The Day

Tuesday, March 16, 7:30 A.m. I headed to the bus stop ready to start the day. I forgot my phone that day, which is an odd occurrence. But I brushed it off as if I had forgotten to brush my teeth. It was a cold dark morning. There were 8 weeks of school left. until I was in 11th grade. Maybe I should introduce myself. I'm Nathan I go to White Creek High School I'm 16 and in 10th grade. I love school. The part I like most about it is that my best friend Chris goes to the same school. He is one of the smart kids. He brags and boasts about being on the honor roll. I get good grades in all, mostly a's, b's, and c's. When I got on the bus I sat next to Thomas everyone calls him T.H. I call him a tomato head. when we got to school I went to my locker. I saw lily Havern. The feeling inside me made my stomach ace. I walked past her, it was like everything slowed down when you walked past her. I would have been surprised if my jaw wasn't hanging all the way down to the ground. I got to first period and sat down. I sit next to Chris in first period. We talked about soccer for about five minutes when the teacher yelled for the class to settle down. The day went on like normal until about the 3rd period. I was sitting in math working on a geometry sheet when it started snowing. not much just a little. We normally turn the heat up when it starts snowing. the teacher reached for the thermos and turned it up. we all continued working. Fourth period was my favorite because it one of the classes I had with Lilly. In fourth period (science) we worked on a science lab. When it was time for the teacher to assign the partners I was hoping she would say, Chris and Nathan. but I heard the words Nathan and Lilly slip out of her mouth. My chin dropped. I rubbed my eyes as if I was dreaming. I blinked about ten times. It didn't seem real. I mean don't get me wrong I would love to be her partner but it just seemed weird. I looked down and right as I looked back up BAM. The power went off I sat down next to Lilly. She seemed kinda worried but it was just some stupid old router in the back of the school. I figured they would have it fixed in a few minutes. I looked outside it seemed like I was the only one who noticed. but we were in the middle of a blizzard. And a big one too. I gasped, Lily whispered to me " I noticed too, it's bad out there". I felt comforted in some type of way. As if someone understood some type of secret language with me. I looked at the teacher and pointed out the window as if I was a two-year-old looking at ice cream. She along with half the people in our class gasped. We didn't know what to do. Lily started crying. I gave her a big bear hug. I felt amazing but at the same time terrible because we could possibly die. I looked outside and noticed no one else in the city had power. you couldn't even hear the buzzing of the heater. Not even two seconds later the power came on. Lily stopped crying and hugged me saying " thank you I get terrible anxiety during storms". "no problem" I said. The bell rang and I Headed to 5th period. I felt a tug on my arm pulling me to the side. Before I could even process what had happened Lily kissed me. I felt fireworks lighting up inside me. We started making out. " do you wanna hang at my house after school today?" "sH...surr.sure" I said "see you then" I got on the bus and told Thomas everything. I got off at my normal stop and went home for like 2 minutes to freshen up. I brushed my teeth and combed my hair. I walked down the street turned down the corner and headed for her front door. I noticed none of her parents were home. I knocked on the door. She came and opened it and invited me to sit on the couch and watch Netflix. Of course, I said yes. We went upstairs and listened to music and talked. Somewhere along the way, I asked about where her parents were. She said they were out of town. My favorite song started playing, I shoot up and turned it up. I grabbed her hand and we started dancing. Once the song was over we sorta fell back on her bed. I looked at her and kinda smiled. "what" she said " I've just never seen a girl more pretty funnier and smarter than you." She kinda smiled. We locked eyes for a moment and leaned over. We started kissing again. I turned over while still kissing her. I put her up on my lap. She paused for a second and said do you hear that. "never mind" ok whatever. I looked over her shoulder. I saw a mirror I don't know why but I felt a weird feeling not to do anything else than kiss in her room. we continued to go to her house every Tuesday and Thursday. one day she hugged me at school and I got so happy. we continued to do that for about a month. until one Tuesday when I lost that gut feeling and one day when my mom was working we went over to my house. she said it's her first time I think she might have lied. and to this day we still flirt. moral of the story sometimes something bad happening isn't always bad.

The End
