It was Wednesday afternoon finishing with the last period, maths. Charlotte loved math's heaps but sometimes she couldn't work out a single thing. Fractions and decimals they started with. Ten minutes into the lesson, " Hey sir, sorry I'm late... "It was Baxter. Charlotte stopped that second to see the shocked and her cheeks going bright pink as a tomato. He looked over at Charlotte. She was forcing the pinkness to go down and making herself look at the floor. Since Baxter was late, he was made to sit in the seat that wasn't full and that was next to Charlotte. At first he didn't recognize her but once he said hey she looked up from the worksheet. She was nervous and worried what would happen next or what will go on.

"Hey how are you going?" Baxter was trying to make a conversation with Charlotte. "Oh hi...um... good alright, I think what about you?" Trying to make conversation with someone you didn't work with or even just say the general words to. Soon before you know it, they were talking like long lost friends.

As soon as the bell went for them to go to lunch. They had a proper conversation and Charlotte wasn't feeling nervous any more. "Well cya you later Charlotte, I'll text you later or something... "Baxter was smiling and brushing his fringe out of his way." "Oh bye Baxter... and it Charlie for my friends." Charlotte was blushing big time. She really did like Baxter. And she thinks he likes her, even the slightest. Charlotte started to walk off to her next class when she was lost in space to that about what she should do if her friends or anyone else thought that she liked Baxter. She did like him she didn't want anyone to know because she knew how fast things got around at her old high school so she figured it would be quite the same at this school. If she had to tell anyone I would probably be Paris because everyone thought they were best friends even though all she did was show her around. She did say she was looking for a best friend though so maybe soon or something but not just yet. In fact after lunch Paris saw Charlotte outside class and knew something was up because normally she is bragging about how good History was and all. She was just smiling her cheeky smile and holding her bag while she was still packing it from the class she just had. "Ok, we haven't been friends long, Charlie, but I have a feeling when something is going to happen or is about to happen, so what's going to happen?"

"Well... there...there is a guy... and... his like... perfect..." Charlotte was sounding like she lived on strawberries and cream. She was like in this best mood she has been all week. "OMGGG!! No way what's his name? I knew this was coming, wait is it Baxter? I heard from other group that he likes you and everything, is it him? Omg you guys would be totally cute... aww" 'Paris didn't stop talking about him. Of cause it was him who else what it be. She was then once daydreaming about him once Paris and couldn't stop thinking about him. Why did she likes someone she had no chance with at all with? Anyway Charlotte just kept thinking about Baxter while Pairs just blabbed on and on about Baxter and her together. She really hoped no one will find out but like Paris said other people ran into Baxter and now everyone thinks they are like dating or something like that. "Well do you guys have a class together or are lab partners?" Paris was very pushy when it came to putting together for a relationship but she actually really wanted Baxter and Charlotte to get together. But now she doesn't know if they really would go out or anything. Yet Charlotte is still new and it's only a crush so she has no idea.

Oh that Paris talked about in school was how he thought Charlotte and Baxter would be super cute together and they were just meant to be together. "Ok Paris I get it you think I would be cute with Baxter but come... look at me, I have no chance with a guy like him. I am just like a shadow to all the popular girls trying to impress him so I will might just stay out the one and focus on my studies." Charlotte wasn't at all happy saying these words but deep down she knew of this was true. Why couldn't the guys she liked for once actually like her... It was all messed up. She was so restated that it was going to be this way but oh well that is life.

Baxter was nervous. "I don't what to too Mike... like I sat next to her in maths and she is very sweet and wow she is truly smart like I swear she had no idea what she was doing when she was looking at me smiling and blush, god she is pretty," Baxter was talking to his best mate Mike. Well he was trying to talk to Mike he got distracted by Charlotte. "Um...Baxter she is a girl and she is like any other girl in this school, you seem to have a crush on her by the sounds of things but do you know who you are? You a guy that mostly every girl in this school likes, like our dating the hottest girl in the school, aren't you happy with her? If not I will gladly take over..." Mike was happy for his mate that he was dating the hottest girl in school but he thinks that Baxter wasn't that happy either. What was going to make Baxter happy Mike thought? Then when Mike was at home playing his Xbox he thought that maybe he can get Charlotte to talk to Baxter and see what happens there. Will anything happen though, that was the main question.

Paris was watching her music videos when Baxter's best mate, Mike, was messaging her to see if she could get Charlotte to come to the park tomorrow afternoon after school. She read the text with excitement of that thought and called him that minute and they talked on how much that was an awesome plan and should happen no matter what. They will walk to Paris's house then go down to the park when Mike texted Paris when. Charlotte had no idea what was going to happen she just thought they would hang out like best friends and have fun while getting to know each other more. But no Mike and Paris was going to get Charlotte and Baxter together. They both just hoped it will work as it did in their heads but you never know.
