Tristen Packston

I started backing up in fear of what might happen next. Tristen smirked,"So I heard you were talking to Kassidy today. Care to explain?"

I looked at him and gathered all the courage I could," What's it to you. You seemed to have moved on."

He grabbed my shirt collar,"Oh so your a tough guy huh aren't you Wilson."

I gulped,"Nope."

He released my collar and shoved me up against the wall. "Now listen I never want to hear you talk to Kassidy or it will be the last thing you do got it Wilson."

I nodded my head in fear of what might happen if I don't. Then Tristen and his gang left. Tristen wasn't the type of person you wanted to mess with. He could mess you up in a split second. He's pretty much the alpha of this school and everyone else is the omega. Some of the teachers are even afraid of him.

He's around six feet tall and full of muscle. He's in football, basketball, and track. He's usually the MVP when ever he plays. And he has a decent taste in girls. Especially Kassidy. As soon as he was then out of sight I ran to my first class.

Science with Mr.Dockinburg. I entered the classroom and took my place at my assigned experiment area. And waited for class to start. About four minutes later the bell rang for first hour. As everyone files into the class Mr.Dockinburg begins to speak,"Mr.Wilson you will move seats next to our new student and help her catch up with what she has missed." He then points to my new assigned seat and I move seats.

I process through my head to see who might be joining us in our science class. As on cue, Kassidy walks through the door. Mr.Dockinburg points her towards the seat next to me and I try as hard as I can to not shift awkwardly. But it's not successful. She walks towards the desk sits down next to me and smiles,"Hi I'm Kassidy. And you are?" she offers her hand.

I just smile at her awkwardly. I then snap back into realisation,"Oh me I'm uh Noah....Noah Wilson." I shake her hand.

Then she looks at me curiously,"You look familiar, do I know you?"

I shake my head hoping she doesn't recognise me from earlier. Then right as if it were on cue,"Oh yeah you're the kid who bumped into me earlier at breakfast."

I try to act shocked, "Oh yea I remember you again I'm so sorry about that."

She laughs,"Oh it's fine it was my fault anyway I wasn't watching to see where I was going."

I look at her and she notices I'm staring. I blush,"Oh um...... how about we start at what you missed."

"That would be great. So um how much did I miss?" She questions me.

"Well since you just got here and it's February, you've missed a lot, honestly were almost done with book three of four, so we have a lot to go through." I truthfully tell her.

"Oh, yeah."She blushes.

I then look at her,"But if you want to stop by my dorm later I'm sure we get at least half way through book one."

She smiles,"Um yeah that would be good."

As time passes I talk to Kassidy about what she missed and how to do it. She actually seems quite interested in the topic of science. Which kind of shocks me she's a cheerleader after all. I honestly don't see how they would mix. It's like zero divided by zero there's just not an answer and it's practically impossible. I try contemplating this through my head but it just doesn't add up.

Then the bell rings,"See you later Noah." She tells me as she starts to stand up.

And me awkward Noah just waves. I grab my items and start heading towards my next class, art. I reach art and as usual I'm pretty much the first one there besides the teacher Mrs.Manola. Mrs.Manola is a young woman who's twenty-six, five foot five, just got married, has long rainbow hair, and someone who has a very creative personality. She walks over to me and gives me some clay.
