"Okay class, your assignments have been graded and will be passed back shortly" Said Ms. Adams. Jayden was an average teen, but was significantly smaller then the other boys. Even some girls surpassed his height. But what he lacked in height, he made up for in intelligence. He has an "A" in every class (except gym, of course) and it was even rumored that he would skip a grade. He didn't want to leave his friends, so he thought, "I'll just turn them down, I mean I'd be lonely if I skipped to 9th grade." But today would change his life...
Marissa is just as old as Jayden. They even have a few classes together. She won't admit it if you ask her, but you could tell she liked Jayden. He never noticed it, though. Today was the day she'd confess, but was to afraid to ask in science class. Lunch was in an hour, and she was determined to say then...
"You guys know I'll never leave you!" said Jayden.
"Really Jay?" Asked George, one of Jay's best friends.
"Really."
"He's lying..." said Jen, the tomboy of the group.
"I won't , or can't, leave you guys! You're my friends, and what will I do at the highschool? I'm not going."
"Say what you will, but we know what will happen..."
What felt like an eternity, Marisa noticed that lunch was in two minutes. What she didn't know was that something would come up that would push her deadline back a bit...
Suddenly, the alarms started blaring.
BEEP BEEP BEEP, BEEP BEEP BEEP! The whole school was evacuated because a fire had started in the teacher's lounge. Now what was she going to do?
