Star's POV

I rushed into my first class, which was Spanish class with Mr. Lorenzo. I nerviously walked in trying to avoid eye contact while many starred judgementally. I sat at the 2nd row chair, closest to the window. Then Mr. Lorenzo came in.

"Buenos dìas clase. Por qué no let das la bienvenida a nuestro nuevo estudiante, Ms. Butterfly."

(Good morning class. Why don't we welcome our new student, Ms Butterfly)

Mr. Lorenzo said pointing at me while I was speechless thinking what to say. But I do know quite a little bit of Spanish...

"Hola companies de clase, Mr. Lorenzo. Estoy Star Butterfly"

(Hello classmates, Mr. Lorenzo. I'm Star Butterfly)

I confidently stood up to say, while everyone kept staring at me, surprised.

"Wow Ms. Butterfly fluent Spanish I must say, looks like you're gonna have a little competition with Mr. Dias over here."

He said with a Spanish accent while pointing at his right where Marco sits. Wait it's him! The guy who's project I destroyed by accident. He looks upset, I should probably apologize again and return his book.

Marco's POV

Great, the new girl's in my class, the one who destroyed my project. What a nightmare! I hate her so much, but why do I feel kinda...guilty? Nah, it's probably nothing, now I have to worry about my competition in Spanish class.

"Okay class we are going to have a little palabra ejercicio (word exercise) first, so everybody get up. And for the benefit of our new student I'll explain the rules, I will flash a card from my hand, you have to translate the word written in english to Spanish, and when I say go, the first student who stands up and gets to answer, if you gave the wrong answer you get disqualified, is that clear?"

"Yes señor"

Me and the rest of the class answered. While he grabbed his cards in his hand. The first word was 'apple'.

"Go!"

I quickly stood up as well as half of the class did, including Star.

"Yes, Mr. Diaz"

"Manzana"

"Correcto (correct)"

We all sat back down and waited for the next word. The second word was 'student'.

"Go!"

I stood up as fast as I can as well as less that half of the students, including Star.

"Yes, Ms. Mariposa (Butterfly)"

"Estudiante"

What!? No way. I was totally faster than her.

"Correcto Ms. Mariposa"

----15MinutesLater----

We were the last ones, neck in neck, 8 to 8. This never happened to me before, I always win.

Star's POV

Man he's good, we're like neck in neck, he lookes mad, should I stop?

"Last word, for the tie breaker"

He flipped the card and the word was "crush". I quickly stood up and surprisingly he did'nt.

"Yes, Ms. Mariposa"

"Aplastar"

"Correcto, and Ms. Butterfly wins!"

Mr. Lorenzo and the rest of the class applaused at my winning except Marco, when the bell rang he stormed out the classroom looking like earlier. I have to talk to him.
