that stuck up?

"OMG! I love that!" Valley yelled out as she pulled a little note book from out her pocket and a pencil from behind her ear and started writing.

"What are you doing?" I questioned

"Oh sorry, did I not mention that I was a song writer before?" Valley giggled as she kept writing. I don't remember her mentioning that, she probably did when my concentration was on some of the guys walking around. They all looked as if they could be on the run way.

"Valley that’s wassup!, you can write my songs when I make it big" I said as it nudged her to keep walking.

Valleys eyes grew wide as she looked at me.

"You’re a singer! Selena why are we so perfect for each other" she giggled.

"I don’t know, but I’m already happy I met you" I said as I gave off a genuine smile.

When we finally found the office after 10 minutes of searching, I realized how stupid we must have looked because apparently we passed it 3 times.

"Hi we're here to get our late slips for class." I told the lady at the front desk. I waited patiently but she just starred at us.  With that look on her face, I could tell her day has been one shit load of stress. “we didn’t finish our tour for new students” I said, hoping she would say something because it was starting to get weird.

“Give me your names “she asked as she pulled out the forms.

"Selena Ely and Valeria Tallit" I said. Valley had told me her real name when we talked earlier. She was a little embarrassed but told me after I asked if Valley was her real name.

"Here you go ladies", the office lady handed me the slips and sent us out.

Our first period was science, Valley and I had gotten the hang of how the school was set up so it didn’t take us long to figure out where our class room was.

 As we walk in, everyone’s eyes turns towards us.  I tried not to make eye contact with them and just walk to the mad scientist standing in front of the board who was obviously our teacher.

“I take it that you two are new here at Cole Brook!” the old man said as he sat his marker down and turned away from the board.

“Yes sir” we both said.

“Well my name is Mr. James; go find an empty lab table or a partner for today Miss Ely and Miss Tallit”.  I scan the room for an empty table so I wouldn’t have to pair up with someone else.  Then I noticed that the girls were practicing their mug shot at me while most of the guys were staring at me and some were winking and making whistle sounds. That just goes to show that there are dogs everywhere you go.

I spot an empty desk in the far back of the class room, so I ushered Valley to follow me over there.

Making my way to the table I see a guy sitting alone a seat behind us, and he looks so familiar.

That’s the ass from this morning! He looked dead at me but I acted as if I barely noticed he was there and just sat down.  Then the class room door opens and in comes this real live Barbie. She was tall with long golden blonde hair, sun kissed skin, and lips and boobs that looked like something was injected in them. With her green mini dress and tall black heels, she looked as if she just came out the box.

“Miss Halle Gordon you are as fashionably late as always, leave your note on my desk and take your seat” Mr. James instructed the walking rubber.  “Sorry sir, I just had to take care of a minor issue in the parking lot.” She smirked and walked to over the guy behind us, but before she sat down she looked at Valley and I for a few seconds. I guess Valley was thinking the same thing I was because we started giggling, but I didn’t realize how loud we were until heads started turning towards us. Then she sat down.  “Valley were you looking at her boobs too!” I said a little under my breath, which I’m confused why, because I really wouldn’t care if she heard me.

“YESS! I felt like her nipple was going to touch my face!” Valley said, but her voice wasn’t lowered at all. Now people were really looking at us, and I could feel the eyes of miss rubber burning the back of our heads.

 Soon after, the bell had rung and everyone was leaving. I took my time packing up so I wouldn’t get stuck in the traffic exiting the classroom door. Valley walked out with everyone else so she could make it to her History class across the school. As I grab my bag, I glance back and saw that rubber girl had already left but the guy was still there, then I realize that he is staring at me.  What is with this guy?

I start for the door and I can hear him get up also. I speed into the busy hallway to escape his sight. When I looked back he was gone.

“Now where is my locker?” I asked myself, scanning the numbers for 367.

 BAM! I found it but there were 3 guys standing in the way, so I couldn’t open it.

“Um excuse me; I need to get to my locker” I said nicely. They all turned and looked at me.

“Hot damn, are you new?” one said, looking me up and down, raping me with his eyes.

“So that’s the new girl people are talking about”, another one said while licking his lips. I’m not new to assholes but they damn sure frustrate me. Not only that, but they smelled like they had football practice for first period. “I don’t think I was being clear (clear my throat) can you please move your sweaty asses out of the way so I can get to my locker” I said, my tone made it clear that I was not in the mood.

“Oh, she’s sexy and a bitch”, the first one said, leaning in closer to me. I could feel my temper boiling up and I was about to explode. Right before I was about to go Compton on these guys, my voice was over shadowed by someone else’s.

“Isn’t there somewhere you guys should be” this deep voice stated, sending chills down my back from behind me.

“We were waiting on you” the third guy finally spoke up.

“well wait somewhere else”. The 3 guys blew their breath and walked off, and I turn around to see who was sticking up for me, though it wasn’t needed.

I turn around and find me looking at the same guy from the parking lot, and the same guy who sat behind valley and me in first period.

 “Hey I didn’t need your help, if anything I need you to stop following me".

The smirk on his face assured me that my attitude didn’t phase him.

“Well first, I’m not following you because my locker is right there, and I wasn’t helping you, those guys needed to be elsewhere” he replied bluntly and brushed past me.  I’ve never felt more stupid in my whole life. Something in me felt as if he just one upped me, so I needed to get him back. When I turned around to retaliate there was no one behind me. Did he just leave like that? Not even go to his locker...

Who is this new girl and why does she have this effect on me. I busted into the bathroom and ran into the stall to handle my grown problem. The same thing happened this morning when I asked her to move out of my parking space. I played it off cool but it was difficult walking back to my car, then it worsened when she ignored what I said and walked off. The way her body swayed. It made me feel uneasy that she had such effect on me, so I asked Halle to take her car elsewhere so I could feel in control again.
