Nerd Charming

Chapter One

Working on my video to promote the library for my journalism class. I noticed a new guy walk in, I mean I would have missed him had he not walked in my shot.

I watched him slip in unnoticed by anyone and log on to one of the schools computers. I pretended to fiddle with my camera as i watch him log to one of my favorite authors website. i watched as he looked up the tour date for his new book. the only reason that i know what he was looking up was because i myself have visited that website many times myself to make sure the date stayed the same. because me and my best friend Rose have already mad plans to attend the event This boy grabbed my attention with his book interest and for one thing i will be keeping an eye oh him.

The bell rings and makes me jump i had no released that i had been watching him for so long. i grabbed my camera gear and head back to the journalism room to put it away with one last quick look over my shoulder to see him leave to go to class.

as i turn my head back around i released to late that i should of been watching where i was going. because standing in front me now with my face in his chest is the star of the football team.

he grabs me by my arms before i get the chance to fall on my butt and embarrass myself even more. i look up at his six foot seven frame with heat in my face.
"i'm Sorry, i should of been watching where i was going. Are you okay?" i asked.
he responded with "i'm fine, Are You?"
"Yea I'm fine. I'll just have to be more careful were i walk" trying to look anywhere but in his hypnotic green eyes.
After a few seconds of awkward silence he asked.
"so you coming to the game Friday?"
"yea" i answered. "i'll be filming it for the Monday sport highlights" i say holding up the camera in my hand.
"oh yeah, that right i forgot" he said with a a shy smile. "i guess i'm going to have to give you something to film." he flirted

"Zoey" called Mrs. Jones. hearing my name made me jump.
"yes, Mrs. Jones" i turned to face her. "You two had better get a move on or your going to be late." she stated.
we both waved awkwardly and walked our separate ways.

As i walk into the journalism room to grab my laptop and upload what footage i got, before i was distracted. After putting away the camera and gathering my stuff and head on over to the circulation desk. to start my shift as an library assistant.

As i'm reshelving books my best friend Rose comes up behind me and grabs me. I have to put my hand over my mouth to stop myself from screaming. i turn and smack her in the arm which causes her to cover her mouth.
"ow" she say as she rubs her arm. then she looks at me.
"ok i deserved that. but you have to give it to me you gave me the perfect opportunity \. i had to take it"she said smugly.
"oh alright but i you could of got us in trouble you know how Mrs. Jone is" i whispered.
"we can't afford to get in trouble this close to the book launch" i finish shelving the books and we head back to the circulation desk.
"so... what brings you in here this morning?" i ask in my sweetest voice while batting my eyes at her. Rose giggles.
"why i do believe i need a book for my report" she says in a southern draw. i hold out my arm for her to take like a gentleman. we both have to hold in our giggles as we walk to the books she needs.

Armed with the books she needs Rose heads back to class telling me she would see me a lunch.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sitting at the circulation desk waiting on anybody to come in. i worked on my video until i come upon the part where the new mystery boy walked in, as i sat there and tried to figure out who he was. it was just about to be my luck day because just as soon as i had that thought in walked the schools gossip queen.
"what can i help you with Cindy?" i asked as she looked around the room.
"um... Nothing really just looking for a place to hide until third." she replied still searching the library.
knowing who she searching for i tell her that Mrs.Jones is in a meeting about getting more books for the library and won't be back until third.
"oh so... you think it would be cool if i hung out in here until the bell rings?" she asked
"yea, but on one condition" i state
"what would that be?" she looked skeptical.
"what do you know about the the new guy?" now i was the nervous one. she smiled
"there not really anything scandals about him he just transferred fro the towns public high school . today is his first day. i'm surprised you know about him." she looks at me questingly.
"he came in here, close to the end of first and ruined my shot. that's how i know about him" i state trying to hide my interest in the guy.
"oh" was all she said as she went to look at the fiction books.

Rose meets me outside the library and we head on over to lunch. she looks up at me giddy and has a pep in her step. i give her a sideways look that says what's wrong with you. grinning from ear to ear she looks at me and say, "What?" like she this sweet innocent little thing.
"don't what me. why are you so happy?" i''m skeptical of her bubbly mode.
"i was in second and you'll never believe who walks in the door." ahh now it's time for me to guess all the wrong answers before she will tell me who.
"Nick Jonas" guess number one
"no silly, someone that would actually come to this one pony school of ours" she gave me her be serious look.
"umm.... prince charming?" guess number two, why not go for the fairy tales.
"wow that's really close"
"umm... wait, what" now i'm confused
"well" she started "you got the prince part right" she all but squeaked out her answer.
"what do you mean i got the prince part right?" man i need to get out of the library more. we head to the lunch line where our conversation comes to an end for the moment. as soon as we sit with our wonderful lunches of chicken and fries. I stare holes into Roses head until she squirms uncomfortable.
"fine" she throws her hands up. "his name is Scott" i hold up my hand to stop her from talking.
"his name is Scott Prince Scott. What kind of name is that?" and it would happen that he would walk by at that moment.
"and what's wrong with my name?" he asked.
"nothing really, I've just never heard of a prince named Scott" i paused and looked up at him "i'm sorry if hurt your feelings it just through me thats all" as i finish my face starting to lose the red tint from the impromptu embarrassment that i caused myself.
"i like you. you say whats on your mind. Mind if i sit." he motioned at the chair, we nodded.
"sure" we said in unison.
"So Prince Scott what is your last name?" i questioned
"Scott " was all that he said
"so your name is Prince Scott Scott." i replied with a smirk.which cause rose to giggle.
"no its Prince Allen Scott." he stated. i look at Rose and laugh which cause her to laugh. i can see in her eyes that were both not sure how to handle this Prince.
