“Okay class, today we’re going to continue our lesson from yesterday; finding the area of a triangle!”

That was my teacher, Ms. Allard talking. I was in 5th period math, at Hibiscus Middle School. Everything’s the same here; same old and same school routine everyday. The teacher tells you what you’re going to learn, you take notes, then you do the actual work. I was taking notes like always, and passing notes around with Allyson. Allyson Glen is my best friend; we’ve known each other since kindergarten. She has a nice wavy hair mix of dark chocolate and light brown together, her eyes have the color of a sharp dark brown combination, and she’s about the same height as me. We're both 12. Both seventh graders.

I looked over at Alys and saw that her face was as red as a tomato. It’s very noticeable when she’s blushing. I looked back at the note and looked back up at her; I gave her a facial expression to show that I’d answer the note later. As best friends, we give each other signals and signs to communicate. She answered back with a thumbs up.

Allyson started blushing. ‘Hey’ was all she said back. I waved in reply.

“So, how was it being the center of attention in math class today?” he asked while smirking.

“Um, let’s just say it was really awkward and embarrassing..hehe..” Oh, did I forget to mention that Chris is also in our math class? Well, he is.

“Get me carrots! You know how much I love em’! ;)” Chris said energetically.

“Hmm..just get me a salad as usual; can't eat anything with meat remember?” Valerie reminded.

“Got it! Be back in 5!” I headed off to the lunch line and got myself a cup of water and a chicken sandwich, then went to the vegetarian area.While waiting in line, I looked over at the table to see if Val and Chris were still there. Good, they are. Focusing on the line, I saw a familiar face...it was Meghan Carter. Ugh, Valerie’s archenemy. What a coincidence; as I was thinking about her, she randomly turned around and gave me a quirky look. “Oh hi Alys! I didn't know you go to Mama’s Vegetarian Cafe!”

“Not trying to be mean and all, but only my friends and family can call me ‘Alys’; and I don't go to this place for lunch. I'm only here for Valerie and Chris!”

“But aren't I your friend? We've been friends since 5th grade.” She started to sound irritated.

“Uh, okay. I guess you could say that; look, it's my turn to order. I guess I'll see you in choir!” I quickly left before she could say anything back. I walked back to the table after I payed; while walking back, I overheard Val and Chris talking. I hid behind a table so they didn’t hear me
