Chris was excited, today was the day he was going to meet a mysterious girl who he had met online in a teen chat room. She lived in Puerto Rico when he first started talking to her. She spoke Spanish, a language he was trying to learn so he could speak fluently with some of his family. Jazlene was her name, he loved the way it sounded especially when you put a Spanish accent on it, he had his cousin Jade say it, since she tended to have her accent on certain words including Spanish names. So now he knew how to say it like they would in Puerto Rico or Spain, where ever they happened to be.

Go figure, that when she moved to the United States, that she ended up in the same town he was thinking about moving to as well as attending the same school he was going to attend. Life was interesting sometimes with the way fate twisted its way through it. They were going to meet for the very first time and truth be told he was nervous, yet excited at the same time. She had been a great online friend, and he couldn’t wait to see how she was in real life. Chris had sent Jazlene a picture of him when they had agreed to meet at the schools courtyard. Sure it was summer but there were still kids at the school hanging out, or making up their credits in summer school. Either way the school wasn’t empty nor off limits and since Chris didn’t really know anything about the town or school, he figured it was a pretty safe bet, saying Meet me in front of the school seemed like a great place.

Chris sat on a low wall that doubled as a bench if you actually wanted it to, in his loose fitting light jeans and striped button down, just what he told Jazlene he would be wearing, just in case she couldn’t tell who he was from his picture.
