"Hey what are you doing on the floor? are you okay?" looking up with a glare I noticed a cute handsome boy about 5'9 standing above me looking at me with concern in his emerald green eyes. He has shaggy black hair which looked as if he been running his hand through and pink lips. looking down from his lips I noticed he was wearing black jeans, a white shirt making his muscles bulge out and black blazer and he was also wearing white sneakers.
'he looked cute and hot'
too consumed in my thoughts I didnt notice that i just checked him out right infront off him and now he has a full blown smirk on his lips.
'God! can this get anymore embarrassing.'
Flushed from embarrassment I quickly covered it up by flashing him a sickly sweet smile.
"ohh yeah i'm perfectly fine! I just like to sit on the floor sometimes and scream as people pass by, you know its kinda of a hobby" I flashed him a sarcastic smile and groaned as the pain started increasing.
"ohh feisty! I like it" rolling my eyes at his behaviour I tried getting up only to fall back down again.
"here let me help you up" he offered me his hand but I brushed it off and tried standing up again this time with the help of the lockers by my side and succeeding.
"hey! seriously are you okay? I dont think you fell hard enough to make you scream" I tensed up at his question quickly thinking of a lie to get me out of this situation
"Umm.. n-no i'm f-ffine I' fell down the s-stairs yesterday and I-I fell on the same s-side now, so its just that y-yeah" I shuttered mentally begging him to buy my lie
"ohh you dont need to go the nurse do you?"
I vigorously shook my head as no if I go the nurse i'm pretty sure she'll see my scars and bruises I cant let anyone know about this. my dad will kill me if someone finds out.
"n-no i'm fine honestly! anyways I need to go and find my classes since i've already missed my first leason i cant afford to be late to the next one" with that being said I turned around limping to my next class as fast as I could but before I could reach the door he grabbed my wrist making me turn around I however flinch and stiffen at his touch. seeing my reaction he instantly let go mumbling an apology.
"its okay! I just dont like being touched by people" I muttered getting my breathing back to normal he frowned hearing this but thankfully let it go
"ohh okay! well I just wanted to know that are you new around here? I haven't really seen you around here before"
"y-yeah i'm new, just moved in yesterday"
"well in that case let me see your schedule maybe we have some classes together and I can show them to you" he wiggled his eyebrow in a weird unhumanly way, I was too busy staring at his face confused as to how he did that 'thing' with his eyebrows, so he snatched the paper out my hand and started reading out aloud as if he was practising a script or something

"wow! all your classes are advance except from maths, your one smart girl arnt you egghead" he grinned at me
I looked up at him weirdly did he just call me egghead?
"my name is Isabelle but I prefer people calling me ella" I shyly told him just to make him stop calling me 'egghead' but ofcourse I was wrong he puffed his chest out and pulled out his hand grinning like crazy
"hi egghead my name is Ace"
I looked at his hand then at him and then raised an eyebrow while he frown until it clicked in his brain he pulled back his hand and rubbed the back of his head while smiling sheepishly
"dont like to be touched, yeah sorry" he muttered more to himself than me
"arnt you the brightest crayon in the box" I whispered thankfully he didnt hear me.
"well fortunately we both have maths together so come on, let me show you the way" I followed him quietly like a lost puppy staring at his broad shoulders as he walked around the school like he owned the place.
Reaching the maths class Ace opened the door and walked in
"Mr. williams do you have a good reason as to why you are late to my class?" mr. smith who I assume is our maths teacher called Ace out. turning around and smirking at the teacher he came towards me ruffling my hair
"well sir, this little egghead couldn't find her way to class so you see I was helping her"
"very well, you can go and sit down"
walking to the end of the class making girls swoon over him, he went and sat down where two other boys were seated, one of them caught my eye caught my eye he was handsomely gorgeous, if thats even a word, he had blonde hair which were falling on his electrifying blue eyes he had an expressionless face and wore a black shirt which made his muscles bulge out, the shirt was clung to his torso it wasnt hard to figure out that he had a six pack underneath, and he wore a black blazer on top with black jeans and i bet even though I couldn't see his shoes they would also be black 'was he obsessed with black or something'
all his attire screamed "trouble" to me as if sensing someone's eyes on him he looked up and instantly caught my eye making my breath catch in my throat. I quickly looked away while his face remained the same expressionless. making a mental note to stay away from all three of them I turned my head towards the teacher who was shuffling through his pages with his glasses on the tip of his nose.
"why don't you tell us something about yourself?" mr.smith asked
"Ummm.. w-well my name is Isabella but I prefer being called ella, i-i'm 17 and just moved from c-california-a" I strutted out to the class wishing for this to just be over already. but like always luck was not by my side as mr.smith as asked
"what about your hobbies and interests?"
"she likes to sit on the floor and scream as people pass by" a voice suddenly yelled from the back making the whole class snicker while my cheeks burned from embarrassment but I kept looking down not daring to make contact with anyone.
"Ace, thats enough, why dont you go take a seat Ella, ohh and welcome to river west" said Mr.Smith with a nod of his head.
releasing a breath that i didnt know I was holding i quickly scurried away to an empty seat at the back trying not to trip on my way and make a joke out myself which I already kinda have. there was two empty seat one with mr.obsessed with black and one right at the end of the room an only chair. I chose that one, this way I wont have to interact with anyone, sitting down I took out my binder and pen as Mr.Smith started his lesson.

As the bell rang signaling the end of class I was the first one out of the door, deciding i'm going to spent my break in the library I took of on the misson to find the library in this massive hell hole. after about good 10mins aimless walk, I finally arrived at the library, it was Warm and cosy making me take off my coat and scarf, settling down at the end of the room with the latest newspaper in my hand I started circling the places which need someone to hire for work. I found a total of three places where I could work by the end of break. sighing in relief and deciding to check these places out today after school I made my way towards my next class.

when lunched rolled in, I headed towards the cafeteria to buy myself a sandwich deciding to eat it on my way back to library, as it was in opposite building. thankfully after almost 10mins of wait I managed to buy myslef a bbq sandwich and a bottle of water, keeping my head low I started walking towards the doors only to be stopped by a loud voice "egghead! why don't you come sit with us?" instantly the whole cafeteria went quite, 'how clique', still keeping my head low, I started walking towards their table and even managed to eavesdrop on some nearby tables where girls were trying to whisper but I could hear them easily
"who is she?"
"why did Ace ask her to sit with them? they never allow anyone to sit with them"
"omg! she's not even pretty"
"look at her clothes and hair, she looks like a complete freak"
'so much for staying invisible' i thought as I reached their table. I opened my mouth to say something but instantly closed it as Ace started speaking "nope, i'm not hearing any excuse, your sitting with us and thats final! now sit down before i force you" he said with mock anger. Sighing I slowly sat down and only then noticed the boy from maths class sitting there, I didnt had time to look at him then since I was to busy staring at certain boy, but now that I do look he was pretty good looking too. he had perfectly gelled hair and blue eyes but not as electrifying as his other friend though. slowly I sat down but kept my head low just as I was about to say hello to him a voice spoke from behind me "what the hell are you doing here?"
