3Chapter 1:
"Brad…Brad…Brad! Wake up!" Mr. Barnes shouted. "Brad finish this poem."
"Dude… where are we?" Brad asked John, his seatmate.
"We are right over here and you have to read from here to here" John replied.
"Brad, the class is waiting to hear your voice." Mr. Barnes said sounding impatient"
"Okay, ummm. 'In the shadows I wait with silent tears until the day-'"
Rrrrrrrrring
"Okay class the bell has rung. And we haven't finished the poem yet. Hmmmmm… For homework I would like you to finish the poem and write a 200 word essay explaining what you think that this poem is about." Mr. Barnes said drowning out the groans the class gave at the thought of having homework on the night of the back-to-school-dance. "Alright class I'll see you at the dance tonight. Class dismissed. Oh! Mr. Brandon, I would like to talk to you. What's your next class? I'll write you a pass."
Brandon turned to his friend and said, "Wait for me outside." His friend nodded his understanding and stood to wait outside of the classroom.
When everybody left Mr. Barnes turned to him and said, "I still don't get it. On all my lectures you're asleep, but every time there is work for you to do you never fail. If you weren't one of my best students I wouldn't be having this nice conversation with you. You are lucky that your grades are above average if it were below…well, I would see you in detention. I also heard that you got into another fight."
"Awwww… Mr. Barnes he started it. He threw a punch and started hitting me. Plus, he tried to steal my spot"
"Don't severely hurt any one though okay? …On second thought try not to hurt anyone period. You're lucky that the school staff likes you and cuts you slack … most of the time."
"Yes sir. I'm sorry to say this but, I really should be in P.E. right now"
"Not a problem Brad I'll write a pass for you and John. Here you go. John come in here I would like to tell you both something. You two make sure you win tomorrow's game for us okay?"
The boys grinned at each other. "Yes sir!" They said. They were the spirit of the team. Without them the team wouldn't be a team. "Bye!"
On the way to the gym the boys caught up with their principal, Mr. McArthur "Brad, I would like to have a word with you alone if you don't mind."
Brad nodded to John, "Go ahead it's alright."
"John let me add something to that note." He hastily scribbled about Brad being with the principal because he wanted to let Brad know about some things. "Thank you. You may go now to your next class." As John walked away the principle turned to Brad and said, "Brad, tomorrow two students are transferring from Sakura High School, We will have a welcoming ceremony for them of course, but I would like you to make sure that they feel welcome and help them get adjusted to the school rules. If you want to you can tell them about the status of the groups of the school if you want. It doesn't really matter. Is that alright with you?"
"Yes sir, it is all right with me."
"So tomorrow morning I want you to stop by my office when you first come to school. Well, you can put your bag down first and then come to my office. I've already briefed your homeroom teacher about this so you have no need to worry. So I'll see you in my office first thing in the morning okay?"
"Okay. Sorry for asking but what are their names?"
"Why do you want their names?"
"Well, because it would be easier for me to help them get used to the school if I knew their names."
"Okay since you put it that way I'll give you a copy of their student profiles."
"Come along with me to my office." Mr. McArthur said leading the way to his office. In his office he pulled out the two files out of his drawers and handed it to him. "These are their student profiles. Their picture, age, gender, and all those other stuff is in there you can look through them now and ask any questions regarding the information in there. Go on look through it. Okay! Any questions?"
"No sir I understand every thing." Oh. They are brother and sister I wonder if they are twins.' "Mr. McArthur do I escort them to the classroom?"
"Yes. You are to escort them to the classroom. You can bring one person to help."
"Can it be my sister?"
"I underestimated you. Yes. I think that they would enjoy it if you and your sister to show them around. If I were to guess I would have thought that you might ask John to go with you because he is your friend. Anyways, can you brief your sister about this? You two can handle this right?"
"Yes we can handle this. We'll meet them here at your office tomorrow. Is there anything else that you need us to do?"
"No. There isn't. I'll meet you in my office tomorrow. And you can go to your P.E. class. I'm sorry for keeping you away so long. "
"No, it's okay sir buh-bye. I'll look over the files and see if there is a problem. If I do find a problem I'll call you. Your number is still the same right?"
"Yes. Okay I'll see you tomorrow."
Brad turned away from the principal and looked through the files on his way to the gym. 'So they're foreigners. Wow! She's hot! I wonder what she's like. American…attended a foreign school…Whoa! I was right they are twins.'
"Hey Brad!" John shouted. "What did old man McArthur want?"
"Oh, he just told me that we are going to have two new students in our class tomorrow and that Candice and I are supposed to make them feel comfortable with this school."
"Bro.' sorry to say this, but what about the game tomorrow?"
"Oh shit! I forgot all about that I guess that I'll ask Sasha to take care of them for me."
"Dude you don't want to do that! Hey I know, bring them to the game. You cannot say that you don't have their profiles. I already saw them twice in your hands."
"Okay but only for a couple of minutes. You aren't supposed to know about this until tomorrow."
"Whatever…Fuck! She's fucking hot! On a scale from one to ten on the 'Hot-o-Meter' she's a hundred!. Why didn't you tell me that she's so hot? That's her brother? They could almost pass as twins. They look so much alike! … I bet if her brother was a girl they really would look alike. Come to think of it, I think that it would be better if he was a girl. If they were both hot chicks than we would be going out with the hottest chicks in the damn school. If I were to wish on a star tonight I would wish that the boy was changed into a girl that looked like his sister. Ahhhhh!" he said dreamily, "I'm in heaven!"
"I don't think so."
"Why?"
"Because, you thinking like Gaylord," he said with a fake Chinese accent. "And me no friend with Gaylord."
"What are you talking about? We would be going out with the hotte-."
"Let me guess you were about to say the hottest girls, but … think about it I'm popular enough already. I could get any girl I want being the handsome stud I am."
"Dude your seriously conceited."
"What are you talking about? The same thing goes to you. You're saying that I'm conceited, look at you. There are 3 reasons why you are… one, you're a rich bitch, two, you're my best friend, and three… Well, I guess there is no number three. I can't think of one."
"Watch out for the ball!" a blonde kid in their class yelled when the ball flew out of his hands.
"Brad, John! I want 30 laps now!" Coach Hawk yelled. "Don't slack off today. You only have today and tomorrow morning to prepare for the game. Move it!"
"Yes sir!" They answered.
They started jogging in silence. Suddenly a thought popped into Brad's head. He turned to John. "John since you really want to meet them how about this: I'll bring them to the game tomorrow. You getting me so far?"
"Yes."
"While we're playing they'll hang with my sister and watch the game. And then after we'll go out for pizza. How's that sound to you?"
"Perfect. I'll get the girl and you can get the boy."
"Dude! I ain't a homo."
"Actually to tell the truth we're both homos."
"What the fuck?!"
"You know…homos sapiens."
"I'll kill you for that!"
"Hey! Where did my laps go?" bellowed Coach. "Add five more for slacking."
"Shit!"
"Sasha!" Brad said as he knocked on her door. "Sasha…you in there?"
"Yes," she answered. "What do you want?"
"Are you busy tomorrow?"
"No…why?"
"Because tomorrow you and I are going to show these two new kids around school and all those other stuff that we are supposed to do."
"And what do you propose that we do?"
"You know, show them around teach them stuff that they are supposed to know."
"Why me? Usually if you were to choose somebody it would be John."
"Because one of them is a girl and the other is a boy. And if a girl were to describe him I think the appropriate word is: 'HOT!'"
"You gotta be shitting me. Do you have the student profiles?" At the nod of his head she yelled, "Let me see!"
"No!" he said as he jabbed her in the ribs with his fingers. "Not until you get on your knees and ask pardon for all the bad things that you have done to me."
"Hell no! I'm not that desperate to see the student profiles. Wait! I got a better idea. Daddy! Mommy! Brad won't let me see something that I'm supposed to se because I am helping him with something. He told me that if I want to see I have to get down on my knees and beg for his forgiveness just to see it!"
"Brad," she said, "is that true?"
When Brad started to shake his head Sasha interrupted by saying, "Don't listen to him mommy he just doesn't want to get into trouble."
"Says who?"
"Shut up!"
"Make me"
"Oh, bite me."
"Both of you zip it. I do not want to hear anything else about this coming out of your mouths. You got it?"
"Okay." they answered to her back as she went down the stairs.
"Tattletale," He whispered to Sasha.
"Liar," She answered back.
"Tattletale," He prodded on.
"Shut up Asshole," She answered.
"Look," she said as she turned to her brother. "Do you want me to help you with what ever you want me to help you with tomorrow or not?" When he nodded his head she continued "Then hand it over."
He gave it to her and allowed her to flip through it before he briefed her on what was to happen tomorrow. As he left the door way he turned his head back and said, "Oh! And bring them to my game tomorrow. We're going to pizza afterwards. There we can get to know each other. That okay with you?" at her nod he continued, "Good. Nighty Night, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite."
The Alarm clock beeped waking Brad up and bringing him back to earth from dream land. He yawned as 6:30 glared at him through the darkness. 'Hmmm. 6:30, that's early, what was I supposed to do today? Oh shit! I have to get ready.' He tramped his way down to his sister's room and banged on her door. "Get your lazy but up you good for nothing hoe. Hurry up and get ready."
"What?" Sasha said as she opened up the door and glared at him. "What do you want? It's only…" She glanced at her clock, "Are you crazy?! It's only 6:30 in the morning!"
"I know. You do remember that we have to be in the principal's office by 7:30 right?"
"What do you mean? There isn't anything planned today."
"Don't tell me that you forgot already! We have to show those two students that transferred, around the school today!"
"Oh Crap! I forgot. Thanks for waking me up 'kay? Sorry for getting mad at you."
"Don't worry about it. Just concentrate on getting ready on time." He said as he shut her door. He trudged on into the bathroom to get ready. As the cold water splashed him in the face his brain started wake up. 'I wonder what she's like.' He asked himself. He then started to dream up a fantasy with them going out. Only to be interrupted by a loud banging on the door.
"Brad, are you done in there? You took long enough already. Aren't you worried about whether or not I can be ready in time? If we are late it won't be my fault. It's yours for hogging the bathroom."
"Hold up! I'll be out in a second. Sorry 'bout that." He said as he wrapped a towel around his waist. He stepped out of the bathroom and said to Sasha, "You're one to complain that's what I have to do every time you get to the bathroom first."
"Well, sorry for being a girl." She answered.
"Whatever!"
"Donavan, Wake up!" Desiree said as she banged on his door. "Wake up or we're gonna be late."
"I'm up I'm up!" He said as he opened his door. "What time is it?"
"6:30" She answered.
"Go away. Leave me alone!"
"Don't you dare talk to me that way!"
"What ever. Anyways, what do you mean we are gonna be late? It's only six thirty, and school doesn't start until eight."
"Don't you remember?" she said exasperated, "We have go in early today.
"Anyways I'll see you downstairs for breakfast later. You better be down." Desiree said as she walked down the hall to her room. 'God, today's gonna be hard. I have to put a leash on my temper. And stay away from people.'
She screamed in her head. She walked to her closet and pulled open the door. What am I gonna wear today? She wondered as she looked in and at her clothes. 'What does a girl like me wear on her first day to school? What kind of clothes is an outgoing girl supposed to wear? Ugh! I'll never make it at this rate!' she thought as she banged her head against the door.
"Desi," Her mom called from the kitchen when she heard the thump. "Stop banging your head against the door. You'll bruise your face. Hurry up and get ready."
"Okay mom, Sorry!" Desiree answered. She looked back in her closet and picked out a white tank top shirt with blue ends. She put it on with her jeans and liked the outcome.
"What are you supposed to be today?"
"You tell me. What do I look like?"
"I don't know, a girl?"
"Of course I am a girl. Hurry up and finish your food!"
"Okay. You don't have to go crazy! "
She turned to him with a small smile on her face. "sorry," she said.
"It's alright."
"Hello Mr. McArthur! I'm Desiree and this is my brother Donavan." Desiree said and shook the principal's hand.
"Morning," Donavan nodded to the principal."
"Good morning to you too. There's about 5 minutes left until 7:30 so you can stay here until then." The principal said.
"Ummmm, sorry for asking sir but, what is going to happen at 7:30?" Desiree asked.
"Your guides will be here." Mr. McArthur answered.
"Mr. McArthur?" Donavan asked. "May we look around for about a couple of minutes?"
"Why certainly. Just stay in this building to so you won't get lost."
Donavan turned to his sister and said, "Want to walk around?"
"Let's go. Thank You!" she said as they walked out of the principal's office. She turned to Donavan, "Let's see who this guide is."
They hung around the entrance and had fun looking at the students wondering whether or not they were to be their guides. Suddenly a guy with horn rimmed glasses and nerdy clothes rushed pass her and into the principal's office. 'Please, please dear Lord, do not let our guide be him.' She silently prayed. Then he rushed out of the office and went to another room. She turned her head heavenward and said a prayer of thanks. When she turned her head back to look at the students something at the entrance caught her eye. Once again she turned heavenward and prayed, 'Dear Lord in heaven above, I know that I have already asked you to grant me one wish but can you please do this one as well? Please make that guy be the guide that is supposed to guide us today.' when she turned her attention back to the guy she saw him turn to a pretty blonde girl and put an arm around her shoulder. The blonde girl turned to whisper something into his ear and he threw his head back as he laughed a rich deep laugh. Instantly she was jealous. 'Oh great!' she thought, 'I see one guy that's hot and find that he's taken, and then I see the other girls staring at them; especially at him. It proves that there's no chance.'
Desiree turned to Donovan "Let's go back, it's almost 7:30."
Donovan who had seen the slide show of emotions pass through her face silently agreed.
It was exactly 7:30 when Desiree and Donavan's guides rushed through the door.
"Where have you guys been?" The principal asked them.
"Sorry Mr. McArthur, but you can't say we're late the clock's just rung 7:30. See?" Brad indicated as the principal's buzzer started buzzing.
"It appears so Mr. Crewe. Now let's go meet them." He held the door so Brad and his sister could get through.
Desiree gasped as they came through the door. The guy was the same exact guy that had caught her eye. 'Oh man' she groaned, 'How am I gonna get through the day?'
"Hi" Brad said interrupting her thoughts, "I'm Brandon Crewe, but you could just call me Brad, and this is my sister Sasha," he said referring to the blonde beauty beside him. 'Oh so he isn't taken,' she smiled secretly.
"And we'll be your guides for today and your friends too." Sasha added.
Just then the intercom announced for their morning assembly. The principal turned to the four of them and said, "Desiree and Donavan, we are going to introduce you to the school today. All you have to do is go backstage and wait until I call for you. Brad and Sasha should be waiting for you." he informed them.
They entered the school auditorium through the back door. Finally the doors closed and the talking ceased. Desiree and Donavan heard the dreaded words: "Let's meet the new editions of our School."
"Good Luck," Sasha whispered to Desiree and Donavan as they stepped out of the curtains and onto the stage.
"That went well," Sasha said. "I think that they sensed something about you guys that would change something in the school."
"What do you mean?" Donavan asked.
"I don't know. It's just this feeling that I have whenever I am with you guys. Anyways," she said as they neared the entrance of 2-C, "This is your new homeroom, which is also mine, so I'm one of your new classmates. See you guys later!" She said to Brad and Sasha before she entered the classroom.
"Later gator..." Brad said to Sasha.
"Whatever," She said.
"See you later Kiddo." Donavan said to his sister.
"Bye Don," she said as they hugged each other affectionately.
When Sasha and Donavan went into the class room Brad turned to Desiree and said, "If you want to find your brother you can find him in 2-C, which is his homeroom class. Our classroom is over there in 2-A down the hall, in the 1st adjoining hall to the right and the 2nd door to the left, inside the corridor and the first door you see. It's the same thing, well almost, with when you are going to 2-C. You got that?'
"To tell the truth," Sasha said, "I didn't follow you after the 1st adjoining hall. Sorry." She said as she looked apologetically at Brad.
"Never mind, just follow me." He said as they led the way to their classroom. He handed her her schedule. "Out of 8 periods you have four with out me. For the rest I will be either next to your classroom or opposite of it." He said. "I will be your lab partner for science. Oh and don't worry you and your brother have the same breaks." He said as he held the door open for her. "Well… you ready?"
Hello people… umm…thanks for reading. I wrote this one before I wrote 'Dream Dude' (and I'm still in the beginning of it). Except that I posted the other one first. This one is supposed to be funny. I tried my best! I hope you don't mind me asking, but… is it funny? Sorry for asking I just want to know. Yikes! Am I being nosy? Hahaha I guess I'll see you next time. Whether it's for posting a new story or chapter. Happy New Year!
