🌸 Skylar's P.O.V 🌸

I watch out my window as the houses zoom past. I am on my way to my first day of school at Asheville High and I can actually feel the nerves swirling in my stomach as I sit in the car next to my Dad.

"Honey, you're going to be absolutely fine, I promise". Dad laughed.

"No Dad, you don't know that, I could, I could, ummmm, I could fall on my way to my locker and sprain my ankle!" I rushed out.

"That is very, very unlikely.", "Just think, it's your last year of High School before you head of to college, please try to just make the most of it and have fun."

I thought about it for a moment.

"I guess, I could give it my best Dad."

We finally pull up outside the school.

"Thank you, now go and make some friends, I will be here at the end of the day to pick you up again." I lean over and give him a kiss on the cheek. "God, I feel like I am taking you to you first day of school, just go and enjoy your day, I love you."

"Yeah, I love you too Dad!"

As I make my way to what I think is the front office to collect my timetable. I look up briefly only to crash into what seems like a brick wall.

"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! Are you okay?!" A boyish voice hurriedly asks me.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just you know, wasn't really planning on hanging out with the concrete this morning." I managed to laugh out.

"Yeah, sorry about that, I'm Colton by the way." I look up to see an extremely handsome blonde boy with his hand extended ready to help me up.

I stare open-mouthed for a minute before composing myself.

"I'm Skylar, but you can call me Sky, if you want." I flash my award winning smile.

"Well Sky, how may I be of your service?"

"I am trying to find the front office to grab my schedule if you can show me the way?"

"I sure can, follow me." I can tell already we are going to get along just fine.

We walk along the concrete path to a building I believe to be the front office. Colton opens the door and steps inside.

"Well look who we have here, in to see the Principal again are we Mr. Hayland?" Says a lady I am guessing to be the office woman.

"No, not yet, I might see you later though Miss. Charlton?" Colton replies throwing in what seems to be a very natural smirk.

"You better hope not, now if your not here for that what do you want?"

"Well, I, being the kind person I am, offered to help Sky over here find the front office, she needs her timetable, today's her first day you see."

Miss. Charlton turns to me and looks at me for a second before a look of recognition crosses her face.

"Ahh, yes, Skylar Della Vona?" I nod and she carries on. "Here is your timetable sweet heart." She finishes handing over my timetable. She then turns back to Colton.

"Mr. Hayland how about you show Miss. Della Vona to her class?" Miss. Charlton asks swiftly.

"Sure thing, thanks Miss. Charlton!" Colton yells as he is walking out the door. He then turns to me and swiftly grabs my timetable and having a look. "Looks like we're in the same class Sky, lucky you."

I am beginning to think this school has a lot more in store for me than I originally thought.

----------------------------------------------------------------

The day went by quicker than I thought. I am now on my way to the front of the school to wait for my Dad. I stop when I hear someone calling my name.

"Sky! Hey Sky wait up!" He yells from half way across the parking lot.

"Man Colton! Already missing me I see?!"

"Well yes and no. I want you to come to my place after scho-" i cut him off there.

"Woah, woah, woah, slow down tiger, already inviting me over after the first day?" I say jokingly.

"Let me finish Sky, I want you to come over and meet my friends, seen how you decided to, for some unknown reason, eat in the library at lunch today instead of in the cafeteria with me!" He rushed out as if waiting for me to interrupt again.

"Fine." I say as I see my Dad pull up. "On one condition." He nods. "There better be food." We both burst out laughing after a minute of silence. He nods again. We swap numbers before I swiftly hop into the car.
