The Abnormal

~Chapter 4~

-A New Friendship

(Elena's POV- Next Day)

I wake up the next morning at six a.m. like normal. This time I don't end up falling out of my bed, good sign that today should be better. I take a shower, brush my teeth, get ready for school, you know......my normal routine. I end up walking to school this morning and managed to not get lost. All good signs, now if I can get through the rest of the day with out dropping my books, getting hit in the head with a locker door, or getting into a fight with anyone I will have the best day ever.

I finally arrive at the school. I decide instead of walking up the long brick pathway to the school I would take a short cut through the grass which was filled with students talking and playing around. But halfway through my journey I end up tripping and falling on a bag in the grass that I didn't see was there. Why in this great world did I decide to take the short cut?! I quickly turn around on my back to look straight up. Only to find a pale girl with dark long brown hair and big hazelish eyes staring down at me.

With a sweet voice the girl says "Are you OK?" I could hear the concern in her voice. She puts her hand out and helps me back to my feet.

I say "Ya, I'm fine. Thanks..." I stop hoping she will tell me her name.

"My name is Winters. Krystal Winters. What's your name?" She says with a smile.

"My name is Elena Sarcov." I say returning her smile.

"Well, Elena Sarcov you look new and lost. Please say your new, because if you aren't that will be embarrassing." She says.

"No embarrassment needed, I am new. Maybe a little lost as well, but it is only my second day." I said.

"Well I can help you around if you want." She said. I give her a questioning look.

"Your not an axe murderer right?" I say squinting my eyes at her in a playful manner.

"No. And I don't plan to become one." She said, slightly giggled at me for even thinking that.

"Ok, just making sure. You never know." I say putting my hands up in defense.

"Wait, are you the kid that everyone in my class is talking about?" She asks.

"What? I don't remember you seeing you in my classes yesterday." I said.

"I wasn't here yesterday. I was out sick for the past week. But everyone was telling me that we got the new kid. I bet if you look on you schedule right now it says Mr. Young first period." She said.

I look on my schedule at Tuesday first period and it says 'Living Environment Mr. Young' "Your right." I say nodding my head.

"Question, is Mr. Young always chill and calm?" I ask.

"Yep, one time he even started to just talk about his life in the middle of a lesson. He said and I quote 'I never liked my first name Leopoldo. I always wanted to change it to Leo but I keep forgetting.' I tried so hard not to laugh, but my face was bright red and I looked like I my head was going to explode" She said and we both laugh at the image.

"Wow. Does he have memory loss or something because how do you forget that you want to change your name, multiple times?" I said/asked.
