I walked into my first period. It was math. Yep. The subject I hated the most I got put as first period. Such nice people right?

I sat down at an empty seat that was in the back of the classroom. I looked down at my notebook I had in my hands. This notebook is just my get away. I just have to open it and write down anything. I get lost in the words I'm able to put down on the piece of paper. And it's nice. It's almost like a mini vacation.

"Cristian Chavez?" Excuse me... What?

"Here!" Okay. So today is horrible. First, I have a horrifying dream. Second, I get a bad hair day. Third, I have math as first period. Fourth, Cristian is in here. What's next? I slip and fall on some spilled milk?!

"Mia Garcia?"

"Here!" I look around to see if any one is looking at me..... Yep they are. There's a couple boys looking my way. There pretty cute. They have those smirks on there faces that could just make you drop dead. Thank god I was sitting down, and still alive. But then again they look like trouble. Simply trouble. I don't need that. Pshh I don't need a boyfriend, end of story.

"Okay! Get you're math books out and a piece of paper! And find a partner! Let's do some math!" Wow she's happy for some math isn't she?

I look around to see if I know anyone in here. Yep I know no one... I'm sad.

"Hey" I hear this voice that could surely send a girl to a coma of how attractive it sounds. I look up to see Cristian.

"Hi?" What am I supposed to say?! Oh so when are you coming over? Well, I really don't want you to because... Well, I hate you with a passion!

"Can I be you're partner? I know you don't know any one... I just don't want you to work alone..." Hmmm.. What shall I say? Oh yes Cristian! Because you never ruined my life! And I certainly don't hate you! No not at all!!

"Sure.."

"Listen Mia I'm-"

"Is this why you wanted to be my partner? So you could apologize? If so don't even bother being my partner!" He makes me want to stab people.

"No.. I'm sorry. I mean.. I-"

"Whatever, just drop the apologizes already.." I would love for him to get on his hands and knees and say he's so deeply sorry. But I'd rather just not even begin to speak with him.

"Do you know how to do this?" He says looking at the math problems with a very confused look on his face. It's cute. But I can't like him... While I can like his face. But not the person he is.

"Yeah" I explain it all to him. Who then simply replies with a very loud oh. Which gets us glances from many people. He continues to do his math, which now makes so much more sense to him.

_*_*_

"Thanks Mia"

"For what?" Like what did I do?

"For not being a horrible person to me. I thought you would have. Considering the past..." He looked down at the floor with his hands in his pockets. We were now standing waiting for the bell to ring.

"No problem.." I don't know what to say.

"What's you're next class?" As he said these words he looked up from the floor he had been staring at moments ago. Wow is eyes. Brown with little hints of green and blue. So mesmerizing. I could just get lost in this moment. The moment of no problems between us. It seems like by the look in his eyes he's a different person.

"Mia?!"

"Oh umm..... It's um reading"

"Okay... Can I walk you there?" I'm looking down at the moment because I know if I look in his beautiful eyes. I just might fall over. And just die.
