Falling
I am surprised. I have never seen the girl before in my whole high school career. Seeing her sitting there alone makes me want to go over there and speak to her but the guys, oh man the guys will never let me live it down if i do. Lucy looks to me as if she doesnt have a care in this whole intire world. I have a feeling that if the whole world would catch on fire she wouldnt care one single bit. Now that i think about it i have heard some weird things going on with her. She has this super creepy boyfriend and is really into drugs. But i also heard that her dad had a massive heart attack a few years ago and died. For some reason as i look at her i worry. I feel like i should really care about her. Maybe i should go up to her. She looks up as if she can feel me staring at her. Our eyes meet...

LUCY
Some one is staring at me. I can just feel their eyes burning me. Cant people just keep their eyes to them selves, come on we are not in the zoo. I try looking around the cafeteria looking for the creep that cant stop staring. I find them, or him. Seth Marshal. Our eyes lock onto eachother. I wonder what he wants. A guy like him should not even know that i exist let alone stare at me. Oh let me guess the rummors of me being in a mental hospital got you hooked? Even though Seth is one of the star basketball players, he is one of the well know goody-goody christian boys here. I really hope he doesnt come over here. Sorry buddy, im a lost cause... or so im told.
Even when our eyes met he didnt look away. What is going on... Why am i surprised? Wasnt this what i expect from almost everyone in this stupid school? Well that actually might be the answer... ALMOST everyone. Now is one of those times where i wished i was telepathic. I would say to him "freak stop lookin at me or i'll set my boyfriend on you, you are giving me the creeps" Yup thats what i would say. I laugh internally at my joke. Im such a comedian. Just thinking about"setting" Dominic on all of these wimps makes me want to laugh out loud. I harden my glance at him.
