PART ONE:

You sat in science class. School was almost over. The bell would ring in approximately ten minutes. You loved science. All types of it. You found it so interesting. It was a completely different way of looking at the world.

Eventually, the bell rang and most everyone rushed out. Of course, you waited as you always did until the others had gone so that you could skip the rush. The only other student that remained in the classroom was a fairly attractive (😉) boy. You'd seen him around, but you didn't know his name or anything about him.

He was stuffing a few things in his backpack. It was your time to leave, since the others had left. The boy, apparently, had a similar idea. You were lost in your thoughts, as was he, and you both walked towards the door. You collided, knocking your books and papers you carried out if your hands.

"Sorry!" You both said. 

"It was my fault," the boy said as you squatted to pick up what you'd dropped. 

"No, no. It was my fault," you replied. He did the same as you, handing the books and papers he collected to you once they were all picked up. You made eye contact.

"I'm Pope," he said. 

"(Y/n)," you replied. 

"100%," he said, referring to the test that you'd dropped that was now in your hands.

"Impressive."

"Oh, yeah. Thanks," you replied awkwardly.

"Well, um, I'm gonna be on my way," you said after a few moments of staring at each other. 

"Yes, of course," Pope replied as you both stood up. 

"It was nice to meet you," you said. 

"It was nice to meet you as well," Pope replied. You both walked out of the classroom.

You entered your science class, greeting the teacher before taking your seat. The only thing you despised about this class was Brittany Wishton. You had to sit by her. Fucking Brittany. She was so annoying, yet miraculously, she was one of the most popular people in the school.

"All right, class. We will be switching seats today," said your teacher. Finally, no more Brittany. 

"I will write the new seating chart in the board. Once I say, find your new seat," your teacher continued. You were celebrating mentally. No. More. Brittany!

Once he was done writing the chart on the board, the teacher told you to find your new seats. You went a bit later than the others to avoid the crowd. Then, you saw your name next to Pope's. This was so much better than Brittany.

You went to your new seat, sitting next to Pope. 

"Howdy, stranger," you said as you sat down. 

"Howdy to you as well," Pope replied with a chuckle. "Glad to be rid of Brittany the Barbie?"

"Absolutely," you replied.

~<• el time skip to a week later •>~

You sat down at your spot next to Pope. 

"Howdy," you said, as usual. 

"Howdy yourself," Pope replied. "Hey, um, my friends and I are going boating later. Would you wanna come?"

"Yeah, sure," you replied. "When?"

"Oh, um, just come with me after class," Pope replied. 

"Got it."

~<• el time skip to when you're at the dock with Pope and the Pogues •>~

"Well would you look at that! Pope's got himself a (girl/boy/partner)!" A blonde boy said. Pope glared at him and you blushed a little. 

"Dude, (p)'re/'s my friend. Chill," Pope said. "This is (Y/n)."

You waved awkwardly. "Hello."

"This is JJ, Kie, and John B," Pope said, introducing you to his friends. 

"I invited (p) to come with us," Pope said. 

"Oh, yeah, sure," JJ said, winking at him. You blushed a little harder, trying to stop it. This was gonna be a hell of a time.
