Click, click, click, my brown leather boots went on the floor as I entered the classroom. No one noticed me as I quickly sat down on a desk next to my best friend, Iris Apatow.

She turned her attention from her drawing she was doing to me, and gave me a warm smile.

"hi,"

"hey,"

things were oddly quiet. it seemed like she didn't want to speak to me, her best friend of seven years. I brushed it off to think about later and patiently waited for the teacher to come and begin the lesson.

"now, I have a new project for you to start!" our teacher announced enthusiastically, causing several groans from around the classroom. "and, before you start, I will be picking who you will be working with. You have the whole of this month to complete it, and your partner for this project shall be your partner for all your other projects you will have this year." she explained, gaining even more grumbles and mutters, if that was even possible.

I looked to my left to Iris. She made a face of dread at me and I returned one back, then continued listening to the teacher.

"right, Daisy... Daisy Andrews. with... Jaeden Lieberher" Miss Ordered, pointing at a boy sat in the corner of the classroom, who barely looked up.

the name Jaeden Lieberher was unfamiliar to me; he was most likely new to the school. I collected my items off my desk and walked directly to him. he quickly faced me, startled, as I took a step back away from him. I was probably too close.

"daisy, right?" he asked.

"yes. I don't think we've met before"

"I'm Jaeden. Jaeden Lieberher"
