No more hiding

First day

Felix's POV

I look up from my notebook as the classroom door opens and Taylor Knight walks into the room, looking as hot as ever. He's so perfect...his smile, hair, that jawline and body is just perfect but he's straight, so it'll never happen and even if he did like guys he wouldn't go for me, I'm quiet and he probably doesn't even know who I am.

Taylor looks at Miss Rose, "I am so sorry for nearly being late."

Miss Rose waves her hand dismissively, "It's fine, but don't make a habit out of it. Go sit down."

I watch Taylor go and sit down on the opposite side of the classroom. I can't believe he's in my history class, I never thought we'd have a class together. Why does he have to be so hot? It's not fair. I'm quickly snapped out of my thoughts when Miss Rose starts speaking about a history project, I love history but it's the first day and she's already giving us a project? I start doodling in the back of my notebook as Miss Rose starts listing off who will be working together for the project.

Miss Rose looks up as she says the finally pair, "The last pair will be Taylor Knight and Felix Jones."

My head snaps up immediately and I look across the room at Taylor. Oh my god, I'm actually gonna get to work with Taylor. I smile awkwardly at him and give a small wave which he returns.

                           At the end of class

At the end of class, I pack up my stuff and make my way out of class when Taylor comes over to me.

Taylor taps my shoulder, "Hey."

Don't freak out, I think to myself as I look at him.

Taylor rubs the back of his neck, "It's Felix, right?"

I nod and give an awkward smile, "Yeah that's my name."

Taylor looks just as awkward as me as he talks, "Well umm we've been paired up for that history project and I guess I thought we should exchange numbers, so we can arrange a day to start working on the project."

I raise an eyebrow and nod, "Oh umm yeah sure, I guess exchanging numbers would be smart."

Taylor hands me his phone, "Great, I'll text you at the end of day so we can arrange something because I don't get my schedule for football practice until after lunch."

I put my number in Taylor's phone and hand it back to him, "That's okay, I understand that you've got football as a priority since you're the quarterback and team captain."

Taylor gives me a small smile, "Thanks for understanding. See ya around."

I watch as Taylor walks away and I'm giddy on the inside from him talking to him, and from giving my number to him. God, I gotta stay cool and not let myself feel false hope.
