Greta's POV:

The next morning I wake up late. I realize i forgot to set my alarm. The time says 7:00. My bus comes in 20 minutes. I jump out of bed then throw on sweats and a old softball shirt. I brush on my makeup. I have 10 more minutes. Great. I french braid my hair back. 5 minutes. I run to the bathroom and brush my teeth. No time to eat today! And with that i grab my jacket and my backpack and run out the door. As i'm walking i see Hayes and Elaina. 

Greta: Hey guys! What's up? 

Hayes: Why is your school so early here?

Elaina: We get out earlier and have the rest of the day to do whatever we want. Chill. 

We catch the bus. Since we have Hayes now I sit alone. I feel like i'm being replaced by my own best friend. Whatever. She really likes Hayes so she probably wants to spend as much time as possible with him. I decide to put on ear phones. I listen to 8tracks. It's my favorite station to listen to. They have a lot of different songs to listen too. It's great. When we get to school i walk to my locker. Hayes follows and stops at the locker next to mine. 

Hayes: Looks like were locker neighbors G!

Greta: Awesome. 

Yay. Hayes is my locker neighbor. When i turn around there's a crowd around me and Hayes' locker. Everyone's taking pictures. I look at Hayes. When he turns around he is wide-eyed. I grab his hand and tell him to never let go. Everyone's taking pictures of us. I push through the crowd. 

Hayes POV:

Greta: Don't let go of my hand. 

Greta grabs my hand and pushes through the crowd. All i can concentrate is on our hands. As we make it through the crowd Greta's hand loosens. She try's to let go but i'm still holding on. 

Greta: Hayes. You can let me go now. 

Hayes: You did say to never let go. 

After i say that she blushes. I get red too. Shes so pretty when she gets embarrassed. When we get to class she sits down by a group of guys. 

Who are they. 

Greta's POV:

I am so embarrassed. I think Hayes might like me. I can't do that to Elaina. As I walk into Language Arts Hayes follows. I sit down next to the guys. Since none of the girls are in the class. Hayes sits behind me. 

Greta: Hey dudes. Whats up 

Drew: Hey G. 

Dylan: Yo G. 

Cory: Hey Greta!

I look back at Hayes and hes just sitting there awkwardly. 

Greta: Hey guys. This is Hayes. Hes new.

Drew: Isn't he fam-.OWW G!

I whisper to Drew. 

Greta: Shut up! Hes a normal 13 year old like you. Act normal. 

Hayes:  Yes Drew. In am famous. No big deal

I give Drew a glare. Hayes and the guys start talking about basketball. It is March Madness of course. They really seem like they all like each other. I just stare at my phone. I hope Hayes has a good first day.
