Day Two
Calculus today is no joke. We jump right into the lesson and the whole hour I'm trying my best to keep up with my note taking. I really don't want to have to go back later through this huge ass book in order to understand the concepts. I understand the justst of it but practice definitely makes perfect. We get our assignments and I pack up for the day.
My Interior Design class goes buy way too quickly for my liking to be honest. I enjoy the view first of all and second I am actually good with computers. So messing with color swatches and photoshop is a piece of cake. Ms. Anderson is easily impressed with my artistic abilities and enthusiasm. Only reading a few chapters tonight is the homework, detailed note taking if your smart.
Once again I am the first person in my History class. I do have a large amount of young people in this class so I am sure many skip or slump in whenever they deem fit. I have remembered a few names in this class, not that I wanted to. Matt, the red head next to Samantha the late chic. Adjacent to her are two other girls. One blonde and short, Megan and the other not too tall but tall and brunette, Martha.
Just like my previous two classes we jump right in. It's history, not much to tell right? We have learned the same crap year after year for twelve years! Out teacher gives us a class assignment that we have to complete in pairs. Mrs. Heller assigns us and I get put with Matt, no biggie. I haven't actually met him but he seems smart enough.
Mrs. Heller allows us to get into the assignment and goes back to her desk. Matt comes over to sit by me and we begin. He makes small talk with me, sports and cars, the usual. I learn that he isn't from Greenwood either. Like myself, he just moved here for school and work. However he was just from the next town over, so it isn't like he doesn't know these parts well.
He is more of a basketball fan than football which is cool, we both favor Lakers but who doesn't? He drives a motorcycle which is obvious by the helmet he drags around.
As we are reading and working through the assignment she catches my eye. Quickly double taking my eye line, I catch Samantha looking at me and she isn't being sneaky about it either. Her long brown curly hair is out and about today around her face. She is focused on me and instead of feeling weird I feel oddly relaxed and can't help but stare back at her.
She is far away from me but I can see her bright blue eyes sparkling from where I sit. I can't read her expression but she looks at me in wonder.
" Dillion!" Matt jerks me back into reality.
" Dude, I need help on number four." Matt repeats.
I shuffle through the pages quickly looking for the answer, shaking my head to clear it in the process.
"Shit, sorry man I spaced out."
"Spaced huh? Samantha is pretty hot." He grins at me. Fucking dick.
"Yeah, whatever." I joke as I try to wrap my head back around this damn assignment. It's not too long after before we finish up. Matt turns our papers in and we are dismissed to our regular seats and allowed to work on any assignments we choose for the rest of the day.
I decide to just finish all my work for this class now but the sudden vision of Matt and Samantha talking closely stops me in my tracks. He is whispering something in her ear and it makes her laugh. The sight of him making her laugh irritates me and I don't need to be a genius to figure out why. The problem is is I don't even know this girl. Her eyes quickly flicker up to mine just as Matt moves back into his own space.
"Okay guys, ya'll are good to go." Mrs. Heller announces causing Samantha and the rest of the class to grab their things and head out. I get with the program and hurry out the door as well, going the opposite direction of Matt, Samantha and another girl who I believe is Martha.
Trying not to give a fuck I head to my truck happy to get out of here.
