Being the new girl

2. Kyle

Aimee has really taken a fancy to the new boy. He sits next to me in form and I have to admit...he is quite fit (sorry Rhys). All the girls in our form can not take their eyes off of him!

"Your name's Katie right?"

I smiled and nodded timidly, I told him how I only joined in October so am kind of new here so I know the feeling.

"Phew, I seem to get all the girls attention but the lads won't glance at me. They probably think I'm cocky, I'm not! So, tell me something about yourself!"

"Woah, way to blow your own trumpet! The boys in our year are mainly idiots but the ones who I'm friends with aren't...obviously otherwise I wouldn't be friends with them." Kyle laughed slightly, he does seem quite nice. "Anyway, I'm friends with the girls in that corner: Aimee, Grace, Mia, Leila and Evie. My boyfriend is Rhys, and I'm kind of friends with Mia's boyfriend James, Grace's boyfriend Mack and Leila's friend-boy Matt."

"Wait...what's a friend boy?!"

"Ahah, don't ask!"

Before I could carry on, I could feel Rhys' eyes on the back of my head as he clasped my hand. Aimee and the girls were laughing and staring...well Aimee was bright red as well. I just rolled my eyes and laughed. I turned around to kiss Rhys to convince him it's ok! Soon after the bell went for first period. I had to go to the student support centre as me and some others were told we had some mentor to help us pick our GSCE options. I don't know if that's good or not to be honest.

"Hey Katie...would I be allowed to hang out with you at break?"

"Of course, Mia and the girls looked after me so I will do the same. Even if you are a boy!"

I winked at him as he laughed and I ran to student support. As I was about to walk in I could feel a hand tapping me on the shoulder. I spun around to see Aimee standing kinda nervously in front of me.

"Soo, I can tell you're kinda friends with Kyle...I was basically wondering if you would,"

"Of course! I know what you're gonna say hun. I'll be at Science in around 15 mins so we will talk then, ok?"

Aimee nodded then strolled off, clearly triumphant. Again, I rolled my eyes. One day into the new year and there is already boy drama! My new mentor seems quite nice anyway and just told me basics about our options. I tried to listen but it was extremely boring.

Half an hour! That thing took half an hour! It was supposed to be five minutes. I sprinted to Science and collapsed on my stool. Miss Sett marched over to me, with a slip in her hand...not good!
