After a lot of shoving, I made my way to Science. Right as I sat in the back, I remembered that Mark was in my class. I had ran into him a few times in the hall, but I never talked or looked at him.

"Hey. You're Alex, right?" he said as he sat next to me.

"Yeah....I'm shocked you remembered or that you cared." I retaliated.

"That's what friends do, right?" he asked uncertainly.

"I don't know. I've never had friends." I muttered.

"Well, then come home with me. I'd love to talk and get to know you better. Ok?" he asked in a polite tone.

I thought for a moment. My brain said No, don't do this. Once he find sout, he'll run like everyone else. I eventually said the word that would change forever.

"Ok."
