I woke up to the annoying buzzing of my alarm signaling it was 7:30 a.m. Time to get ready to go to school though I don't really feel like it but apparently I have no other choice but to go. I got up to brush my teeth and take a quick shower; while I was in there I thought about yeasterday when Harry asked me out. Should I say yes? I don't really know him what if he's some kind of killer undercover? What if it's all a joke? Like a setup or something?What if something bad happens at the party? What if I get raped there by someone drunk? I mean yeah I've taken self defence classes at my old school but it couldn't hurt to think about it, right? I got out of the shower, wrapped a towel around my small body and went back to my room. I opened the closet and picked out some clothes. I chose to wear a black v-neck shirt, blue mini shorts and my black widge heels. I striaghten my hair and put some eye shadow and eyeliner on with my red lip gloss. I sprayed some perfume on and grabbed my bag so I can go down stairs to get some breakfest.
"Hey honey, eat so I can drop you off. I have to be at the office early today." my dad said putting my plate in front of me as I sit at the island.
"Why the rush all of a sudden?" I asked, curiosity clearly on my face as I look up from my nutella covered toast.
" Oh, Nothing bad. I've been trying to get promoted, so maybe it's about that." he explained.
" Oh. Well, good luck on the promotion." I said eating my last piece of toast.
" Thanks Jay." I was a little surprised when he called me 'Jay'. I haven't heard him call me that since I was little.
I got up to put my plate in the sink and got a cup to get some apple juice out of the fridge. I gulped it down, grabbed my bag and walked to the door where my dad was waiting on me.
We both got into the car and he started down the road towards the school. I looked out of the window making sure I remember everything because I can't wait until I start driving to school next week. My dad stopped at the drop-off spot and I got out getting my bag out as we said our 'good-byes'.

The first few hours went by quickly and now Chloe, Nathan, and I are at my locker which seems to be our meeting place from now on. So I started putting my books in my locker. I brought up the conversation when Harry asked me out after school yesterday. You should've seen their faces, if I didn't know they were being serious I would've laughed.
" Oh My God, please promise me you will not get involved with him." Chloe said, slightly scaring the hell out of me. "He's really dangerous and the kind of person no one should be around."
" Oh wow, he sounds like such a scary boy. So scary I'm shaking with fright." I say sarcastically while rolling my eyes and throwing my hands up in defense. "You know what, I'm going to see for myself if he's 'scary' or not, okay?"
" You shouldn't do that, he's been in a lot of bad things in his life. I don't think he's good for you." Chloe said worriedly.
"Yeah? What kind of dangerous things has he been in?" I asked challenging.
"Different kinds on things like drugs, fights, alcohol and other illegal things." Nathan said. Wow, that does sound pretty scary. Maybe I should see for myself. I thought to myself. Or so I thought I said in my head.
" NO! Jade, you can't do that," Nathan hissed."You can't go on that date with him."
" Why not?" I took a deep breathe. " Listen guys, this is my second day here and I don't won't to fight with you guys about some boy I recently met yesterday so can we just drop it and go on to lunch?"
"Yeah let's go, but this conversation isn't over!" Chloè said pointing her finger at me.
"Yes ma'am." I said while rolling my eyes.
