What A Sad Day..., chapter 1

Well, to start this tale off, I will tell you my name is Lizzie. I am sixteen, brown hair, green eyes, and very tall for a girl.

I also I have the best friends ever. I will start with Devyen. We met in third grade and were friends ever since. He is also sixteen, has black hair (dyed), brown eyes, almost black, and is kinda short.

Then, there is Trevor. We met in middle school, during science; we got sent to the office, been friends ever since. He just turned sixteen, has orange hair, blue eyes, and is short.

Matthew, I also met him in science, we were lab partners, and we were s'posed to be mixing stuff, we did, but it blew up. As you can guess, we were friends ever since. He is sixteen, has black hair, brown eyes, and is short. We also gave him nicknames: Skippy and Chipmunk.

Then, there is Billie Joe. We met my first year of high school, it was his first year too, since then we were friends. He is sixteen, red-ish brown hair, green eyes, and is almost as tall as me, almost. I also kinda like him...

Can't forget Mike, I met him the same day I met Billie Joe, so along with Devyn, Trevor, and Matthew we were the punk group in the school. Mike has brown-ish hair, blue eyes, is sixteen, and is very tall.

Last year we added the sisters, Joslin and Jennifer. Joslin is sixteen, brown hair, brown eyes, and is short. Jennifer looks like her sister, but she is fifteen.

And this year we added Shaylee and Catie. Shaylee is fifteen, blonde hair, blue eyes, and is short. Catie is fifteen, brown-ish blonde hair, brown eyes, fifteen and short.

We were walking to school when a kid with green hair came out of nowhere.

"Who are you?" Billie asked.

"Cool, Tre Cool. And you are?"

"Lizzie."

"Devyn."

"Trevor."

"Matthew."

"Billie Joe."

"Mike."

"Joslin."

"Jennifer."

"Shaylee."

"Catie."

"Wow, lots of people," Tre said.

"Only ten..." Catie said, counting.

"Okay, well where ya goin'?" Tre asked.

"To school..." Billie Joe muttered, as we walked on.

"Ok, well I will follow," Tre said, while...following us.

When we got to school, there was the two girls that always have to ask Billie Joe to go out.

"Hey, Billie do you want to do somethin' this weekend, just you and me?" asked the one on the right, Veronica.

"No, not really..." Billie Joe said.

"Why? It's not like you have a girlfriend," said the one on the left, Erika.

"Well, I do." Billie Joe grabbed me. "Ladies, meet my girlfriend, Lizzie," Billie Joe said.

"You are going out WITH THAT?" Veronica hissed.

"Yes..."

"EWWWWWW!" they both yelled.

"How can you go out with that?" Erika said. "It is disgusting."

"Well, you can say what you want, but I love her and nothing can come between us," Billie Joe said, kissing my cheek.

"Whatever." They walked off.

We walked into the building, went to our lockers, and went to our classes. Billie and I had the first three periods together, without any of them. Tre also just started going here; Catie offered to show him around.

Billie and I went to class. We started passing a note.

Billie: 'You know what I said out there to those girls?'

Me: 'Yeah..."

Billie: 'Well, I meant every word..."

Me: 'You did, really, you did?'

Billie: 'Yeah, I have liked you for a long time."

Me: 'I have liked you too..."

Billie: 'Would you like to be my girlfriend?'

Me: 'Yes.'

We finally had our lunch break, which meant school was over for us, it was Friday.
When we got to our meeting spot, everyone was already there.

"Why ya guys holdin' hands?" Tre asked. If you haven't noticed yet, I guess you could say he was part of our group now.

"Because we can," Billie said.

And as the day went on, we wouldn't realize how much we really needed each other until, the year after that...
