Meeting

Running down to the school entrance, Christopher waited patiently for his friend who he was going to switch classes. Once in sight, Christopher ran to his friend and asked him to go with him to the Admin office. Confused, but with no time to ask questions as Christopher pulled his friend along quickly to the office. Immediately once inside the office, Christopher explained what he and his friend would be doing. The counselor asked the stunned boy beside him and he just simply nodded his head in agreement not knowing what was going on. It was a convenience to the boy since he could now get a heads up from Christopher, who happens to be in the top 5 of the senior class if there would be pop quizzes or tests etc., but how did it benefit Christopher? He couldn't help but wonder until it hit him, 'Gabriella!!!! Hmmm, did Christopher really fall in love at first sight?' Debating on asking his friend about his reasonings or staying quiet, he decided the latter.

Once all the paperwork was done the boys were able to leave the Admin Office. Christopher looked like he had just accomplished a major task. His friend just glanced at him perplexed, 'What does Christopher see in piggy tail bumpkin? Did he get too much sun during summer or did he study too much? Lexi won't be happy about this, but then again there is no way for her to know we changed classes.'

Gabriela paused as soon as she saw Christopher. 'It's him!!, but he wasn't here yesterday.' Glancing around she didn't find the other boy that sat in the seat yesterday. Christophers happiness turned into frustration as he watched Gabriela's confused face search for his friend, 'wasn't she staring and blushing at me yesterday?!' Christopher got up from his feet and walked straight up to Gabriela, "There were some last minute schedule changes, so I'll be in this class from now on." Gabriela looked up to him for just a moment when he finished speaking, nodded her head in agreement then went to sit down. It was briefly, but Christopher could have sworn she has green eyes.

After class Christopher called out to Gabriela asking if he could walk her home. Gabriela had already told her Mom she didn't need to pick her up and her Dad was working. She thought to call on her Brother, but he worked far away from her new home so she was stuck. Not wanting the company, but not wanting to speak to this boy, who from some reason wouldn't leave her alone. 'Just agree to walk with him, answer all his questions and be done with it, there is no way he will continue to bother you after his curiosity has been quenched,' she decided as she turned to face him, but not looking up at him. She said the direction she lived in, he said that was ok.
