Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. - I seriously don't know.

Eureka,

Eureka indeed.

He was easy to find (Probably cause I had his face memorised by now), he looked a lot like his friends around him but there was still something very distinct and different about him. His looks were of a typical British handsome boy at first glance, but then at second glance, you just know it wouldn't be your last glance. He had a face that looked more attractive the longer you stared at him.

He is really beautiful.

I turned away with warm cheeks before I could meet his eyes, feeling flustered for god knows why, and tried to concentrate on the chalkboard in front of me. I ignored my subtle erratical breathing and surprised myself by looking back at him.

It's not my fault. Good looking boys always had me weak.

'How is class going? Have you met the guy yet?' - Franz

Franz Rüdiger, one of my close friends back from F.O.R.C.E, missed me and I could say this because he never texted anyone. I smiled, but was a little sad at the fact that we would be with each other right now at camp in training if it wasn't for my new assignment;

'Idk about class but the guy. Damn. I think I'm in love.' -Clarke

Of course I was joking and he knew it too. My love life was as absent as my parents were. But at least there was something to look forward to at this new job. I kept my phone aside as the professor started a new chapter, and zoned out before I could even hear the name of the book we're learning.

After approximately fifteen minutes of doodling and being bored, someone in the front cleared their throat grabbing my attention. I looked up curiously and found the whole class with the professor staring at me with amused expressions.

"Miss New girl, it would be lovely if you could stop humming Michael Jackson and just pay attention."

"Sorry." I ignored the embarrassment that burned down my chest and nodded meekly before looking down. I didn't realise I was that loud. It was quite embarrassing being called out in front of everyone and I didn't like it one bit. Back in the camp, I was the one everyone looked up to. This was quite different from camp, and plus it was my first time in a public school after all. I could slowly feel the peer pressure, the need to be accepted and liked. High school could do that to you. The bold and bossy Clarke wasn't bold or bossy anymore.

She was shy.

I convinced myself that I was only shy because everything was just new, and eventually I'd warm up to my surroundings which would allow me to be comfortable and be myself.

Well I hope so at least.

"So that's precisely why I think I should I have a bodyguard. A fucking cool one." Dan finished his long speech, or at least it felt too long, and smiled brightly which made us all grimace.

"You sound ten times worse when you're high," Jaiden joked and pulled Elsa with him as he walked further away from us leaving us laughing like hyenas.

"I would love to meet your bodyguard, Dan!" Elsa yelled out as she smiled back wildly with mirth and redness evident in her eyes. Damn, she needs eyedrops. Dan blew her a kiss which received a giggle from her.

"Yeah I wanna meet him too so I can ask him how he feels protecting something worth absolutely nothing," Harry added aside making all of us laugh again. I didn't really notice both the classes go by, we were all just high and having fun. Summer just ended but we were still feeling the holidays. I guess I saw some new faces here and there but nothing really interesting happened. We just kept laughing.
