Christian's POV

I was so shocked from everything that just happened. I couldn't believe that spoke to James like that. He has to be a new student because nobody in their right mind would have said that to him because he has a really bad reputation and is known for his pranks and being a bully. Everyone knows him and knows not to disrespect that's how big his reputation is.

So when he punched James square in his face and broke his nose I knew it was going to be war. Even James himself couldn't believe that he had hit him.

James' friends ran and helped him up then he walked up to him and said "You're going to regret ever f*cking with me."

After that he pushed through the crowd and stormed off down the hallway and the crowd dispersed.

"Are you okay?" he asked when he walked towards me.

I was still in a shocked state so I didn't respond the first time. So when he snapped his fingers in front of my face I was brought back to reality.

"Um....hello,are you okay?" he asked again.

"Y-yeah I'm g-good but you didn't have to do that. He is crazy he'll come back for you and maybe me too!" I said.

I started to panic so he placed his hands on my shoulders to calm me down. When I looked at him he said in a calm voice,

"Hey hey, It's okay I'm not afraid of him. I helped you because if I didn't he might have hurt you."

After I calmed down I said,

"Okay."

He nodded and turned around to start walking when I said,

"Wait!"

He stopped dead in his tracks and turned to look at me and I walked towards him and said,

"Thanks for you know....saving me back there." I gave him a nervous smile while my cheeks turned a deep red. He smiled and said,

"Your welcome." He turned to walk away but I stopped him and he didn't turn around this time and I asked,

"I didn-....What's your name?"

He said "Alex." Then walked away.

I stood there and watched him walk away but then I realized I was late for class and took my books out of my locker and hurried to class.

When I got there I profusely apologized for being late and my teacher let me off knowing that I was never late for class before but told me to not let it happen again.

I went and sat in my seat at the front of the class and thought to myself,

'My dad was right this year is DEFINITELY going to be different.'

***********

My classes for the first half of the day were okay. I got the usual crude remarks but besides that no one paid me any attention.

After class I walked towards the cafeteria and spotted Alex sitting at a table by himself so i got my lunch and walked towards him.

"Hi." I said and sat in front of him. He looked up and slightly smiled at me.

The silence between us was really awkward so I just sat their and quietly ate my lunch but then I started to feel really awkward so I broke the silence.

"So...are you new here? Cause I've never seen you here before."

He looked up from his phone and said,

"Yeah I just moved here."

"Where are you from and why did you move here?" I asked.

He tensed like there was something he didn't want me to know so I said,

"I'm sorry you don't have to tell me if you don't want to I shouldn't have asked, it's personal and not my business. I was only curious."

He gave me a forced smile and said "It's okay you were only being curious. I'm from Boston and the reason I moved here is because my dad's job caused us to move being that he got a promotion."

When he talked about his dad he got this dark look in his eyes and I had a feeling there was something more been the reason he moved here but I didn't pry. I just smiled and said "Oh okay, that's pretty cool I always wanted to go to Boston."

He looked shocked at first but then covered it up with a smile and said "Really?"

I grinned and said "Yh it would be a nice change instead of all the noise from the city."

He smiled at me and nodded.

Before he got to reply the bell rang for the end of lunch so I said " So I guess I'll see you around?"

He looked up at me when I got up from the table and said "Maybe."

Then he got up and walked away while I just stood there awkwardly. Then I left the cafeteria and went to fifth period.

For the rest of the day I couldn't stop thinking about him and I knew there was something about him that had me puzzled and I was going to find out what it was.

I'm sorry the chapter was so short but next time it'll be longer.
