Stand Up For Me
Normal, I Think Not
I rush downstairs to grab my backpack. It's my first day at a new school.I can't screw this up. My brother puts his hand on my shoulder, so I can see him. He signs for me to have an excellent day, and I'm out the door.
As I get out of my car, my backpack falls. I start to pick it up when a random mysterious guy comes over. He bends down to pick it up for me. He starts to talk, but he's not facing me.
"Excuse me, but if you want to get your point across then please, face me." I say. My brother says that for a deaf girl, I speak pretty fluently.
"Why, are you stupid or something?" He says.
"Well let's just put it this way, I'm not stupid, but I'm not perfect." I say. I only have one friend, but Louis doesn't go here yet. Louis won't go here until next week. The bell rings, apparently. I head off to my first class. When I get there, I sit in the front to read his lips better. A random blond guy sits next to me. He's really cute, but he seems like he's one of the guys that will hurt you in someway. Like a heartbreaker.
"We have a new student today. Her name is Delilah Rondelay. And- Oh my gosh," I see the teacher say. Then she turns to me."You poor thing. Would you please come up here, and tell the class a few things about you?"
"No thank you." I say. Class finishes sooner then I thought. I go to leave, but I get turned around by someone. It's the blond boy.
"Hey, so Maybe we could go out sometime?" He asks.
"Yeah, sure." I say.
"So can I have your number?"
"Sure." I pull out a pen and a note card. I write it down and give it to him.
"So -" He looks down.
"What was that?"
"So I-" He looks down again.
"Sorry, but this time without looking at the ground?"
"Why can't I look at the ground? Are you deaf or something?"
"You're a jerk, and by the way you guessed correct." I say before I run off to the restrooms. Well that hurt. Tears come streaming down my face like a waterfall. My backpack vibrates twice. I take out my phone as it vibrates again. Three messages.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know. I didn't mean it. Please come back." Is the text I get from an unknown number.
"By the way I'm Niall Horan." I get from the same unknown number.
"Hows your day?" Is the text I get from Louis.
-After School-
"Hey there." I say walking into the door.
"Louis called about a billion times. When are you guys going to start dating?" Trever signs for Chelsey.
"He's a friend. how many times do I have to tell you that?" I smile towards her as I say it, "Oh, and he's a friend that's coming over."
"That's him." Trever signs. I turn and open the door. I invite Louis in, and we go straight up to my room.
"So you texted me about this Niall guy?" Louis signs.
"Yeah, after I asked him to look at me when he talked, he asked me 'what are you deaf or something'" I sign back.
"Well screw him. Let's do something tonight, like have a movie marathon."
"Okay, I'm in."
