*Your POV*
The bell rings and I let the breath that I was holding in all the time finally out. »Don't forget your homework on page eighty-seven!« our teacher screams while a few are already rushing out.
I write the homework down somewhere. I already feel so overwhelmed. I open our French book to check what it is. My jaw drops as I realize that I don't understand the most of the things. I sigh and close the book. I lean my head on the table and close my eyes. I want to cry.
»It's not as difficult as it looks.« I look up and see Grayson in front of me. He's smiling and I ask myself why he won't stop smiling. I slowly stand up. »I hope so..« I say and try to smile back. As I look above his shoulder I can see a few girls looking at us. I don't mind them and look away.
»Uh.. I can help you if you want to.« he offers me his help.. I don't want anyone's help and I know where this is going. »No thank you..« I say smiling. He nods.
»Well then.. I guess I'll see you to next class.« I nod and he leaves. I catch the girls looking at me again. They all leave at the same time after giving me a death stare.
I sit back down and wait until the next period. It's actually going very well I mean if this is school then it's okay I guess. It's not as bad as I thought.. I think I can make it alone for today. Or at least until lunch..
***
I walk down to lunch. Actually I just follow the other ones because I forgot where it was. Everyone has a friend and everyone walks in groups while I walk between them completely lonely. Yes I'm used to be alone but between a big crowd it's not really nice..
Maybe I could just skip lunch. I'm not hungry at all. Just as I think about turning around and walking back because I don't want to be alone, I hear Grayson's voice. He appears next to me..
»Would you like to join us at lunch?« he asks. »Us..?« I Ask him. I look behind us and see a few guys. Only guys. That makes me feel kinda uncomfortable so I shake my head. »No I really shouldn't-..« he cuts me off very kindly.
»Look I don't want you to get me wrong. It's just that I know how it feels to be alone. It's not like I want to force you. Eat lunch with us, I promise I'll leave you alone after that.« I look up at him. He's a little bit taller than me. He's very kind and so close.
Maybe that's how they are here.. I sigh. He looks at me like he knows I'm going to say yes. His mimic is so funny that I can't help myself and start laughing. He's handsome and he looks like he's a kind and fine boy.
»Alright.« I say and nod finally. I'm not sure if I should do this or not but o don't think it's going to be a problem. I don't know him but it's my first day and it shouldn't be a problem to know other people.
We get our plates filled with some food that I don't know. Then we sit down on a long table.
Grayson explains me what the names of the food is and he also introduces me to the other boys. They are the sporty ones of this school. He told me what they are playing for the school team but I forgot the name. They ask me questions and I answer them. It's not like they are trying to flirt with me or like they want something from me.
They are acting like normal people. »Don't worry. You don't need anybody. We are your new friends!« one of them says and I smile. They are really nice. »Yeah! Y/N is our little sister! From now on you're coming to us if anybody does you wrong!« the other one says rising his eyebrow. I chuckle. Grayson looks at me very differently.. I look away because it feels weird..
»Thank you all very much.. but for now.. excuse me. I'll go back to class.« I stand up and smile at everyone. They nod and wave at me. They are really nice. It's surprising me but I'm not complaining about it.
