A Few Days Later (Tuesday afternoon)...

I walked into my Environmental Science class with Wes and we sat in our usual spots. We were still tired from our eventful weekend but still managed to hold a conversation before class started. Our teacher walked in with a short blonde girl with glasses following behind him. He cleared his throat to get the class's attention and spoke up once we were quiet,

"This is Hannah" he said, gesturing to the girl who was standing next to him. Her sleeves were pulled over her hands and she was swaying back and fourth. Her head was down and her hair was covering her face. She looked really nervous, "She's a transfer student from Scotland and this is her first day. I hope you'll all welcome her with open arms into our class. Now, this week instead of our usual class you'll all start working on your group powerpoint presentations. They can be about anything related to global issues. Three people per group". Wes and I had been looking forward to this project since it had been announced. We had already begun brainstorming what we were going to do our presentation about and settled on global warming. We still needed a third person for our group,

"Hey, do you wanna ask that transfer student if she wants to work with us on the project?" I asked, turning to Wes. He nodded and grinned. I already knew what he was thinking, "you think she's cute, don't you?" I asked. I had noticed he was staring at her the second she walked in the room.

"Yeah" he admitted shyly. I scoffed at him,

"C'mon, lover boy, let's go ask Hannah if she wants to work with us" I said as I got up. We walked over to where she was sitting, all the way in the bottom row of the lecture hall closest to the door. She look up at us as we approached, "Hi! Hannah, right? We wanted to know if you wanted to work on the powerpoint project with us" I said.

"Yeah, that'd be cool" she replied with a thick accent, smiling shyly. She blushed when she noticed Wes was staring at her, "what are your names?" she asked. Wes and I introduced ourselves, "nice to meet you both".

"Nice to meet you too! Did you want us to show you around?" I asked, knowing that our teacher would let us out early to work on our projects. She smiled excitedly,

"Yeah, that's really nice of you!" she replied. It seemed she wasn't as nervous as she was before. Our teacher dismissed us and Wes and I led Hannah around the campus, showing her where everything was. Since none of us had any other classes for the day, we invited her out to dinner and called everyone else, asking if they wanted to come with us. Everyone confirmed that they were free and we met up with them an hour later. We spent the entire night out and ended back at our dorm around 10:30. Lucky for the rest of us, Hannah was in the same building and floor as us. I plopped onto my bed and sighed happily, feeling as if our circle of friends was finally complete.

(A/N) Super short chapter!! I'm sorry! I needed a chapter to add Hannah into the story. She's one of my best Tumblr friends so when she asked to be in it I had to think of something x3. This chapter is dedicated to her! (Hell-in-hello-sweetie.tumblr.com) Fun fact: I actually took environmental science and I actually had to do a project about global warming, so that little smidge of the story is actually real! I promise the next chapter is a lot more interesting, so please stick around!!! I'm so thankful for all of my readers! <3 –Molly
