Jay
-----
My eyes constantly linger around the door. I'm aware I should be focusing on schoolwork, but his face is all I can focus on. I have a constant urge to see him again, but I'm unsure why. As I patiently wait I make sure the seat next to me is free, I desperately want him to sit there. My friend Connor notices me glaring at the door, remaining silent he approaches me.
"Whatcha doin'?"
He laughs confusingly, nudging my arm.
"Oh- nothing."
I weakly smile, bringing my attention on him.
"Hm, okay. You just seem like you're divided from our group, what a shame. Anyway you still up for football next week?"
He alters the subject, instantly.
"Yeah, sure!"
I lie. I'm not into football at all.
Connor smirks,
"Magnificent. I will beat you like always!"
He jokes, his voice becomes quieter as he wanders away.
"Yeah, whatever."
I smirk. I focus back on the door, wishing he would appear any moment.

My earphones comfort me. I leisurely inhale the fresh air and try to calm down. Saskia better be okay, I should've done something to help her!
"Hey! Get to second period!"
A nearby cleaner yells.
I briskly shove my headphones in my bag and scuttle inside.
"Forgot the time..."
I whisper under my breath, looking at my watch.
-
"Ugh! I've just been here!"
I launch my bag across the corridor and slide down the lockers placing my head in my hands.
"I'm lost! What an idiot!"
Jay

"Marcus?"
Miss spoke.
"Here miss."
He replies.
"Jay?"
"Here miss."
I answer.
"Harvey?"
...
"I said, Harvey?"
No answer.
"Miss, shall I go search for him?" I expeditiously stand, "He's most likely lost. He's the new guy."
Miss nods and allows me to leave. I forsake the class and begin my search. I can't believe I'm doing this. The new boy is giving me endless butterflies in my stomach, but someone tell me why?!
-
I've been to the toilets, outside areas, canteen and most of the halls to find him, but no sign just yet. My heart is heavily pounding, I can't wait to find him- it's like an Easter egg hunt! I proceed with jogging and take several lefts and rights, and oh my gosh- there he is! However, his head is resting in his hands, his bag has been thrown, is he okay? I dart straight towards him like he's a family member in trouble, and lower down on my knees offering my help.
"Hey..."
I gently whisper.
He instantly looks up as if he knows my voice off by heart.
"Damn... those eyes..."
I thought, as I blush a little.
"Jay!"
He beams, he leans in to hug me. Woah!
"Oops, I'm really sorry.."
He stutters with an embarrassing look written all over his face.
I chuckle, "It's alright. Are you lost?"
The pretty boy faces me again,
"Yeah... I'm lost."
I rise to my feet and offer my hand. He grasps on and drags himself up, however, instead of letting go our fingers intertwine- it felt natural. We both gaze upon our hands and smile, and not with just ordinary smiles, it feels more than that.
Harvey

I'm aware of the footsteps from a distance, but I ignore. I don't want to speak to anyone. The footsteps become louder, and louder.
The person softly kneels down, "Hey..."
He whispers.
I knew his voice instantly, it was Jay- no doubt about it! I'm glad he came, it means a lot to me, someone cares!
"Jay!" I smile, without thinking I lean in to hug him, soon after I realise what I just done.
"Oops, I'm sorry..."
I apologise, feeling embarrassment.
He laughs, "It's alright. Are you lost?"
I face him again.
"Yeah... I'm lost."
Jay stands and offers his hand to me, I grasp on and drag myself up but I don't let go, our fingers intertwine, It didn't feel forced at all. We smile at each other, I feel a strong connection with him... dammit! Look what he's doing to me.
