A week later it was the first day of school. Nathan met up with Mark and Melanie at the fountain and smiled

"Can you guys believe we are starting our sophomore year of high school!" he said they nodded

"How are you feeling?" he asked looking toward Mark whose small scrapes had healed but he still walking with a slight limp due to the injury on his leg.

Mark lifted up his shirt to show him his gash on his stomach "I'm pretty good. This is healing pretty well, it's going to leave a nice scar though" he grinned

Nathan smiled "Hey it almost matches mine" he lifted his shirt to show him a scar across his left abs

"Woah dude how'd you get that!" Mark said looking at the healed wound

Melanie stood there awkwardly as the two boys held their shirts up and seemed to be flashing their toned stomachs at each other

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw someone across the courtyard "April!" she waved catching the girls attention

The boys quickly put their shirts down as April approached them

"Hey guys, hey Nate how was your summer?" she asked

He smiled "It was great I had a lot of fun being an acrobat. How was yours?" he asked

She nodded "It was good, it probably wasn't as exciting as traveling the country with the circus or getting a boyfriend though"

Nathan narrowed his eyes "Getting a boyfriend? Who got a boyfriend?" he asked confused looking between everyone

"You didn't tell him?" April asked looking toward Melanie who elbowed her

"April lets go look at that thing" she said lowly, quickly walking away with her friend before anyone could say anything else

"Tell me what?" Nathan asked looking at Mark

Mark shrugged "I don't know why she didn't tell you yet"

Nathan kept his eyes on the girls a few feet away and watched as a dark-haired guy about the same height as him walked up to them. He threw an arm around Melanie's waist and pecked her lips

"Melanie has a boyfriend?" Nathan said like he was letting out a breath

Mark nodded "For about 6 weeks now, his name is Andrew. He's new here"

Nathan turned fully away from the two girls and focused on Mark "How could you let this happen? What do we know about this guy? What if he hurts her like Greg did!" he said throwing his arms up

Mark held up his hands in defense "Trust me Nate when I found out I was just like you and I tried to put a stop to it. But what are we supposed to do? She has a freedom to date whoever she wants and you know how stubborn she is. When I told her, I didn't like him and couldn't give her a valid reason as to why I didn't she gave me a black eye"

The bell rang and Nathan let out a long sigh "This is a great way to start off the school year" he sarcastically said under his breath as he went his separate way to his first class

When he walked in he was pleased to see that he had his first hour with April, he quickly pushed past the rest of the students and sat next to her

"Hey April!" he grinned at her

She smiled at him "Hey Nate, you have this class too?"

He nodded "Looks like it" he said flashing his schedule at her
