"This is going to be a great year!" By now J and Kelsey had gone off to find there classes. I looked in her eyes and both started to lean in and-

Alexis' P.O.V.

Jack and I were both leaning in and just as our lips were about to connect a wave of people filled up the hallways. I guess that was good, considering we both don't know eachother too well.

"Come on Alexis we should probably got to class." Jack half yelled cause of the amount of people.

"Yeah okay let's go" I replied, the crowd was so big Jack reached for my hand and our fingers intertwined. I felt a little butterflies in my stomach from the smallest touch. I've only had these from one other person in life, but not like these, these were better.

We finally got to our first class (English Language Arts) which was a relive, it took so long and too much effort for my liking. Well we ended up being late, by about 3 minutes. The teacher didn't care that much but you could tell she was a bit annoyed.

"Ah you must be Jack Glinsky and Alexis Waters, what took you so long?"

"We got lost" Jack stated

"A lot." I added.

"Well come sit down, we were discussing our next big project."

Jack and I took a set next to eachother, and I realized we were still holding hands I pulled mine away, I don't need to be called a slut for the rest of the year.

"So as I was saying you guys are going to be working with a partner," once she said the class all started talking about who's with who. "But! I'm picking your partners, so stop your talking and listen to whom you're with. Okay so once I get finished with the partners I want you to go sit next to them. To start off: Ligha and Emma, Jack and Nikki, Alexis and Madison...." after I heard my name I zoned out, I wish I got Jack.

Everyone started moving and I figured the teacher was done so I looked around trying to find someone that looked like a Madison. There was someone at the back of the class that hadn't gotten up so I went to investigate.
"Hi, I'm Alexis are you Madison?" She did a small head nod and I knew some thing was up. So I sat down next to her and started talk with her. "Okay so I was late do you know what we are doing?" She shook her head no. This reminded me of myself when I was in Canada. I was quite and didn't talk if I didn't have to. Madison was getting bullied.

The teacher started talk, "So now on to what you're doing, you are going to do a research project. You have to pick any topic and then create something to relate to that, you can do a 3D project or do a essay. This is due at the end of the year which is in 3 months. Once everyone is done you will present it to the class." When she was finished explaining the bell rang.

"What is your next class Madison?" I really wanted to help her out.

"Algebra 2 with Mr. Andrews" she spoke so softly I could just faintly hear her.

"Same, can you show my friend Jack and I how to get there? We're new and we don't know where to go." She nodded and we all left the class room and went to math.

"Hey Madison, I see you made new friends?" I could tell Madison we scared she tensed up and slowly turned around to look a the voice from behind us.
