Anthony Padilla had no idea that when he woke up this morning his life was going to change forever. He thought it was going to be ordinary, just like any other, simple day in high school. Though when he walked in his first period, a normal, regular day was the furthest thing from his mind. Walking into English class, he noticed a boy in the very back next to his assigned seat. As soon as his eyes landed on the indiviual, the air in his lungs evaporated, leaving him breathless. He was gorgeous. Now before anyone starts to get confused and judgemental, Anthony is bi. He's not dated many guys but he is experienced with it, the best part though is all his friends and family know and are ok with it. So when he does decide to date a guy, or get interested …show more content…

'What's your name,' he saw written quickly on the paper. "I'm Anthony" he extended his hand out to the shy boy, which Ian took gladly. 'How did you know my name,' Ian wrote giving Anthony a questioning stare. "Oh, the teacher, Mrs. Rola, kinda spies on all the new kids for me." Ian looked over to the English teacher, with huge saucer like eyes, and mouth open just enough to make him look in extreme shock. Seeing the look on the boys face made him chuckle. He knew he was falling for him, but sitting here and talking to him, made his feeling seem all the more real. "Don't worry dude, she just likes to look after her students, she's really kind in that weird family relative way" They both started smiling and laughing at how weird the comment sounded. Before either could say anything else, the class started. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The class seemed to slip by very quickly. He figured out afterwards that he doesn't share any other classes with Ian which was a real downer. What made it worse was that he didn't share lunch with him either, he knew it was probably hard for Ian to get anyones attention, he also knew that Ian would sit all by himself with no one to talk to. Considering he seemed to be Ian's only

    757 Words  | 2 Pages

    The entire class and their “Morries” gathered together in a room at the library. All the students were all very nervous, we had spent almost six months on these projects, and we were about to show them to not only each other, but to the people we spent the last six months writing about. Our teacher told us to pick an excerpt to read from the book. When it was my turn, I chose to read the description that I wrote about who Robert was. I was nervous to read this in front of him, because I was worried he would not like it. While I was reading,I made eye contact with him. He was so focused and he looked as if he was enjoying himself. After I was done reading, I handed him the binder that contained the book. He was so thrilled. I could tell by the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled. I also realized that I was thrilled. Not thrilled that the project was over, but thrilled that I had accomplished what I set out to do.

    A symbol of a pillow represents Mr. Rios due to his tendency to dream. For instance, his fantasies of a “perfect life” (such as Lexi attending Stanford) must be fulfilled.
