T!tle#@:Unkn@#n

Chapter 6

I had totally forgotten about the texts.

I received one in the morning that had woke me up, it was from Ryan, but it was hard to read. For some reason, he put a bunch of symbols in his writing.

He/y L::una, I wo%nt be h0@me  to:d&ay. So0@ry.

I shook it off and just figured that he was at his friend's house and it was just a stupid prank. I changed out of my "spy" clothes and just into some regular school clothes; jeans and a loony tunes shirt with sneakers.

As I grabbed my backpack i swiftly started walking out the door. I was late for my bus, which arrives in about 5 minutes.

As I was leaving, I caught a glimpse of my phone, which was blowing up with texts, but I didn't care. I can't walk to school, it's 7 blocks away!

I swiftly got to the bus stop in time. It only took a few minutes to get to my school, and in about 10 minutes, I had my school supplies and was in homeroom.

We took roll call first, which was almost always the same, except today, I heard a new name.

"Kyle Busch?"

"Here"

The voice that aroused in the room was shy and nerdy. I could tell that Kyle was a lot like me; cowardly and unnoticed.

After roll call, my teacher introduced us to Kyle.

"Class, this is Kyle Busch. He is new here, he moved here from New York. Everyone welcome him here, as he is not familiar with this setting"

The teacher swiftly looked at me.

"Now Luna, we found that Kyle had most of your classes, and since you are in the same homeroom, you will be showing him around for the next few days".

I instantly froze up. I very rarely even socialized with anyone at this school. I've always been, so afraid, that someone might figure out what my family does for a living. And now, showing a completely new kid around the entire school? I don't even know his personality! What if inside that shy, quirky voice is a confident and ignorant jock...

While all these worrying thoughts were going through my head, my teacher told Kyle a little bit about me: basically making us "friends" she told him that I was a good student and I listened, which I guess wasn't bad, but it could also make me talk to him more; him asking for help, which could totally hook us up...

Every little detail about these 10 minutes gave me miles of stress, until I focused back on Kyle and my teacher's conversation.

"Luna, Kyle, you will be leaving now, as you can get more done. I suggest you start with this wing, also know as the math wing, or just the west wing"

We both quietly muttered a 'thanks' as we left the room. Only halfway up the stairs, and Kyle was already trying to strike up a conversation.

He held out his hand. "Luna, was it? That's a pretty name." He said as I smiled at him, quietly refusing to shake his hand.

He pulled back to whisper to me, "hate to break it to you, but I always say that to girls. I'm not flirting with you". He said, which made him laugh and me giggle a bit.

The good thing was, Kyle didn't seem that bad. As I walked him through the math wing, he started conversations about how "smart" and "nerdy" I was, which he was as well. As we talked, I started to get louder and louder. I got more comfortable around Kyle as I realized we had a ton in common.

"This is room 236, our math room. Our teacher is Mrs.Chullber; you can just call her Mrs.C. Although, our classmates call her 'chill' "

We both laughed. "Actually, if she's not busy, we can go see her now. She doesn't have a homeroom to supervise"
