Is This Love?

Chapter 1: Well, That Was Unexpected

"I can't wait to meet cute guys!" Anastasia profusely exclaimed.
"Calm down" I said.

My friends, Anastasia, Tara, and Ammee and I were walking towards the entrance to North Apex High School. It wasn't at all what I expected high school to look like. You know, people practicing their cheer routine in the courtyard, a big fountain smack in the middle, guys skateboarding across benches (basically High School Musical). But, nope. It was just like middle school from what I saw so far. Just people gossiping about in their cliques.

"That's what you're excited for? Haha, well, I'm definitely excited to join art club." Tara said.
"Of course, Tara," Ammee said. "God knows you're the only one who can actually draw decently."
"True!" said Tara.

We all walked into the building. Anastasia and I had Biology 2 for home room, and Ammee and Tara had English. We all said our goodbye's and went our separate ways. "I wonder who else from middle school is also coming here," I started. "I really hope that anyone from the Selfies doesn't come." The Selfies were a "popular" group from our old school that always acted like they were on top. They treated everyone like total shit; even each other. There was this one girl, Deandra, who was absolutely the worst, and I really don't want to see her again.

"Katrina, relax. Even if some of them did come here, and they bothered you, I would totally kick their ass." Anastasia started to pound her right fist in her left palm. "Jesus Christ. You've been wanting to fight someone ever since the 6th grade." I stated. "Because it's fun!!" Anastasia said as we walked through the door. The class wasn't that hard to find, since it was pretty close to the entrance. I scanned the room to see if anyone from my old school was there. I noticed a few people from my 7th grade class, a few people from the morning announcements crew, and........Parker.

Holy shit.

"What's wrong?" Anastasia asked. I repeatedly tapped her arm and motioned my head in the direction Parker was sitting. "Holy shit." Anastasia said without emotion.

Parker was my crush from the 7th grade up until this summer. We were friends, kinda, until I told him that I liked him on the last day of eighth grade. He stared at me like a deer caught in headlights, and left to go home. Does he like me? Does he not? Was he surprised? I guess I'll never know. To this day I'm still figuring it out.

Anastasia and I took our seats on the far opposite side of where Parker was sitting. "What do I say to him?" I said, panicked. "You say nothing! He's a total douchebag for leaving you in thin air like that! Shoot. Maybe I should be jumping him this year." Anastasia then got into her fight mode. I looked over to him and he was talking to one of his friends, Christopher. I kept staring at him and noticed that his fashion game has glo'd up from last year. I really hope he doesn't notice me.

"Class! Take your seats!"

A middle-aged man walked into the room with a briefcase.

"I am your Biology 2 teacher, Mr. Voorhes, or you can just call me Mr. V. As you know your in this class because you took Biology 1 last year, and got credits for 10th grade. This class is an 11th grade class and it will...."

I totally zoned out. I could not stop thinking about Parker. How is he gonna react when he sees that I'm in his class. What will he say to me?

"Uhh...Miss? Your name and something you did over the summer?"

Everyone in the class stared at me, even Parker. Great.

I stood up and said, "My name's Katrina and I took ballet classes this summer."
"Nice," Mr.V said.

I could see Parker staring dead straight at me. I just wanted to go home. I cannot take this humiliation.
