The Monday we got back from spring break, Weston and I had an obligation as 'Mr and Miss. St Agnes' and as seniors to get the future freshmen registered for high school. Our school called it 'senior service day', all 125 seniors got assigned some form of service like helping at elementary schools, going to nursing homes, things like that. We only had to do our day of service from 12 - 3 pm.

"So my name is Lennox Cooper and I'm a senior at St. Agnes. There should be your course selection guide going around the room and you'll need a pencil or pen. Today we're talking about the classes you need to take as freshmen. So the administration says I need to tell you about myself. So I made a powerpoint." I spoke

The first slide was a picture of me in my Lionette uniform, the day I won Miss. St. Agnes, and me and Mae the day we found out that we made Rally Cats.

"My name is Lennox Cooper, I'm seventeen, I'm - well was a Lionette, so if we have any dancers in the room that made lionettes, congrats. I'm also Miss. St. Agnes and I'm going to Clemson for business in the fall. I also made Clemson's dance team." I introduced myself

"Any questions so far? If you have any, stop me." I told them

Then a boy raised his hand, "Is your dad, Grayson Cooper?"

I nodded, "Yeah, I'm getting to my family."

"Do you have a boyfriend?" He added

"Maybe if you hold your horses you could find out and I'm pretty sure you're 13." I pointed out

"Fourteen, actually." He winked

I rolled my eyes, "Anyways, I have three brothers and two sisters. I have a twin named Luke, Carson is sixteen, so if you got on Varsity football for St. Agnes then you'll have to deal with Carson, then there's Gabe. My sisters are twins and their names are Jane and Ainsley. My mom and Dad, Aspen and Grayson. My dad played in the NFL blah, blah, blah, here are some pictures of my family and me. Now let's start talking about these classes."

"Do you have a boyfriend?" The boy went on

"If we get through our course selection, then I'll tell you." I grinned as I grabbed the extras

"You should have a little question and answer section at the end." A girl stopped me as she handed me the extra papers

She held her hand out, "My name is Grier-Rose, I made Lionettes."

Grier, there was that name again.

I shook her hand, "Congratulations, we'll do that."

"Okay, let's talk about your core subjects." I started

Somehow, I got all fifteen kids registered for high school in under forty-five minutes. That left us with fifteen minutes to spare.

"Any questions about high school?" I asked as I sat in front of the classroom

"AP or honors?" Someone asked

"Well, I did honors and AP classes. It's all personal preference really and what you like. Don't forget to go home and get your selections approved by your parents and bring it to S-A-H-S before June Twentieth." I answered

We continued to talk about AP/Honors classes, ACT, and how to juggle sports with high school. I made them go around and say their names, but it's not like I remembered them.

"Yes, Paul?" I called on the memorable boy

"Ok, so tell us if you have a boyfriend since there's like five minutes left and we're probably not going to see you ever again." Paul asked

I could feel my cheeks get all rosy as I put my hands on them.

"I do have a boyfriend." I finally answered
