"Angella, hurry up. You're going to be late for school!" my mom voice echoed from the living room.

"I'll be down in a minute!" I yelled from my room, squeezing my jeans in my thighs.

It was my first day at East Chapel Hill High School, I grabbed my backpack. And headed to the kitchen.

"I made pancakes sweetheart, when you finish wash the dishes ok?" My mom said in a rush.

"Ok, mom relax!" I said eating my pancakes.

"I'm in a hurry, I have to meet my boss today, I don't want to be late."

"Ok" I said with my mouth full.

"Bye baby, I love you"

"Love you too" I said as she kissed my forehead and left.

I washed the dishes grabbed my house keys and head off to take my bike.

School, here I come.

I entered to the doors and saw all this students with their backpacks, entering to classrooms, rushing in the hallway.

"Hi, you must be Angella Anderson right?" A blonde sweet girl greeted me.

" That's my name" I answered shaking her hand.

"Good, I am Jessica Martin, but you can call me Jess. The principal asked me to show you around." She said grabbing my schedule which I hold in my hand.

"You have math first which means that you have to take your math book everyday at the end of the last period to be prepared before the class..."

And suddenly I felt a piercing pain in my head making me lose balance. Everything went black.

I opened my eyes.... Everything was narrowed. I was in a bed. In a place I figured might be the nurse's office.

"Thank God you're awake" A really deep voice said. I tried to look who it was by following the sound of his voice.And I found him. A really cute boy seating in front of me. A brown haired guy with strong hands and chest. He was so handsome it hurt. Maybe the hurt part was actually my head...

I tried to stand up, as he helped me sit on the bed. When he touched my hands I felt butterflies in my stomach.... It was an amazing/awkward feeling.

"I'm incredibly sorry " He managed tu mumble. I could tell he felt reallt bad.

"You're sorry for what?" I mumbled contemplating his cuteness.

"Erm... for hiting you with the basketball."

"What basketball?" I asked confused... as I remembered how I was normally walking in the hall.... And the everything darkened.

"Oh, I remember now..." That explains the very real pain in my head.

"I'm extremely sorry" he repeated

"Oh, don't worry" I said standing up.

"Are you alright? Shouldn't you stay resting?" he asked concerned.

"Don't worry, I'm fine" I said.

"Seriously... you feel alright?" He said grabbing my hands.

"Yes, don't worry" I said with a grin as I pulled away my hands.

"Is there something I can do to make it up to you?" He asked.

"No, don't worry.... It's ok..." I said looking for my bag.

"You're new I don't want you to have the wrong idea about this school... how about you come to lunch wih me?"

"How is that suposse to make me feel any better...?" Iasked casually... And he looked at me trying to respond without actually saying anything.

"Don't worry. You don't have to do that." I refused again.

"Please, let me invite you lunch... is the least I can do" he insisted.

"You never lose do you?"

"No, let me" he said looking for my bag. He grabbed it and handed it to me. I stared at his big brown eyes. They were so shiny.... we stood for a couple of seconds just looking at each other.

"Lunch is fine" I said trying to break up the awkwardness.

"Angella, thank God you're ok... I thought you were in a coma!" Jessica interrupted rushing to hug me, standing between us.

"Yes, I'm fine Jessica."

"Shouldn't you be resting?" Jessica asked touching my forehead.

"I asked her the same thing" he added looking at me.

"Seriously, I'm fine. Can I go to class now?"

"If that's what you want... I can take you" Jessica said.

"I can do that for you Jess, I will love to show Angella around, and I'm Nathan by the way" He said shaking my hand.

"Nice to meet you Nathan" I responded.

Jessica stared at us in amazement as she cleared her throat.

"Well in that case.... I'm leaving for class..."

Jessica gave me a wink and left the nurse office.

"According to your schedule... your next class is Spanish.... And then biology...You take every class with me.... But Spanish. That's a bummer" he added

"What's a bummer? The fact that you'll take almost every class with me?" I said reaping my schedule off his hands.

"No, the fact that there's one class I'll have to take without you" He responded looking deep into my eyes. He grabbed my bag and walked me to class.

"So, are we on for lunch?" he asked standing in front of the door with me.

I looked at him and hesitated... "Sure.." I responded with a grin while I entered into the classroom.

This guy is too perfect to be true... the way he looks, the way he talks, everything about him can leave you breathless. But there has to be something that will screw this.
