I guess its time to go to class.
"She's out here," Gina, the youngest of the group and also Jane's step-sister, says as she's opening the door that leads out of the cafeteria hallway and to the back of the school.
Why do they have to bother me now? I'm kinda busy. Well, that's what they need to think.
"Hey, guys. I really just want to be alone. Okay?"

"Hey. What's up?" This comes from a guy about 4 inches taller than me. He has brown hair and glasses on. I also noticed he was wearing a white shirt and blue jeans. I couldn't tell by his outfit whether he was a nerd or a prep. So while trying to decide on a response, he looks over at me and when he does....
