**Braxton's POV**

This class is so boring, I don't know if I can do this for the whole semester. Dr.Finchum is strict and from what I can tell right now he is like one of those men who say "it's my way or the highway". I can't stand those people.

He is finished going over the syllabus and now he is showing us some stupid introduction powerpoint on what we will be covering tomorrow. I'm not really paying attention because I am too busy looking at Caroline. She is really cute. She has long blonde straight hair and bright blue, yet hazel eyes, with their own design in them. I have never seen anyone with eyes like hers.

I just moved here from California. My parents decided that my mother's new job offer is better than what she had originally. It's different here, for sure. We have only been here for about a month or so. I haven't gotten the chance to meet any new people since today is only the first day of school. Caroline is really the only person I've had an actual conversation with, but I'm not complaining.

As I'm stuck in my thoughts, the screeching bell rings.

I walk down the hall to my locker and look at my schedule. Looks like I have visual arts, ugh something else I'm not good at. Room 212. I have no clue where that is, so I decide to ask Caroline. Our lockers aren't that far apart so I take the short distance to hers.

"Are you stalking me?", She says this with a laugh. I start to laugh too because of how pathetic I look.

"Um... n-no. I just moved here and I don't know where anything is and you are the only person I have talked to today so... yeah". She looks at me, slowly shaking her head while slightly smiling.

"I was only just messing with you, Miller. Lighten up! And anyway, what did you need?" I laugh and tell her that I have visual arts next and she tells me where it is. I thank her and quickly make my way to the class.

**Caroline's POV**

I watch as he walks away. I know that I should be annoyed that he keeps asking me for directions, but he is just so hot, how can I resist? He said he just moved here so my theory from earlier of him being a new student was true. I wonder where he came from? Maybe I'll ask later.

I start walking towards my third period class, P.E., when I feel two arms snake their way around my waist. There is only one person who does this so I just respond with "Well, hello there".

"Hey hun, how is your day", Shawn says. Shawn and I have grown up together here in Canada. We have been inseparable since kindergarten. He always greets me like this, so I am used to it. People always ask me if we are together and I always tell them no. That'd just be strange.

"It's pretty good actually. I have made a new friend today".

He looks at me with a weird look and says, "I hope they aren't better than me". I can only laugh at his lack of self-confidence.

"Of course not babe!" I pinch his cheeks like my grandma does."There is no one as good as you." He smiles his perfectly amazing smile.

After this we walk into gym together. Thank God we have at least one class together. We hang out every chance we get, but it's still nice to have class together too. I can't wait to tell Shawn all about Braxton.
