The Player's Deal (#Wattys2016)

New Friends ! No.2

As I walk through those double doors my heart races wildly. I watch as the other kids already know each other. There are so many kids! I shakily walk down the hall looking down focusing on my school schedule. Maybe I'll bump into a cute guy! That happens right?! I am forced out of my thoughts when I bump into something hard OH MY GOSH MAYBE ITS A GU- I immediately notice when I look up that I bumped into a beautiful....locker, I hit a locker for crying out loud. I hear giggles from around me but honestly I didn't care much. I kept my head forward ignoring other's glances at me. When I made it to my first class I noticed a seat in the front row perfect ! As I charge in the direction of the seat it is quickly taken by another girl obviously just trying to upset me. I huff quietly and go to the back of the room choosing a desk there. I am seated next to two guys and they seem to already know each other. I overhear the tall boy say the other guy's name, Tristen, that was his name. They look over at me and give me a quick smile, I nod towards them recognizing their greeting. "Hi my name is Justin" the taller one said. "My name is-" the other guy started but I cut him off "Tristen?" I say with questioning confidence. "How'd you know?" He asked kinda weirded out "your friend, Justin, cannot whisper at all I heard your whole conversation" I say slightly amused "oh" Tristen replied looking down a bit flushed. "So what's your name?" Tristen looks at me. "Whitney Mitchell" I answer simply. After class the three of us went over to biology then to lunch. "So the teachers are pretty nice here" I say to while taking a bite of a chicken nugget "yea but they don't like me fore some reason" Justin says slightly sad but yet amused "Because you talk so loud!" Tristen says laughing which caused me to laugh. "So how old are you?" Tristen asks me "16" I reply. "Oh okay, Justin and I are both 17" he says in return. "So how do you know each other?" I ask the two "we grew up together since 6th grade" Justin tells me "oh that's cool" I reply. Next we had P.E. so I changed into my gym shorts and a t-shirt with the school's name on it "Gilburn High" is what it read. I'm actually pretty good with running and stuff so this should be easy. We stretched and then started our jog around the gym. Justin stopped midway because he was out of breath while Tristen and I continued with the other students. After we were done the three of us exchanged numbers and went our separate ways. When I got home I was overwhelmed with questions from my parents on how the day went "Did you make any friends?" "Did any boys hit on you??!" "How much homework do you have hun-" I cut my parents off, "School was good, I made two friends, and no the only thing hitting on me was a locker that I ran into.." I trailed off shaking my head at the fact that I thought it was a cute guy. "Well that's good hunny" my parents nodded in agreement "well if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go chill out in my room" I say walking up the stairs into my messy room. I push aside some dirty clothes and make my way to my bed. I lay down and start playing on Facebook 1 new friends request "Maybe it's Justin or Tristen?" I mumble opening the notification Tyler Aubrey? Who's this? As I research the mans page I don't help but notice his attractiveness. I also notice through my snooping that he goes to my school, he's a junior. Well if he goes to my school I guess I could add him back I think to myself as u click the "accept" button. He's REALLY cute...
