I won't be updating a lot today because I'm sleeping over at my friends house😕 hope you enjoy!

Graces POV
     I was sitting in choir while Bella chatted with Natalie. I didn't really feel welcome in the conversation, so I kinda just stared off into space. I wonder what it will be like when I go to Jacobs house? Will we go in his room, or just be outside? Will his parents be there? Will another girl be there?! The bell interrupted my thoughts, so I got up and walked to my locker.

"Grace wait!" I hear Bella yell through the crowd.

"Yes?" I ask. I was being a little snobby, but I just couldn't wait till school was done.

"Wanna eat together?" She asks.

"Um I don't know. I might sit with with another friend that asks. You can join us though!" I say. I really wanted to sit by Aubree, just because I haven't seen her in a while and I wanted to talk with her.

"Oh, ok. I'll see you later then." Bella says, and walks away. I asked her to sit me, but I guess she didn't want to. I walk to my locker and only see Jacob. Mark must have gone to lunch already.

"Hey!" Jacob says, smiling. Omg his smile is so cute.

"Who's is?" He asks me. Oh shoot I just said that out loud.

"Huh?" I ask, pretending like it didn't happen.

"Oh, never mind. Who are you going to sit by at lunch?" He asks me.

"Umm... Aubree Mark and Brandon." I say. They're the original squad, so duh I'm going to sit by them.

"Oh. Do you mind if I sit by you? Joseph isn't in this lunch." He says. Our lunch is split up in group A and group B. I'm glad I'm group A, because that means I get to eat first! Hahaha, I'm such a fatty.

"Yeah, you can sit with us!" I say. I don't know why I say everything so enthusiastically.....

"Ok." He says. I grab my lunch and he grabs his, then we walk to lunch. When we get there, the lunch room was crowded! It was jam packed, and I thought there was going to be no room for me.

"Grace! Over here!" I hear Aubree call out my name. I run over to her, and see two spots saved. Except there right next to each other!"

"Aubree, come here." I say, pulling on Aubree's hair and bringing her to a random corner of the lunch room.

"Why would you save him a spot right next to me!" I say.

"Cause I knew you would like it!" She says with a smirk.

"Wait? How did you know Jacob was going to sit by us anyway?!" I ask.

"I just knew. I can read minds!" Aubree says, which makes me laugh.

"Whatever. Let's go eat some food!" I say, causing Aubree to laugh. Me and her go and sit down at lunch, and that Connor guy was there. Ugh. At the end of the table was Aubree, then me, then Jacob. On the other side it was Brandon, then Connor.

"Where did Mark go?" I ask.

"He went to go sit next to other people. I don't think he wanted to sit by me..." Connor says. I wanted to say "I wasn't asking you!" but I didn't. I start eating my lunch and Aubree whispers something in my ear.

"What?" I ask her.

"I said that you should talk to Jacob!" She said.

"Oh. Um I guess...." I say. Usually he talks to me first, so it was really weird starting the conversation.

"So, I'm excited to come over after school." I say. He looks over at me and smiles. Ugh, he's so perfect.

"Yeah, I am too!" He said. Lunch goes on, until the bell rings.

"I'll see you later!" I say to Aubree.

"Bye!" She says. I walk away and see Bella and Natalie. I walk over to them because I had no one else to walk with.

"Hey!" I say. They ignore me and keep talking. I stand there for a little bit longer, waiting to see if they will reply. They just ignore me, so I walk away. Ugh, why is it impossible for me to make new friends?
