Alaska's POV

I was walking down the corridor of Eastwood High, my new school. I had my books cradled in my arms and was holding them as tight as I could as I looked down at my feet. Why did my parents have to get a new job. They could of at least given me an option to stay back at home with my grandma.

As I was biting my bottom lip and staring at the ground a group of what guessing were matrics bumped into me.

"Watch were you going new girl!"

One of the boys said to me while the rest just laughed and whispered moron. One of the boys caught my eye though he wasnt laughing, instead he looked a bit sadden by the comment the other boy said. He looked up at me and instantly our eyes locked. Then I snapped out of it when the boy who  made the a comment about me said

" Lets go boys."

And the rest followed him down the corridor. I could of sworn that the boy who didnt laugh whisped sorry as he passed me, but it was so faint I thought I was just imagining things.
I carried on walking down the corridor till I got to my first class a minute early, it was Maths.

As soon as I walked in I found a seat at the back of the room next to the window that showed the view of the forest next to the school, it was beautiful. After what felt like hours but actually was 5 minutes a whole class of pupils came rushing in and found there seats. Then the teacher came in and wrote his name on the blackboard. As he was about to dot the 'i' in Silverton the boy that I saw earlier who wasn't laughing at me came in.

" Brad Cooper! Your late."

Mr Silverton screamed at the boy who I now knew the name of.

" Sorry Sir, it won't happen again."

Brad spotted me and came to the seat next to me and sat down. I couldn't help but stare.

"Where's the new girl?"

Mr Siverton said asking for me. I stood up and said.

"That would be me sir."

"Please come up to the front."

He said cheerfully. I walked up to the front of the class and got a bunch of stares from everyone in the class.

"What is your name?"

"Alaska Young."

As soon as I said that there was an outburst of laughter. As someone from the front said.

" What type of name is that?"

I quickly walked to the back of the class and sat down.

Brad looked at me like he felt sorry for me, I tried to ignore him but I just couldn't. I really like him, but his a jock and the schools 'it' guy and I'm the new girl with the stupid name. I felt attracted to him but did he feel the same?
