(Claudia's Point of view)

I woke up the next morning after having that weird conversation last night with Trace. I am going to have to get Angel back for giving his friend my number >=D Anyway, I got into the shower and got dressed. I wore my usual black skinny jeans and my black sweatshirt. I threw on a black and neon green hat on this time to match my neon green undershirt and shoes to match. I grabbed my bag and started my walk to school. As I was walking to school i heard the revving of a motorcycle behind me. I turned around and saw a guy sitting on his motorcycle. He took off his helmet to reveal none other than Trace. I sighed and turned around, not wanting to start my day off even more annoyed. "hey beautiful! want a ride to school?" i heard him yell behind me.he started to move the bike so it was coasting next to me. "No thanks, I would rather walk. Also you kind of look like a pedophile just riding next to me." i said. "haha not really, i look like a gentleman who wants to give his fair maiden a ride to the ball" he said and winked. I tried not to laugh and shook my head and kept walking. I heard him just sigh and and put on the helmet. He flicked the shield on it up so I could see his eyes. "Alright then, see you in history, oh and do you want to know a fun fact about me?" he asked. "sure" i said, kind of interested in what he wants to share with me. "Well everyday I make a goal for myself, and today that goal is to steal you're hat off you're head so I can see that pretty little face of your's" and he winked and pushed the shield over his eyes and drove off. My whole face paled at this thought... He's going to try and take off my hat.. in public! everyone will see my ears! oh crap... this is going to be a long day...

All the classes and lunch went by in a blur. I couldn't think of anything,but the fact I had to sit next to Trace in my last class. The bell rang signaling the last class of the day is about to start, history. I went in and sat down at my usual seat in the back. About a minute later Trace came in and took his seat next to mine. He turned to me and smirked. As the teacher started to talk he once again turned to me and mouthed the words ' I'm getting that hat...' and he turned back to the front to look at the teacher. Luckily he turned because I felt my whole face pale yet again.Sometime in the middle of class I was freaking out, when is he going to do it!? the suspense is killing me! And as if on que I felt him grab the rim of my hat and start to pull it off...

I slammed both my hands on my head really fast so he could not succeed in yanking it off. Also in the process slamming my elbows on the table making a big 'bang' sound. "darn" I heard him mutter under is breath. I sighed in relief and looked up. That's when I realized the teacher was staring at me and most of the students as well, probably from the loud 'bang' I just made. I smiled sheepishly at the teacher. "Is there something you would like to tell the class Ms. Jackson?" Mr.Anders asked me. Ugh crap... "nope" I said and smiled. He just shook his head and turned around to continue teaching, not wanting to even bother with me today. When everyone turned back around I hit Trace on the back of the head, not hard though. "thanks for getting me into trouble" i grumbled to him. "No problem cupcake!" he whispered cheerfully. A few minutes later i felt my chair get pulled right next to him yet again. Does he have to do this every class? I tried to scoot my chair away,but he held a firm grip on the side of my chair, preventing me from even moving an inch. Eventually I just gave up and sat there, ignoring the stupid grin on his face because he won this battle.

Ring!!!

The bell of the final day went off. Its Friday and that means no more Trace for the weekend! wohhooo!!! i grabbed my stuff and bolted out of the school. As usual I said goodbye to Angel before my walk home. This was going to be a boring weekend because I can't have Angel over because she is going to her Grandmother's house this weekend. As I was walking home I heard footsteps running behind me. I wasn't really worried because it sounded like they were just going to run past me. That was until i felt my hat get yanked off of my head...

Luckily I had my backup plan that was meant for class if he was able to steal my hat. Before he had time to come to a complete stop and turn around I had pulled the hood of my sweatshirt over my head. I watched as he turned around, when he saw the hood his face fell into complete disappointment. then it quickly changed and that stupid smirk once again appeared on his face. "Fine, you win this round, but I will get that hat off of you and see what you fully look like, and that sweatshirt too while I'm at it." He tossed me my hat back and walked off into a different direction to what I'm guessing is where his house is. He's right though, he will see what I fully look like if he does, so I can't let him do it. I continued my walk home and went inside. I did all of my homework and talked to Angel for a little while before she headed off to her Grandma's house. That was when i heard my phone ring...

I'm guessing it's my mother as she is one of few people who call. I picked up the phone and was right, it was her. We talked for a few minutes about how things were going, but I knew something else was up. My mom doesn't really like to call, only when she feels it's neccesary. I knew I was right when I heard her say, "Claudia I have something to tell you..." she said cautiously as though I would attack her from where I was. Which if she was here I would have done that when I heard her next words. "I don't trust you home alone, so I am having my best friend's son live with you, he will probably be there in a few hours, she says he's very nice... I hope you like him, his name is

Trace."
