Chapter 2:

As I take my seat in my Forensic Science class, I notice that the class was smaller than usual. As I look around I see a sign by the door that read:

"All students should participate in all group projects."

Wonderful. I've always hated group projects because the teachers all have this policy where they make you write your name down on a flash card and then they'd use those to pair you up. I'm not very good at meeting new people, as you can tell because I only have two best friends. With my thoughts taking over my brain, I didn't seem to notice that every other student had filled a desk and everyone was staring at me. Once again.

"Um, yes?" I question my own voice.

"The teacher was just asking you what your name is, what grade, and why you joined this class." A small blonde whispers to me, still staring at the teacher.

"Sorry, my name is uh- Lindsay Waters, I'm a junior this year, and I don't know..to get an extra credit?" I say.

"Such a shame that you didn't take this class because you thought you would enjoy it." The teacher says shaking his head.

"Sorry?" I say lifting my hands up.

"Okay next, you young man." The teacher points to the desk two seats away from me.

"I'm Tatum Marks. I'm a junior this year, and I actually took this class because I thought I would enjoy it."

His voice makes me look up at him, and I see the guy from the bus. So, Tatum was his name. His eyes drift to mine before his mouth turns into a small smirk.

As the teacher goes around the class again asking students the same question over and over again, I drift off into my own little dream land.

"But seriously that teacher was nuts!" Ally yells at Ben as I walk up to them.

"Fill me in." I say nudging Bens arm.

"Ally is going crazy because the teacher called her out and took her phone in class. She was obviously texting your brother." Ben laughs as Ally hits him.

"How would you know she was texting Mac?" I ask.

"Her face was about to break from all of her smiling she was doing, obviously it was your brother." Ben says in a 'duh' tone as he smiles, before sliding his arm around my shoulders and starts walking us to the way of our second period.

We all had the same class, which was a lucky streak once a year.

"And he's making my mom come pick up my phone, like are you serious?" Ally yells.

"Ally people are staring..." I whisper.

"Do you think I care? No. Stare people. Stare!" She yells at some freshmen standing near the vending machines.

"Al, it's okay...you have lunch with Mac which is right after this period. Just calm down." Ben says patting Ally on the shoulder.

"Fine, let's just go to English." Ally says walking ahead of us.

"She needs to take a chill pill." I say as Ben laughs.

"You got that right." Ben says squeezing my shoulder with his hand.

Hey there pretty brown eyes, whatcha doing later tonight?

My phone rings out as I pull it out to recieve a text.
