When Worlds Collide

The School Hallway

When I arrived at Greenfield High School for the school's project week the next morning,I was greeted by excited whispers and the stunned faces of students. My participation was a huge deal. after all, it wasn't every day that a world-famous singer visited a school.

On my first day, I walked into the large, sunlit courtyard, glancing around at the bustling students who tried not to stare too much. I smiled warmly as a few brave fans waved at me, and I waved back, feeling a sense of nostalgia for my own school days.

Just as I reached the main entrance, I nearly bumped into someone.A tall, athletic man with brown hair and a charming smile. He was wearing a Greenfield High athletic department t-shirt, and there was an easy confidence about him.

"Whoa, sorry about that," he said, flashing a grin. "You must be Taylor Swift."

I laughed softly. "Yeah, I guess that's me. And you are?"

"Coach Kelce," he replied, extending a hand. "I teach sports here, and I guess I'll be helping you get around this week."

For a moment, I found myself a little flustered. I wasn't expecting to meet anyone quite like him on my first day. He was attractive, yes, but there was something more, a kindness in his eyes that instantly put me at ease.

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Coach Kelce," I said, shaking his hand. "I'm looking forward to this week."

"Likewise," he replied, with a wink. "Greenfield's excited to have you."

As I walked away toward the office of the principal, I couldn't help but smile to myself. Maybe this week would be more interesting than I thought.

I knocked on the principal's door and finally opened it after he called me in. I stepped through the door, and he immediately rose from his chair and came towards me.

"It's nice to see you," he said, shaking my hand.

"Likewise," I said with a smile on my red lips.

"We spoke yesterday. I would now like to hand you over to Coach Kelce. He will be your contact person this week. I will call him now, and he will show you to the room you need to go to," he said, walking over to his desk where the microphone was, and began calling Coach Kelce.

We waited a bit, and then Coach Kelce came through the door.

"Coach Kelce," Mr. Parker said, "would you show Miss Swift to the room?" It wasn't a question but rather a request.

After he agreed, we left the office. Many students were waiting for me in the corridors. They didn't come too close as my bodyguards kept them back, but I waved to each of them.

"Okay, get ready for screaming students," he said, and I started to laugh. He opened the door, and I walked into the classroom. He wasn't wrong, it became very loud when I entered the room.

"Good morning," I greeted the students. "So, I think some of you may already know me. I'm Taylor Swift, and I will be leading a music project in your class for a week. I hope you're as excited as I am."

Everyone started clapping, and I first set down my guitar. "Since I don't know you all yet, it would be nice if you could place name tags on your desks. But don't worry, in two days, I'll know everyone's names."

"Do you have any questions for me?" I asked the students, and many hands went up. I called on Ava, the girl in the second row with brown hair.

"How did you come up with the idea to do something like this?" she asked.

I replied, "Well, actually, it was Tree, my assistant's idea, and I thought it was great, so she helped me with the organization." She smiled at me.

"Ethan, what's your question?" I asked the boy in the last row.
