Rain.

Nothing ever really happens in mobile, Alabama. you know, besides rain. I didn't chose to be there though, it just happened. Like how people say "things always happen for a reason". im still trying to find out why. Guess i finally figured it out.
The schools here we're same, nothing really changed, between the cliches and the little groups scattered around. I didn't belong to much of any of them, i only had one friend, i guess that made up my little group then. The teacher's here we're nice and so i always ended up helping them. Oh crap im getting way ahead of myself...My names Ethan Cora, and im sixteen and a junior in high school in mobile, Alabama in Devon's School for the Intelligently Gifted. But for short the only school there for gifted children.
I didn't always live in Alabama, i used to live in Canada, it was a pretty far jump but we moved to america and soon after to where i call home. I lived with my sister most of the time we we're in Alabama, for reason's that shouldn't be specified right now. Everyone in this damp town was as interesting as a rock, either that or im not giving the time to actually talk to them.
But that all changed one day........

"Student's, we have a new student among us today" why the teacher's use such a proper word structure to us i hardly know. But before i knew it a girl with green eye's walked through the door with medium hair with blonde streak's. I couldn't tell if my heart skipped a beat or i was being sentimental, either way i couldn't look away. She stood among the class and i noticed i was staring, suddenly looking away then back again. She started telling about her past and happiness of being here at such a "wonderful school" which i couldn't hear due to the rain and my 'almost touching the window' seat, not like i was entirely listening of course, only staring at her eye's and blushing when they casually glanced at me.
she soon took her seat which was near the back. before i could even react to anything a note was tossed on my desk
"Isn't she hot or what?" - Joshua , who may i add, was my only 'close' friend. and the school's perv.
The whole day passed and she always caught my eye, i felt like creep always looking back at her. she as petite and a bit thicker, but not enough to call chubby, and she walked around with a energetic boost to her actions. something you see rarely here at mobile. Once classes we're over, i decided to talk to her, like a friendly greeting sort of thing.
That didn't go as planned,
but rather, her groupies had something else in mind, stalking her after classes, so instead, i walked out and dealt with it, completely ignoring my friend to hide my failure.
Hour's passed as i sat on the grassy hill in my black school uniform, i only stared at the clouds which soon became a dark sky and glistening star's
"If only i asked what her name was, or if i listened." i was talking to myself the only thing that kept me (or pushed me to) from insanity in this quiet town. As i stared i heard foot-steps coming from the side, i had thoughts in my head that it was joshua, but they we're more careful and slow step's, as i looked over i saw the green eye's i stared at with inner concentration.
"Hi"
