Снартея з: Саrlos Tapia and Lavender Karis I walked around during lunch with Carlos. Next was drama, I couldn't wait for the play to be preformed. I bet Carlos was as excited as I was. Carlos smiled at me, and I smiled back. I started to sing: From underneath the trees, we watch the sky Confusing stars for satellites I never dreamed that you’d be mine But here we are, we’re here tonight Singing Amen, I’m alive Singing Amen, I’m alive If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride We’d see the day when nobody died And I’m singing Amen I, I’m alive Amen I, I’m alive And in the air the fireflies Our only light in paradise We’ll show the world they were wrong And teach them all to sing along Singing Amen I’m alive Singing Amen I’m alive If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride We’d see the day when nobody died If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride We’d see the day when nobody died And as we lie beneath the stars We realize how small we are If they could love like you and me Imagine what the world could be If everyone cared and nobody cried If everyone loved and nobody lied If everyone shared and swallowed their pride We’d see the day when nobody died We’d see the day, we’d see the day When nobody died We’d see the day, we’d see the day When nobody died We’d see the day when nobody died. My voice was as sweet as a flower. I knew people couldn't resist.
I listened to Lavender. I smiled at her, "Your voice is like flowers and you are like roses to me." Lavender smiles back at me, "I never intend to let go" I smile, "I don't want you to let go" I walk around with Ari and we talk a bit about school and other subjects. Ari smiled at me. I smiled back. Ari looked into the distance. I looked into the distance.
I looked around, "Lave shouldn't we be getting to class by now ?" Lavender smiled at me and replied, "I guess we should be Carlos. Come on. We can't wait all day." I looked at Lavender, "You sure are right. Maybe we should go find Taha or one of our other classmates." Lavender smiled and said, "Okay let's go" I started walking towards room 14. Lavender followed me. Brett and Taha were already waiting for me and the rest of our classmates before drama starts. Maximillian Castro was there with Nadine and Timothy Ng (I'm renaming Timothy Cortez-underwood). I saw Ben and Robert in the corner with Selina, Danilo, Nagin, Jason and John.
I walked into the teacher lounge wearing a dark blue dress with blue flowers and no sleeves. I looked at Carlos and he smiled at me. I looked around and saw Madison, Collette, Hannah, Serica, Tam, Elena, Peter, Analyse Taylor, Ronnie, and some others. Peter looked at me and I looked back, I wanted to get in a fight but I didn't want Carlos to make me feel like I didn't matter.
I looked off right and saw Gwen, Rebecca, Avalon, Alejandra, Sandya. Then there was a few people I'd forgotten their names. Gwen walked up to me, "Hey Carlos" I smiled at her. I smiled at Gwen as she walked up to me, "You want me to help with make up ?", Gwen asked me. At first I thought, No I don't want to have it on. I'll look like a fool. But then I was like Okay maybe I won't look like a fool I smiled again at Gwen, "Okay" Gwen and I walked into the girls bathroom in the teacher's lounge.
Lavender walked out of the girls bathroom in the teacher's Lounge. Lavender was wearing green eye liner, and more make up, I'd never seen her like this in the entire time I had know Lave. I smiled at her, "you look great Lave." Lavender smiled at me, "Thanks Carlos" I walked into the Mp room To set the sound system Up. Once that was set up I walked into the Teacher's lounge. Lavender was by the round table with soda on it. I walked over to Lav, "Hi Lavender" Lavender looked at me, "Hey Carlos"
I finished getting a Drink then ate some. I went over to the couch and stood behind it, Carlos stood next to me. I smiled and he smiled back. I looked at him, "I'm Scared. I don't know if I'll do well" Carlos nodded, "you'll do fine Lave" I nodded and said, "I'll do my best."
I looked at the door, Just as I was going to tell Lavender something, the drama Teacher, Mrs.Cagliostro, she's nice when she wants to be. I'm Starting to like drama, even though I never knew anything about Lave or any of the students.
I looked at the teacher and she spoke. John spoke a bit too and then I noticed that Lavender wanted to say something. The teacher said something and then Lavender started speaking, "I know this is the first year we've had techies in the class but I've only ever been on stage two in my life. I'd also like to tell you that I myself am a techie, I am good with technology. Though it may not seem like it." Lavender stops speaking, and waits for a response. I looked shocked that she told the class.
I Smiled and the teacher said, "well then i guess the more the better." Carlos looked at Me,"Welcome to the team Lave" I smiled and looked at Carlos, "thanks" I smiled again and then walked into the mp room into backstage but before I did Carlos walked up to me, "Good luck tonight Lave"
I walked over to the sound system And stood near it for the time between now and when I needed to be with the class in the stage. I was nervous and anxious all In one and tried to remember when to get on stage. I looked at Carlos, he looked at me when I got on stage, I seemed to be saying, 'help me.' Carlos nodded at me and smiled, I knew what that meant.
I looked at all the switches on the sound board. I had them all set up. Then I looked at the stage and Lavender came on. John was standing near Lave. I don't remember what part Lave was but I don't really need to remember at the moment. I memorised all my lines and recited them From memory. When it got to the last scene I was in I walked off the stage at the very end. I looked at Lave, "good work" Lavender smiled at me, and I smiled back. Lavender was near me almost the entire time during fairy tale court room Part 1 and part 2. I watch as my classmates preform the play. I wish I chose a part but I really wanted to do something with technology.
I stayed by Carlos the entire time during the second play. Then when the play finished, Carlos and I walked up onto the stage, we were standing right next to each other. I looked over at Gwen, she stood next to me and Rebecca. The 8th graders all stood next to each other. Sometimes I think it would be a disaster if they weren't around. Timothy Stood next to Me and Gwen. Nadine and Max next to Timothy and Robert next to Max. Everyone was near some of their friends, but I realised that my friends had ditched me a while back.
When my name was called I walked forward and the teacher gave me some flowers, then Lavender followed me after words. Then when everyone had relieved flowers we went back to the teacher's lounge to clean up. Once that was done I said good bye to Lavender and the rest if the class. ______________________________ End of chapter 4
I walked to Lunch the next day and I saw Carlos in our regular spot under the tree in the quad near the black gate. He was waiting for me. I walked over and he smiled, "Hey Lave." I Ike's at Carlos, "Hi Carlos" I sat down on the grass and put my grey backpack near the benches. I walked a bit to the gym with Lavender. She smiled and I started to sing to her, a few of my friends chimed in to help: <Carlos> I've got a lot of things I have to do All these distractions Our future's coming soon <Carlos Lavender> We're being pulled A hundred different directions But whatever happens I know I've got you <Carlos Lavender> You're on my mind You're in my heart It doesn't matter where we are We'll be alright Even if we're miles apart <Carlos Lavender> All I wanna do Is be with you Be with you <Carlos and Lavender> There's nothing we can't do Just wanna be with you Only you <Carlos and Lavender> No matter where life takes us Nothing can break us apart You know it's true <Carlos and Lavender> I just wanna be with you <Carlos> You know how life can be It changes overnight <Carlos and Lavender> It's sunny then raining But it's all right <Lavender> A friend like you <Carlos> Always makes it easy <Carlos and Lavender> I know that you get me <Lavender> Every time <Carlos and Lavender> Through every up Through every down You know I'll always be around Through anything You can count on me <Carlos and Lavender> All I wanna do Is be with you Be with you <Carlos and Lavender> There's nothing we can't do Just wanna be with you Only you <Carlos and Lavender> No matter where life takes us Nothing can break us apart You know it's true <Carlos and Lavender> I just wanna be with you I just wanna be with you
I smiled at Carlos and he smiled back. I looked at Carlos, "that was fun. Let's go to drama before we are late again." Carlos nodded and smiled. I started walking towards room 14 with Carlos by my side. I walked towards room 14 with Lave, not speaking to her at all. She smiled at me and I smiled back. Lavender found a spot for us both near the front door. I sat down next to Lavender. My friends sat in a group close to me and Lavender.
