"Everyone this is... I'm sorry sweetheart what's your name?" Mrs. Smith asked the boy next her.

"Luke. Luke Hemmings" the boy answered.

"Oh goodie! You can sit right next to Cady" Mrs. Smith said. Wait what! I didn't agree to this! Someone then tapped me on my shoulder.

"Hello I'm Luke!" He said extending his hand for a hand shake. What do I do?!?

"I- um I'm Cady" I said trying to not sound nervous but completely failed.

"I'm Australian" he said.
