At first I woke up not knowing where I was but then the events from the day before came flashing back to me. Plus today was suppose to be my first day at Cassidies and Peyton was taking me. I rolled out of bed and headed to the bathroom next to my room to take my daily morning shower. When I was finished with my shower I wrapped my towel around me and walked back to my room to find something to wear. Walking into my closet I went towards my jeans and grabbed the dark wash skinny jeans. I slid them on and headed to one of the dressers to find a shirt. I ended up with my dark blue tank top with a baby blue lace back. As always I laced up my neon orange high tops. I wanted to make a statement today. I pulled my hair back into a single braid and put on only a little mascara. I grabbed my shoulder bag and slid my laptop into it along with my school spiral and my personal journal. I headed downstairs to the kitchen just to find Peyton sitting at the bar talking with the boys. Chris noticed me first and decided to let everyone know of my presence.

"Hey Shawna you look ready for the day."

"Hey Sis. We were just on our way out. Have a good day at school." Nathan said with a knowing smile. what was that boy not telling me? I turned to Peyton as Nath pushed Chris towards the door and out of the room.

"Hey Peyton" I smiled. Peyton was wearing a lime green tshirt with dark wash jeans and black vans.

"Hi Shawna. you ready for your first day?" he questioned.

"ready as I will ever be."

"ok then lets head out." he said as he started walking toward the front door. I followed him out the door to see the truck was gone and there was a midnight black motorcycle in its place with two helmets.

"umm Peyton what the hell is that?" I stopped in my tracks.

"That would be our ride to school. Don't worry we wont wreck or anything plus school is only like 20 mins away." He said while pulling me towards it and handing me a navy blue helmet. I slid it on and he fastened it to where it wouldn't fall off and I would be safe. Peyton put on a black one that matched his motorcycle. He hopped on and patted the spot behind him. "how on earth could mom agree to this?" I thought to myself as I got onto the back of the motorcycle aka. death machine.

"Shawna you will have to hold onto my waist to keep from slipping off" Peyton stated. I slowly wrapped my arms around his waist and the motorcycle suddenly roared to life. I tightened my grip as Peyton started to drive off towards school and I could of swore I saw a small smile form on his face. As we were driving I could feel the muscles underneath his shirt and you could just tell he had a nice body. Not even twenty minutes later we were pulling into the parking lot of a huge building it looked to be about five stories high. Peyton parked the motorcycle and I slowly let go of him and tried to stand up not so sure about my balance. He stood up with no problem and took off his helmet and helped me with mine. He then set them on the motorcycle without a care in the world and started to walk off.

"Are you not afraid that someone is going to take those?" I questioned confused while scanning the parking lot.

"No Shawna I'm not afraid because if you didn't notice there is a chain-link fence around the school plus security patrols constantly." he laughed. I continued to scan the parking lot when I noticed a familiar midnight black 1970 challenger. "oh there is no fucking way he is here. why would he even be here?!" I thought all confused. Peyton noticed I stopped and looked around to see what I was looking at.

"That's a nice car isn't it?" he asked thinking I was just checking out the vehicle instead of having tons of memories from that day flashback into my mind. "maybe Nath was right." I thought but then I turned to Peyton and started walking to catch up with him while saying "you have no idea." Peyton took me to the front office to get my class schedule. I had acting 101(mr.brooks), choir(mrs.white), theater 101 (mr.smith) and dance 101(ms.berry) Peyton looked over my schedule "You have some good teachers. you will love Mrs.White she is the sweetest. We will have that class together and you can even sit with me and some of my friends at lunch. how does that sound?"
