UNEXPECTED

Chapter 6

I walk into the class room and let myself fall into the seat next to Allie, trying to forget the conversation I just had.

Biology passes fastly and I walk over to French Class which is probably the most boring class ever with the most awkward persons but at least the teacher is okay.

"We're gonna analyse the first verses of the poet on p.90 now. What is your first impression of this poet?" The teacher asks calmly.
I constantly open my notes and raise my hand.
Since all of the students in this class seem to be lazy and not very intelligent I am the only one that has something to say.

After speaking for about half a minute about the sadness which gets expressed through this poet and its effect on the reader he seems kind of impressed.

"Well that's a good interpretation, what do the others think?"

I sigh cause i'm relieved that I could put a good impression on this teacher and look to the other side of the room to see if someone wants to add something.

"No one? he says and sits down on his chair.

"Well guys you have to do something to get a good grade. So I suggest you-"

My thoughts thrive off to Timothée and I take my notebook and write down a few things I need to do when I get home.

After class I literally rush out the door and bump directly into Allie.

"Oh my God Rachel why are you walking so fast-  I just wanted to come get you from this boring class!" she laughs and I join her.

"You are absolutely right. It is boring." I cry.

"Well I have a good message for you. Today is gonna be the first high school party since school has started!

"And?" I ask her with a confused face.

"Of course we're gonna get ready together and afterwards go to the party!" she smiles and claps her hands, obviously being proud of the plan she made for us.

"Mh" I laugh. "I'm not sure"

"Why?" she asks with a shocked face.

"Well, the last party I've been to hasn't been really my type. Besides I'm not really the party kinda person"

"Wait which party?" She seems confused.

"The one that took place the night before school began. I think it was on Allcaster Street. I actually just went there because I wanted to get a first impression of how the PHHS students are"

"Oh my god that's probably been a junior party. Whatever, I swear this one tonight is gonna be better!" She promises me and I feel kind of not convinced. But why not give it a try. I don't have anything to do anymore, I've done all assignments which are due next week.

"K. 7pm my house? I'll text you the address. Although I don't really need to because I live right next to Greg."

"Yay! You do? I know for sure that it's gonna be great!" She laughs and hugs me.

After I get home from school I fall directly into my bed to reflect the last three days.
- I've met two really nice persons.
- One lives right next to me.
- One's coming over later.
- All my teachers (even the strict ones! Who would have thought) seem to be really okay.

It's been only three days but I have to say that I am actually happy.

Turns out having no expectations is great because it can only turn out better.

I'm tired but since it is already 5pm and Allie wanted to come by at 7pm I turn music on -the new album of Lana del Rey- and hop into the shower.

Her music is really relaxing and that's why I love listening to it when I'm alone or at home.

Allie rings the bell on time at exactly 7pm and I run downstairs to open her the door and wow she looks hot.

She is wearing a short skirt and a dark blue long sleeve. It's not too much but it still shows skin and that's actually an outfit I would wear too.

"Wow Allie you look so good" I tell her right away and pull her into a hug. "Come in"

"Aw thank you! You do too and after we put on our makeup we'll look even better" she says and holds her makeup bag up she has in her left hand.

"Right, lets go upstairs."

We take about one hour to get ready and talk about the most different things.

"Tell me... do you have a boyfriend?" I ask her while I put lashes on.

"Well, I had. For about two years but we broke up in January."

"Oh I'm sorry. I hope you're okay." I really hope I didn't bring a sensitive topic up and look over to her but she doesn't seem hurt.

"Oh honestly don't worry, we broke up for good."

"That's nice, I feel like it's really rare that couples break up for good and stay friendly with each other nowadays ." I tell her honestly.

"Yeah, totally! Do you have a boyfriend?"

"No, there's actually never been someone that I could possibly have a crush on or something."

"I understand. Well, maybe you're gonna find someone today" she grins and puts on more powder.

"Yeah definitely " I say sarcastically and she looks to me with an euphoric face which makes me assume she didn't get the irony in it.

"Not. God, Allie that was a joke." I shake my head laughing and stand up from my bed.

"Well who knows. Are you ready? I think I'm finished with my makeup." she says and stands up from the ground.

I look into my mirror and am kinda satisfied.
"Yup, I'm just gonna put my outfit on and then we can go." I announce and walk into my dress room.

I pick out a black high waist jeans and a tight long armed t-shirt, also in black. A little colourless but firstly I love black and secondly I'm gonna wear neon coloured shoes and a neon bag so that's fine.

When I come out she seems at least as impressed as I was when I saw her outfit.

"Dang! You look bomb." She says and stands up from my bed. "Also it's time to go c'mon!!" she shouts and walks out of my room and down the stairs.
I quickly spray a small amount of parfume onto my wrist, neck and behind each ear, put my earrings on and follow her down the stairs.
