Whelp, today's my first day of school. I'm pretty nervous due to the fact that I'm joining a new school, once again. I should be used to this because this isn't my first time transferring schools but, this is the first time that I've moved to a different state.

I've moved about 3 times in the last year. My dad was offered a job here in California. I hope we stay longer than a year.

I walked in to school with my favorite flannel, jeans and black converse.

I looked down at my schedule, looking down the page to find my locker number and the combo. When I turned around reading the top of the locker that was behind me, I knew it was gonna take me a few minutes to find it because I was in the hundreds.

When I managed to find it, I put my things in it as neatly as they can be.

If you have OCD, you'll know the struggles of always having things to be neat as possible.

I grabbed my bag, then closed it, glancing down my schedule once more until I found my first period.

The only thing that sucks about this school, they never gave me a tour of this place. They assumed that I was just another student who's been here. News flash, I'm new here.

I started looking around on the doors, looking for the room number, 348.

"Hey, are you new here?"

"Is it that obvious?"

"Well, I mean you look kinda confused, so I'm assuming that you're new."

I nodded. "Yeah, I am. They never gave me a tour around this place, they just handed me a schedule to do this on my own."

"Whats your first period class?"

"Uhm," I looked down my schedule once more reading the name. "Mr. Asshelmet??" I said in more of questioning tone because I wasn't sure if I pronounced it correct.

Who's last name is Asshelmet?

"Ooo, you're in luck. We have first period together. I'll be able to help you out more after his class since I have a free period."

"Sweet, okay thank you."

"You're welcome."

"I'm Sarah."

"Ava."

As we swapped names and began walking down the hallway, slowly, I just so happened to of looked off to my left, making really awkward eye contact with this total gorgeous guy.

"Who's that?" I asked tucking a small strain of hair behind my ear.

"Who? Him?" She asked as she looked towards him.

I nodded once more.

"That's Grayson. Grayson Dolan. Want my advice? Stay away from him, not only is he rude, he's a scumbag and nothing but, filth. He's one of the guys who sleeps around with the whole grade above us, then leaves them right after he's done."

"Oh, okay."

I didn't ask for your advice, but okay.

My smile began to fade away.

Ava and I both walked into first period together, we even sat together. Normal friend things.

But, when the bell rang, thats when Grayson walked in.

He's in this class.

What if he sits behind me?

What if he sits in front of me?

Scratch that, what if he tries talking to me and wants to hook up?

When class began, the teacher announced that our first class assignment would be partnered assignment and the worse part was that he was picking who we would be working with.

I didn't want to do any type of project with an "assigned partner." I don't know anyone here. The only person I know here is Ava but, I knew there wouldn't be chance of her and I being partnered up.

"Kyle and Stacey."

"Kimmy and Katie."

"Ava and Jarrod."

"Peyton and Brooke."

"Nathan and Lucas."

"Ethan and Elizabeth."

"Grayson and Sarah."

I looked at Ava, who looked annoying that I was paired up with him.

"Sarah, I know that you're new here and you probably don't even know Grayson but, this will be your chance to get close with others here. Also, welcome to Whitney High."

I nodded, with a small smile. "Thank you."

The teacher was still announcing the rest of the partners to the rest of the class but, his voice faded away because I stopped paying attention. Once he finished, he asked the class to begin the project.

Grayson moved over to my seat because I sat in the back. Meanwhile Ava moved up closer to Jarrod, not that she really wanted to.

"Hey, new-be."

"It's Sarah but, hi."

"Well Sarah, I'm Grayson if you didn't already know."

"I already knew that before I walked in the door."

He nodded. "So, this is how this is gonna go, you're gonna come over to my place and we're gonna finish this." He said in more of a demanding tone.

"Oh, really now?"

"Yeah."

"Well, alright fine." I said giving into him.

He wrote his number on the top of my paper, before the bell rang.

"Make sure you call or text me tonight, I need you digits, girl."

He said with a smirk. I began feeling my cheeks warming up.

"Okay." I flashed a small smile.
