Casey Mitchell

Cheyenne and I walk out of the classroom together, but get separated by the herd of noisy high school students heading towards the gym.

"Hey Casey," a voice beside me says. I look over and see none other than my best friends crush.

"Hey Shawn. Where's Aaron? You guys are usually hanging out," I say as I dodge 2 guys who were chasing a 3rd.

"He's pissed at me because I like someone close to him, and he thinks I'm gonna break her heart," he says as he rolls his eyes.

"Can you blame him? That's all you do! I'm not trying to be rude Shawn, you know me. I'm just saying you break a girls heart once a week."

"I know, but this girl. I would never do that to her. Ever. He should understand! He feels the same way toward her best friend, and he wouldn't ever hurt her. I don't see what the big difference is," he huffs.

Great. He doesn't like me. He likes some pretty girl that is way better than me. All well. I'll just go back to Evan Peters. Yeah... That's what I'll do.

"Who does he like," I ask.  I might as well know who's better than me.

"Nobody. Just forget I said anything," Shawn says.

"Shawn," I try, but he cuts me off.

"Fuck, just fuck off Casey," he says before quickening his pace.

Wow okay then. I also walk towards the gym, and I sit in the bleachers next to Cheyenne. As I sit down, our gym teacher Coach North starts talking.

"Hey, what's up guys! How is everyone doing today?"

"Good," we all say in a bored tone.

"Well, we're having problems with our air conditioning everywhere except in the gym, so we're going to stay in here unless you would like to go out to the track. At lunch, we're all going to go to the lunchroom to get food, then bring it back and sit in here or on the track. Any questions?"

When nobody raises their hand, he continues. "Alright, everyone. Head to wherever you would like. Thank you."

With that, we all split up. Cheyenne and I head out to the track, and I can tell something is wrong with her.

"You okay," I ask.

"I'm fine," she says, hinting that she doesn't want to talk about it.

I decide not to push, and we continue to walk towards the track  in silence. Once we've reached the track, a few friends show up as well and we all talk an converse. After a while, Taylor Caniff (some guy that's friends with Aaron and Shawn) walks over to us.

"You guys might want to head over to Aaron and Shawn," he says cautiously.

"Why," Cheyenne says as if everything is boring to her.

"They're arguing, and it's getting pretty heated. I think they're about to fight," he says, grasping Cheyenne's attention.

"Where are they," she asks.

"They're down there a little ways where the fence around the track is close to the trees," he says pointing.

"Shit, okay thanks," she says, speeding off.

Guess I'm running too. Shit.
