Forbidden Love

First Love

It was the first day of school and he was standing there in the distance. I didn't know who he was because I had just moved from Chicago to California about a month ago. He was the most handsome guy in the school, well, that's what I thought. I could hear all the other girls either making fun of his baggy jeans and blue T-shirt or saying how cute he was. I didn't care what people thought about him, to me he was the one I wanted in my life. Later on in the school day, I found out that I had all my classes with him and afterwards, I finally found out his name. His name was Lorenzo, but I could hear his friends always calling him Lencho. On my second day of school, my teachers assigned us seats. In my first period class I sat next to a girl named Swiftkill, she was a pretty cool girl and we connected pretty quick so I decided to call her Swifty.

In my second and third periods I sat next to Lorenzo and when he introduced himself to me I panicked and asked the teacher if I could be excused. When I looked back through the window of the door he look kinda shocked and I wonder if it was because of me. When I took my seat next to him he asked me, "What happened are you okay?" I told him, "Oh nothing I'm fine, thank you," and he continued to get introduce himself. "My name is Lorenzo but everyone calls me Lencho." We shook hands and then I told him, "Nice to meet you Lencho, my name is Valentina and not like the hot sauce. In English my name means Valentines." He giggled and that kinda got me mad because I don't like people making fun of my name. I was surprised to hear him say " well that's a unique name, I like it." I thanked him and class ended. I then headed to fourth period gym.

When I got to gym, I changed and went to the spot they told me to go to. I met a pretty radical girl named Nat, well, that's what she told me to call her. She was funny, and especially loud. We got in trouble after 10 mins of meeting each other. We had a pretty fun class together and Swifty was in our gym class too. We all become pretty good friends. I was excited for my second day of school because I didn't expect to find a pretty nice little group of girls, I usually always find myself with girls that don't treat me right and didn't really consider me as a friend. Nat and Swifty were nothing like that, they learned more about me in one day then I knew about myself in the 14 years I was alive. I also noticed that Lencho was in our gym class staring at us, I didn't know who he was looking at but I hoped it was me.
