Rush to the Alter
I was good at biology. I guess it was because Dad was a doctor and what he did interested me. I took my seat at the second lab table and waited for Mr. Likes to begin. I was humming a song when I heard someone sit down next to me. Startled, I stopped humming and spun around in my chair.
"Clair de Lune? Didn't pick you for that type. Sorry about earlier; I tend to have a bit of a temper. Alice invited me to finish lunch with her and…um…Rosalie. So…..," she trailed off looking at me like I had a third eye. It was then I realized that I was staring at her with a puzzled look on my face.
"Oh s…sorry," I stammered. "I'm just not used to someone hearing me hum let alone actually knowing what I was humming. Apology accepted," I said with a smile.
"Oh…well you have a nice voice, " she said blushing. Then I heard her say, "of course he does," under her breath. No doubt not meant for me to hear.
"I'm sorry, what do you mean?" I asked a little taken aback. Was that a dig?
"Oh…umm…I just mean that sometimes I feel like God doesn't evenly distribute things that's all. I didn't mean anything by it," she mumbled and turned away.
All I could do was laugh. She was glaring. Great. I had managed to do it again, and before I could apologize or explain why I thought that was funny Mr. Likes decided to start class. She wouldn't even look at me. Should I pass her a note? Yeah great idea, I could tell her in a note that I thought she was perfect. Way to be a seventh grader Edward. I guess I would just tell her after class that I thought she didn't see herself very clearly. She knew Clair de Lune; no one ever knew that song, and on the inside of her book I noticed an Iron & Wine sticker. Hmm…we had a lot in common. I bet we'll be good friends. I'll make sure we'll be good friends.
"Okay, pop quiz next time," Mr. Likes said as I heard chairs begin to shuffle around.
She was gone. How had she sneaked out so quickly? Great. I guess I'll just have to talk to her another time. If she ever even looks at me again. Way to go Edward.
