Paris' POV: FLASHBACK
I'm new to this school. I don't know anyone here. I just moved here to Australia with my family from Los Angeles, California. My mom was mad that we had to move but, my fathers job required him to move here, even though he still had to travel a lot.
It was weird being here in Australia because, even though the climates of L.A. and here are the same, I had an overwhelming change of scenery. At the time I still had my braces in and I forget to order some more contacts before we left and when I went to put my last pair in this morning, it fell into the toilet and I didn't know so I went to flush it and down goes my last contact. So at the moment I have to wear my thick glasses therefore I don't feel too confident today.
It was time for my first class and to be honest, I'm nervous as hell. I go to the room and scan it to see if there was any available seats. But the only one there was a seat next to a boy, which was quite attractive actually and he had his bag in the seat next to him. I approach the seat ready to ask him to move his bag but instead he said, "Hey gorgeous." I blushed the deepest shade of crimson. Me with my blue braces, huge thick glasses and he called me gorgeous?! I think something is wrong with the Australian men.
"Sorry, do you want to sit here?" he asked me. I tried not to freak out but I nod my head and he removed his bag and I took a seat. "I'm Luke." he says stretching out his hand.I shake it firmly.
"Paris, like the city." I say almost a whisper. Where is all my confidence? Oh yeah, down the toilete with my contacts.
"Cute," he says. But that was it, no more conversations after that, But during the couple of classes that we had together which was surprisingly almost all, I couldn't take my eyes off of him. His bright blue eyes and a damned lip ring that makes his pink lips look so freakin kissable. Me and my hormones.
"Hey Paris, you okay?" he asks me. I jump when I hear his voice and respond with just a whisper. "Yeah just thinking."
Later that day I bought lunch which was pasta with garlic bread. Then Luke called me over to his lunch table with him and his friends Ashton, Calum, and Ashton. I was eating while the boys was talking and then I laughed when Calum said something then Luke pointed something out.
"Hey Paris, I think you got something in your braces." I swear I blushed such a deep shade of red that I cold actually feel when it rushed to my face. I get my mirror out and look to only be met by an unwanted piece of broccoli stuck between my braces. So I ran to the bathroom to take it out so ready to cry. I can't believe hat I actually embarrassed myself in front of strangers like that.
After I cleaned my braces, I sulk back into dinning hall and back to the table where I only meet Luke sitting there looking at something in front of him. I sigh as I walked over to get my bag but me being such the klutz that I am, I end up falling on my front, face nearly in the tiled floor. Literally I almost die when one boy stars to laugh then everyone started to laugh as well. I try to look up but everything is blurry. Then I find out my glasses broke and now I can't see basically at all. Luke rushed to help me up.
"Can you see?" he asks me. I shake my head as my eyes try to adjust to blindness. "Stop freaking Laughing 'cause it's not funny!" he says looking kind of angry at everyone.
"Oh Luke seriously your going to stick up for this random 10 year old geek!?" sounded like a boy to me because obviously, I can't see.
"Yes I am, thank you very much!" Luke says grabbing my bag and he leads me out of the room. "I'm sorry, these people can be real assholes. I'm taking you to the office so you can call your mom or dad or someone to take you to get new glasses or contacts 'cause those glasses don't really show off your beautiful eye color." Luke says.
"Thank you very much Luke." I say looking at him but not really looking at him because I can't actually see him very well
"No problem." he says and that was the last word he said to me for that day because I had to leave. I can't believe I embarrassed myself like that in front of people I have never seen before in my life. But in this moment and the moments before, I realized that Luke is very special.
