It was a cold day in December, wind was blowing the dried up leaves around the school yard.

Josh, being a new kid and all, had trouble finding his classes. He kept worrying what people would think of him. He repeatedly fixed his hair and tried to make his anxiety go away. But what made him the most anxious is that he was a closeted gay boy.

He kept thinking "What if I accidentally out myself to the school?" or "What if they are homophobic?" But he just kept walking, struggling on where he should go.

"Finally!" He thought when he arrived at class. As soon as he walked in, all the other students just stared at him as he walked to his seat.

The Science teacher, Mr.Korru, didn't really care that he had a new student. He told them to just work on some worksheets the whole class. As soon as Mr.Korru fell asleep, out went everyone's phones. Josh thought that he should look around and see if he could be friends with anyone. He then spotted one of the popular boys in his class.He was very tall and had short black hair.Josh instantly fell in love with him. He couldn't stop thinking about him the whole class. He knew he felt the need to know his name, but he was too shy to ask.

"Hello?" Said a girl as she waved her hand in front of him. "Uh... hi" said Josh. "Sorry, it just looked like you were paralyzed hahaha. My name's Krissy, nice to meet you" They shook hands very awkwardly. "H-hi, I'm Josh." He kept thinking "Oh my god, this is your chance. Come on, try not to be a total loser, Josh"

The bell then rang, letting it's awful sound free. "Well, I have to go, I hope we can see each other again" Krissy said as she picked up her stuff and left to the next class.
