Made For Each Other {10 Things I Hate About You} Patrick Verona x OC

Chapter 1 - Welcome to Padua High

Rachel's pov:

It's my first day at Padua High today! I'm both nervous and excited about this and fortunately I'm with my chilhood best friend Jake Peterson, who is considered to be a juvenile delinquent, you know, one of those rumours that some idiots spread without even knowing him, and I've managed to make friends here! I've been hanging out with Kat and Mandela. For some reason, almost everyone think of Kat as a bitch, but we get along very well. Mandela is a huge fan of Shakespeare and she loves everything about him...

I'm driving at the moment while listening to music on the radio nodding my head to the beat of the song. I love music and I'd like to get into the Juilliard School and study to be a musician... About 10 minutes later I get to school and park my car right next to Jake's motorbike. Then I get out and walk towards his bike, "Hey there bro!", I say with a smile and he smiles back sweetly "Ready?" I smile nodding "As I'll ever be!" then we and get into the school laughing. We need to meet Ms Perky, the school's counselor, before we can go to class. I think this is gonna be great... We were right outside her office when we saw her talking with a cute, dark haired boy "I'll be right with you" she said him nodding as she takes a last look at her laptop. When she finished with her work she turned to look at the boy "So, Cameron. Here you go. Nine schools in ten years, my my... Army brat?" she asked "Yeah. My dads a..." he tried to say but she cut him off "That's enough. I'm sure you won't find Padua any different than your old school. Same little asswipe shit-for-brains everywhere" she informed him and my eyes widened at this. "Excuse me. Did you just say... Am I in the right office?" Cameron stuttered slightly shocked at what she had said, "Not anymore youre not. I've got deviants to see and a novel to finish. Now scoot. Scoot!" she exclaimed "Okay." he said as he grabbed his bag and headed for the door. Another boy, tall, with dark curly hair, walked into the doorway and glared down at him. "Thanks. Thanks a lot." Cameron said quietly as he looked up at that boy and and ran from the doorway quickly almost knocking over me. "Patrick Verona. I see we're making our visits a weekly ritual." she said giving him a disapproving glance "Only so we can have these moments together. Should I, uh, get the lights?" Patrick replied sarcastically, "Oh very clever, kangaroo boy. Says here you exposed yourself in the cafeteria?" Ms. Perky went on. "I was joking with the lunch lady. It was a bratwurst." Patrick explained, as I was trying not to laugh. "Bratwurst?" she said glancing at his loins suspiciously "Aren't we the optimist? Next time, keep it in your pouch, okay? Scoot!" she finished. After he leaves, she typed something on her laptop's keyboard. I think I saw Jake giving this boy a high five, but I didn't pay attention to this. "Hello, can I help you?" she says. Sorry ma'am, I think that you're the one who needs help here. "Yes, we're new here. My name's Rachel Parker." I said "And I'm Jake Peterson." Jake added smirking to me. "Well, here's your papers. I have to continue writing my novel now. Scoot!" she exclaimed again and we instantly left her office. "Where did you meet this guy?" I asked him while we were on our way to the classroom, "Who? Patrick? I met him a couple of weeks ago." he replied. "Anyway, let me see what classes you got Jake...we may have some together." I told Jake and he handed me his schedule. Then I pulled out mine and compared the two. "Just as I thought Jakey..." I smirked. "What? Don't tell me I'll be on my own in all my classes! I'll go crazy." he said a bit panicked. "No silly... What you got, I got!" I said and he sighed a breath of relief. I really think this day is gonna be awesome after all...
