True to his word, Alden did indeed call Sharon that night. She was dressed in her sky blue plaid shorts and matching solid blue tank top pajama set, getting ready for bed. She had just unpacked those pajamas. She was going to wear them at the cottage, until she and Alden had a slight change in plans regarding bedtime wear.
"I don't really want to go back to school tomorrow." Sharon said with a sigh.
"Me neither." Alden replied. He was in his car getting ready to go out. "But just focus on the bigger picture. This is our senior year! Our last year of high school. And we have big plans after graduation, right?"
"Right." She responded with a smile.
It was true, they did. Alden was gonna go to Julliard with his bandmates, Brock and Carmen, to help advance Mangled Metal's career. At the same time, they were hoping to score a record deal by playing gigs around New York with the help of their band manager, Maria. Maria was planning on going to NYU for their business program and Sharon also wanted to go to NYU for their veterinary program. The possibility of Sharon, Alden, Maria and Brock getting an apartment together had come up. But if that didn't work out, Sharon and Maria could dorm together at NYU while Alden and Brock could be roommates at Julliard. The schools were close enough to each other so that they'd all be able to hang out all the time anyway.
One of Sharon's favorite parts about this plan was that she'd get to see her old high school mentor and one of her best friends, Dion, more often! Dion got into FIT after he graduated high school. He was staying in the dorms during the school year and would come back to Elkford for holidays and breaks. It would be cool if he decided to live in NY too if the rest of them did! Sharon missed being able to see him as much as she did back when they were both in Elkford High. When she was a Freshman and he was her Senior mentor.
And now Sharon was going to be a Senior and have her own student to mentor as of tomorrow. It was hard to believe that much time had passed since she first started high school. She and Alden had definitely come a long way since then. Both in their relationship and as people. Even though she wasn't too excited for summer to be ending and school to be starting, she was convinced this was going to be the best year ever!
The only thing that made her sad about their New York plan is that Connor and Alyson weren't gonna be joining them. They were planning on staying in Canada and attending Banting University. Connor was going for their computer science program and Alyson was going for their medical program so she could achieve her back-up dream of becoming a heart surgeon. It seems her first dream of playing in a rock band wasn't panning out. Sharon knew she would miss them both like crazy and wished they would find schools in NY for their desired majors. But they both had their hearts set on Banting. And they both had the grades to get in too.
Sharon climbed into her bed and pulled the sheets over her with one hand, while still holding the phone up to her ear with the other hand. She laid in bed with her cell phone still attached to her ear. She let out a yawn.
"You sound tired." Alden stated.
Sharon giggled. "I guess I'm still worn out from our trip. There was a lot of "physical activity" involved, after all."
The teenage boy gasped in surprise. "Is this "dirty talk" coming from Sharon Spitz? Since when were you into that?"
"Since I discovered how amazing sex is." She replied while trying to keep her voice low. She didn't want Helen or her little brother, Josh, to overhear her.
He laughed. "It was pretty great, huh?"
"Yeah."
"I'm actually on my way to pick up some protection for us right now. My parents wanted me to quickly stop by the restaurant to lock up anyway. So I should get going. How about I stop by your house tomorrow morning and give you a ride to school?"
"That would be awesome!"
"Great, so I'll see you tomorrow then. Why don't you get some sleep in the meantime?"
"Ok. Good night, Alden. I love you."
"I love you too, babe."
They both ended the call at the same time. Alden slipped his phone back in his pocket and drove off. Sharon plugged her phone into it's charger and drifted off to sleep. She so wished Alden was sleeping next to her right now. But her thoughts about being with him the night before and the conversation they just had were keeping her warm. She couldn't wait to see him in the morning!
Her alarm clock woke her up at exactly 7 AM that morning. She did her usual "getting ready for school routine". She decided to wear a black baby doll tank top, skinny jeans and some black ankle boots with a 2 inch heel. She wanted to look nice for the first day of her senior year. But at the same time, she didn't want to seem like she was trying too hard.
While getting ready, she wondered about who she was going to mentor. She hoped she could have a positive impact on a Freshman's life the way Dion did on hers. She also hoped whoever she mentored wouldn't get bullied the way she did her first week of high school. She remembered Evie all too well. Evie was Dion's worst enemy. She held a serious grudge against him after he rejected her as a model in one of the annual high school fundraising fashion shows. She decided to take their rivalry out on Sharon by tormenting her and marking her forehead with the number 9, which Sharon had to hide with a bandanna until it completely washed off. This was a hazing ritual sometimes done at Elkford High by cruel upperclassmen to "initiate" helpless freshman. There were also other awful initiations she heard about like some kids being forced to push pennies around a toilet seat with their noses or being covered in shaving cream.
A horrific thought occurred to Sharon. Nina Harper is to her what Evie was to Dion. And Nina was mean enough to pull the sort of things Evie did. Now Sharon kind of hoped she wouldn't be matched with anyone. She would hate for some innocent new kid (who was probably already super scared) to suffer because of her. She decided she was gonna go out of her way to be extra nice to all the 9th graders this week. She'd smile and say hi to each one of them she passed in the hall. This would hopefully help them realize not all seniors are mean and would make them feel less scared. She was gonna try to convince Alden and the rest of her Senior friends to do the same.
Speaking of Alden, where was he? He was supposed to pick Sharon up 10 minutes ago. They were gonna be late if he didn't arrive soon. She called his cell to see how far he was. No answer. Hopefully that meant he was driving and on his way. Sharon finished her apple and threw out the core. Helen tried to talk her into sitting down at the breakfast table to have a full meal. But Sharon insisted she didn't have time because Alden was gonna be there any second. Looks like she would've had the time after all. Helen was always so worried about the way Sharon ate. Especially after she'd been through anemia.
Another 10 minutes had passed and still no sign of Alden. She decided to call his house phone to see if he even left yet. Maybe one of his parents or sisters would answer and could tell her what's going on. No answer on the home phone either. Really weird. This wasn't like Alden at all. Could he have overslept?
Suddenly, Sharon heard the doorbell ring. It had to be Alden!
Stay tuned for chapter 4!
