After Nathan walked me to class, and stood up to Matt for me, Matt hasn't bothered me all day. I'm starting to think he's bipolar. It's time for lunch, and I hope they have tater tots. I love tater tots. I head into the cafeteria, and grab a tray. I look at my options, and see that there's Pizza, sloppy joe, Apple, granola bars, and juice. Dang no Tater tots today. I grab a slice of pizza, an apple, and an orange juice, and place them on top of my tray. I walk over to a lunch table, and take my earphones, and phone out. I listen to music and eat and read at the same time, because I have no life. I see a shadow, and see someone sit down next to me. I look to the side and find that it was Nathan. He sends me a smile, and I give him one back.

"Hey. What are you doing?" He asks me.

"I'm reading, listening to Music, and eating all at the same time"

"What are you listening to?"

"I'm listening to Melanie Martinez"

"Is she that singer who always makes those weird music videos... She sang something about a dollhouse?"

"Yes, that's her, And by the way to you , her videos may seem weird , but to me and others we think it's Amazing and Creative. Plus they all tell stories"

"And what's the story"

"Look it up" I say taking a bite out of my pizza.

"Why can't you just tell me?"

"Because explaining the story is too much work, and I want to eat" I say.

He laughs at me, and starts eating his food.
"Your weird"

"Is that a bad thing?" I ask him.

"Not at all. I like goofy girls" he says smiling at me. I blush and look down at my food.

"You look cute when you blush" Fudge nipples now he's got me blushing even more.

I let out an awkward cough, and move a strand of hair behind my ear. "So um, how's your first day going?" I tell him stopping my music.

"It's alright. The classes, and teachers aren't so bad, but The people at this school are jerks"

"Tell me about it."

"What they're doing to you is wrong. I hate seeing you get hurt" He tells me grabbing my hand. I look down at our hands, and I feel sparks run through my body. I just met him like 2 days ago what is this?

"Yeah, but it's okay. So, am I the only person you've talked to so far?"I say wanting to change the subject about my bullying.

"I talked to a few of the jocks over there. They Asked me to sit with them, but I told them I'd rather hang out with you"

"Why? don't you want to be popular?" I let out a laugh.

"No, I think being popular is overrated"

"We are going to be great friends" he laughs, and I laugh along with him. I realize that our hands are still touching, I look at our hands, and his eyes follow my gaze.We look into each others eyes, and his eyes look at my lips. My heart begins to beat fast, and I somehow can't breathe. Is he going to make a move on me? I'm not ready! I've never kissed anyone, I've never even been in a relationship before.

He blinks and removes his hand away from mine somehow getting nervous. Oh no, did I do something wrong?

"Um, what just Happened? Did I do something wrong?" I feel completely humiliated!
