I was still not getting over it on the next day. "Oh my what," breathed Jane next to me as we walked towards our math class.

"I know," I muttered. I hoped you could really go through X-Factor. I never knew anyone with autism could react or even perform in front of a whole crowd.

"One thing I'm really worried about," said Jane, her face clouded, "is that Harry could never cope with pressure properly." Oh god, I didn't want to know about it. But I had to. Because I would be there for you. I knew I would. When we stepped into the classroom, a small crowd in the back died down. I glanced up, only seeing Wesley sitting in the middle of the crowd, his eyes searching with a smirk. As I got closer, no matter how hard I tried to ignore it, I caught him biting his lips, his fingers touching his rose lips. I blushed, following Jane to our seats.

"Right, settle down everyone," Mrs. Smiths had finally arrived, "we are going to start our lesson soon..." Her words were interrupted. A tall boy with dark hair had arrived behind Mrs. Smiths. His eyes were a shade of sea green and his thin lips twisted upward in an embarrassed smile.

"Oh my god," I heard a girl behind me whispered. Yes, that boy was really hot. But my heart was already taken, by the angel with little words.

"Ah, yes. Here's our new student. He's transfered from New York to England. Do we have any seat for Percy Jarman?"

We watched him walked across the classroom, his hand rubbing the back of his neck. A few girls sighed and I found it quite hard to resist the urge to laugh. I genuinely felt bad for Percy. Because soon, these girls would start following him around like what they did to Wesley. If you were here, I would be frankly doomed. Curiously, I watched Percy walked past the front row, his sea green eyes scanning through people. Was it just my own imagination or did his eyes linger upon Jane for a bit more than necessary?

"Fortunately for everyone," Mrs. Smiths cleared her throat, "the term will start with a small project." A wave of groaning and complains filled the classroom. "And I have already set up pairings for all of you." Jane pouted slightly, I swore I had caught Percy looking at her with a small smile. "Now, I will read out the names of the groups." I sighed, collecting my books and pencil case again.

"See you after the class then," I said miserably to Jane, who nodded back grimly.

"Percy and Klara, please."

"Nice, you're with the new hottie," Jane commented before I moved away. Though I doubted if he was interested in me at all. I dragged myself to Percy's seat and we smiled at each other like what strangers would do. Nothing special. Yet I noticed Percy's charm immediately. Almost taking people's breaths away, there was something about him. An admiring attitude towards him had rose in my chest. I had decided I would like him after all, perhaps like a sister to a brother.

"Wesley and Jane." At once, Jane started to whine and Wesley protested. My eyebrows shot up at the strange scene.

"But Mrs. Smithsssssss...."

"This is not gonna work!"

Mrs. Smiths completely ignored them. I met Percy's eyes and could see he was surprised too. I really wanted to know what had happened last term. Eventually, a muttering Jane and defeated Wesley began to find a seat together.
