Chapter 4~ Meeting Quinn

"I thought this was a school, not a boot camp." I said. 

"This is not just a school, this is an academy,and to be quite honest, our principal is not the best. He could care less what we're doing." Zaria replied. 

We approached a strange, lonely looking guy. He was fooling around with something in his locker. 

He was a dark haired boy, with the brightest blue eyes. He had on one of those beanie hats, it was gray. He had thick, nerdy, black frame glasses. He was skinny, probably almost anorexic. He was wearing gray high tops shoes. He seemed sweet, but weird. I could be totally wrong though. And I was. 

"Yo slumbag!" Zaria called to him. He immediately looked up from what he was doing. 

I gave Zaria a nudge for being so rude. "What? He's used to it." She stated.

"Yeah?" He asked. 

"Help this girl and her locker troubles."  Zaria  said.

"I'm not havi-" I didn't get to finish before Zaria interrupted.

"Enjoy!" Zaria said. She walked away and before I could catch up she had disappeared in a crowd of 12th graders. 

I turned to see Quinn looking at me. He turned away and blushed. 

I approached my locker. 

"So.... you know Zaria." He said in a voice that I was not expecting. I was expecting a small, scrawny, geeky voice. But no, it was deep and masculine. 

"Uhmm, yeah." I replied nervously.

"Is something wrong? Did I scare you? To much talking? To soon? Did I talk to soon? Am I stuttering? Do I smell weird?" He asked nervously. 

"No, no you're fine!" I stated. He seemed really nervous for some reason. Is it some kind of thing people do here and I don't know about it? 

 "So what are you working on in there?" I asked. 

"Just a little thing I like to call my own customized computer." He said with a smile. I knew he felt proud of himself. 

"No way!! That's so cool!" I said. 

"Really?"  He asked scrunching his nose. 

"Yeah! I mean I couldn't do anything like that!" I said. "How did you learn how to do that kind of stuff, did you take a class or something?" I asked.

"Oh  no, no I guess nerd just runs in the family." He said with a smirk. 

"You don't even look like a nerd if you just take of the glasses." I said smiling. 

"What?" He asked unbelievably cute. 

Why was everything he was doing cute to me? Do I like him? Quinn? The school nerd? No... I couldn't. 

I attempted to open my locker again. Nothing. 

He looked over at me. Cute. Again. What's going on? Am I falling for a nerd? 

At the same time we both looked up. "Hey Quinn- I got  cut off.

"Do you need some help?" He asked. 

I smiled. "Yes please." 

"How do you know my name?" He said grabbing my paper. I must have been staring at him because he looked up and asked me again.

"Oh, uhm I, Zaria told me." I replied.

I was a fool. A total, complete  fool.

QUINN'S POV-

Wow she's gorgeous! Absolutely gorgeous! I wonder if she likes me. 

CHARLIE'S POV- 

I put my stuff in my locker. 

Should I ask him what he has first period? No. Yes. Urggg. Why was I having such a problem talking to him? 

"Wh-" I started.

He looked at me. 

The bell rang. He grabbed his bag and shut his locker. He stopped by me. "If you wanna say something you might want to now before the huge twelfth graders trample us." He said. 

"What do you uhm have first period?" I finally asked. 

"Tech class." He replied.

"Oh good me too!" I said relieved. 

We walked together not saying a word. 

When we got to the class I couldn't believe my eyes.
