I stood there. Looking up at the monstrosity of a building they called a high school. I took a deep breath and walked in, bumping into countless students. Then, I bumped straight into a boy. Me, of course, being me, fell on my bottom with a "oof!" But... So did he. I dropped all of my books. I sighed, prepared to be trampled but students and pick up dirty books. Then, he did something surprising, he and his friend picked up my books. The, the boy held out his hand. I grabbed it and he pulled me upright.
     "I- uh... T- Thanks." I mumbled. He smiled. "No prob. Um, I'm Zach, this is my bud Liam." He smiled, revealing braces on his dashing smile. He patted Liam's back. "H-Hi! Im Stacy!" I smiled. He pushed up the black frames on his blue-green eyes. "So, uh, are you new?" Liam asks, eyes me. "Actually... Yes! Yes I am. Do you know where room 203 is?" I ask. Zach smiles. "We have that class first period too! Walk with us?" He smiled. I nodded. Liam looked at Zach and smirked. "Ya know what? I need to go meet Corinne at her locker. Bye!" He said energetically, running off to meet up with a tall, blonde girl with big, ocean blue eyes. She smiled and they kissed, proceeding to walk hand in hand around a corner. Zach was smiling. He held out his arm. "Shall we?" He said playfully. I smiled and linked my arm with his. "We shall." I giggled.
      He led me to a room around the corner. "Here we are! Hurry, the bell is gonna ring soon." He said happily, walking in. I followed, Still dumbstruck by how adorkable he is. I found an empty seat next to a girl with short, dark brown hair. She had a welcoming smile. "Hi! Im Maddie, but people call me Dul!" She smiled. I smiled back. "Im Stacy, but people usually call me whatever they want." I said. She nodded, eying my outfit slightly. Sure, I was a bit or a pastel goth. I wore a pastel pink off-the-shoulder top with a skull and crossbones on it. I wore that with pre-ripped white jeans and black converse. I wore a matching pastel pink beanie and it had the saying, "what doesn't kill you, makes you wish you were dead." She seemed to lose interest in me. "S-Sorry... Music changes people, but not completely." I whisper.
     She looks back at me and smiles. "I'd say same. People call me an angel because I always talk my friends out of their constant depression. No one believes them because i look like I just came out of a rap battle." She giggled, motioning to her red flannel button up sort with black jeans and a grey beanie. She wore gold jewelry, tons of small gold chains hug around her neck and bracelets and bangles covered her wrists. I also caught a glimpse of an ankle tattoo. Oh how I wanted one of those. 
     We shook hands. "Drake and Pitbull. You?" She said. "Amity Affliction and Twenty One Pilots" i smiled. Yeah. She's my best friend now.

-=+=-ALMOST ONE SCHOOL YEAR LATER. SORRY NOT SORRY.-=+=-
     It was lunch now. Maddie and I were walking down the hall when Zach caught up to us. He was with Liam, Corinne and another boy. The boy had on almost an identical outfit to Maddie. "Hey Parker. Same outfit again..." Dul laughed. "We both have great taste." He smirked. I elbowed her. Parker was new and he  hung out with Zach a lot. We talked about her finally making a move. She nodded at me and turned to Parker. Then, she ran up to him, pulled his head down and kissed him. He was almost too tall, so she was on her tip-toes to barely touch his lips with hers. She let go. Parker said nothing and kissed her back. "Welp, there goes our plan. We had the same idea." Liam laughs. The new couple holds hands and smile like idiots. I giggle.
     We go outside to eat, sitting under a huge tree. "Mmmmm! My mom bought this new soda. Its so good!" Zach squealed. We laughed. "I know right!" Maddie and Parker smile. Liam and Corinne slipped away again... "never had it." I said simply. "Wanna try?" He asks casually. I know Ive only known them for about a year, but Zach was like my brother. Even though I still had the biggest crush on him. I shrug and take a sip from his bottle. "Ohhhhhhh! Zach and Stacy kissed!" Maddie and Parker laugh. "Huh?" We say, confused. "You two both put your lips on that bottle. So technically, you kissed!" Parker said in a baby voice. "Stop acting like 5 year olds. This is a kiss." Zach said, putting his lips on mine. I close my eyes. He tries pulling away, but comes back. The kiss doesn't break for about 6 seconds. He pulls away quickly. Im in shock, so are Maddie and Parker.
    Then, I kiss him again. "well, this is a great way to end a school year." Zach says, staring at my like a kid eying the latest toy. I giggle. "Yep. And the beginning of many more." I whisper.
