• Chapter 1: The Massacure

    Thump-thump, thump-thump.
    The sound my feet make as the hit the ally's pavement
    Thump-thump, thump-thump.
    The sound my heart makes as its beating faster and faster.
    He's gaining speed.
    He reaches into his pocket
    He pulls out a gun.
    Bang!
    I awake in a cold sweat.
    Thump-thump, thump-thump
    My hearts racing
    I try to calm down,
    I try to think about something happy,
    But I cant.

    Hi, I'm Megan Jensen, but my friends just call me Meg. I'm a 16 year old girl who attends Jane Addams High in Chicago Illinois. I just love to write poetry. I'm about 5'7" tall, and I have light blonde hair that flows thickly to about mid-back. I'm a cheerleader for football, and play girls basketball. Although my hair is blonde, and I am a cheerleader, I have a 4.0 GPA. My Boyfriend is Kaleb Ross, an awsome quarterback player for our football team, the Knights. He has mediam to short dirty bolnd hair. He is a little muscular, and he has a six pack. He is almost 6 feet tall. He is also forward on the school's basketball team, pitcher for the baseball team, and is on the wrestling team.

    March 14, seven years ago, in Mr. Hendrix's second period english,(my favorite class), the biggest "nerd" in our whole school, Alex Jenkinz, brought a gun to school, and when some of the other cheerleaders started making fun of him, he took it out and shot them. He jumped out of his seat and started a masacre. Alex aimed the gun right at me and pulled the trigger. My best friend, Michael Andrews, pushed me out of the way, but he took the bullet, right in the heart. I was forced to watch him fall to the ground helplessly. I rushed over to him, and it seemed like we were the only two people in the room, even though everyone else was running, screaming, and crying, all I could think about was Michael. As I held him in my arms, I gave him something he had alays wanted, a single kiss from me. After I kissed him, he smiled, said "I love you" and died.

    When Mr. Hendrix tried to confiscate the gun from Alex, he failed, and got shot. Someone managed to get out of the classroom and notify the dean, Mr. Smith. He called the
    Police. When the police got there, They managed to get the gun away from Alex, hand cuff him, and take him away.

    After the whole ordeal, the pricipal decided he should give us the week off. Kaleb took me home in his midnight blue Chevy. I cried the whole way home. Since my dad couldn't get off work 'till 7:30, Kaleb stayed with me. We just sat on the couch and watched my favorite comedy, Juno. After it was over, we sat and just talked about things. Like how Michael saved my life, and that it could have been me who was dead, not Michael. I was extreamly thankfull, but I wished it was me, in a way. I missed him so much. I mean we had been friends since pre-k. He had been there when my mom died, when my first boyfriend broke up with me. I always knew I had a sholder to cry on, until now. He was gone, and there was nothing I could ever do to change that. I started crying again, so Kaleb held me in his strong arms, and we stayed like that until my dad got home.

    The next day, I awoke to Kaleb sitting in a chair next to my bed. He told me he arrived about an hour earlier, but didn't want to wake me. He told me I looked to peaceful sleeping and he was tired, so he pulled in a chair, and sat down next to me. All we did that day was stay home except when we went to Hollywood Video to rent some movies. We rented, 27 Dresses, Baby Mama, Punk Love, A Christmas Story, (even though it was only October 1 cool , Hook, Knocked Up, Atonment, Alvan and the Chipmunks, Titanic, Love in the Time of Cholora, Harry Potter: And The Sorcer Stone, Hary Potter: And the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter: And the Prisner Of Askeban, and the rest of the series, Never Been Kissed, Riding In Cars With Boys, and 50 First Dates. The whole day we layed on the couch in eachothers arms, watching the movies, laughing, crying, and kissing.
