      Things are not going as bad as you thought they would. On the first day of school you got a lot of stares and one guy in particular had kinda watched you. You still don't know his name and you haven't seen him since that day.

It's been 2 months living with Pepper and Tony, getting over your parents death, trying to make friends at this new school. You have made 4 friends. Amelia Johnson, she was the first to come up and sit with you at lunch followed by three others who are now your friends. Amelia is a fandom girl obsessed with all that stuff. Then there's Jordan Pillar she's a tomboy mainly, pretty cool and all, she sort of reminds you of yourself in certain ways. Then there's Kyle Lewis the goofball of the group, biggest trouble maker and brings out the worst in you. You had to admit he was adorable though. Then last but certainly not least there was Asher Thomas, he always got you. That smile of his and his bright green eyes. He had a lovely charisma to him along with that he could get us out of any kind of trouble. He was the one with all the connections in our group, always got us into parties and everything. You've grown very close to all of them, they're your best friends.

     Asher clears his throat to gain everyone at his lunch table's attention. They all look at him laughing as Kyle mocks him from behind. "Attention, everyone I have news!" Asher exclaims a little to loudly causing people to give him death glares from other tables. Kyle mouths his words after him and points a finger up acting all presidential-like. "Kyle..." Asher scolds. Kyle stops dead in his tracks behind Asher, as he tries to tiptoe back to his chair. Asher smiles widely as he turns around and jumps on his back putting him in a headlock. "Gah-ah-help-y-Y/N-get-him-off-I-can't-breathe-" Kyle chokes out dramatically, Asher lets him go as Kyle drops to the floor. He lays there motionless as we all laugh he then stands up. "I'm glad I have friends to help me when Asher does finally decide to kill me. Y/n." He stares at me, scolding me. "Hey! What was I going to do? I'm the one who's handcuffed to the table!" I exclaim, raising my hands up to show him I'm handcuffed to the table. Asher, Kyle, Amelia, and Jordan all look at each other slyly.
"What was it anyways Asher? Also just a question...um why am I handcuffed to the table again?" I ask incredulously shaking my wrists. 
"No reason..." Kyle says in a sing song voice, that tells me he's hiding something.
"What I was going to say, is that tomorrow is Y/n's birthday!" He shouts as all my friends clap. "What does that have to do with the handcuffing?"

I smile slightly my friends had never announced my birthday like this at my old school. The four of them looked at each other hesitantly before Asher walked over to me. He stopped a foot in front of me as he sat down and Kyle stood up cautiously. Amelia and Jordan smiled as Amelia was practically shaking. Fear? Anxiety? Jordan smiled widely as they sat the seat opposite from me. "Uhm, guys....." I said, looking back over to Asher. He was staring at me a light pink shade spread across his cheeks. I turned back to look at Kyle, but before I could turn my full head towards him warm lips made contact with the side of my cheek and the corner of my mouth. I stayed in the exact position I was in not moving an inch, as his mouth was on my ear now. "Happy Birthday, Beautiful." Asher whispered into my ear my cheeks were blood red as I smiled slightly, I hurriedly tried to hide it but before I could.

"GOT IT!" Kyle yelled. The teachers and students were all looking at us now, Kyle sat down quickly far away from me though. Asher had moved too, which I hadn't noticed. Amelia started squealing uncontrollably as I finally realized why she was shaking. She was trying to not go into fangirl over load.
"I ship it! Yes! I knew you liked Asher! I could tell! The way you look at him! All the time! I can tell! I need to come up with a ship name! You guys are my OTP, and that's an honor coming from me! Gah! I ship you guys so hard you crash through the iceberg! She started squealing again bringing out her sketch pad. Jordan was laughing uncontrollably, clutching her stomach. I jerked my hands up forgetting I had handcuffs on them. I didn't care I kept jerking my wrists around in them hoping to break them. "Kyle! Delete it! Amelia I do not like Asher that's stupid." My face was still a light pink. Asher leaned over to look at the picture of me, I saw him give a small smile not realizing I had saw him. I turned to glare at Kyle. "Nope! It's going to be the last picture of you on our slide show at your birthday party!" I grunted, shaking my wrists more violently. "You guys know how much I hate people taking pictures of me!" I shouted again but not loud enough for other tables to hear us. "Yeah we know. We planned this Y/n, we all kinda got the vibe that you might have feelings for Asher. Obviously so we thought ya know him kissing your cheek and all would suffice for making you blush extremely." Jordan said cockily.
