It was just another day at school I sat through the same boring classes with the same boring people at the same boring school.
I had a few friends. I mean, I knew everyone and everyone liked me that I knew of but I only considered a few of them my friends.
I was in Child Development class when the teacher announced that we were going to be doing a project in groups. As soon as she said the word "groups" My head darted towards my friend, Lina.
We smiled at each other and wiggled our brows.
"Nice try guys but you won't be choosing your partners this time." She said
Everyone huffed including myself.
"This is a project that you will be doing with someone you don't know." She continued to blab about the importance of teamwork and responsibility and how people need people.
I rolled my eyes and looked around the room.
I knew everyone.
I raised my hand, annoyed and she called on me.
"I know everyone here" I said
"Okay. What's her name?" She asked, pointing to a girl in the front row
"Remi Jakobson" I said
"Her" She pointed to another student
"Sadie Thomas" I sighed
"Him"
"Alex Reyes" I yawned
"Her"
"Christina Fernandez" I said
"Him" she pointed to a part of the room I had never looked in.
"Uh" I said, turning around to face with black haired boy.
He looked at everyone as if we were all dumb.
"I think you just found your partner" She smiled
Shut up hoe you're not a match maker.
I stared at the boy.
His eyes found me and his brown eyes pierced through my soul.
Why do I feel like I've never seen him?
Wait I have seen him.
He's the kid who wears shirts that are like 10 sizes smaller than him.
Oh god I have to do a project with this weirdo?
"You will spend as much time as you can with your partner. Go to each other's houses. Go to McDonald's. Go to the library. But in the end you must have material that is good enough to share. You get until the last day of school to do this. In the end you will explain how your relationship has progressed in the past year." She explained
I rolled my eyes.
"Now the rest of you come to me for your partners" She said
I wanted to wait for the kid to come to me but he wasn't showing any signs of moving.
I got up with my bag and set my stuff down next to him.
He seemed like he liked to be alone.
"What's your name?" I asked
He looked over at me like I was the most annoying person on the planet.
"Kevin." He said
"I'm Emma." I said
