Story Excerpt 2 of 2

Six Flags Trip

Ever since the Six Flags trip was mentioned, Penny had incessantly nagged me to sit next to her on the bus. Reluctantly appeasing her wishes for some reason even unknown to myself, I would jokingly say “fine, you can be my pillow for the two hour trip… oh yeah, and by the way, I have a sever case off mouth droolage…” in the hopes that she would give up her useless vendetta. The day of the trip, it rained, hard. I walked, ran, to the school to catch the bus. And I lived far away from that wretched building that claimed to be a school. Just in time to make the bus but not so late enough to find that she had found a bus-buddy. The only seats she could save for “us”; all the way in the back, next to the toilet.

It was not as painful as I thought it would be; sitting next to the girl I had been pining for all year long. She was always smiling next to me, laughing, and making awkward conversation, it’s what I like about her most. I liked her, too much. The whole day was filled with laughing and screaming on rides where she just happened to keep sitting next to me. Everyone knew we liked each other, and so did we. But the day ended like any other one with her in it; without her.

Story Excerpt 1 of 2

I have been writing a story, and thought I would share some of it. It is a story about a boy who falls in love with a girl in his Physics class, but it takes forever for a move to be made. It is loosely based on a true story. I won't say if its me, but I was there for all of the events in the true story.

Meeting Again

Oliver walked upstairs from his French class and started searching for his Physics class. He finally reached the door where something in his life would change greatly, he was about to learn physics. Oliver walked in, but could not find a seat anywhere. All the seats in the room were set up so the class would sit in pairs. He knew that he did not want to sit alone, but he did not want to sit with anyone that would drag him down. Oliver stood there and pondered for a moment. He got it, he would sit at an empty table and hoped that one of his friends would be in the same physics class.

Oliver sat and waited while the room filled. Yet none of his friends were coming in. Oliver thought, “ They all probably have the afternoon class.” Just at that moment, a girl walked in. She had long dark hair with a purple stripe in it, her jeans were tight, and she wore a bright red top. Oliver had seen this girl before, but this time was different. His breathing sped up, his face was flushed, and his hands were two pools of water. His seat was the only one left, and the girl began to walk towards him. She sat down next to him. Oliver mustered all the strength he had to say “Hello, I’m Oliver.” She responded “Sup, I’m Penny.”
