"I guess we all got history next " Zay says. "Yeah I wonder with who?" I joke tapping my chin knowing it was the same answer every time. "Matthews!" We all say in unison laughing. "So.."the green eyed prince holding my hand said while twirling me. "So.." I say in a whisper as he twirls me into his chest. "Omg you guys are just like hazel and Gus!" Maggie gushes. "Who?" Matt and Tony say together confused. "You know the girl who is dying and she meets a boy who survived cancer and they fall in love but in the end he dies?" Sara said like it was no big thing. "Omg Sara thanks for spoiling it for me!" Missy told her lightly nudging her with her hip.

"Miss you knew that was going to happen we read the book and watched the movie. Together I might add." I giggle at her. She playfully winks at me and says "I know." I look at my boyfriend who has a confused look. "What?" I ask smiling at him. "Just one question how are Gracie and I like this Greg and Harriet characters?" Laughing at the way he completely managed to butcher their names I peck his cheek and tell him "you're to cute." Earning a wide grin to spread across his face. "Dude their names are hazel and Gus and it's cause you two say "so" all goofy like they say okay in the movie" Zay says digging through his locker. We all laugh and I look at my boyfriend and say "yeah dude" lightly punching him in the arm.

Oh shoot" I say looking through my books I forgot to grab my history book knowing I would have to walk to my locker. "Do you want me to come with you?" He asks giving me that smirk that said we weren't really going to look for that book. "Yeah I would love that" I say biting my lip playing with his fingers. "Oh no we will go with you Ri Ri" Missy quickly links our arms. "Okay.." I say slightly disappointed. "We have things to speak about " Maggie adds linking her arm with my other one.

I turn to him and he says "girl talk " making me giggle. He punches Zay and says "ZB why don't we do that?" "Cause dude we're man" Zay quips. "But if that's what you want we can do that" he smirks throwing his arm around him. Making us girls giggle and Matt and Tony to chuckle. "Okay let's go " Sara says. "Alas parting is such sweet sorrow, until we meet again " i say clutching his hand.  "Just know wherever you go my heart goes with you " he spoke in his Shakespearean voice kissing me. "Alright lovebirds stop grossing us out with your cuteness " Matt says laughing.

"Okay let's go Ri , say bye lover boy" the girls say together. Making him chuckle and wink before he walks into class. "Oh Ri Ri Zay was so right about you two." Missy states as we walk to my locker. "What are you talking about?" I ask tilting my head at her. "Oh you're too cute, what I mean is you haven't been able to wipe that smile off your face since you been with him." I think about it well him and smile wider. "Well I can't help it, I've never felt like this before. It's completely scary and exhilarating but in the best possible way."

They share a look and I ask "what?" Maggie speaks first and says "not even with he who shall remain nameless?" I laugh "guys he isn't Voldemort you can say his name in front of me. It's fine. Missy speaks first "so when you liked Lucas it never felt like this?" Sara adds "yeah was it different cause who they are or because who you are?" I smile closing my locker and say "neither with Lucas I think it was more a middle school crush I hope would turn into something but now with my Romeo"I sigh happily. "It's a feeling I can't describe it's like my senses are dialed to 1000 and I'm completely and incandescently happy." They all smile and before I could say anything Missy says "now we know you got it bad if you're quoting pride and prejudice."

Laughing I shrug my shoulders knowing they were right. It took me a year  before I could honestly say that I was. "Okay first day back to school sleepover at my place " Missy claps. "I might be a little late got the dinner and ice cream date with the augster then going to hang out with-" "we know we know" they say in unison cutting me off and laughing as we walk back to class.

"I can't believe she said our relationship was just a middle school crush" I think to myself. Trying not to get caught while eavesdropping on their conversation. I mean it meant something to me. "No it didn't or you wouldn't have screwed it up" my subconscious yells at me. "That's beside the point I'm going to win her back!" "Right and what about your blond beauty? Hmm what does she think of your plan?" She's out sick so she doesn't have a say in what I do." I think smugly. "Still an idiot if you ask me either I'm losing it or my subconscious sounds like Farkle.

"Okay class let's find our seats and-" I was admittedly cut off by my daughter walking in late. "Ms. Matthews, Bradford and Wilson thanks for gracing us with your presence. "No problem Mr. M, Maggie said curtsying. "Yeah yeah take your seat." "Now I think since you all are seniors and I know you all and shouldn't have to take roll but what the heck I'm the teacher I can do what I want." As I call of the names I get to one that I know will be a problem seeing as how he is currently starring at Riley. "Mr. Friar" I think."what is he doing? It's their senior year! damn it she's happy now."

"Daddy are you alright?" Riley whispers to me seeing as I was balling up the roll sheet. "Yes sweetheart, I think that third cup of coffee is kicking" I smile at her. "Let's continue Patrick Gibson " "the mighty Thor!" Zay, Matt and Tony all hi-five. Groaning Patrick looked at them saying "come on it's only the first day." "Yeah but come on everyone is going to be calling you that Thor " Zay laugh tossing a crumpled ball at him. Sighing Thor turns to Riley and says "Gracie you'll still call me Patrick right?"

Smiling and grabbing his hand she says "you'll always be Patrick to me " "thank you Gracie " he responds kissing her hand. Earning awws from their friends. "Alright so for..." glancing at Riley and Patrick who aren't paying attention and gazing at each other I smile and say. "Ahem would you two like to join the rest of the class?" Causing Riley to blush and Thor to chuckle. "Sorry Mr. M but honestly can you blame me look at her! She's gorgeous!" Further causing Riley to turn red.

I laugh and say "yes, moving on " I glance at Lucas who just rolls his eyes. "Oh boy this will be a long year." I think to myself.
