The Bad Boy With Blue Eyes

Welcome To Chemistry

"So where'd you move from?" I wondered.

"Buffalo," Caylib answered.

"Ah, from the 'Big Apple' to little ole Pinedale," I winked. Wait...Did I just wink at him..?

"Yeah, it's pretty cold here!" Caylib observed.

"Tell me about it!" I laughed.

Before he could reply, the 8 AM bell rang.

"Good morning, Pinedale High School!" Our principal boomed over the intercom as students scrambled to finish homework.

Caylib fumbled nervously with his pencil.

I reached over and tapped his shoulder.

"It's fine Caylib, no one will notice you," I assured him.

"Okay, great," He smiled but I could see the panic remaining on his face.

After the morning announcements ended, everything went south.

"Attention class, we have a new student!" Mr. Wayan's announced.

Students continued to murmur to each other and do last minute homework.

"CLASS!!" Mr. Wayan's shouted and everyone froze. Except Caylib.

"Sorry Kat," He whispered.

"What?" I whispered in reply.

Caylib snatched his backpack of the floor and sprinted to the door. As he reached the table, a jock stuck out his foot and tripped Caylib.

Caylib gathered his scattered belongings as Mr. Wayan's said, "Excuse me, can you have a seat?"

Caylib rolled his eyes and ran out of the class, slamming the door behind him.

"Welcome to chemistry..." Mr. Wayan's mumbled awkwardly.
