      Halsey

      The bright sun glared it's bright white light down onto the dull earth as the sound of a pebble rolling across the sidewalk hit her ears. A small girl walked down the sidewalk, making her daily treck to school. He brunette colored hair laid by her shoulders, as her jade green eyes reflected the suns bright beams of light as she neared her destination.

      It's a beautiful Friday morning, the sun is shining bright in the cloudless sky, flowers we're starting to bloom their vibrant colors after being gone for the dreaded winter, but unfortunatly for Halsey, she'll never be able to experience the full beauty of the flowers colors. She's colorblind, or so everyone seems to think, but she's used to never seeing color and only black and white, in fact she thinks life is rather simple because of it.
A soft grin graced her lips as she walked onto her schools campus and instantly made her way over to the front door where her group of friends was waiting for her. She's rather popular amongest the student body of he senior class, and knows everyone, but she's only close with a small group; the group that she spends most of her time with. The group consists of five people, including her. They may be a small bunch, but really they're the greatest friends she's ever had.

      The members of the group all are different in their own ways, but yet they all do have some things in common that make them all close. Cher is the spunky one of the group, with her sassy, but fun, personality. She's one of the most admired girls in school, considering her looks and personality are beautiful and go hand-in-hand. Kerri-Ann, otherwse known as Kerri, is the "class clown" of the group. Her sense of humor and happy-go-lucky attitude can brighten up anyones day. Every group needs at least one some-what-athletic member, and in this case his nae is Sam, he's also Cher's boyfriend. Finally, there's Randy, the fabulous homosexual in the group, who's also Halsey's best gay-friend. He's sassy, sweet, and just an amzing person all around. They've all been friends since their 1st year of high school, they met at orientation, and have been together ever since.

      "Hey! Nice to see ya Hals!" Kerri grinned as she wrapped the girl in a hug, which she returned happily.

      "Morning guys." Halsey pulled out of Kerri's hug as she yawned a bit and quickly covered her mouth.

      "Someone seems tired, what time you go to bed last night, hmm?" Randy questioned as they all walked into school together.

      "Early enough to know that you're a jackass." Halsey sassily remarked as she walked over to her locker before Randy could say another word.
Halsey quickly put in her locker combination and grabbed the large binder that held everything she needed for all of her mrning classes, and her texts books before her and Kerri make their way towards the least favorite class, calculus.

      "Why do we need math? It's not like I'm everyone going to need this." She whines as they walk into their class room.

      "I dont know man, they probably all think we're gonna be some math majors or something." Kerri shrugs her shoulders.

      The two girls sit down at their normal computers andq uickly pull up the Aleks program, which is really just a glorified website that they use for math instead of having an actual math teacher. Everyone hates the program, considering they've all been dooing it since they were freshman, but each year tere's always been the group of over achievers who finish Aleks for the year.Unfortunately, Halsey is not one of thse people, considering she sucks at any form of math, and hates it with a deep buring passion.

      "Hey Halsey, did you hear about the new student that starts today?" A girl asks.

      Halsey just shakes her head, but keeps her eyes trained on her computer. "What new student?"

      "We're supposed to be getting a new transfer student, or so I've heard." The girl explains. "I also heard that he's pretty hot, too.I wonder what he looks like." She sighs dreamily.

      Halsey just rolls her eyes as she puts her headphones on. A new transfer student? Sounds rather unlikely really. Even though their school dos have a student transfer program, who the hell would want to come here, anyways? In Halsey's opinion, this town absolutely sucks. No one should even think about coming here, nevermind transferring her.

      She shook the thought of the new stuent out of her mind as she quickly put on her favorite song and started to get her work done. As the minutes passed she just seemed to zone out and became more concentrated on her work and the music that was blaring through her headphones. The chit-chat from the rest of the students in the room didn't even phase her.

      Meanwhile, an unfamiliar figure made his way into the classroom, a sy smile laced with abit of nervousness graced his beautiful face as he handed the teacher his late pass. He's tall, coming in at 6'4, but his golden quiff probably added onto his height a bit. His ocean blue eyes scanned across the classroom as he sucked his black lip ring in between his teeth, his nervousness seemingly growing as he listened to the whispers of the girls in the classroom.

      Kerri quickly reached over and yanked Halsey's headphones off her head.

      "Hey! What gives!?" Halsey whispered yelled in annoyance.

      Kerri just gestured behind her quietly. "You might want to take a look for yourself Hals."

      Halsey groaned softly as she turned her direction towards the front of the classroom, and her jaw almost dropped as she looked at the immaculate boy.

      "Alright everyone, listen up." Ms. Smith, the teacher, said sternly. "This is Luke Hemmings, he just moved her from Australia. I expect you to welcome him with open arms, and treat him like he's been here as long as the rest of you. Luke, you may pick any seat you want."
Luke nodded his ehad and quickly took an open seat that was only a few away from Halsey.

      Halsey tried to return to doing her work, she wanted to get back into her concentrated zone since she was doing so good before Kerri had to point out Luke, but now she was having such a hard time concentraiting since she kept on glancing over at him every few seconds. Even though she's colorblind, she doesnt need to see in color to be able to tell you that he's completely fautless. She's never seen someone so superb in her life, as cliche as that sounds, it's completely true.

      After a moment of trying to do her work, she glances back over at him, expecting him to be too into his work to notice. A blush of embarrassment makes its way across her cheeks as she looks directly into his eyes. He gives her a soft smile as he gently bites at his lip ring, before letting it drop. God, he looks really hot when he bites his bottom lip, and he has such deep blue eyes, he's beautiful.

      A wave of confusion goes through her mind as she notices the color of his eyes and stares at him with interest. Blue eyes? She's never seen blue eys before, but then again she's never seen color before. This is the first time she's ever seen color in her life! Or maybe she's just seeing things, which is probably just the case.

      Luke gives her a friendly wave, a soft, deep chuckle escaping his lips before he goes back to doing his work, and Halsey returns her gaze to her computer screen, her cheeks still tinted with a blush.

      "Ooooh, Halsey! Already flirting with the Luke, huh?" Kerri gently nudges her with her elbow.

      Halsey cracks a small smile, but keeps her silence. Should she tell Kerri that she knows what color his eyes are? No, she'll probably just think she's crazy, considering Kerri knows very well that Halsey has her seeing disability. Afterall, she's probably just seeing things anyways. What are the odds that the new student would come in and she'd be able to see colors? Very, very slime. There's no way she's seeing colors, she's colorblind. Colors don't appaear just randomly, though, so she's just seeing things then. Luke Hemmings is not letting her see things in color, that's completely absured.
