The Forgotten Ones

The Beginning of the End

    It was just a normal day for me get up go to school the same thing over and over. School was ending soon I say about two more weeks before before summer vacation was to come.But, right now its to BORING. I'm struggle to keep my eyes open for the lecture my teacher Mrs.Turner is giving us. I'm a good student and all but come on who could stay up for this long for a lecture. I can barely hear what Mrs.Turner is saying from my sleepiness."Remember class Blah Blah Blah homework Blah Blah is Blah on Blah next week." I didn't know it but I guess others should have known but I was snoring so loud that the teacher stop her lecture and looked at me. I wish I didn't fall asleep then because there is a special thing my teacher likes to do when students fall asleep in her class. She tells the rest of the class to grab their books and on the count of three let them all go so it can make the loudest noise that would wake any one up."OK class ready?" "1....2...3!". All at once they dropped their books making the loudest they could. Yes it woke me but it worked a little to well because it made me fall out my seat head first onto the marble floor. "Owwwwwww" I said. The Mrs.Turner kneeled down next to me and says"Nice to have you back Mr. Richardson." "Would you like to remind the class of what I was talking about while you were having your pleasant slumber in my class.". I couldn't think of a thing to say but luckily the bell rung before I had to say anything. I gave a sigh of relief. I guess that saying is true saved by the bell. I quickly gather my things and rush out the door before she can say a thing to me. I quickly go to a slight jog when I feel like I'm a good distance from my classroom. I search for the nearest bathroom in the school and find one three doors from my right. I walked into the bathroom and walk in front of a sink to wash all the drowsiness from my face while I'm washing my face I stop and look into the mirror and sigh. Rueben Richardson. 15. Brown eyes black hair. 6.4 height. To myself I'm just average but to others I'm special in a sort of way."Yeah right" I say. "Rueben is this a normal thing for you....talking to yourself"an unknown voice says. I quickly turn around of course its my friend Cameron if I wouldn't have turned around I probably wouldn't have known who it was."Heh well I find myself pretty interesting if I say so myself". We both end up laughing from the response I made. As we try to stop laughing Cameron tells me that the gang is waiting for me in the lunchroom. "I would hurry too because you known they can get pretty deadly if they haven't eaten". "Well what are we waiting for I tell him." "Our deaths?" I hear him mutter. "Just come on!" We ran until we got to the lunchroom. Our friends were outside waiting for us and as we slowly walked closer Cameron whispered in my ear "Here she comes". At first I am confused to what he says until it happens. She came at full speed like a runaway train and jump to hit us both on the top of the head."WHAT TOOK YOU TO SO LONG!?!" she yells. I should have known he was talking about Kaylyn only she would do something like this. Kaylyn is 5.4,blonde,and has gray blue mixed eyes. To us she is short but she can pack a punch."Ow!" Cameron and I both say together. "I'm sorry I just had to go to the bathroom." I said rubbing my aching head. "FOR TWENTY MINUTES" she yells. "Hey a boy got to do what a boy got to do."I said. I should have gave a serious response because that response gave me another punch to head. "OW! What do I look like to you a punching bag!" I said. "Well yes" she said. I just stare at her for a moment and just shrugged the response she gave off. "Well what are we waiting for everyone else is inside let's go eat."she said. So we walk into the lunchroom and get in line to get our plates. "What's on the menu for today Kay"Cameron said."Ugh... Pizza and fruit cup or burger and fries." she said. "Hmmm I think I pick pizza" he said. Yeah I thought to myself I think I want pizza too So we swiped our cards got our lunch and sat with the rest of my friends.( Now let me give you the rundown of who my friends are first we have Paige he is 15 brown eyes, blonde and black dreds and a Carmel skin tone,Chris is 15 black hair, brown eyes, and brown skin,Chyenne is tall has blonde hair,and blue eyes,Rhonda has red hair ,brown eyes ,and is Dominican.). While we ate we laughed and talked about anime, videogames ,and who could beat who if they fought against each other. The times we spent laughing were always fun. But now two weeks have passed and all of that has changed everything around me is so foreign. All my friends vanishing before my eyes I have to be careful or I might become a forgotten too.
