today is the last day of school
finally right ??
we are now freshman
how cool
the final bell rings
and when i tell you everyone runs out
i mean it
i'm walking home
when i hear a kid yelling from behind me
i turn around and see a kid on the floor
and two boys about to hit him with a wood paddle
shit juniors
i completely forgot about the freshman
paddling ritual
i could either try and help and get beat
or run
i think i'll run
i turn around
" hey you " someone yells
shit
i turn around
and then start running
" get her " someone yells
i hear running behind me
i trip over something
oh my god
great
i fall onto the grass
" wakey wakey baby " the boy yells
" arms out " he says
for the girls they hit us on our arms
but for the boys
they hit their asses
" oh come on " i groan
i put them out
he lifts up the paddle
" hey s-stop ! " i hear someone yell from behind me
the boy looks over my shoulder
i turn around
and see a boy i've never seen before
what the hell is he doing
" kid get out of here this is for junior and freshman only " he says
" what- i- i am a freshman " he says
" what the fuck you are ? " he asks
i look at the junior and then the freshman
" you wanna get hit then ? " he asks laughing
" no i want you to not hit y/n " the freshman says
how and why does this random kid know my name
" what's your name kid " the junior asks
" griffin stag " " why do you care " he says
big mistake
" why do i care ? " the boy asks
" get over here you little shit and i'll show you why " he says
he starts to run to riffin
i get up and start to run away
thanks riffin stag
i run past a group of freshman's
and they start to run with me too
they run to a car
i stop and run to them
" let me get in yeah " i yell
" sure hurry up " one of them yells
i get in
" hurry the hell up ! " one of them yells
" who's even driving this " i yell
" a freshman ! " another one yells
" what the fuck ! " i yell
i turn around to face the back window
" holy shit the juniors are right there " i yell
" DRIVE " someone yells
i turn to one of the boys with long dark brown hair
" whats your name ? " i ask
" mitch kramer " " you ? " he says
" y/n smith " i say
" pretty name " he says smiling
" yeah i know " i say
we laugh
" hey do you wanna come to my baseball game tonight ? it's at 7:30 at the park down the street from here an- " i cut him off
" stop the car ! " i yell
" what stop the car ? " the driver yells
" are you crazy " mitch says
" no just stop the car " i say
mitch looks at the freshman in the front seat
he nods
and the car stops
" thanks mitch " i say
i quickly get out of the car
i run to riffin who's sitting down on the floor
" holy shit riffin are you okay ? " i ask
" it- its griffin " he says
" right sorry, griffin are you okay ? " i say
" fine " he says
i hold out my hands
and he grabs onto them
he pulls my hands and i fall on the grass next to him
" ow " i say
i sit up
" sorry " he says
" it's fine just next time don't grab onto my hands so hard " i say
" hey freshman ! " someone yells from behind us
we look at eachother and then quickly get up
" just follow me " i say
i grab onto his hand
and we start to run
" your dead freshys " a junior yells from behind us
i look behind us
and see the junior is about to grab griffins shirt
i push griffin to the side
and the junior falls
but griffin does too
" shit get up ! " i yell
he gets up and we start to run again
we run all the way to my house
we get inside and lock the door
" oh my god " i say trying to catch my breath
i don't think my moms home
" let's go in my room yeah ? " i say
he nods
" yeah " he says
we walk to my room
i open my door and walk to my bed
i fall on it
" i saved your ass out there " i say slightly laughing
" actually that stupid junior got me " he says
he falls next to me
we look at eachother
" your welcome riffin " i say smiling
" it's griffin, y/n " he says
" right " i say
" can i ask you something ? " i ask
" yeah " he says
" how do you know my name " " i've never seen you before " i say
" oh we have uhm science together " " i sit behind you " he says
" why have i never noticed you ? " i ask slightly laughing
" no one notices me " he says frowning
" oh come on don't say that " i say
" i always try and get to science early so i can see you walk in
just so i can see you " he says
" i sit in the bathroom stall at lunch because i don't have anyone to sit with " he says
" no one knows me "
" wait wait wait griffin.. you like me ? " i say
he sits up
" i should get home now, my moms probably waiting for me " he says
he stands up
and walks out of the room
i get up and walk after him
" griffin wait " i yell
he turns around
" i'll see you tomorrow at the roller rink " i say smiling
" and the day after that " i say
he smiles
" yeah " he says nodding
i smile
and he walks out of the front door
