Skylar

"Sky, did you get your homework done?" My best friend, Kim, asked, even though she knows I'd never not do my homework.

"Of course. You didn't do yours did you?" I smile.

She rolls her eyes and snatches the paper out of my hand.

"Kim, are you going to the dance next week?" Chris walks up to us and throws his arm around Kim. I find something to look at besides them.

Chris has always been my crush since first grade. Unfortunately, Chris likes the louder, prettier girls like Kim. I guess I've always been sort of jealous of Kim and her looks and her popularity. I'm shy and only have a couple friends.

"Chris, I've had five other guys ask and I've been waiting on you." She kisses his lips and I cringe. I've never had someone kiss me nor have I kissed someone.

"Hey, Sky." Chris smiles at me. I gulp.

"Hi."

Luckily for me, Stacey runs to me with a huge grin, "new kid! And he's so hot."

"Yay!" Kim cheers.

I didn't get my hopes up because anytime I've thought someone was cute, they end up dating Kim or another girl.

"I'm going to class." I let out a breath, "I'll see you guys later."

Hayes

"Okay, here's your schedule. Reagan Murray is waiting outside the office to show you around." The polite principle says, "you'll enjoy it here, you really will."

"I hope. Thanks." I smile quickly before walking out to Reagan waiting on me.

"Hey, my name is Regan and you are Hayes?" She flips her hair and shakes my hand.

"Yeah." I bite my lip.

Skylar was much prettier than all of the girls I seen in the halls. I've been constantly prepped for this moment since I was five. I soon get nervous.

"That right there is Kim and Stacey and Chris." Reagan points out, "they have another friend, Skylar, but she's really shy and has probably already gone to class."

And that's who I'm looking for, "tell me about Skylar."

"Um okay. She's sixteen, I think, she has light brown hair and gray eyes. She's so smart and super sweet. That's all I really know." She shrugs, "here's your class."

I knew so much about Skylar. Her eyes weren't gray, for one, they were green. She was intelligent and so gorgeous but I could never love her.

"Thanks." I mutter, walking into the classroom right as the bell rang.

In the front seat sat someone who's light hair was in a braid. My girl.

I took a seat beside her, pretending not to notice her light eyes scan me.

"Are you new?" Her soft voice rings through my ears.

"Yes, I'm Hayes and you are?"

"Skylar." She mutters, putting her book away.

She was so beautiful and pure. She had no makeup and yet she was still the most gorgeous girl you'd ever see.

"Tell me about yourself." She demands so sweetly as her eyes widen in interest.

"My name is Hayes Grier. I'm seventeen. I have an older brother named Nash. I moved here from California." I lie.

She stares into my eyes and her breathing quickens a bit. Oh no.

"What are you thinking about?" I ask nervously as people flood in.

"Nothing." She shakes her head and turns her body towards the front of the room.

Great.
