what should happen next in my book?
ok im writing a story and have major writers block. here’s what i got so far:
It was regular day. The snow had finally melted and it was warm. The lunch attendant, Mrs. Wentz, had let us eat outside that day. I had my lunch, a hamburger and sour cream and onion chips, and was looking for a place to sit in the grass. Then I saw him. He was sitting down and the sun shined down on his blonde hair. I stared at him, amazed. I would have noticed him before, so he must have been the new student, Eric Remzy.
“Bailey….Bailey….Bailey!!” my best friend Jena, who was standing next to me, yelled.
“What?”
“What are you staring at?” she asked. I gestured towards Eric and her jaw just about dropped.
“Who’s the hot guy all alone?”
“Must be the new guy, Eric.” I said. Then, as if he heard me, he glanced our way. I dropped my gaze to my feet shyly. I had never really been the girl that guys noticed. I was about 5’4 (kinda short) and had dark brown hair, almost black.
“Is he still staring?” I asked quietly.
“No, he went back to his lunch, you can look now.” I glanced up to make sure she wasn’t lying, which she did frequently. She wasn’t. Jena was prettier than me. She had straight black hair and always wore red lipstick, which I found useless. I only wore mascara. She had emerald green eyes while I had boring grayish blue. I tried to find an empty spot again.
“There’s one” I said, pointing to an empty spot by some oak trees.
“Perfect, and right by Mr. Hottie” Jena said happily.
As we walked towards the large oak trees, the new guy looked at me again, and again I looked at my feet. And because I was looking at my feet I ran right into this really snobby girl named Jaycce Reynolds. I fell to the ground and my lunch fell all over me. Hamburger juice and chips were in my hair and mayonnaise was all over my red shirt.
“Bailey! Are you ok?” Asked Jena
“Besides the fact that I’m all gross now? Yeah I’m ok” I got up and threw away the remainders of my lunch. Then Eric came up to me. I blushed and almost stared at my shoes again, but if I did he would probably I was dumb.
“Hey, I saw you fall over there. Are you ok?” he asked.
“Yeah I’m fine” I mumbled
“I’m Eric” he said, holding out his hand.
“I’m Bailey.” I said, shaking it.
“Nice meeting you” said Eric. Then he walked off to his next class. I went to the front office and told the receptionist, Mrs. Cult, that I was going home early because I wasn’t feeling good, when really I just wanted to take a hot shower.
“Ok, get better soon sweetie” Said Mrs. Cult.
I walked home because it was a short way. I lived in the small town of Gilchrist, Oregon.
Gilchrist was by La Pine, which is by Bend, which I guess is by Eugene. It’s a very small town. It has a school, home of the Gilchrist Grizzlies, a small store, a video store, a bank, restaurant, and some houses.
I got home a few minutes later and took a nice long shower to get the meat juice out of my hair. When I got out of the shower I put on some clothes and got something to eat out of the kitchen because my lunch spilt everywhere. As I ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich I heard my dad come through the front door.
“Who’s there?” he called out.
“Just a thief steeling your peanut butter and jelly!” I called back sarcastically. My dad came into the kitchen and looked at my sandwich.
“Will you make me one of those? I’m beat.” He said, sitting down at the table.
“Sure” I replied, getting the peanut butter out of the pantry. I’m an only child and live with my dad. Well he’s not really my dad because I was adopted. I’m not sure who my real parents were. I never really wondered because Josh (the dad I live with) is really cool.
“Thanks sweetie” he said as I gave him a sandwich.
“Your welcome” I said, then I went into my room to do homework. I couldn’t concentrate though because I kept thinking about Eric. How his blonde hair shone in the sun, how his turquoise eyes sparkled as he talked to me. I shut my science book and went and lay down on my bed. I sunk into its soft comforter and curled up in a nice ball. I quickly fell asleep.
I woke up the next day to an annoying buzzing sound. A few seconds later I realized it was my alarm clock. I looked at the time. 6:30am.
“Ugh” I groaned. Then rolled out of bed and took a shower. After that I ate some cheerios for breakfast. I brushed my hair and teeth and blow-dried my hair. Then I but on my backpack and went to go catch the bus. But I had woken up late and got to the bus stop right as the bus pulled away.
“WAIT!” I yelled, but the bus drove away. I usually drove my red BMW but it was getting its headlight fixed after a nasty accident involving a telephone pole. So I stood there, freezing cold, wondering how I was going to get to school, when a blue Chevy truck pulls up next to me. The window rolled down showing the driver.
“Need a lift?” asked Eric, smiling.
“Yeah, I missed the bus.”
“Ho
