A Mile In Your Shoes Part I

Usually, my life is a recurring pattern, but then there's the part in my life before I died. That part was something you don't usually forget. It just so happened my story ended up like this.
I trudged down the hall just like every other day. And also just like every other day, no one bothered staring at me anymore because they were used to my goth gear.
Every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday I stayed after school for a book club.
My footsteps thudded down the nearly empty hall as almost all the students and teachers left the school to get out of the doom and gloom Monday atmosphere. How could I blame them?
At least I get to see Jake, I thought. Jake is my all time crush.
Oh, by the way my name is Hazel.
I turned into room 213 and spotted Jake sitting in his usual seat. I put my stuff down and tried to get comfy in my desk.
Jake has light brown hair, he's really tall, and he isn't exactly skinny but he's not fat either. Jake looked up at me (OMG!!!!!) and smiled a dazzling smile that kicked my heart into overdrive. Not knowing what to do, I just smiled, looked down, and blushed. "Saved you a seat," Jake said in a voice that sounded like melting honey. Quickly, I picked up my books and scurried over to the empty seat next to Jake and said, "Thanks."
We couldn't say much more after that because just then my two Gothic best friends Luna and Katana said, "All right everyone pick up your books."
