Boarding School: The Next Generation

*Just one thing, Nicole, Melanie does not do the flipping hair thing and she can get shy, sometimes Also, this is World History for Melanie*

Melanie
Mel walked to the cafeteria, and ate a couple of waffles. It was an awkward situation, the Ed boy didn't talk. She wasn't so sure on what to do, what to ask about. She ate silently, and said goodbye while walking towards what she thought the World History class was. She walked in to find Bethany, and sat ahead if her. Melanie turned around.

"Hi!" You have World History?" Melanie asked, interested. But before Beth could answer, Shane appeared, saying hi to Mel. The girl turned around and greeted him back. He sat next to Beth, and Melanie turned around a took her notebook out of her school bag. Next thing she knew, the Ed guy was sitting next to her.

"Oh, you could have told me! We could have come here together," she said to Ed. He smiled.

"You didn't ask."

"Neither did you," Melanie replied, grinning too.

**Sorry Kat. I only put that because Beth was overreacting to the situation. She's sort of...paranoid. Mel didn't have to be good at flirting it was just Beth over-reacting. ^_^ Sorry. **

Bethany

Beth sighed a little when Mel started talking to the other guy. Maybe she had a crush on him as well.

"You seen David?" Beth asked her.

"I think I saw him this morning when I was getting ready," Melaine responded, turning towards her.

Beth blushed a little. She wasn't exactly talking to her. She was talking to Shane. Shane and David hung out sometimes so she thought it would be okay to ask him that. From the glare she was recieving from him now, it obviously wasn't.

"Oh, alright," Bethany smiled. Shane rolled his eyes at her while Beth turned back to her notebook until the bell finally rang.

Oh dear, it seems I have let Jack and Mary fall out of the storyline. Anyone care to bring them back in please?

***There are only three tenth graders!!!and since that is the situation. Can David be in JAckie's and Avaline's English Class?

JAckie
I went in to English, and sat down next to JAckie in the row before the last. I was so excited and joyful. I so wanted to make it to to the school's newspaper and start with one of my favorite subjects in school. There were very few people in English, around ten if I'm not wrong. And in front of me sat a guy with short brown hair and grey blue eyes. He looked good and I told Avaline. she laughed at me. Great Help, since I was always so shy when it came to talking to guys. I got tongue tight, I started to stutter, goosebumps rose through my arms and my spine everytime I liked a guy. But my thoughts were interrupted when the teacher started class.

Avaline
Jackie, Jackie, she told me about a guy sitting in front of her but she's too shy when she talks to boys, especially cute boys. I wondered how she had been doing with Brennan. First he was a guy, and second he was...quite good-looking. Despite the fact that he was so rude sometimes. The class started and I turned to look at the teacher. It was very interesting receiving a class in a language I barely knew. My nerves were about to explote when she told us about the reading list. I loved to read, I enjoyed it, but there were about ten books besides the ones I read just for entertainment. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Jackie blankly staring at the board, thinking...bout the guy, maybe. I coughed a little and she smiled. I must have to grow up a bit more to understand all that normal teenageer thoughts.

Ugh. I had a post, but when I spell checked, I accidentally his the back space, and lost it all. So, I have to edit it back in. Ugh.

And lost it again.....now I am writing on Word

Success!

Sorry, but David is in all gifted classes, so unless it is Honors English he can’t, sorry


Shane

Shane pressed his ear to his desk, looking tiredly at his book, listening to the sounds he made as he doodled.

“Mr. Bowin,” said Mr. Boring (that was his real name). “I do not believe there were Dragons, or robots in the American Revolution.”

Thinking quickly, Shane jumped up and said proudly. “But they were, not literally, but they represent the forces that waged during it. See the American people are like the dragon, strong, fierce, mighty, and resilient. Their abilities to keep going almost magical and their passion like a roar of fire, that kept them going under the cold hand of the British.

“While the British, they were the robots. Their hand was strong and forceful, their forces drones that did as they were commanded, with out a thought, or care of the damage they did in the process. These two things go farther than that though-“ Shane looked at the teachers face, and he sighed. “You’re not buying this, are you?”

“Not at all Mr. Bowin, now sit down,” He said.

Shane did as asked and then asked. “Detention?”

“Double, for the doodle, and the disruption,” Boring said and walked back to the front.

Shane looked around the room, at the faces of his classmates, who were amused, but not willing to laugh at the expense of a punishment.

“Nice cover,” Beth said, with a bit of sarcasm.

“I thought he was buying it,” Mel said trying to cheer him up.

“I knew you were doomed,” said the boy next to Mel, who Shane believed to be Ed.

“Bethany, Edward, Melanie, detention as well for talking in class,” Mr. Boring said. The two girls looked at him, moths open, with bewilderment, and some announce in their faces. Shane then got looks of slight rage from them, which he shrugged off. Ed though just sighed.

Shane slid his phone out of his pocket, and carefully sent a text to David.

“Me and Beth got detention, need you to pick up a few plant care shifts for u, meet me at my room during lunch.”

*Come to me writing-gooder. Fill me up with your knowledge. Make me a boy for fifteen minutes so that I can right boiestly straight now!|!

Bolt, my guy's name is Edwin, not Edward. Edward is to much Twilight which is something that it's starting to piss me off...*

Edwin

Great, detention. As much as I tried to stay in mists of the class, there'd surely be someone to screw my comfort. This guy, named Shane, I think, surely had a mind for stories.
Gezz, this was so easy for me. How can't that dude be able to say such as stupidity as that? I see now that it's not everyone that has private classes with a university teacher, hole schooled and has a head to memorize everything, right?
Memories...

*Finish this later*

Ed

Mary

Class started seventeen minutes ago, and Mary was still rushing through the halls trying to get to class. This was not a good start to the school year.

She finally made it to her english class, panting as she burst into the room. "Lo siento, Senora." she apoligized in Spanish, a habit of hers when she was in a rush.

Mrs. Kline frowned at Mary. "In english Ms. Cortez," she said. "And a detention for being late."

Detention. No. Not Mary. Mary never had a detention before in her life.

"But, Mrs. Kline. I didn't mean-"

"Sit down Ms. Cortez," she said, turning back to the board.

Mary went to a desk and sulked.

"Nice job," a guy taunted from the next desk over. Mary just glared at him and went back to sulking.

Desmond~~

The first two classes went by in a breeze and then it was lunch. The cafeteria had a buffet, take what you want and pay, but you couldn't get multiple servings, so you piled it on high the first time. Nothing looked too appealing to me so I just got two slices of pizza and an apple.

I ran up the stairs to the courtyard and sat down at one of the wooden picnic tables, hoping someone would recognize me and sit there too.

Mykolas

"Nice job," i said to iclisa as she began to tell me and Violet on how she had finishe rope climbing in less than 20 seconds. Before me, a girl, maybe from Spain or something looked at me with suspiscious eyes. Did i say something wrong???

I glanced at Violet and she shrugged while Iclisa continued to talked.
"Ms. Nadean," The teacher said her anema dn Iclisa sprung upwards with body firma nd straight.
"Yes,Miss..."
"Detention for talking, we had already started lessons."
i looked at Iclisa who was not at all surprise. Instead she saluted her and went back to her seat. The class began to chuckle until the teacher ordered them to silence. Behind me, Iclisa asked Violet if detention means 50 push ups. Violet sighed before she explained. Iclisa nodded and i sulked my head to catch the glimpse of the girl.
"Great," she said, "I'm with some military freak." i focused my eyes whispering, "She's not a freak...just a bit mental."

ICLISA

Violet told me what a detention was about and i was dissapointed that it was not 50 push up but still relieve. When she explained the teacher asked me a question i did not catch.
"Miss, can you repeat it..." i said like an order. Violet whispered me the question. SOme guy called Shakespeare. I know nothing about him but when he told me some battle stuff.
I raised my hand to answer.
"Yes, Ms. Nadean." she said.
"I disagree with the text. On a battle, miss..." i began to explain how in King Lear, the writer tell on what is happening at the backdrop not at the forefront whch is something i hate. After my 10 minute speech, the teacher looked at me and pointed to Violet.
"Can you two meet me after class as part fo your detention..."
Violet argued but she argued that Violet gave her the wrong answer. She sighed and sulked and while the teacher continued to teach, i looked at her quizzically. Before me, Mykolas and some Hispanic girl look at me with curiousity. I shrugged before Mykolas threw me some paper.
In it were the words, "Please don't embarass me, Iclisa." i don't understand what he meant and threw a perfect shot at the rubbish bin beside the teacher and again another irritation at her eyes.

Jackie
The English class went by fast and we were in lunch now. The corridors of the school were fast and there was noise everywhere. Avaline and I got to the lunchroom and saw it was full. I had always being afraid of lunch rooms, since they were so big and crowded. I always had a table though. but now, I had no idea where to sit.I suddenly saw Cornelia. Iclisa and Mykolas. It was then that I remembered about asking I lcisa what was going on with her.
I ran toward her and finally reached them.
"hey " I said.
"Hey" Cornelia answered. "Violet and Iclisa are staying for detention"
I gasped "Really?"
"yeah" Mykolas said rolling his eyes. I looked at Iclisa and she looked quiet troubled so, I just decided to wait until we arrived to our dorm to ask her.I followed them to their table and sat with them.

Jonathan

Jonathan headed to his next class. He was still a little disorganized from his rough morning, but he felt a lot better now that he wasn't rushing everywhere.

He looked for his roomate or at least someone he knew. Then, relief came his way as he spotted Ed walking out of a class.

"Hey," Jonathan breathed, walking towards him. "I haven't seen anyone all day."

Ed nodded. That was just him, most always silent. Or at least around Jonathan. "Tough morning?" He asked.

Jonathan nodded. "Yeah, woke up late."

Ed nodded. "What's you're next class?" He asked.

Jonathan looked down at his slip of paper and laughed. "Lunch. I guess I'll see you later than," he smiled as he veered off to the cafeteria.

Inside it wasn't exactly packed, but it wasn't empty either. Jonathan took one of the last open tables left and took a bite out of what appeared to be a burger. Jonathan just shrugged. It didn't taste that bad.

**Anyone want to eat lunch with poor, lonely Jonathan?**

May I sit with Jonathan?
Avalinethis is Shina's character.

I didn't seet with Jackie since I couldn't find her. The whole lunch room tables were awfully corded but there was one in the back tha was empty, except for a thin boy with brown hair. I walked toward it. I saw he was eating, so I came close and pulled a chair as I flashed a smile in his direction.
"Hi" I said smiling to him
"Hi " he said shyly.
"I'm Avaline and you're?"
"Jonathan"
"OH, nice to meet you. This place is so overcrowded. I didn't even find my friend" speaking a bit too fast. I was very friendly so the least I could do was talk to him. He looked a bit shy and quiet.
"So, hw's school so far?" I asked smiling.

**Sure! (: But Jonathan has black hair. lol. It's fine though.**

Jonathan

Jonathan shrugged a little. "Not too bad. Rough morning, mostly because I overslept. What about you?" He asked.

"Not too bad," she smiled, being friendly. "You have a slight hispanic accent," Avaline laughed. "Where are you from?"

"Orginally, I'm from Mexico, but really, I was raised here, I'm only half Mexicano," he laughed a little, using a commonly known spanish word. "I visit Mexico alot though. I have friends there and...well, it's pretty much the only true home I have." He paused and looked away.

"What do you mean?" Avaline asked. Jonathan sighed.

"I'm a foster kid," he told her in a way that closed the subject. He didn't need any questions about his life or his parents.

"Oh," she said, blushing a little. "I'm sorry."

Jonathan shrugged. "Dosen't matter. The family I'm with now wants me to have a good education and that's how I got here. I'm just glad I'm here," he said, trying to pick up the conversation again. He didn't mean to be rude, in fact, he actually like the girl.

"So how'd you get to be here then?" He asked Avaline.

*Can anyone bring Mel in? I'm kinda blocked >.<*

Avaline
I wasn't sure what to answer to the question, but I tried.
"Well, my mother sent me here" I said, "she wanted me to be a normal, make friends, study in a normal school" He smiled at me; he looked pretty when smiling. I smiled back.
"YOu aren't from here are you?" he asked me, I guess my accent was too obvious.
"No, I'm from France " I sighed, i missed my country, America was nothing like it. "Big city, lots of lights and glamour"
I looked down at my watch and we still had plenty of time to sapek. I liked him, actually, he seemed pretty nice, with a troubled history though. I most have seemed like the spoiled rich girl and I didn't want to seem like that. we were silent for amoment, but I smiled.
"So do you mis your country" he asked
"Oui" he laughed when I said that.

JAckie
I sat wih Cornelia dn Iclisa, and looked for Avaline but she was nowhere to be seen. I began munching my food as we talked.
"How was your day" Cornelia asked.
"Quite easy, even a bit fun"
"That is good" Iclisa answered
"And how about you two? " I asked, wanting to know what happened to i clisa in the first period.
