Cole Johnstons Narrative

Everything was dark, black and quiet. Nothing felt right and when the flickering light at the end of the hall stopped and stayed lit I wanted to run. Slowly shadows grew on the floor and on the wall, people I knew appearing from the darkness. Zack the cheater, My hate filled mother, abusive father, my brother. Every person that causes me pain appeared even my once best friend Nikki who left me for the cheerleaders. I felt uncomfortable and was slowly suffocating from the blank looks and the little light that shined in the hall.

Jaden Hayes has a lot to be sad about, and yet, the six-year-old boy from Savannah, Georgia is on a mission to put a smile on the face of everybody he comes in contact with who looks like they could use a little cheering up.

Like clockwork we begin our studies. We were working on a project and I was feeling pretty confident about it. As we were busy working a teacher came in looking distraught; I had figured that a student had gotten into a fight in the hallway and she needed some help breaking them up considering all the commotion outside. After she received the news my teachers face had turned white, as if she had seen a ghost. She had calmly walked to the TV, as if in disbelief of the events that had happen, and

I woke up to the bell. Of course. It seemed like I had been falling asleep in every class lately! Finals were well on their way and teachers were trying to cram everything into the next few weeks. I got up from my seat grabbing my overstuffed binder and holding it tight. "have a good day" I said to my teacher and cringed at the eyebrow raise and smirk I got in response. Of course he noticed I fell asleep. I felt bad about it every time it wasn’t that he was a bad teacher or that I was bored I just could not seem to keep myself awake! I had been staying up late every night after rehearsal to finish all my homework and it was getting to be too much for me.

Once upon a time there was a beautiful teenager by the name Carlie Collins, she was a fairly nice girl, but she did have some secrets. One day about a month ago Charlie went to the cafe and she saw Kevin a guy that went to her school, but not just any guy it was her biggest crush and he invited her to sit and have a latte with him. The two chatted for hours until Carly realized it was late and she had to go and as she wrapped up their conversation he leaned in and gave her kiss Carly smiled and played it cool, but when she got home she started freaking out and kept all her feeling to herself. The next morning Carly got up on a sunny sunday nothing could ruin this day as she heads down stairs for breakfast her mom sits at the table and wants to have a serious conversation with her Carly hates serious conversations from her mom because she never knows what to expect.

The carriage ride to the immense stone church was far too short. Cole steps out of the gloomy coach and walks to the other side. Opening the wagon’s gate, he holds out his hand to help Sienna out. Taking Cole’s hand, the princess exits the carriage. She starts toward the church gate, but is held back; her black cotton dress is caught on the carriage door. She begins to tug at the fabric, not caring if it rips, but then Cole is there; a split second later, her skirt is free.

I stepped into Mrs.Swartz’s 2nd grade class and I was frozen because,none of my friends were in her class.Just a ton of strangers.On the outside it may have looked like I was calm,but in the inside I was going all over the place,and I was so scared.There were name tags with cute apples on them,and all I could think was”Oh great,I have to sit next to a boy.”There was this girl in my group that seem a little hyper.Well,maybe more than a little hyper she was like “Hey!What’s your name!” and I whispered in a shy voice”Dinara.”Then I asked her and she said “Bri.”

My ear picks it up and perceives by the twanging and clanging that it is time for class. All the students quickly take a seat and begin to mumble and gossip amongst themselves. I just sit here and pick at the lovely little nail polish on my fingernails. The spots of nail polish flake off like a scab. The teacher tells everyone to be quiet and asks some students to help her pass out books. When it comes to be my turn to get a book, I thank my peer for handing me a book.

It was quiet and boring. I just laid there. I was all alone except for the occasional person walking past. Than suddenly a girl named Leah picked me up. She put me in her pocket the walked to class. I was relieved to be picked up but also nervous. Who knows what would happen.

t was like any normal day at Richmond high school. Everyone was walking to or from class, getting in their lockers, or using the restroom. As everyone got to their class the bell rang and the teachers shut the doors. I was sitting in my first-hour waiting watching the clock tick slowly. I had already finished my work so I was just sitting quietly staring at the clock. The bell rang as we all went to our lockers, then our next class. In the second hour my phone went off while I was trying to listen to music, my friend messaged me but I ignored it. While sitting in the second hour I accidentally fell asleep while waiting for the teacher to tell everyone it was time

We all in school we learning about William Shakespeare, I said yuck Romeo and Joliet, Then went like EHHHHHHH UGHH UGHH don’t want to hear a rhyming for love plus don’t want to see Zac Efron then I feel asleep, and I dreamt of something, then I woke up cause someone rushed into the room and said “Mrs. Smith come here u got to look at this “but Ms. Smith wasn’t the only teacher was called up. Teachers was called up too they told the students to stay in their classrooms. I said “ohhh come on” then I went to sleep, then the bell rung I was like “bruhhh” I said that’s all on the way back to class my stomach was growling so Mr. Smith was ordering pizza but the bell rung so we went home but me, Vic, Gilmer, Xavier was

Meanwhile, back at Saint Columbkille, all the students were quietly waiting for their teachers to return until one kid jumped on a desk and started dancing, which pretty much launched the whole school into a crazy riot. “What am I gonna do, what am I gonna do?” Jack questioned. “Ah hah, a stop light!” “If I can just time it right..........” “There's no use trying to run, well get you eventually!” Mrs. Foix yelled. Then, Jack pasted the green stoplight, and before the teachers got there, the stoplight turned red. “Aw man, we have to wait until it turns green again!” Mrs. Foix complained. “Hah, see ya!” Jack teased as he stared at the teachers. Then he ran full speed, face first into a “No Running” sign. As the exhausted teachers carried both an unconscious Jack and Hung-Yen back to Saint Columbkille, they saw huge, probing lights coming the school. “Oh no,” Mrs. Foix said. And when they entered, they saw students dancing, running, jumping, hanging, throwing, and any other stupid thing you aren't supposed to do in school. “That is it, I have had enough!” Mrs. Foix raged. And for the first time in history, all the students in a school were in detention, except Laurence, who was still crying in the

I raced out of the library, the noise sounded like it was only a few corners away, when I examined that there was no immediate danger and no one screaming fire, my heart settled down a bit, that is until I say the clock in the hall…

I ran through the halls hoping to see my class number, each time, looking at the numbers and realizing that my class was nowhere in sight. Seconds

I was in class that day focused on the door waiting for someone to come. All of a sudden I heard footsteps outside the classroom, then the door handle turned slowly and the door opened, the teacher poked her head in and called our names,
