Chapter 2- Imposters?
Kristen took a good look at Peter when we were in the 음악 room 다음 period. He and Anna were in our 음악 class as well.
“He seriously does,” Kristen said. Even though she had never read the book series, she had to deal with me talking about the series all the time, so she knew what the characters looked like.
“What about that girl, Anna, he hangs out with? Doesn’t she look like the character Sabrina? They act like the characters too,” I said, “maybe a little too much. Do 당신 think they could actually be the people?”
“Nah, it can’t be,” Kristen disagreed.
“You’re right,” I admitted. “Wouldn’t it be really weird if it was them?”
“Yeah!” Kristen answered.
Then the 음악 teacher, Ms. Lloyd, came up to us. She was pretty young, most likely in her mid-twenties. She had light red hair and a bubbly personality for most of the time. She reminded me of the actress Amy Adams.
“Are 당신 girls ready?” she asked us.
Linda, Kristen and I exchanged looks.
“Yeah,” I said.
In 음악 class, we had to read a story we made up to the class while we play a song in the CD player. The story is about an epic journey.
When we got up to the front of the class, Ms. Lloyd put in the CD. It was quiet for a long time. Somebody couldn’t take the silence and decided to break it 의해 farting. We all broke out in laughter. I was laughing so hard that my eyes grew watery. I looked around the classroom to see who did it. Peter was rolling on the floor in 더 많이 hysterics than anybody else was. People around him pinched their noses. Anna was yelling at Peter with her nose plugged too.
“Not appropriate at all for class!” Ms. Lloyd yelled. “You!”— She pointed at Peter— “Enough!”
Peter got back up on his chair. His face was still red from excitement.
“Sorry. I just had to have a little fun,” He said, grinning.
“Well, your fun is going to get 당신 down to the office on your first 일 too,” Ms. Lloyd told him.
“Sorry,” he said again.
In the end of 5th period math, Anna came up to my desk.
“Hey,” She greeted me.
“Hey!” I greeted her back.
“Can I sit with 당신 at lunch today? I don’t know anybody else,” She asked.
“Sure. I could make some room,” I told her.
“Great. When the 벨 rings can 당신 show me where your 표, 테이블 is?”
“Fine.”
Once the 벨 rang, I showed Anna and Peter to my lunch table. I think the 표, 테이블 I sat at was the best spot 당신 can eat in the lunchroom. Our 표, 테이블 is separated from the clutter of tables, which are in the middle of the cafeteria. We sat right 의해 a window so we got a lot of sunlight. Our 표, 테이블 is also near the door 당신 go in to get your lunch.“Here we are,” I announced as a put my heavy bag down under the table. “You guys can sit on that side of the table.” I pointed to where my friend Allie was sitting.
“Allie, is it okay if they sit 의해 당신 and Victoria?” I asked.
“Yeah, it’s fine,” Allie answered.
Allie has brown eyes and a lighter shade of brown hair. Her skin is not as dark as mine is, but darker than Victoria’s. I would say she had an 올리브 skin tone.
“Hi, Natasha!” I heard a girl calling me.
I turned around to see my friend Meredith. She sits with us every other day. Even though she was in 7th grade, she had 8th grade band so she had to eat lunch with us every other day. She has long blonde hair and hazel eyes.
“Hey!” I said. “New students are sitting with us today.”
“Who are they?” she asked.
“A boy named Peter, and a girl named Anna,” I told her.
That’s when I saw Matt put his backpack under the 표, 테이블 다음 to Kristen’s and mine. I turned to him and told him about the new students sitting with us. He said he didn’t mind, and looked around the table. He saw Victoria, who had just came in, Meredith, Anna, and Peter.
“Whoa! This is the blondie 표, 테이블 now!” He joked.
I laughed and said, “Matt!”
After we all got our lunches, which was 팝콘 chicken, I started to talk.
“Anna, 당신 are in all of my classes so far. Can I see your schedule?” I asked.
Anna reached in her backpack and pulled it out. She handed it to me.
“Oh my gosh!” I exclaimed while 읽기 it. “You are in all of my classes! Even in chorus and blue 일 study hall with Mr. Kellish!”
“That’s cool!” Anna said as I gave her schedule back.
Then I noticed the way Peter ate. It was terrible! I watched him take a small piece of chicken and smash it into a load of ketchup. He inserted the chicken into his mouth and munched sloppily. When he put down his elbow, it landed in his mashed potatoes.
“Ew!” I yelped. “Here, take my napkin!”
I gave one to him. He took my napkin but instead of using it he ripped it into shreds.
“I don’t need a napkin,” He claimed, making a face. “I am happy with my filth.”
I couldn’t believe that he had just said that. I decided to ignore him. I turned to Anna and whispered, “Does he normally eat like this?” “ “Unfortunately, yes,” she answered with a sigh. “It only gets worse.”
“How?” I dared to ask.
“Well, he tends to—”
All of a sudden, we all heard a loud fart.
“ Fart,” Anna finished in a weak tone.
“EW! COME ON! WE ARE EATING HERE!” I yelled. I held my nose.
“That’s gross!” Vicky complained.
“EW!” Kristen shouted.
“Nice one!” Matt commented as he gave Peter a thumbs-up.
“I’m moving!” I declared.
All of my 프렌즈 moved to the other side of the 표, 테이블 besides Matt, leaving giggling Peter behind.
“Oh no!” I yelled. “Save the food! We have to save the food!”
Peter’s giggles turned into full-blown laughter. I ignored him as I grabbed my tray. I went back to the other side of the 표, 테이블 and sat down.
“Anyway, I am making a new fan-fiction,” I announced. “It’s going to be about—”
“Wait,” Anna interrupted. “Fan fiction?”
“Yeah,” I said. “ I make what people call fan fiction and let my 프렌즈 read them. It’s off of my 가장 좋아하는 book series.”
“What’s that?” she asked. Anna started taking a long sip of milk.
“The Sister’s Grimm ,” I answered.
Anna choked on her milk.
“Are 당신 okay?” I asked.
“I’m fine,” Anna said. She dabbed her lips with a napkin and put it down. “Did 당신 say The Sisters Grimm?”
“Yeah. Did 당신 ever read the books?” I asked.
“Not really. I’ve heard of them before,” She told me. “I heard that they are really adventurous. My life is also that way. I sometimes feel like I’m living in it!”
I heard Peter cough from across the table.
“If 당신 want 당신 can read them,” I suggested. “I’m not allowed to take them out of the house, but 당신 can look for them in 도서관, 라이브러리 또는 buy them at borders. Do 당신 know they are making a movie?”
“SERIOUSLY?!” Anna and Peter yelled in unison.
“I’m serious!” I exclaimed. “It’s coming out in 2010. Well, the first one is anyway. It’s going to be a trilogy movie.”
“Cool!” Anna yelled. Somehow her enthusiasm seemed fake to me. “Anyway, I want to ask 당신 something.” She lowered her voice. “Have 당신 seen anything suspicious around here 또는 anything crazy that 당신 can’t explain?”
I thought for a second. I said, “No, I don’t think so. I’ll tell 당신 if I do.”
The way Anna and Peter were 연기 made me feel weird. Is it really possible that they are actually Sabrina and Puck from the books? That was impossible. My imagination was known to be pretty wild, so I let that crazy theory slip.
I took a long sip of my 초콜릿 우유 in deep thought.
