I woke up to sound of bells, forgetting that I had, well Hunter had, set an alarm on my phone. Turning off the alarm, I went into my bathroom and began working on myself.
I showered, letting the warm water relax my muscles before a, no doubt, stressful day. When I got out of the shower, I dried my skin and put on a robe. I knew myself well enough to know that I wouldn't have enough time to get ready so I had put my hair in a bun to avoid getting it wet and put my clothes out the night before.
I took off my robe then, about to put on my outfit, when I heard the door open.
"Hey, I know that it's gonna be a really stressful day so I brought you some break- OH MY GOD!" I yelped and ran into my bathroom, slamming the door behind me in shock. After waiting two minutes, just to be sure, I cautiously cracked open the bathroom door to peek outside. When I had confirmed that he had left, I quickly went back to my room and put my previously selected outfit on. I picked out a loose white tank top with a black undershirt and some skinny ripped jeans. Stepping in front of my full length mirror, I undid my bun and let my waves fall around my face.
I hadn't put this much effort into my appearance before and it was a bit refreshing, to be honest. I slipped on my ankle high black converse, and made my way downstairs. I instantly found a bowl of cereal on the table. Hunter must have made this for me and the thought made me blush, remembering our most recent encounter that had to do with my bare body.

The ride to school in Hunter's car was silent. Not the kind of silent that was calming and all that. This silence made me want to rip my hair out so we'd have something to talk about. This was a strange feeling, I had talked to him less than 24 hours ago and I was already missing him.He parked right in front of the school, probably to give me less of a walk. I hopped out of the car and slung my new backpack over my shoulder. It carried empty binders and notebooks and blank sheets of paper that were begging to be filled. In the little time that we've known each other, Hunter had figured out that I don't like to be taken care of. So he's taking care of me in ways that he thinks I won't notice. Making me breakfast, parking close to the school. Although I appreciated the concern, I wanted him to be less of a father and more of a friend. If you can even call us that.
First period wasn't too difficult to find. However, it is on the third floor so it was hard to actually get to the classroom. But by some miracle I made it. I was reading a book on my phone when I heard a wolf whistle and made the mistake of looking up. The boy, clearly the school's biggest flirt, was looking at me with a lustful look in his eyes and a smirk on his lips.
"And who might you be?" He asked, somehow keeping the smirk on his face while he spoke.
"Alex." I answered in a monotone. I was determined not to give him an sign of interest whatsoever.
"I love it when a girl has a dude's name. It's so freakin' hot. I'm Tyler, by the way, and you can call me any time from 8 pm to 5 am cause you are so worth loosing sleep over." He ended his flirtatious comment with a wink. I raised my eyebrows. Tyler looked like he was about to respond to the gesture until the teacher walked in and shouted at Tyler for being out of his seat. Thankfully his seat was at the front of the class while the one I was sitting in was at the very back of the class. The teacher was about to start the lesson until he saw me, despite my efforts at staying hidden.
"Hello." He gestured for me to stand up, which I did unwillingly. "You must be the new student. What's your name?"
"Um... Alex." The nervousness was extremely visible in my voice.
"Tell us a little something about yourself." He pushed. I could already tell that I wasn't going to enjoy this class.
"I'm, uh, really into gymnastics?" I had no idea wheee that cane from." As far as I could remember I hadn't recalled doing any gymnastics at all. He gestured for me to sit down again and I shod a grateful look towards him after I sat down. Then the class started and I kept my head down the whole day. I made it through Chemistry, French, and English like that. Until I realized that it was time for fourth period. The last period of the day. And it had to be something that I was terrible at. It had to be gym class.
