Part 20

During the rest of year 7 i had troubles with the girl that picked on me. Eventually she gave up when i pushed her down the laundry shoot and left her there for 3 days before the day that the laundry was collected. She kinda decided that i wasnt worth it... as she put it.

I met up with a boy named Alex from the all boys school. He seemed really nice, took me to the movies and to a picnic. Though that changed when he tried to get me to sleep with him when were were by the lake. Of course he tried to spread rumors about me so i counter attacked with the fact that he had a very small set of instruments. I never heard from hin again and everyone lust left it alone. I spent the rest of my time at the boardning school pretty muchly by myself. I went on a few dates but nothing really happened. Every time i was out with someone my mind kept shifting to Paul. Though i wondered if he was doing the same thing. His letters were always brief and didnt really tell me much about what he had been doing.

I couldnt wait to get home, and with only a week to go, i was so giddy. I hadnt seen Paul in nearly 4 years. I was 17, he'd be 18 and our lives had been increadibly different.

My return was indeed going to be interesting.
