After meeting Liam we both parted ways and went to our first period class. For me it was math which just droned on and on. The day continued to move slow until finally it was lunch time. I walked into the lunchroom to find it already very crowded. I was searching for somewhere to sit and finally I found a small table in the corner of the room that was empty. I sat down and started eating then, out of no where someone tapped my shoulder and startled me half to death. I looked up to see the only familiar face in the whole school,Liam's.

"Hey, um would you mind if I sat here?" he asked while smiling at me. I returned his smile and said,"No, of course not have a seat." quickly he pulled out a chair and sat down. We sat in silence for a few minutes, and when I couldn't take it any more I decided to speak up. "So Liam, what grade are you in?" I asked.

"11th."

"So that would make you what seventeen then?"

"No, actually I'm still sixteen."

"Well obviously you know I'm a freshman and that, that means I'm fourteen." I said.

"So um Liam what do you like to do?" I said trying to find out more about him.

"I like to sing." He replied his smile growing bigger for his obvious love of singing. I smiled back at this piece of information I love music more than anything. "Really? Can I hear you sometime?" I said getting more and more excited by the minute.

"Yeah actually you and the whole world will get to hear me sing in two weeks." he said. Now i was confused. "What's happening in two weeks?"

"Two years ago I tried out for this show called the xfactor and I didn't make it, but one of the judges told me to come back in two years so that's exactly what I'm going to do." Now I was really into his story and also now it felt like more of a need to hear his voice. "I'm sorry you didn't make it the first time, but i just know you're going to make it in this time and that you're going to win."

"Thanks Alyssa, that means a lot, and call me crazy but I think that we are going to be great friend." and to be honest it didn't sound crazy cause i was thinking the same thing. "I don't think you're crazy Liam I know we are going to be good friends." I smiled at him. Right as i was about to say something else the bell rang. I looked at Liam quickly and asked for his number. I handed him my phone and he handed me his. After exchanging number we parted again and i was forced to suffer two more hours of this hell.

My mom had to work late today so I was forced to take the bus home. On the ride home though I felt something hit the back of my head I turned around to see a paper airplane on the floor. Picking up the plane I looked inside, and right there in the middle were two words look up. I know it was the stupid thing to do, but i looked up anyway. When I did i got a bottle of soda dumped all over me.

"Next time nerd don't protect the kid." the voice that I now recognized as the jock from earlier said. I sat in silence the rest of the ride home while everyone else just kept laughing and pointing at me.

When I got home I ran straight to my room grabbed a pair of comfy sweats and went to take a shower, A little while later my mom got home asked me about school and I told her about the jocks and Liam.

"Aw sweetie don't let them get to you, and see I told you, you would make a friend."

"Yeah yeah yeah, I'm going to bed okay?" I asked

"Sure sweetie sweet dreams."

"k night mom." I yelled while running up the stairs to my room. I looked at the clock and realized it was already 11:10. I sat there and waited for a minute to make my 11:11 wish. As the clock changed numbers I quietly said my wish.

"I wish that this year will be different, and that something will go my way for once." Opening my eyes i grabbed my phone and saw a text message from Liam.

"Hey you're probably asleep right now, but I just wanted to say good night and thank you again for sticking up for me today--Liam" the message was sent about an hour ago so i decided not to reply in case it woke him up. I put my phone on my bed side table and laid down to go to sleep dreaming about finally getting to hear Liam sing.
