It feels like time freezes or it's all in slow motion and the main focus is on her everything else doesn't matter it's just her and her laugh echoing in my head I feel like I could listen to it forever ,hell I wish I could.

“You ok there stranger”

She says sending me back to earth

“I'm fine I just “

“It's cool I'm just playing around”

Her saying that relaxes me

“I'm Charlie”

She adds while extending her hand for me to shake

“I'm. Jade”

I stammered while reaching for her hand to shake, in that moment it felt like an angel was here to lift me out of hell .

Our hands meet,god it's been forever since I've shaken someone's hand last time I shook someone's hand was at my weird uncles wedding .

It felt like are hands shook for hours but in real time it was probably a hot second. I think I'm crazy for thinking this girl I just met is an angel sent to rescue me from this hell hole of a little town.

“So what grade you in?”

She questioned

“Oh I'm a freshman”

I answered a bit less nervous

“Dude same, how long have you been going here”

I thought for a moment

“My whole life basically”

“What's it like here”

She questioned with her big green eyes staring intensely at me, I could feel my face turning red.
