As I stepped through the door the smell of apple pie wafted over to me. I walked into the kitchen plonked my bag on the floor and drooled as I store at the pie mmmm… pie.
“Get your face away from that pie it’s for dessert!” her voice startled me.
“Jeez you scared me. But can’t I just have a teeny tiny piece.”
“No!” she said abruptly.
“So did you make any friends?” she asked curiously.
“Yes, one.” I sighed.
“So people were nice to you?”
“No” I said thinking to myself.
“But this one girl was?”
“Girl, who said it was a girl?”
“I just assumed anyway so he was nice to you?” she said looking innocent.
“Obviously.” I said annoyed.
“Good”
“Good, I’m going up to my room I mean apartment see ya!” I exaggerated.
I reluctantly got to the top of the stairs stumbling and fumbling, tired. When I got to my room I laid on my bed bones aching. I store out the window at the woods I looked back inside it was nice and cool outside and I was hot and bothered but before I could move I fell asleep.
When I woke up it was 9:00pm and I could still smell the sugar glazed apple pie I was actually surprised my Mum made the pie with her Japanese heritage she normally cooks Asian style food except she is not good at making sushi beware the sushi. So I got up got a slice of pie and a couple dollops of ice cream, turned on the miniature TV and watched Miss Marple a repeat though. Then I made myself a hot chocolate with marshmallows watched something and went to bed.
I woke up early (5:30am to be exact. Don’t ask me why) had a shower got dressed and went outside there was a gentle breeze and it told me to command it and I was like what the hey. But I then realised soon after I moved my right hand the wind moved with and it was so cool if only you’d been there. The wind then told me to fight back by learning how to control the wind (fight back what?). So I was out there for a good 2 hours moving the wind and telling it what to do for a change but it did backfire a couple of time, it messed up my hair it was like a cold air hair dryer on full throttle as well as it lifted up my shirt showing my bra to the whole town luckily no one saw. And lots of uncanny, weird and embarrassing happened.
I walked in side wind blown, cold and tired. I plonked on the couch yawned and turned on the TV and made myself a hot chocolate. I decided to go for a walk in the woods (well I didn’t really decide the wind did). I took a step in the wood and the same wave of relief went over me but this time I decided to go the path furthest to the right.
As I was walking down this very muddy path other then the squelching of mud between my toes I heard a ruffle here and a ruffle there I looked around and saw a little, white bunny. It had those cute little eyes and it was nibbling some grass and I wanted to run up squeeze it but then I might frighten it. So I kept walking and besides I wanted to know where this track ended. But when I looked back I found the bunny right behind me, I took another step and it followed me. So I picked it up and carried it to the end of the track and I found a little cubbyhouse/shack but it looked abandoned (I named the bunny Geoffrey) put Geoffrey in there kissed him goodbye and walked off.
Was that shack really abandoned? I mean no one would really make something like that except me because then I could be close to the wind and I’m completely abnormal.
I was walking back and decided that practicing in here was a much better option than embarrassing myself in front of everyone (although I do that quite often anyway) so I practiced it turns out I was right to stay in the forest because I swear if I was out in the open I would not fancy been seen in my undies and bra (although my bra was really cute with matching undies. Sorry if that was a little awkward and you didn’t need to no that but you do know, sucked in!)
I got back to the house it was almost dark with one last glance at the town and surroundings I saw the same guy with the same hoodie sprinting down the hills carrying something. Who the hell is he? What the hell is he doing and why? Anyways for the rest of the weekend I chatted on facebook, took some photos and eat, slept, drank etc.
I woke to find my hair steaming and sunlight splashed across my eyes yet again (I was really regretting picking this room now). I got up reluctantly chucked my school uniform on grabbed my tiny bag and started to walk out the door when Mum said stubbornly, “Eat some breakfast I don’t want you to starve!”
“I’ll be late,” I said reminding her.
“Fine, but eat something.”
“What makes you think I won’t eat anyways?” I said curious. But she already walked off. I went off down the hill and walked to school.
I found Aaron by his locker and I kind of got the feeling he was flirting with me so before it got any worse I rushed off to photography. Where I found it was full of people freakier than me (bravo to them ‘cause that’s really hard to do). I enjoyed taking photos of the school gardens (how proper is this place it has a garden) the bell went for recess and I sat down at a table and Aaron found me and we talked and it wasn’t as awkward as before but I still had the feeling he was flirting with me. “Aaron-“ I was cut off.
“Before you say anything, I didn’t know if you knew but I think I like you, like like you and if you wanted to we could-“
“Sorry I don’t even know yow you really and I’m just not looking for that, maybe later?” I said trying not to break his heart.
“Oh, okay, yeah maybe later.” He said disappointed.
“Got a go catch round?” I said curiously.
“Yeah see ya round, at lunch?’
“When else dumbo?” I said as we walked off laughing.
As the bell rang for the end of the day I heard someone had lite the back of the school on fire and they also burned ‘get out of the house you bitch’. I wonder who that was aimed at?

Chapter 4 To Click Or Not To Click
I awoke to the sun beaming onto to me, my hair was steaming (being black it attracts the suns), it was too sunny and my eyes hurt. I lay there staring up at my roof dazed by the sunlight. I turned to look at my alarm clock it read 7:15am, to early but I had to walk a lot further than last time and buy a uniform (great (if you couldn’t tell that was sarcasm)) so I slowly got up hesitantly went down stairs got a bowl of cornflakes and a hot chocolate (then I did all the things that you usually do in the morning like a normal person… only I’m not a normal person).
I opened the door the smell of grass wafted over in a cool, crisp breeze, it told me to be observant or cautious or to win this battle (What battle?). I walked out onto the hill and down another and down another one and just kept going till I got to a road (oh and if you were wondering the sky was a dreary blue) and crossed I couldn’t see anyone at the time just little grey brick houses (come to think of it most of this town was made out of grey bricks, except for a couple of things including my house) it felt almost dead. I walked over another road and a lot of grass (ooh grass, sarcasm again) till I reached the school big grey building with a main entrance which was surprisingly grey (sarcasm again) I stumbled up the stairs and pushed the door open, walked in.
The floor was a greyey-pinky marble floor, there were dark blue lockers lining the hallways and big, old glass windows at the end of each hallway. I found the office stepped in knocked and an old woman greeted me sat me down and asked me which subjects I would like to choose seen as I am in year 11 I get to pick a whopping 7 subjects (sarcasm yet again). I picked music/guitar, art/sketching, english (mandatory), maths (mandatory), biology, drama, hospitality (like cooking, waitrasing and like hosting), ancient history and photography. I got a timetable and headed off to the kind of canteen more a buffet, they also sold uniforms there (I was drooling they had sushi, stir fry, pancakes etc.). I got dressed in the girls change room which had writing all over it like Bree’s a slut, Helena’s a whore, Tom’s so sexy etc. The uniform was a white buttoned up shirt with a blue tartan tie and matching skirt with a grey jumper or cardi (I got the cardi) with those weird black shoes.
By the time I got dressed the hallways were full of people and gossip, I rummaged through my bag to find my locker key. I found it, it read 447 so I went looking up one hallway down another until I came to a bunch of lockers just inside of a big open glass door leading out to what seemed the like playground/area of grass, plants, fountains seats and tables. It was just beautiful I found my locker shoved most of my stuff in there except for the book I needed for first period shoved that in my tiny bag, I leaned on my locker and waited for first bell. But a guy trying to shove everything in his locker at once and almost failing interrupted my daydreaming. “What are you doing?”
“Excuse me, are you talking to me?” he said as if he didn’t believe it.
“Who else would I be talking to, Jesus?” I said sarcastically.
He laughed, “I guess your not one of the stereotypical girls at this school.”
“I’m not really from this school.”
“ Well as you can see I’m not popular or smothered in friends.”
“So.”
“First impression is major here, if you want to flush your reputation away keep talking to me.”
I don’t care what other people think, do you?”
“No it just most people do.”
“I don’t know if you can tell but I’m not most people.” I said trying to start a conversation. He laughed. We talked til the bell.
As I was heading off for… biology Aaron (that was the guy from befores name) asked me what I had first I told him biology but he had economics. We went our separate ways, as I walked into the classroom I realised that it was 4 white walls a chalkboard, separate desks and a big desk for the teacher ooh how exiting (sorry I think I like sarcasm) I picked a seat 3 rows back and store out the one window and waited for the teacher. He finally came and he got the role out I decided to look around at everyone as they called there name.
“Emily, yes, Chelsea, yep, Tom, yeah… err…umm I think it’s Kaze?”
“Yes” everyone looked at me.
“Konnichiwa.” Some chick called Chelsea laughed (a bitch).
“Ooh look two Asians is it destined.” she said as she pointed down at the back corner.
When I looked I saw a strange guy with glasses, black hair and was staring down at what ever his hands were doing, he looked as if he were really concentrating and really angry.
As I later learned his name was Kai. In biology we had to cut a piece of frog skin and see how hot it had to get before it started to ferment. And we had to use Bunsen burners and we had to lite it but Kai didn’t seem to have any matches but he still lit his but than again neither did Chelsea or a guy named tom who was majorley crushing on Chelsea.
The bell rang and it was recess so I went to my locker shoved my biology book in and got my photography book out shoved it in my tiny bag and looked for Aaron but he found me. We stood in front of our ockers and looked everywhere else and everybody else, joked, laughed and talked. I pointed out all the people I met. When it finally came to Chelsea I saw her just outside by a fountain pashing and sharing gum with a guy called Kane (apparently they were both the most popular people in the school… no thankyou) Aaron said they controlled the clicks (yah! Sarcasm again). “ So this school has clicks you aren’t all friends and it’s all about how pretty you look and how good a kisser you are?”
“I think you can answer that yourself.”
“So that’s a yes.”
“Yes.” He said certainly
“Great.” I said sarcastically.
“What did you expect.’
“I honestly expected just that.” I said hesitantly.
“But you’re still disappointed.” He said curiously.
“I guess.”
After photography I had english for 75minutes (NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I fell asleep halfway through and woke up at the bell time for lunch. On the way out I had Kane came up to me and asked me my name if I thought he was hot and what shampoo I use (A: Kaze, no and why). He also asked me if I wanted to join his click (his posse of girls) and share the love I rejected the offer. To click or not to click that is the question (corny I know, hey, does anyone have popcorn?) I pick not I’ll be an outsider or is it insider seen as I hang out inside. Hmmmmmmmm.
The day flew by starting with biology, photography than english, drama and last hospitality. Me and Aaron started to walked home together. “Where do you live?” I asked curiously.
“In a small brown house with my mum and older sister. I’m the youngest. What about you?” he asked.
“Up on the hill just…” I was interrupted.
“ In that huge house just in front of the wood! You must be rich!” he exclaimed.
“ Yeah… rich. I’m not rich if anything I’m poor and I’ll swap you I like small and old things.”
“You don’t know how lucky you are no one has lived in that house for 11 years or not that anyone knows.” He said proudly. But I don’t have a clue why.
“See ya.” He said cheerfully.
“See ya.” I sighed.
I opened the door the smell of grass wafted over in a cool, crisp breeze, it told me to be observant or cautious or to win this battle (What battle?). I walked out onto the hill and down another and down another one and just kept going till I got to a road (oh and if you were wondering the sky was a dreary blue) and crossed I couldn’t see anyone at the time just little grey brick houses (come to think of it most of this town was made out of grey bricks, except for a couple of things including my house) it felt almost dead.
