Nick: so er... areee you in year 10 or 11

Y/N: 10, but I'm a September baby so only just

Nick: no way! I'm a September baby as well- the 4th

Y/N: no way! I'm the 12th

The laughs dissolve into a semi awkward silence until I decide to break it up by saying

Y/N: I hate french. Like, actually hate it, and I don't get it for the life of me

Nick: I'm... yeah I'm pretty bad as well to be honest... Oui Oui?

Y/N: there's no way you can be as bad as I am... I sound like I'm speaking Spanish instead of french half the time

We both laugh as we approach the newly refurbished languages block

Nick: well this is it then

Y/N: cant believe my first lesson of the year is french ughhhh

Nick: if you want I could meet you out here after

Y/N: i should probably meet up with Charlie to find tao and Isaac and Elle but thanks for the offer, I might have to take you up on that soon

Nick looks minorly disheartened but he smiles again when I offer to meet another time

Y/N: if you don't mind cutting it a bit fine with french... you could walk me to my classroom?

Nick: of course!

He looks so excited, like a cuddly golden retriever who's just been told it's time to go on a walk

I cant help but smile as well, he's just one of those people who spreads their emotions to everyone within a ten metre radius

Y/N: i thinkkk it's this way- cmon

Nick: ohhh you might be in the classroom next to mine then

Y/N: isn't there like a window between the classrooms in there?

Nick: there definitely used to be. If it's still there maybe we could communicate in sign language through the window!

Y/N: I'd probably be better at sign language than french to be honest

He laughed and looked down at me, locking eyes with him felt like blocking out everything else in the world
Fifteen minutes later and I'm sat down in a stone cold classroom, with my french teacher talking about the wonder that is the Louvre. Cant say I care an awful lot.

All of a sudden there's a tap at the window between the classrooms, I look up and it's, of course, nick Nelson.
Nick mouths 'hi'

I cant help but blush as I see that cheeky smile through the glass

'Hi' i mouth back, with a discreet wave

Nick points to his teacher and then pretends to be asleep. I nod my head to signify my teacher was also just about as dull as dull can get.

Class continues with me and Nick occasionally making faces at eachother through the window, then trying not to laugh and get caught. When the bell finally rings nick points to the door and mouths 'meet me' I nod and pack my stuff up off the desk.

Nick: that, was so mind numbingly, brain achingly boring, I think I might just explode.

Y/N: tell me about it, if I hear one more word on the mona bloody Lisa, fists will be thrown.

Nick laughs at this... aww, he finds me funny

Nick: what're you blushing for hmm?

Y/N: nothing it's just a little... hot in here

Nick: really? I'm ok

He shrugs as he says this

Charlie: hi guyssssss

Y/N: hey charlie! How was class?

Charlie: it was pretty bad, but me and tao sat next to eachother so it wasn't a TOTAL torture session

Y/N: I'll see you guys at break, I've got art next!

Charlie: see ya y/n! Have fun

Nick: I'll see you around y/n

Then he flashed me that sweet smile and I had to turn my already red face away
