The tiếp theo ngày - Eric's perspective
It was a new day. A ngày not to embarrassed. A ngày to make something new. A ngày to get my device back. Athena walked up to me in the cafeteria and put Delor on the bàn "Here. bạn dropped this when bạn ran out," she said
My face turned scarlet " T-Thanks Did bạn turn it on?" I asked. I knew if she turned him on I would be screwed
She nodded "Yeah but it wouldn't tell us anything. It called Tom a dumbass,"
My burned because I hid in my laughter. That was funny. "Okay then bye," I snorted out
She looked at me weird "Bye. Also Eric?" she asked
"Yes?" I asked
"If bạn ever look through my stuff again. I will punish you," she đã đưa ý kiến leaving me behind
I burst out laughing. Delor knew Tom was a dumbass even now! That was funny. I eventually stopped laughing because something crossed my mind. What did Athena mean bởi that? Was it the same kind of punishment she gave me in the future: Embarrassment?
I held out Delor "Good job," I đã đưa ý kiến to him
He beeped "Oh hello Master Eric. I'm glad to see you," he said
I laughed "You know bạn don't have any eyes right?"
He beeped "You know what I mean. I'm just glad I don't have to talk to your dumbass uncle," he said
I laughed "Yeah. Do me a favor and make a scan on the whole cafeteria to see if there is any people that could get Athena sick," I said
A faint red light shot out of Delor and scanned the cafeteria. The red light lingered over Brandon "Well that boy has a disease inside of him and doesn't know it yet," he said
I smiled " Well I'm glad he is not near her hoặc is he???!!!" I asked as I watched Brandon walk up to Athena. He started talking to her and she turned scarlet
I gasped in horror " Delor tell me what they are saying!" I commanded
"Here," he đã đưa ý kiến and I heard everything
"Athena right?" Brandon asked
Athena turned red "Yeah?"
"You look beautiful," he said
She smiled "Thank bạn but bạn never noticed me before," she said
He seemed offended and put his hand over his chest "i did too! I just was to shy to admit. I liked bạn everyday I've seen you. Do bạn want to go out tonight?" he asked
"Yeah sure!" she exclaimed
He smiled "Great. I'll pick bạn up at sixish. Here's my number," he đã đưa ý kiến handing her a piece of paper. He walked away
I put my head down and whispered to Delor "Turn off now," I said.
"Are bạn going to talk to her Eric?" he asked
I nodded "Yeah. Were friends. She'll understand my feelings. Now turn off," I commanded
He beeped and turned off. I gathered all my stuff and headed over to Athena. It was a good thing she was alone. "Uh hi Athena," I đã đưa ý kiến nervously
She looked up and smiled at me "Oh hello Eric. Do bạn want bạn want something?" she asked
I sat down "Yeah I want to know what the hell bạn are doing,"
She frowned "What do bạn mean? I'm just sitting here talking to you,"
I rubbed my face "No I mean why are bạn going out with Brandon?" I demanded
Her face fell and she glared at me "How do bạn know that? Have bạn been-"
I cut her off "Just answer the câu hỏi Athena," I commanded
She pouted "Well I liked him for a long time and was hoping for a long time for this to happen. Why do bạn not get that? Why are bạn not being supportive of me?" she asked
I sighed "Well I don't think he is a good influence on bạn and bạn might stoop to his level. What do bạn think happened to his past girlfriend?" I asked
She suddenly flew out of her seat. Her face flushed, fists clenched "Who do bạn think bạn are? My father?" she demanded She then stormed away glancing back yelling "He probably broke up with Kate because he realized he loved me!!"
I saw her storm out of the cafeteria and meet up with her friends. They first jumped up and down with exitment and then I saw them glaring at me and her Những người bạn hugging her. They eventually left my eyesight
I slammed my head against the bàn and turned on Delor "Sir I don't think that was the best approach," he said
I sighed "Thanks Delor bạn can put that on the obvious danh sách now," I moaned
Tom sat down tiếp theo to me "Dude I told bạn many times before. Don't talk to yourself. People start to stare and you'll ruin your reputation," he said
I brought my head up "What reputation?" I asked
He smiled "Of being Những người bạn with the hottest bad boy in the whole school. Don't mess it up," he said
I rubbed my eyes "Whatever man and I wasn't talking to myself bạn must be seeing hoặc hearing things," I said
He got defensive "Dude I am not. Admit it hoặc I'll beat the shit out of you," he said
I smirked. He did this nearly every week. I never did beat the shit of me "Go ahead. bạn never do it anyway. Besides Athena cares about me and she will kick your đít, mông, ass if bạn kick mine," I said
He smirked now "Yeah but she isn't here is she? Besides she is mad at you," he đã đưa ý kiến putting his face close to mine
My face fell. Crap I hadn't thought of that. He could of done that time.
A distraction came down and sat tiếp theo to Tom. "Hey Tom. Why doesn't your sister like me?" he asked
Tom sighed "Jason. Get lost. Can't bạn bạn see I'm in the middle of something?" he asked
Jason narrowed his eyebrows as he looked at us. "What? Getting it on with your boyfriend?" he asked smiling
Both of our cheeks burned but Tom was flushed "No! What do bạn want?" he demanded
Jason smirked "Well now I want to know if bạn guys are going to do it now," he said
Tom's fists clenched and was about to strike Jason when I got to him first. I grabbed Jason's shit cổ áo and yanked him close to me "Listen Asshole we are both not feeling are best to deal with this shit right so tell us what the hell bạn want!" I hollered
His face fell. It looked like he died inside "I-I-I j-just wanted...to..know..why...Athena...doesn't like me," he đã đưa ý kiến hestiatately
I tightened my grip on him "I don't know maybe it's because she doesn't like bạn right now because bạn are annoying as hell and Oh crap," I stopped talking. I realized what I was doing. I couldn't do that to my future father
Jason got out of my grip "What? Did bạn realize that bạn liked bạn too? Do I have to compete for her love?" I asked
I sat down "No no. I like family. I must apoligize to her," I đã đưa ý kiến getting up
"Why should you? bạn told her the truth," he said
I didn't realize until later that Tom always knew when I had a fight with Athena "Yeah but the only way she can trust me again is if I say sorry and I was wrong. I'm going," I said
I left the bàn and went to go look for her. I swear I heard them talking about me "Your friend is weird," "Tell me about it"

It’s raining on my window pane,
Inside this house looks so lame.
I’m so funny, so bored hunni.
Nothing much to do but to be a horn dog,
Being bored makes me write in my log.
Are we counting up hoặc down?
Nothing seems to go around.
Boredom, bạn don’t like him.
Boredom, bạn wanna shoot him.
Don’t make that move.
bạn get in trouble when looking for fun,
bạn get so tired when the ngày is done.
Soon as bạn get in bed,
bạn remember what should be done instead.
Just forget the problem.
Get a goodnight sleep and dream.
Forget about the boring adventure,
bạn should’ve discovered something in nature.
Boredom, forget them.
Boredom, sleep before the morning.

Sleep was improbable
Emerging from my bed
Like a delicate butterfly
Raindrops pouring on my smooth, darkened window.
Pondering miraculous thoughts
About being a teen in America
Freedom to express myself as an individual
I want to relinquish my profound story
Being a teenager with freedom is
Hopeful
Rewarding
Honorable
Desirable
The past is behind me, the future is just beyond my grasp
Learning to be flawless through life's experiences
Having the pleasure to persue my ambitious talent
Being a teen in America simply is my stepping
stone to future greatness.
