"A day after a day is a day before a day following a day after a day." Mr. Olonso paced before the large class, a book held up to his nose as he strode. Jojo fiddled with his pen, trying to get the ink to flow again. "Why even Bother Joji?" Jojo looked to his right at Enezel, who was slumped back into his seat, one leg out across the aisle and resting on the support rail of Jojo's desk and the other tapping steadily on the floor. He brushed aside the bright pink bangs that covered his shadowed eyes and licked his lips, waiting for a response. "He...told us to take notes..." "right, of course." Enezel moved his legs and leaned towards Jojo, "what you doing after school?" Jojo looked suprised, "ah, n..nothing, I dont have anything to do." "wanna come over?" "ah...s..sure!" "AHEM" Enezel and Jojo looked over to Mr. Olonso, who was leaning back on the markerboard, "so glad you could re-join us." "No Problem, go on." Enezel crossed his arms and sat back in his seat, giving a wide smile to Mr. Olonso, "your Sarcasm hurts me deeply Mr. Garner." he continued on in his lesson and ignored Enezel's continued whispering to an emberassed Jojo.
The group was clustered in the usual spot, in the shade behind the R'lyeh gymnasium, and were in hot debate about the school's upcoming writing contest. "Its stupid, I mean, our school is named after one of the wierdest, most famous gothic writers ever and yet the only categories are, 'Sports and student life' total bull man!" Scyla was shouting up a storm, the others simply nodding in agreement to appease her. Enezel walked up, closely followed by Jojo, and gave the usual nod to everyone gathered. "What now Sky?" "this damn school, they decide to just ignore the name on the FREAKING WALLS!" "Just let it alone, its nothing." Jojo rubed at his arm, "I wanted to join..." Scyla gave him a look with her only eye that wasny covered by hair, "Join then, sell out, give up, the B$#^#@%# might even pat you on the head!" Jojo looked down at his toes, "N...nevermind." Enezel put a hand on Jojo's shoulder re-assuringly, "Go ahead and do it Joji, do it just to piss her off hah." "I...Guess." "Eni, you care about nill, why do you care now!?" "Joji needs some encouragement, let him learn the hard way." Jojo changed the subject and looked at Carlos, the only one in the group who was in athletics, "What do you think C, should I go for it?" Carlos looked up from a brochure he had in his lap, "I only joined once, diddnt make it." Everyone laughed, Jojo rubbing at his arm nervously again, "Maybey I shouldnt...." Enezel gave him a playful shove, "Do it Joji, come on, show some spirit." Jojo looked up at Enezel's wide smile and blushed, "s...shure, I'll do it." Scyla sat down against the wall, "Well, here we go, another shattered dream to add to our wall, you know I wanted to be a dancer?" "shut up Sky, you wanted to be a laker girl." "same thing.....Just different costumes." Jojo sat down near Enezel, who had gotten into another conversation with some odd husky who had joined the group the other week, his name started with an E, Jojo couldnt remember. He looked through a notebook at his sketches and stopped at one in paticular, blushing vividly again and sighing deeply. Enezel turned, "Whats that Joji?" "N...Nothing!" he shut the book and grinned nervously, Enezel shrugging and going back to his chat. Jojo squinted and looked over at the statue of the school's patron saint, Lovecraft standing tall yet a bit rigid in bronze. "At least I have something to look forward to at the end of today."
