The next thing I knew, everyone was coming into the room including Kaylin. As she walks in, I watch her give me an 'oh no' look. I instantly become worried. I wondered what she meant until I finally found out what she was getting at. Niall. He was in 6th hour with us. Wonderful. A worst nightmare in a worst night nightmare.

I didn't like this class at all. Mostly because of Ms. Akerson.. And now I've got another reason to dread it. He comes in, smirking at Faith, who was already staring him down. He sits right next to her.

I look over at Kaylin and mouth, "Oh, so he's targeted Faith now. Perfect." She sighs and looks over at what appears to be Faith flirting with Niall. She looks back over to me and mouths, "He doesn't like her. I can see it."

I roll my eyes, and look over at Ms. Akerson who was throwing her left over food away. I snarl over at her, and she notices but chooses to ignore it. She's disgusting.

"Okay, boys and girls, we're doing something different today," Ms. Akerson says over the class's conversations. "We're doing projects! And you'll be working in partners." She continues.

I hear a chorus of the class cheering and booing. "I know, exciting!" She says, with a smile on her face. I could tell she was faking it though.

Alex raises his hand and asks, "Uh, Ms. Akerson, can we pick our partners?" He says, smiling. Everyone starts to laugh at his question including me. I don't even know why he'd ask that because I'm 99.9% sure that she'd say no and he knew it.

"Actually, I'm gonna pick for you guys. Don't complain." She answers. Everyone moans in irritation as they roll their eyes at her. Along with me.

"Uh, Braydon, you're with Emily. Faith, you're with Mason. Morgan and , Kaylin and Dawson, Bailie and uh.. How about the new kid?" She says. My heart starts to beat out of my chest. I look over at him to see that he was smirking over at me.

"What's your name again?" She asks him. I turn around and look back at Kaylin and she mouths to me, "I'm so sorry.."

"Niall." He says, smiling at the devilish teacher.

"Perfect," She says pointing to both of us. "Bailie and Niall." She continues to pick out names. I look back at him and he waves at me, looking me up and down. I was so uncomfortable.
