Chapter 1: First Day
I hopped out of bed, my alarm clock buzzing loudly. I hit the snooze button. Today is the day Shane and I become high school students.I made my way to the bathroom and brushed my teeth rapidly, but thoroughly.
My mom called me down for breakfast and 'the talk'. My mom wants to make sure I'm educated on boys. I always told my mom I won't date until college because that relaxes her. She is my mom so of course she's gonna worry, especially when it comes to boys. "Nattie!", my mom called again and I rushed down the stairs.
"I'm coming," I said while I ran to the kitchen.
"I made your favorite," My mom said with a smile. There was cereal on the counter top and a cup of milk. "Yea, my favorite," I muttered. I sat down on my stool.
"So high school boys only want one thing. Well unless they're like Shane Gray," She said tilting her head in thought.
I smiled big. Shane is my best friend and also my neighbor. I've known Shay since we were in diapers. He's like a brother to me. I can go to him with anything, Shane is like my Mr.fix-it.
I ate my cereal in case she wanted to ask me about crushes. She walked into her bedroom.
"Speaking of Shane, he wanted me to give you this" She entered the kitchen with a silver necklace dangling in the air. It was a Locket.
"Whoa, why would he give this to me?" I said while taking the necklace out of her hand. My mom smiled raising her eyebrows and I knew what she was thinking.
"We are just friends mom,"My mom nodded and told me to get dressed.I headed to my room to pick out an outfit.I'm not really fashion Savy. I ended up wearing a teal dress with my black converse. I checked myself in the mirror, to make sure I'm decent.
My outfit seemed to be alright, but my hair is a mess. I've been told I'm a wild sleeper. Guess this is just proof, I laughed. I brushed my hair until it was straight. I put Shane's hat on my head, We always borrow things from each other. Despite the fact we're different genders.I grabbed my backpack and flew down the stairs.
Shane was standing at the foot of my staircase. He shook his hair and took my bag.
"We missed the bus, so we're gonna walk."
"I don't mind, walking is better for planet earth anyways"
Shane and I made our way to school.
"So did your mom give you the necklace?" He said while Shaking his hair.
"Acually, she did." I pulled the Locket out of my backpocket. "Thanks for getting me this, it's really pretty."
I looked at him and he smiled "Just like you."
My cheeks grew hot and I laughed.Shane looked confused and I just shook my head. Guess he didn't notice my little blush and I'm glad he didn't.
After that awkward silence we were on school grounds."Wow, we are so not in middle school anymore." There was an huge crowed of teens. Most of them looked like adult or just plain scary.
Move!This braulicy guy said to Shane and I.We stepped aside emediatly.Shay grabbed my hand and rubbed it soothingly.
"Welcome to high school, Nattie." He handed me my backpack. I slung it aroung my shoulder. We walked through the crowed of 'Animals' and headed straight towards the Main Office."Do you want me to put your necklace on for you?"
I nodded, he bent down and swept my hair behind my back.I felt his breath on my neck. Shane clicked the necklace into place and the locket hung over my heart.
"Thanks Shay,"I stood on my toes to kiss him on the cheek."We should get our schedule."
We asked the lady at the front desk for our classes. She handed us our class routines and sighed. Shane and I walked out of the office swiftly.
"Cross your fingers, hopefully we'll be in the same class." Shane said. Then on the count of three we cheeked each others sheets. Shay and I got Lucky we have all the classes together.
Our homeroom is Colonary arts, room 106. We found our way there no problem.Shay and I took our seats.
"Hello boys and girls. My name is Mr.fitz and I'll be your home room teacher. Today is the first day so we'll be getting to know each other." Great this teacher will be nothing but fluff. I can tell by his posture and his name. Mr.Fitz will be such a push-over.


Chapter 2:

It seemed like everyone here is gonna be nice. So far I've made two friends. Kaylin and Ariel was their names. Shane made friends too, their names were Ryan and Chaz. I think. High school is pretty much like middle school. We changed from class to class. Until finally it was lunchtime. The only time us teens get to be loud and annoying.
I walked into the Cafe linked with Kaylin and Ariel. The tables here were set up in cliques. It was the Cheerleaders and Jocks. Nerds in the whole west wing and the Loners and Emo's right by them. If people are loners then why do they like to be together?
So far I'm not in a Clique I guess I'm just Normal. I sat down between Shane and Kaylin took a bite of my home made sandwich. Kaylin cleared her throat.
"I've seen you in the halls today." She was Clearly talking to me. I swallowed and said really? She responded "Yup! Let me tell you by the way, you guys are the cutest couple."
I turned to Shay and laughed. People always assume we're together."We aren't a couple," I said still in hysterics.
β€œThen why did Shane give you that necklace?” She pressed. I had made an observation, Kaylin is really nosey. Her question was good though. Why would shane give me a Locket.
"I gave it to her because she wanted it," Shane said. I turned to him in confusion. Maybe I had asked and just forgot. "We were at the mall passing the jewelry section and she couldn't take her eyes off of it."
Now I remember we were at the mall shopping for a sundress. My mom goes to all of these fancy dinners and I had to get 'dolled up'. I can't believe he remembered and I didn't.
Kaylin nudged me, " Well you could've just told me that instead of beating around the bush." I Flashed a fake smile towards her and Shane chuckled.
Ariel Passed me a note that read:

Ik Kaylin's annoying write. Am I the only one who's noticed shane is hot?Oh and I heard that after this the school day is over.
-a

Ooh someone has a crush on Shay. What does she mean the school day is over. It's only two O'clock. I guess thats just high school for ya,hu. The final bell rang and we exited the building.
Shane took my bag again and we headed home." So how was your first day of high school, nattie."

"It was alright, just like middle school. How was your day?"He stopped walking. Automatically I stopped too."How was your day?" I repeated the question until I got an answer. Shane dug his hand in his pockets and did a small hair-flip.

"It had it's high and low point." He looked at me,but I could tell his mind was else where."I'll text you later," Shay handed me my bag and walked into his house. I walked to mine.

"Mom I'm home!" I said when I stepped foot in the living room. My mom came out with my shirt on. It looked like she was going to tear it." Why are you wearing that?" I said trying not to laugh.

"I'm tryna be hip mama!"My mom shook her hips. "Ya know down wit the youngsters."

"Mom No one talks like that, and please take my top off." I walked upstairs.

Well that was just embarrassing. Thank god she didn't do that in public. I hopped on my bed and moaned. I didn't do much today but I'm tired and bored. If I had no homework, what am I gonna do?
I looked at the ceiling and twirled the Locket in my hands. I Know! Shane is next door I can always play hoops with him. I changed into my basket ball shirts and a white top.I walked down the stairs.

"Mom I'm going to Shanes," I walked out the door and Open Shanes door.

"Is that you justin?" Pattie said sounding worried. I followed her voice and I found her crying on the staircase.

"I'm sorry, Where's Shane?" I sat down next to her. I had just left Shay here a few minutes ago. What could he possibly be doing?

"I don't know. He said he was going to get some air. I assumed that he was hanging out with you."

I stood up. I know exactly where Shane went, Barry Park. I told Pattie I'd bring him back and i set off to the park. When I entered the park I seen Shay sitting under our tree. When I got closer I could see that Shay was crying.

"Shay what's wrong?" His head snapped up and he starred at me. Shay told me that he missed his dad. "That's it? He should be at your house in like ten minutes. You don't need to cry"

"You don't understand. My mom and dad are divorced. I haven't seen my dad since 7th grade." Shane wiped his tears.
"I'm sorry i didn't tell you. I thought you might treat me differently."

I sat down next to him and gave him a bear hug. " Shay your my best friend, I always treat you differently," his body shook with laughter. " There ya go. I'll always be here for you, weather you want me to be or not."

"Has anyone ever told you how great you are?" Shane said.

"Well once or twice, maybe a hundred." We laughed together.
"Your mom is worried, I'll walk you home."

After I dropped Shay off at his house. I ran into my house. I skipped dinner and feel asleep on the couch. I guess being an high school girl can make you tired.


October//November//December//January//


Chapter 3

Today I overslept and was late to class. Shane did wait for me but my mom told him to go ahead. She didn't want him to get caught in the rain. I walked to homeroom soaking wet. My boots kept squeaking as I walked to a seat behind Shane.

"Nice of you to join us," Mr.Fitz said.
