chapter 1

y/n's pov

i walk into my first class. my palms sweaty, my legs trembling, my nerves were really bad today. "y/n! class everyone welcome y/n she's new," the teacher announces- unusually enthusiastic for a monday morning- followed by a few tired groans- which made me chuckle. "go take a seat next to tom." a blonde-haired, blue eyed boy at the back waved with a half-hearted smile. i nod and walk over. i sat against the wall, feeling awkward- he's really quiet.

first period was math which was alright, i've always enjoyed doing math. i look to my right to see tom. he looked like he was falling asleep, which made me giggle. then a loud voice bellowed from the front, "TOM!" 

he jumped slightly, "uh- yes?" the classes necks craned towards him. "are we asleep mr. simmons?" his cheeks shined a faint pink colour and replied a quiet, "n- no sir." "okay, tom, if 'y = -2x + 4'  what would the gradient be?" "shit." he muttered under his breath. i could tell he didn't know, i saw a bead of sweat on his forehead plus he was stuttering over his words. it was straight line graphs, they're pretty simple. "t- the uh the gradient  would be urm.." i didn't feel like being an ass today. 

"the answers -2." i whispered to him. "what?" he muttered back "the gradient is the value of x, so the answers -2." 

"the answers -2" he spoke. "very good, mr. simmons. glad to see you're paying attention." everyone's necks turned back to face the front.

"thank you." he murmured, just loud enough for me to hear. "don't worry about it."

the sound of an obnoxious bell rung through my ears. it was the end of the day- thank fuck. everyone got up simultaneously and headed towards the door. i grabbed my skateboard i left behind a bush near the front of the school, put in my earphones, and headed home.

i look over to my left to see y/n asleep. i chuckled to myself. then, that god awful bell started ringing. before i could say a word, she shot up in an instant and started to leave. 

i noticed two of my friends in the hall on the way out, and then spotted her. i wanted to ask her out or something, maybe get to know her a bit- she seemed different from everyone else.  when i finally caught up to her, she grabbed her skateboard and left. "shit" i muttered. "do you like her?" i didn't notice my friend eryn creep behind me.

"what? no.." i replied, lying through my teeth. "don't lie to me tom." "no, i don't" lying once again.

when i got home, i rang the first person i thought of. 

"will, i need to talk to you."

i finally got home. it was just me and my dog, henry. i collapsed into bed with henry laid across me. i fussed him a bit to get my mind off things, but my head wondered thinking of him. thinking of tom. 'stop it y/n' i thought to myself 'don't let your guard down. you're just going to get hurt again'. i signed and fell asleep.
