It All Started With A Dare...

First Day of School😒

Belle's POV

"Oh my gosh. I can't believe you just did that! Did you like it?", she said while babbling. "Shelli! Calm down!", I tried to say catching my breath.

I didn't even know who that was. But I loved the way we kissed. I couldn't even believe what I just did. Suddenly, I saw Shelli's eyes light up. I turned around to see two guys walkng towards us. And not just two guys. One of them was the one I had literally JUST made out with. I panicked. "Shelli, let's go. NOW", I told her nervously.

She nodded after realizing who was walking towards us and had a light blush on her cheeks. I wonder why? I will have to ask her about that later... cause right now we have bigger problems. She gave me a run and don't look back look. I nodded and jumped up. Gathering my book and phone, we started to run.

"Hazelnut!", someone yelled behind me. Who was that I thought. Whatever, I will figure it out later. Out TOP priority right now is to get back to Aunt Marie's house. I could tell that Shelli was nervous about something.

When we got back, showered and ate lunch I decided to ask her what was wrong. "Shelli, I know when something is up. you know whatever it is you can tell me.", I assured her. She looked up and smiled slightly. " Well... when the two guys were walking towards us, I was scared. The one next to the one you kissed is...well he is sort of my crush. I never had n urge to talk to him, Belle. Every time he is near me, I act weird and not just weird but VERY VERY weird", she replied.

I felt bad for her. I didn't really know how she felt but it must not feel great. Having to act strange around a guy you like is probably not very fun.

"Anyway", she said changing the subject, ' what about you and James". Who was James. Oh, him. I felt weird talking about it. I never really kissed a guy for that long before.

"It was okay", I answered. "Okay? He is like the most hottest, besides Liam, and most popuklar guy at Lincoln High!", she informed me.

"Wait a minute. HE GOES TO LINCOLN HIGH!", I asked angrily. She nodded happily. If she weren't my cousin, I swear I would make her regret making me do that dare. I am going to be so embarrassed on Monday...

" I can't believe I kissed that guy. Does he have a girlfriend", I asked her. She answered," No not that I know of, but I think he used to".

Oh shit. What if he still had one!!!

"Shelli, I hate you", I said. She just kept smiling and closed the door to my room.

NEXT MORNING

I woke up with the terrible sound of the alarm clock. I groaned and got out of bed looking in the mirror. It was Monday morning and I looked like I was just in a marathon, great.

I picked a over-sized light blue sweater and black leggings.

Wait... I am not in New Jersey anymore.

I now decided to wear blue denim shorts with a few rips in them and a pale pink crop top. I tied my hair up in a bun and headed downstairs for breakfast.

" Aww. You look very cute dear," My aunt said when I sat at the counter. "Thank you Aunt Marie", I said. I was eating with Shelli when she suddenly said," I can't believe we are going to be in the same classes!". I nodded in response because I had a spoonful of oatmeal in my mouth.

After finishing our bowls of oatmeal, we headed to school. I had said fair well to my aunt and parents. Shelli was driving to school since I didn't know where the heck Lincoln High was.

What surprised me the most was that no one seemed to stare at me. I was glad about that. No one had asked me anything or give me weird glares.

But there was this one snobby girl whose I thinks name was Heather. Heather didn't really do anything but give me a deadly look. Like, What the f*ck. I have only been here a half and hour. She had way too much make up on and was wearing in the tightest clothes you could imagine. Shelli just said to ignore her but all I wanted to do was the opposite.

Maybe she is nice in real person ,I thought

My first two periods I had with Shelli. However, we both didn't have ALL the same classes so then I was on my own. My next class was French. I went down the stairs and someone bumped into me which made me drop all my books.

"Oh My gosh! I am so sorry," I heard a female voice say. "It's okay", I replied. She helped me pick up my books and asked me, "What is your next class?".

"French," I replied. She smiled," I am Chloe. Chloe Brown", she stated. "Belle", I told her.

I had asked her where French class was and if she wanted to sit with me and Shelli at lunch. Apparently she doesn't have many friends. I guess we had a few things in common. We chatted until we reached my room.

When I waved goodbye to her, I headed in the classroom. I was still early but I still sat down in the back. When class started a teacher named Miss Lumbeck took a glance at me and smiled. I honestly thought she was going to make me sit in the front since it was my first day. Everything was going well until there was a knock on the door. Everyone except me looked up.

" Finally, Mr. James can join us.

No! Not now. This can't be happening.

He took a seat in front of me which relieved me and ignored that I was even there. Maybe he didn't recognize me. But some part of me just wanted to kiss him again. I pushed those thoughts aside. No Belle, you can't be with him.

Finally the bell rung. I quickly took my belongings and headed towards the door. When I was out of the classroom someone grabbed my hand.

"Remember me, Hazelnut?"
