"Isabella Benson you better start paying attention to class in stead of to your boyfriend." Mr. Green snapped, making me look up in annoyance.
"He's not my fûcking boyfriend." I groaned, why did all my teachers always assume Calum was my boyfriend, when in fact, he was just my friend.
"He sure looks like he is." Green replied, "now pay attention to me, you can talk to Calum after class."
"He needs attention, kinky." Calum whispered, making me giggle.
"Why do they always assume we're dating." I sighed, my head was leaning against Calum's shoulder again, see if I give a fuck about what Green thought.
"They're old school, Isa, they will never understand how a boy and a girl can be just friends." Calum chuckled.
"I know, but it's annoying." I simply replied.
"Do you have free period after this?" Calum asked, changing the subject.
"No, Cal, I have math." I lied, I had free period but I was not planning on spending it with Calum, yes he was my best friend but he could be annoying sometimes and I was not in the mood to sit and listen to stories about his band and soccer all the time.
"Oh, okay." Calum replied, letting out a bored sigh.
After another 20 minutes of making homework and listening to Calum's super boring stories, I felt relieved when the sound of the zoomer filled the classroom, telling me I could leave.
"Have fun at math." Calum smiled, as he walked past me.
"What do you-" I started but the remembered the lie I told him, "- right, thanks."
"No problem Isa." Calum smiled, before walking off.
I smiled at him and turned around, facing the cafeteria, but bumped into someone who was standing there.
"what the fuck! Can't you watch out?" I snapped at the person standing in front of me.
"Someone's got a temper." a curly haired boy laughed, he was bending down to pick up the papers he dropped, he didn't seem to be bothered that much.
"I just don't like people randomly bumping into me." I said, rolling my eyes. The boy got back up and put his papers under his arm before looking up to me. I had never seen his face before, he had hazel eyes, curly hair and a cute smile tugging on his lips. The boy was wearing a nirvana tank top, black skinnies and black shoes. Yes, I was checking him out.
"So, what's your name?" I asked, smiling up at the boy.
"Ashton." the boy replied with a thick Australian accent, which I directly recognized since I had family from Australia.
"Nice to meet you, Ashton, I'm Isabella." I replied politely.
"Nice to meet you too, Isabella." Ashton grinned, shaking my hand.
"Are you from Australia?" I asked, even though I already knew the answer.
"Yeah, I am, how'd you know?" Ashton asked, sounding quite surprised.
"I recognized your accent." I shrugged.
"Ah, makes sense." Ashton replied and let out a small laugh.
"Yeah, what are you doing in New Zealand though?" I asked, wondering why an Australian boy would come to a school in NZ.
"We moved here about two weeks ago, my mom got a great job offer." Ashton smiled.
"Oh that's cool. At least you're still kind of close to your home country." I smiled. I would love to move but I would hate to be in a completely different timezone and far away from New Zealand. New Zealand was nice.
"Yeah. I miss my friends though." Ashton muttered, which I found adorable.
"I'm sure you'll make new friends here." I assured him.
"I hope so." Ashton chuckled lightly.
"Hey," I said and pushed his shoulder playfully, "you just made one!"
"Huh?" Ashton asked, slightly confused.
"Me, you idiot." I laughed, explaining what I meant.
Ashton's lips formed a perfect "o" finally getting what I meant, but his expression soon changed and a grin plastered on his face.
"Oh so we're friends, even though I bumped into you?" Ashton laughed, small crinkles forming around his eyes.
"Yea, I forgive you." I laughed, "come get lunch with me."
"Okay," Ashton replied and followed, not saying much else. He was nice, Ashton, and extremely attractive as well.
