"Marilyn wake up if you wanna get a ride." My brother James says knocking on the door. I groan and reach over grabbing my phone checking the time.

"Oh my- I only have 10 minutes!" I roll out of bed and face plant to the floor.
"Ow.." I jump up and open my closet door, grabbing the first thing I see. Black ripped jeans, white hoodie, black and white converse, with a leather jacket. As I try to squirm my way in to my skinny jeans I hear a car horn.

"Coming!!" I say with a mouth full of toothpaste. I shove my hairbrush and phone into my backpack and make my way down stairs to the kitchen to grab and apple. I shove the apple in my mouth biting it where I'm holding it with my teeth. Opening the car door with my one free hand and throw my bag. When I hear an ow from my neighbor Hale.

"Oops sorry!" Scowling at me he nods.

"Get in!" I get in the car and finish the rest of my apple on my way to school.

I get out of the car and see that everyones staring. Great it's a new school and I somehow already directed attention to myself. I shake my head and try to lose the thought. I make my way to the office to get my schedule. Ridgeway high school office, this must be it, I open the door and see teenagers scattered everywhere. I make my way through the teens and see a women at the front desk with glasses and was in her mid 40's.

"Name?" She lets out a sigh.

"Marylin." I say looking around the new office.

"No,Full name." she says in annoyance.

"Marylin Elizabeth Blade. " I direct my attention to her as she hands me my schedule and shoos me away with her hand. I walk out of the office staring at my classes.
Period 1- chemistry, teacher Ellis, room 210. Okay this shouldn't be as bad I like chemistry, I mean I'm no geek or anything but I'm sure I'll manage. Since I'm new I decided to look around and check some of my surroundings. I notice there are a lot of sharp corners. How does anyone not bump in to each other? I take one last glance at my schedule and look up.

"208...209... ah E-210." I mumble to myself. I walk in and there's tables that aren't separated desks. Well I'm sharing one I guess, I look at the desks and it has names. Great assigned seats. Well since I know that they're assigned maybe I'll give a longer look at the school. I pull out my phone and check the time 7:18. Damn a little early bell doesn't ring till 7:28. I start to rush towards the door. When I collide with something muscular. The impact of it made my bag drop to the ground and my belongings scatter everywhere. I scramble to try to pick everything up and as does he. We both reach for my phone.
"My bad" he says. I pull my hand back as I let him grab my phone picking myself up off the ground and standing up facing towards him.
"Uh I um sorry I wasn't looking where I was going." Why couldn't I talk? Maybe it's the fact that he's so gorgeous! Green eyes, brown hair, with muscular structure. He's perfe-. That train of thought stoped when his friends came rolling in.

"Hey come on dude lets go we gotta go check out the girls if you know what I mean." one of the boys laugh obnoxiously and giving one of the others a high five.

"Ahh alright found one you could mess around with nice, and what is your name madam?" He says leaning in.

"Yeah I'm going to go but sorry again." I say grabbing my phone from his hand and shoving past his three friends. As I'm a couple feet away I turn back and they're gone. Well maybe there's more guys be positive Marilyn. I keep walking until the minute bell rings, luckily I didn't walk far from my class so I just walked slowly back so I wasn't too early.
The final bell rang and that's when I walked through the door and made my way towards my seat near the window. My partner wasn't there yet but I did get a glance at his name tag. 'William.' Hmm so my guess is that its a guy. Hopefully he's cute.

"Alright Class" the teacher says entering the classroom.
"My name is Mrs. Ellis and this Is chemistry E-210 in case you're in the wrong classroom please che-" she gets interrupted when a freshman gets out of his seats and races toward the door. She breathes in a deep breath and then exhales.
"To start off your first assignment is to ask your neighbor fiv-" she gets interrupted once more by a knock on the door and lets out a sigh. The whole class giggles to themselves. She walks over to the door and opens it.
"Mr. Gray you're late." She says rolling her eyes in annoyance. My eyes widen as I recognize it was the guy I ran into earlier.
