Dan's POV
I walked into class, quietly. I was always shy, but today was different. It was my first day of highschool, 10th grade. I was petrified. I scan the room, and a girl with long, blondish brown hair catches my eye. She was very pretty. "Alrighty class, today we have a new student, Daniel Middleton. Introduce yourself, Daniel," the teacher said. I was nervous. "Hi um... my name is Daniel, but everyone usually calls me Dan," I say. I can't help but notice the pretty girl staring at me. Well, all the girls are staring at me. "What are your hobbies, Dan?" The teacher asks. "Well, I love to play video games, and I also like to draw and play the guitar," I explain. "Good, now why don't you take a seat," the teacher tells me. I scan the room for a seat and see one next to that cute girl. I walk over to her. "Can I sit here?" I ask her. "Sure," she answers. "Hi I'm Jemma," she introduces herself. I plop my books on the desk and sit down next to her. I smile. Jemma, I think to myself. What a pretty name.
*Timeskip To After Class*
"I'm sure Dan would like someone to show him around," the teacher says, "would someone like to be his tour guide?" She asks. All the girls raise their hands. Jemma smiles at me. "I choose..." I say, "Jemma." Rrriiinnnggg!!! That was the bell. Everyone rushes to leave. "You should've picked me," some girls whisper. I ignore them. Jemma takes my hand and escorts me out of homeroom. "What class do you have next?" She asks me. I have maths, ugh, I hate maths. I'm so bad at it. "Maths," I say, unenthusiastically. "Me too!" She exclaims. She glances over at my schedule. "We have all the same classes!!!" She shouts, a little to loud.
*Timeskip To Lunch*
Uh-oh. Where was I going to sit? I had just gotten my lunch, and had nowhere to sit. I looked around, and see Jemma gesturing me to come sit with her. She is sitting with a whole group of people. Uh-oh, I think to myself. Her friends probably won't accept me. I walk over to her. "Hi," I say, shyly. "Come sit," Jemma says and I sit across from her. "Hey, is this that new kid Dan you were talking about," one of Jemma's friends says. Uh-oh. "Yep," she answers. "He's really friendly, and he's a gamer" "What's the gamers code," someone asks me. Of course I know it, why wouldn't I. "Gamers don't die, they respawn!!" I shout. "Welcome to the club," someone says, and I smile. I actually have friends for once.
