KIT MCCONNELL.

School, albeit boring, is a necessity. I go, but not often. Unlike most kids my age, the only reason I go to school is to actually learn. Other kids have friends they look forward to seeing, and I'm never one of those friends. I've kept my distance from kids my age, they're all so immature and I'd much rather cling to my family's madness than school drama. Once the bell chirps, and classes are dismissed, I flee down the hall, and try to get out of there as soon as possible. I don't wanna get caught up in all of this madness. I didn't even bother to grab my backpack, so when someone bumps into me, and my books fall to the ground, I'm stuck having to pick them up, making sure no one kicks me in the face, or trips over me.

Thud. Roger was a bit confused when he looked down at the girl rushing around to pick up his books. School had just been let out and, as usual, Roger was wandering around the halls rather than actually going to class. He'd never really been much of the school type, he just went because his mother made him. She always complained, "You've gotta take care of yourself somehow, you know." Personally, he thought he was doing just fine. He was wealthy in happiness. Even though it's the classic poor person's excuse, he didn't care. It was true. He didn't need money to be happy

"Hey, you in a hurry somewhere?" He kinda felt bad for getting in the way, but it wasn't really his fault. "Uh, what's your name again, sweetheart?", he called as he extended a helping hand.

"Hey, you in a hurry somewhere?" The boy asked, the one that had knocked over my books. I'm glad at least one person in this school has the decency to take care of their actions' results. "Uh, what's your name again, sweetheart?" That made my cheeks redden, and I look up at him nervously. "Sweetheart? In no way am I your sweetheart," I retort. "And I'm Kit." Although I'm not sure, the boy has to be older than my fourteen-year old self. I start grabbing my books, and once I have them all collected, I grab his hand to pull me up. "Thanks," I mutter. "Who're you?"

"Sweetheart? In no way am I your sweetheart,", she replied, putting a lot of negative emphasis on "sweetheart". "And I'm Kit.", she said as she grabbed my hand on the way up. You know, it's strange.., I thought to myself. Here I am, being nice to someone who basically just tried to run me over, and she has the audacity to get an attitude.. But, whatever, this isn't one of the battles I'll pick.

"Thanks", she muttered. "Who're you?" "Name's Roger. I'm a senior here at school.", I explained. Hopefully that will keep me from getting snapped at again. "You know, I wasn't trying to make a pass at you, if that's what you thought.", he said, halfway lying. "I was just being polite."

"Name's Roger. I'm a senior here at school," he explains. I nod, as if to say I'm listening. "You know, I wasn't trying to make a pass at you, if that's what you thought." I'm not sure what a pass is, but I come to the conclusion that it's a form of flirting. "I was just being polite." "Well, I certainly hope you weren't 'trying to make a pass at me.' I'm a freshman." I sigh and start walking away. Now that the halls are practically empty, I have room to walk, and I won't have to be cautious about someone knocking me over. "Thanks for saying sorry, by the way," I retort while walking away, my neck swiveled to face him.

"Well, I certainly hope you weren't 'trying to make a pass at me.' I'm a freshman.", she said as she began to walk away. Okay, so I totally didn't know she was a freshman. Lapse of judgement, I suppose. But it's done and over with now.. "Thanks for saying sorry, by the way,", she turned around and called at me. I can't tell if that was sarcasm or not. "Uh.. yeah! Of course! No problem at all! Anyway, take care! Don't wanna lose those books again!"

I couldn't help but wonder where she was in such a hurry to. I mean, I hate school too, but not enough to run from it. Oh well, I guess I'm over thinking things again. I should probably just go home and check up on Mom. This time when I looked up, she was already gone.

"Uh.. yeah! Of course! No problem at all! Anyway, take care! Don't wanna lose those books again!" I laugh to myself as I abandon the boy. I wonder how stupid he feels knowing I'm a freshman. Well, whatever. It was a fun little experience, and it's time to get home... But for some reason, I'd much prefer spending a little more time with Roger. I turn around and briskly walk up to him, to make sure I can catch him. "Hey... How about we go get something to eat and do some homework?" I suggest. It couldn't hurt, right? Plus, he might know more about the stuff I'm doing, and he could help a bit. There's also the fact that guys have to pay for the food, so it's pretty much a win-win situation.

Well, that didn't go well, not at all, I thought to myself. I was just in a hurry to get home when she poked her head right back around the corner and said, "Hey... How about we go get something to eat and do some homework?"

Well, I'm all for making new friends. I always have been. I'm probably one of the more outgoing people in Eight. But homework? I don't think so. However, I haven't had dinner, so why not? "Yeah, sure.", I said as she walked back up to me. "You know, you never did tell me why you were in such a hurry earlier. Is everything okay?"
