My First and Only Love

Chapter One

*1 year earlier*
    I walked into Ferguson High School, for the first time ever. 'Florida is so different from California,' I thought. Everyone was staring at me. Why did my mom decide to move over here in January?!
As I looked down at my schedule I bumped into someone. "Sorry," a male voice said. "No I'm sorry, I should have been looking," I replied still looking down. My shy side tends to make me be like this. "Are you new here?" "Yea, I am." As I adjusted my glasses, I dropped my binder. We both bent down to pick it up, but he beat me to it. He handed me my binder. "Thanks." "No problem, you could at least look up so I could see your face." I hesitated, but I looked up. I saw the most handsome guy in the world. He was blonde with beautiful blue eyes. "Hi," he said smiling. "Hi." "I'm Spencer Jackson." "I'm Cassandra Holt." "It's nice to meet you." "Nice meeting you too. I have to head to class." "Yea, me too. See ya later beautiful." I felt myself blush," See ya."
I turned around and headed for room 256: Chemistry. When I walked in, I realized I was a minute late. "I'm very sorry," I told the teacher. "It's alright Ms. Holt. Take a seat, any empty one will do." I looked around and the first empty seat I saw was next to the one and only Spencer Jackson. He motioned for me to go sit with him. Again, I hesitated, but I sat with him. "Hi again," he said softly. "Hey." "Maybe we have some more classes together." "Yea maybe." I saw his binder had his schedule. "May I?" I asked. He passed me his binder and I compared his with mine.

"We have 2 classes together per day, plus lunch," I told him. "Really, which ones?" "Day A- Obviously this one and P.E. Day B- Language Arts and Home EC." "Well then, I guess I will get to know you really well." "Yea I guess so," I said smiling. "How do you feel about being my chemistry partner for the rest of the year?" "Pretty good about it. I hope you will be able to keep up with me though." "Me? Keeping up with you? Ha. You are going to have to keep up with me. I am literally the best when it comes to chemistry." "Yea but not when it comes to chemistry with girls," another male said behind us. I turned around and saw it was a guy who was with him in the hallway," He has never had a girlfriend."
I stared at him in shock. "Yea yea whatever," Spencer said. I turned around and froze. How could this handsome guy never have had a girlfriend?! "Cassandra, we should start paying attention to the lesson," Spencer told me. "Yea, let's listen."
I could barely pay attention to the teacher, who I now know is named Mr. Jewel. I was still in shock about Spencer never having a girlfriend.
Later that day, I went to the girls locker room. I saw that all the girls were wearing booty shorts and sport bras. I supposed it was because of the intense heat there was in Florida. I took off my shirt and was thankful I had worn my sports bra. I dug into my bookbag and found the booty shorts I had packed for dance, which was the next day. I went outside, and saw that all the guys were wearing shorts and no shirts.
'Oh gosh,' I thought. 'Spencer has P.E. this period. He is going to be shirtless too...' "Hey Cassandra," a familiar voice said behind me. I turned around," Hey Maria."
Maria was a girl had I met in Finance. She came over to talk to me when she saw I was all alone. We made small talk and we became friends. I had no idea she had P.E. with me.
"This is so cool! We have P.E. together too!" she exclaimed. "Yea it's great," I agreed. Someone grabbed my shoulder. I turned around and saw Spencer. He was shirtless like I had predicted. He had big muscles and he had a 6-pack. 'Woah,' was my first thought. "Hey Cassandra." "Hey Spencer." "You really for basketball?" "We are playing basketball?" "Yep." "Yay! Basketball is my favorite sport, and I was the captain of the basketball team at my old school." "That's amazing. Wanna play with me?" "Yea sure." I looked at Maria. "Don't invite me," she said," I already have a group," Have fun you two." She waved and walked away. "Ready to play?" "Ready as I've ever been," I replied.
He and I played together the whole period. Once in a while, his friends would join. But, his attention was mostly mine. I was pretty sure I had found a new best friend.
