My next class which was Health was pretty boring so I didn't really pay attention to what was happening.

All I kept thinking about was that after this we get a 10 minute break.

Thank god.

When the periods over, I check my phone only to see:

GROUP CHAT

Vania: Fam where are u guys.

Vania: Hurry up omg I'm in front of the library 

Raina: I'm coming

I was lost.

I literally had no idea where to go and had no clue where the library was.

Aren't there supposed to be people helping us and showing us where to go?

At least that's what they said in orientation.

I decide to just follow the pack of freshman and see where that takes me.

When I finally get to my friends we get to talk for only about two minutes because by the time I got there, it was time for the next period.

Great, time to get lost again.

When I make it to the math classroom, I see that most of the seats were taken so I just sit in the back.

I like being in the back, farthest away from the teacher.

I see that she is handing out a worksheet.

Already?

I mean it's the first day it's not like we've been doing math all summer.

I start to work on it only to find out that it was surprisingly easy since it was a review from last year.

I was pretty focused on it until someone opens the door.

The bell had already rung by the time the person entered.

Of course it's him.

Calum Hood.

Late on the first day of math class.

Inconveniently for me, the only seat left was next to me.

"Excuse me what's you're name?" The teacher asks

"My names Calum." He replies

"Okay Calum I won't mark you late this time but next time I will. Go ahead and have a seat."

He sits next to me.

I put my hood up and put my headphones in so hopefully he wouldn't talk to me.

And that's when I feel a tap on my arm.

God damn it.

Already?

"Yes?" I ask

He says something.

I can't hear it over my headphones.

"Sorry what?" I say while pausing my music

"It's okay um what are we supposed to be doing?" He asks

"Worksheet. Front and back." I reply

"Okay thanks."

I turn my music back on.

I hear a muffled sound.

I look to my right to see that he is talking to me.

I take my headphones out and say,

"What?"

"What are you listening to?" He asks

First of all, why does he care?

Second of all, it's not like I'm not proud of my music taste it's just.. Not something I'd like to share with everyone.

"Um something. Why do you care?"

"I-I don't, I just like the singer and I have it on my playlist too."

"Oh wow okay."

"Yea his music is one of my favorites like...*names songs*"

"Uhuh yea of course."

I was one of those people who just listened to a couple songs but still say I'm a fan oops.

"Okay actually I only have like three of his songs." I admit

"What the hell, you should listen to-"

He was interrupted by the teacher when she says,

"Okay now we're gonna go over the front side of the worksheet, I hope you have all finished that part."

"We'll continue later." He whispers

What the hell?

Continue?

Who says I want to talk to him again?

Sigh this is too much.

I continue on with my day still thinking about him and what happened.

I am honestly not sure how to feel.

He was attractive, yes, but I just couldn't get his voice out of my mind.

What did he mean by, "We'll continue later?"

Did it mean that he wants to talk to me more?

Or maybe I'm just overthinking this all and he just liked the singer and that was all.

I overthink a lot of things.

When it's finally lunch time I immediately pull Vania aside and tell her about it.

All she says is,

"Bruh. Marry him. He's the one."

Can I even trust him I mean he's a fuckboy.

The rest of the day goes by pretty quickly and I text the chat about what happened.

GROUP CHAT

Arianna: Pics. now.

Mikaila: Don't you think if I had pics I would send them?

Hiram: Ha sucks to not be here to see Mikailas first high school bf huh Ari 

Vania: Looool

Arianna: Whatever at least I get to sleep more

Mikaila: HES NOT MY BOYFRIEND WTF

Well this does not help at all with my situation.

It's not like I'd ever like him or want to date him.

Plus from what I've seen so far, he's always surrounded by other girls anyways, how would I even get to talk to him outside of math class?

I don't even want to anyways,

Or do I?

No, no I don't.

I barely even talked to him how should I know anyways.

I'm gonna try my best to stay away from him.

But there's always tomorrow to screw things up.

{Heyy guys this chapter was shorter than the others but yea calum is such a fuckboy soo enjoy that as much as I am lol}
