Ella's POV

I wasn't sure why I came to school today, mom wasn't feeling the best and she needed someone to watch Paisley for her. I looked at the time, 12:48 pm. Just a few more hours and I could go home. The bell for lunch rang, I jumped up and walked as fast as I could to lunch, meeting up with my blonde bestfriend Daya.

"Hey El! How's mom doing today?" She asks me while wrapping her arms around me.

I hug her back. "She wasn't feeling good when I left but she insisted that I should go seeing it's Friday and break is coming up" I say.

"Yeah well are you staying at your house all of break or what?" She's asks.

"No. I think I'm actually going to go out and find a job. Gives me a reason to get out of the house" I laugh as we sit down at our regular lunch table.

Daya begins to laugh uncontrollably. "You don't need a job! Your dad is the richest person in the state!!" She laughs at me.

"Keep it down. Sam Laker might hear you and he will have some snarky reply to that" I laugh at her.

"Oh who gives a shit about what he thinks! He's an asshole anyways! Well to you, not to anyone else" She laughs her cute laugh then stand up. "I'm actually hungry today, I'm gonna get some lunch" she says as she walks towards the lunch line leaving me alone at our table.

"Awe, did princess rich girl lose all of her friends because she was too stuck up? I hear an annoying voice say behind me.

"Funny you say that, where's your friends?" I say while looking around."Oh wait.. you have none" my comeback took him by surprise.

He stood there in one spot, and didn't say anything.

"Move out of the way Laker, my friends are coming" I say as my friends Daya, Macy, Ava, Tori, and Miracle.

Sam just kept standing there, thinking of something to say. I smiled at him thinking about how I had won that war. He eventually walked away.

"What was that about?" Daya whispers.

I smile "Oh nothing, just me having great comebacks" I laugh and we continue to eat our lunch.

The bell for 6th hour had rung. An hour has already gone by so fast. I walk to 6th hour with Daya.

"I heard Mr. James is changing up the seating chart and if that's true, we won't be by eachother" Daya whined.

We walked into Mr. James' English class only to find out the rumor had been true, we were moving seats.

"Um, Ella Hanson, you are back right corner" Mr. James tells me.

I look back there and I couldn't believe my eyes. He had set me next too Sam Laker. You have got to be kidding me. I look back at Daya in a panic.

"You'll be fine" she mouths to me. I just shake my head and laugh at who she gets put by, Alison Ingrid, the schools smartest most annoying girl.

I take a seat next to Sam. "Well isn't this just fucking fabulous" he says sarcastically.

"Don't enjoy it to much" I say to him.

Mr. James starts to speak. "So I think I like this arrangement. I'm going to keep you just like this for the rest of the year, if you have a problem, please talk to me at the end of class." He says making us all groan.

"Alright settle down you kids. Get out your textbooks and read 108-130, then do the questions at the end. You may work with your table mate" he says and then sits down at his desk.
