Taylan scribbled on his pad without any regard to what he was writing. He preferred the writing program to the keyboard. Two new people! It was all well and good, first day stuff, and Taylan didnâ€™t pay much attention. Not that he ever paid much attention. Just sitting still through entire classes was a chore for him.<br/><br/>Then came the tapping. Clickety-clack, clickety, tap tap tapâ€¦ Where was that coming from? At first he tried to keep it a secret that he was looking for the source of the noise. But when it became apparent that so was everyone else, including Miss Wolfcub, he was a bit more blatantly obvious. Donta, the new kid. Well wasnâ€™t that interesting? Taylan wondered what he could possibly be doing that made so much noise on his first day.<br/><br/>The bell rang and Taylan hurried off, practically bounding from the room, as if he were racing to see if he could be the first out. The quicker he was, the fast the day would end! And that faster he could do what he really wanted to be doing.<br/><br/>A body ran into him from behind, nearly knocking him over. His tail flicked and waved, impeccable balance the only thing keeping him upright. â€œOh hi!â€ he exclaimed, pumping the offered hand excitedly. â€œIâ€™m Taylan.â€ Neither would he let the wolf get away with just a wave; he grabbed his hand and shook that rather hard too. â€œWhat did you think about that? First day and the new guyâ€™s already fallen in love with Miss Wolfcub! I wonder what sheâ€™ll do about it. What do you think sheâ€™ll do about it? Hey, where are you guys going next? I have gym! Thatâ€™s my favorite.â€ The money seemed to babble on, hardly pausing to let anyone respond until he had to take a breath.
