The Luna Sings novel Chapter 2

Teagan and I went to lunch after putting our books in our lockers. We always sat alone, at the other end of a long empty table.

"Are we doing karaoke this Wednesday?" she asks. "I don't know, what do you think,?'' "Well we don't have anything else to do, and you have to please your fans," "We, both have fans," "I guess, but we, have to do a duet,"

 "What are we talking about girls,?" asks 'Big Ben' as he leans over the table. "Just making plans with my bestfriend" I say. And guess what... ? Yep, Teagan starts laughing and even snorts. Her laughter must be contagious, because Ben starts laughing too.

"Are you laughing, because, she's laughing or at the way she's laughing?" I ask, squinting my eyes at him. Which only makes him laugh harder. I shake my head, when I realize that I'm smiling too.

As their laughter calms, Raegan walks over and sits with us. I look around to see if anyone notices. These guys are throwing off the balance. (They are the cool kids) The future leaders of the pack and they are sitting with us, the giggly, cute, bubbly, red head and the sarcastic tomboy.  I think to myself. It's also weird, because, apparently everything that I say is funny to them.

"What's going on?" I ask, as I look from Raegan to Ben. "What do you mean,?" asks Raegen. "Well you left Alpha Jr., to sit with us," (He wasn't the Alpha yet, so I, gave him a nickname) Mostly out of frustration, since I can't talk to my bestfriend in peace.

Ben's roaring laughter, echoes through the cafeteria. "I never knew you were so funny!" he laughs. "Alpha Jr.!" he says, repeating me. "He'll be, fine" adds Raegan. "But we can leave, if we're disturbing you," I look at Teagan and she smiles.

"You're fine'' I say trying not to sound too annoyed, even though, I was. "Good!" says Big Ben. "We like you guys," "Lucky us" I say sarcastically, earning another chuckle from Teagan and the guys. 

We change for gym and wait to hear what coach Crank wants us to do. "Five laps running, jogging, walking, or, crawling!" "It doesn't matter, just get around there!" "Then pair up and do the exercises in the pictures on the wall!"

I do my five laps, then I walk around with Teagan for her last three. "Come on, partner" I say as we finish her last lap.

"Hey, do you want to change partners,?" asks Ben, as he motions from Raegan to Teagan. "Nope, we're fine," "Besides, you'll squash her," Teagan giggles and Big Ben's face turns red with embarrassment.

A face I never thought I'd see on him. I think even Raegan is surprised, because, he's laughing too. Out of nowhere, I hear another laugh and I feel a hand on my shoulder. Zair is leaning on me, so that, he doesn't fall from laughing so hard. (Maybe I should quit karaoke and do comedy) I think to myself.

"I was coming to confront you for stealing my friends," says Zair as he catches his breath. "I guess you're funnier than me," "I don't find myself, funny" "Teagan is the only person, that has, ever found me funny and now your friends,"
