I ran out of my little cardboard box in the alley. It was a hot summer day but I breathed it in. Then I remembered. CJ. Being told I was guilty for a crime I didn't commit. I ran and pulled the uniform on. I was way to small for it. I ran a hand through my curly hair. I grabbed my make shift bag over my shoulder and ran to the bus. I sat next to Piper. She tried stealing from me once. Once. Then we became good friends.  Her smile made me smile and her hair gleamed in the buses make shift windows. And before you say it, hades no. I don't have a crush on Piper. She's just my best friend and I'm lonely. The bus lurched to a stop. We were here. CJ. We were herded out of the bus onto the sidewalk. We walked past a fence to the school. As I was walking, I felt someone staring at me. I brushed it off. Might as well have been a guard for all I care. We were pushed into cramped seats and a fat man in a Hawaiian shirt and lepeord printed shorts. "My name is Mr. D and I am your headmaster. Bow down. "  we became rebellious and didn't. I laughed. I pulled up and tossed out and sat on a sidewalk, waiting.
