start of our love

chapter 1

HOLLY'S POV

School is starting, but I didn't want to finish summer yet. Of course , I had no choice but to go along with it .

So here I am shopping for a new backpack.

" Jansport or Hawk ?" my best friend haley asked, holding up a bog of each.

" Well, I'm not sure," I said. " Maybe Jansport ?" Haley rolled her eyes.

" That was the trending bag in your old school. It's time for a new start." She tossed me a pink Hawk bag. I held it up and inspected it.

" I kinda prefer a blue color. I'll go look for one," I handed the bag back to her. She nodded and gestured at a rack of assorted Hawk bags.

I walked over, scrunching my nose as i scanned the bags. Haey was right - it was time for a new start .

I moved in to a new town this summer. I met Haley , and she was the best. I do miss my old town, but I'm trying to look forward to my new school.

"AHA!" I cried, as I spotted a cute blue Hawke bag with a single star on it. " Perfect!"

I grabbed it, but it wouldn't budge. Frowning, I pulled harder. But it resisted me.

"HEY!" I yelled . " WHAT IS THE-----" I gasped as the bag stopped resisting, making me fall back. I landed on my butt.

" Ow...." I complained , rubbing my back. It felt sore.

" Hey,you okay ?" A voiced asked.

" NO! I just fell! What do you----" I got cut off when someone pulled me up.

I whirled around to face the boy who helped me. " Uh, thanks."

A pair of brown eyes blinked back at me. " No prob. I grabbed the bag at the other end. When I let go, I heard you crash ."

I gaped at him. " You were the one at the other end ?"

He blushed and looked down,his black hair covering his eyes. " Uh, yeah. Sorry 'bout that. I sorta thought the bag was stuck or something."

I tried to peer into his eyes,but I had to look up because he was so tall. " Don't worry.I thought the same." Bothof us stifled a giggle. His laugh was cute.

"Anyway, you can keep it," I told him. " Plenty more bags around here!" I walked away before he could react. I really wanted to get as far away as possible from the place where I was embarrassed .

I swear , there were so many people watching me I thought I was gonna melt. 

I wandered around, looking for a bag, when my phone buzzed . I flipped it open. Haley had texted.

" Hey, girl, where are you? Like, your BF just gave me your bag. Come on" WHAT?!

I replied." What BF ? What bag?"

She replied, " DUH, your boyfriend! He gave me your bag. You know, the blue Hawk one with the star on it? He said he already paid for it"

I texted, " I DONT HAVE A BOYFRIEND!"

She said, " Then who is that guy?"

I didn't know how to reply that.
