Breaking Rules in Lineham High School » Places

         Sonny smiled and thanked Jessie for holding the door open. She stopped for a minute and looked at all the desks. "I wonder if we'll have assigned seats in this class. I didn't in my last class. It'd be nice to sit next to each other." Sonny looked at the clock. Class was going to begin in about 5 minutes. She saw two right in the middle. "We could sit in those desks. Or if you'd prefer not to be surrounded by a bunch of random people, I think I see another two in the very back." Sonny paused for a second and thought about what she was saying. "Unless you uh, already have someone you'd prefer to sit next to. I'm sorry for just assuming that you would want to sit next.. to me." Sonny looked unhappy for a moment at the thought of being left alone for another class period. Well, at least it's science - a class I actually like. She cast a quick look at Jessie's face. She seems so sad and fragile... Well, maybe fragile isn't the right word. Insecure. I wish she would smile more. She really is a lot prettier when she smiles. Sonny looked at Jessie closely. "Are you feeling okay? You seem down for some reason. Cheer up! It's the first day of school! I mean, I know a lot of people don't tend to like school, but anything can be fun if you decide to have a good attitude about it."
