Cassandra's P.O.V.

"Bye Dad." I say as I shut the door to the sleek, black Range Rover. I walk into school, heading straight to my first class of the day: Science. Science has always been my least favorited subject at school. It's so hard! After I sit at my seat, the teacher is just now coming into the room, setting her coffee cup and briefcase down onto her small, wooden desk. I slightly laugh as I take in her disheveled appearance. Someone woke up a tad late, I think to myself. My smile is quickly wiped off of my face as I look over at the person sat next to me. Tyler. Over the past week, Tyler and I have only managed to talk a couple of times. On his second day, Jade quickly took Tyler under her wing, obviously forming a plan of getting him and I together. I'm still a little skeptical about the whole thing. I mean, do I like him? Does he like me? Of course he doesn't! I mean look at me! Gross. I quickly break out of my thoughts at the sound of my name. I look at Tyler curiously to see what he wants.

"Yeah?" I say. He smiles and opens his mouth to speak.

"I was just wondering if you were busy this wee-" He doesn't get to finish his sentence, the teachers' voice interrupting him.

"Okay class! I'm assigning you guys to read the next two chapters in the textbook and making your own notes for the upcoming exam. We will go over them sometime next week. You can get started now.You have 30 minutes." Everyone groans and whines, but soon cheer after the teacher announces that partners are allowed. Babies.

Sure enough, thirty minutes later the bell soon rings, causing me to pack up my things and head to my Math class. Halfway down the hall, I hear fast paced footsets behind me. I turn around to see Tyler running after me. I smile and stop, waiting for him to catch up.

"What's up?" I laugh. He smiles and answers my question.

"I was just wondering if you wanted to be partners? Y-you know, for science?" Tyler stutters and scratches the back of his neck, clearly nervous. I smile and nod my head.

"Yeah, sure. Do you want to meet up this weekend?" I ask shyly.

"Yeah. Here, put your number in my phone so I can text you." He says and hands me his black iPhone 5c. I quickly type my number in, under Cass Styles, and hand it back.

"Awesome. Well... I'll see you later?" He asks. I nod my head and smile,"good. Well, bye Cass. See you later." He says as he leaves a quick peck to my cheek and walks around me to his next class. I look down at my black Keds and smile, a faint blush sprinkled across my cheeks. I'm starting to love science class.

"Hey kiddo." My Dad says as I climb into the passenger side of the car.

"Hey daddo." I grin as he chuckles.

"How was your day?" He asks as he pulls out of the school parking lot.

"Good." I say and lean back in my seat and close my eyes. My opens quickly open as my dad speaks, gaining my attention.

"I have a surprise for you at the house." He says with a smirk. I narrow my eyes at him and sit up in my seat.

"Which is?" I say slowly. He laughs and shakes his head.

"I can't tell. It's a surprise. Duh!" He says smugly. I pout and cross my arms like a five year old.

"Dad!" I whine. He just chuckles and shakes his head, not saying anything. I sigh and lean back in my seat.

"Close your eyes." My dad says five minutes later as he turns onto our street. I groan,but do as I'm told. A minute later I hear my dad tell me to open my eyes, and I do. When I open my eyes, I can't help but to squeal loudly and look at him with a big wide smile on my face. There, in our driveway, is the most gorgeous, teal convertible. It looks to be from the late 50s, early 60s. My dream car.

"OMG!! Dad, really?!" I say excitedly. He laughs and nods his head. I lunge towards him and trap him into the biggest hug ever.

"Oh my god. I love you, I love you, I love you!!" I yell. He laughs and hugs me back.

"I love you too, baby. It's an early birthday present for you. Happy Birthday!" He laughs. I laugh also and pull back from the hug, still smiling. My 17th birthday is in a couple of weeks, and I've been begging for this car for about a year now. Ah, I'm so excited!!!

"Can I drive it?!" I ask. My dad shakes his head and I pout.

"Homework first, and then I'm gonna cook dinner. Maybe you can take us to get ice cream or something." He smiles. I smile back and nod happily.

As I'm doing my homework, I can't but to smile and think about today's events. First, I get a chance to talk more with Tyler and then I get a car?!?! My life couldn't be any better.
