LUNCH TIME 

As I was walking out of my fourth period class, Science, I heard a girl calling my name. I turned around and saw that it was Rachel running down the hall towards me. I smiled as she stopped in front of me.

"Hey, do you want to sit with us at our table at lunch?"

"Um, sure. If you guys don't mind." Instead of answering, she smiled, grabbed my hand and dragged me back to the group. Everyone greeted me, except for Jake and Marley, who were making out. I rolled my eyes. I followed the group the the cafeteria and we got our food. We sat down at one of the tables and I some how ended up between Puck and Ryder, and Sam was across from me. We were in the middle of eating and everyone was talking. So, I decided to take out my phone and ear buds and listen to music. I found a song and pressed play. It's Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker. I was already done with my lunch so I took out my song book, which was in my bag, and a pencil.I started writing, and the words just flowed out onto the paper.

But Since You Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time

I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get (I get) what I want

Since You Been Gone

You had your chance you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again
Since You Been Gone

I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on

Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get, I get what I want
I can breathe for the first time

I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah

Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know)
That I get, I get what I want

Since You Been Gone

I felt eyes on me and saw that Sam was watching me. I smiled at him.

"So, what song were you listening to?" He asked. That brought everyone's attention to me.

"Uh, Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker." I answered.

"So, your a country hick?" Puck asked. I glared at him. "Yep, she is definitely Coach Jackson's sister." He said.

"Who is my sister?" A voice asked. We turned and saw my brother standing at the front of the table. "Oh,Brenda's here now. Sam, Puck, Finn, Jake, Ryder, I need the five of you to meet me in your 7th period class."

I ignored him the whole time and listened to music. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned, expecting Puck to be the one who tapped me. It was my brother.

"What?"

"How you been?"

"Like you even care." I said. I gathered my things and got up. I walked around the halls until I heard someone calling me. It was Sam.

"Hey, you alright?" He asked. Awe! He's worried about me! No...He's probably like Jordan. I smiled any way.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"Okay, I-We were worried. Especially your brother."

"He probably doesn't even care. He has never done anything for me, except be an annoying asshole." I said, glaring. I wasn't glaring at Sam, just the wall.

"Yes he does. He's your brother."

"Well, he said he didn't give a fuck about me when I was 13. Then, he moved out when I was 14 and I haven't seen him since, until today. He's 21, I'm 16. I don't hate him, but I only love him because he's my brother."

"Oh. I'm sorry." He said.

"Yeah. You see this scar on my forehead?" I asked and lifted up my side bangs. There was an inch long scar.

"Yeah, how did you get that?"

"He was digging a hole, why, I don't know. But he knew I was outside with him, so he hit me in the head with the shovel, and acted like it was an accident." Sam winced as he thought about that.

"You're still pretty with the scar."I blushed. He was blushing too.

"Um, thanks." I said. He smiled.

"So, what do you have next?" He asked. I looked at my schedule.

"Free period."

"Cool! So do the others. You should come check out the Glee club." I was confused.

"What's Glee?" I asked. He stared at me as if I had grown a second head. Just then, the bell rang.

"Well, follow me and I'll show you." He took my hand and pulled me towards a room.
