Fixed my post but i would like to see more.

Wow! You guys seem to like it, a lot. (Almost too much...

)Okay, well here's the next installation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We walked out into the hallway, and down back into the cafeteria. The entire room was filled with kids buzzing around like angry bees. Sitting down at our table, John decided to go and get a snack, since he said he wasn’t very hungry.

“Where did you guys go?” Carly asked me.

“Oh…just to the bathroom,” I said half-truthfully.

“Wow. You guys really do do everything together!” She laughed a bit, and ate some of her pizza.

“So, Nick,” Sarah said to me, almost completely oblivious to her surroundings. “Would you… like to…”

“I think I’ll pass,” I said, not even letting her finish. I laughed a bit, to try and lighten the rejection. Carly just laughed, and Sarah kept her puppy dog stare on me.

John joined us, sitting down next to me. “Hey Carly, Sarah,” he said, pulling out a bag of chips.

“What, no hello for me?” I joked.

“Oh, right, sorry Nick. Hey.”

“That’s more like it!” I said.

Wolfing down his bag of chips in less than a minute, and with the rest of us already being pretty much finished with our lunch, we decided to just sit and chat.

“So, Nick, I hear you told Carly you don’t like Edward Cullen,” Sarah said, actually looking somewhat serious.

“Well, he isn’t the coolest vampire…”

“Okay, now you’re going to get it!” Carly shouted, barely keeping a straight face.

“Hah, no violence, children,” John said, observing our behavior. “You know that Principal Madison wouldn’t like it if he found you two arm wrestling over who is a cool vampire.”

“Yeah, well, he’s enough of one already!” Carly cracked. We all burst out laughing. John was laughing along with the rest of us, so I figured the problem had gone away for now.

A few minutes later, the bell rang, and we stood up from the table. Rushing to get out of the cafeteria as soon as possible, we walked back over to our lockers. Carly said goodbye to Sarah, who wasn’t in any more of her classes.

Opening up our lockers, and getting our necessary materials to survive English, and then History, we each walked to our next class, which was English.

Our teacher, Mrs. Baines, was known as the most boring and clueless teacher in school. Being almost seventy years old, she constantly fell asleep during class, and often had no recollection of any of her lessons. Although she was well over the retirement age, she insisted to Principal Madison that she be allowed to continue to teach.

Since today was a Friday, and Mrs. Baines was clueless, as usual, the class was loud and rowdy. Kids were tossing objects into the air, and making all sorts of comments about Mrs. Baines, her teaching, and other kids.

She tried teaching us about how to correctly use interrogative sentences, but she continually returned to her desk, looking at her lesson plans. I felt bad for her, as she was definitely trying as hard as she could, but nobody was really paying attention.

When the bell rang, the class dismissed itself, and John, Carly, and I, walked to our last period, History.

Since it was a Friday, and we had already taken our Final Exams, Mr. Evans, our teacher, allowed us to use the last hour to do whatever we wanted. John and I sat at a table with some kids, while Carly sat at another, blabbing about “How awesome Edward Cullen is.”

At our table, some of the kids were talking about having a party for the end of the school year.

“Hey Nick, John, are you guys coming?” One of them asked.

“Hmm, I’m not sure…” I said, thinking. “When is it?”

“Tonight silly! We said it over and over again; you just weren’t listening!”

“Oh, maybe. I’ll have to think about it, okay?”

“Alright dude, whatever you say.” He turned back to talking to the three other people at the table. I pulled out my cell phone, and once again checked my emails. A law had just been passed that allowed cell phone usage in schools in Connecticut, with a teacher’s consent.

There weren’t any emails, and since I rarely send text messages to others, I flipped my phone off. Wanting the day to end, I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was 2:47, so I knew I had only a mere thirteen minutes left of class.

I stood up from my chair, and walked over to where Carly and her friends were sitting.

“Hey everyone, what are you guys talking about?” I asked, bored. I stood next to where Carly was sitting, since there were no extra chairs.

“Oh, nothing Nick,” Carly replied. “We’re just trying to figure out who’s a better vampire: Edward Cullen, or Dracula.” All of the girls at the table shouted Cullen, and the guys chose Dracula.

“Nick, who do you think is better?” Carly asked, turning to me. All eyes were on me, as I was the only one who had yet to vote.

“Probably Dracula,” I said, with little hesitation. All the guys at the table shook their fists in the air and cheered, while the girls all just sighed.

The bell rang, and everyone stood up at once. Mr. Evans walked to the door, and bid us all farewell, and a good weekend. I waited for Carly to finish talking with her friends, and then walked over to get John.

“You coming John?” I asked him.

His head shook, surprised by me speaking. Turning his head to face me he said, “Oh, yeah. Sorry ‘bout that.”

“It’s alright,” I said. “Now, come on, before we miss the bus!” John stood up, and picked up his backpack. He seemed really sad, and I figured it was from the bad grades, and the bedwetting. Carly didn’t seem to notice this, so we walked out the door, and into the jam-packed hallway.

There were literally hundreds of seventh and eighth graders crowding in the hall, trying to either get to the front entrance, or the bus port. We slowly inched towards the bus port, until finally, we reached it after three minutes of going practically nowhere.

Walking outside, and climbing onto bus number 57, the three of us sat in our usual seats. We waited at least five minutes before everyone had boarded the bus, and then, we left the school.

Coming upon the highway, I decided to look out the window. Watching the buildings as we traveled at 50 mph was dizzying, so I decided to try and relax.

I closed my eyes, thinking again about my mother. I had seen pictures of her; she was beautiful, and had long brown hair, like the rest of us. She was merely twenty-four years old when she died; meaning she would be thirty-nine this year. I still missed her every single day of my life, wishing she were still alive.

“Nick! Get up man! We’re home!” My eyes shot open. I had fallen asleep again, not even realizing how tired I had been. Stretching my arms a bit, I noticed we were stopped at the corner of my street. Standing up, I picked up my backpack, and walked off the bus with Carly and John. All three of us walked up to my front door, and Carly said she would see us later on.

Pulling our house key out of his pocket, John unlocked the door, and we walked in. Setting our backpacks down next to the door, we walked into the living room, to watch T.V.

We sat and watched the Weather Channel for a few minutes, since there weren’t any good Not feeling like watching anymore, John decided to go upstairs and take a shower. I continued watching T.V. until John came out of the shower, about ten minutes later.

“Hey John, do you want to talk now?” I asked him as he sat down in the chair across from me.

“Yeah…I guess we could,” he said reluctantly.

“You know, we don’t have to if you don’t want to.”

“Well, I heard that a lot of kids around our age have problems like this.”

“Oh, I see. I think I’ve heard that somewhere too.”

“Yeah,” he continued, “they have these ‘night diapers’ that kids wear for this.”

“I see. Well, if it happens too much, we can talk to Dad about it, okay?”

“Sure Nick, now let’s watch some T.V.”
