sometimes life hits you in unexpected ways. it's as if the one thing you thought you didn't want, the one thing you weren't looking for, just waltzes into your life and you realize that it's the one thing you need
*********CHAPTER 1
Alex's POV
So here I am sitting in Mr. Philips 2nd period Biology class, not really listening to anything he's saying because there are way more important things at hand.
Such as planning out my Halloween costume for Curtis's party this weekend. Duh.
Just kidding. Unfortunately.
As if I, Alex James, would attend one of those lame high school parties anyway. I mean what sane person would VOLUNTARILY go to a house packed with drunk, bimbos in tiny pieces of fabric, and hormonal teenage guys simply looking to get laid.
Just a room full of morons, with low developed brains and highly developed bodies.
Anyway so the real reason why I'm not listening is because I'm too busy admiring the ever so gorgeous Sebastian Adler, and thinking of new insults for his ever so snooty Kayla Cassidy.
I know what you're thinking. 'Come on Alex! You made us all think you were chill and didn't fall for those stupid high school douche bags'.
Well trust me that is not what's going on here. I mean isn't it okay to appreciate when someone is totally gorgeous? Just because I think he's good looking, doesn't mean I'm love with him, I don't even like him.
But I cannot deny that he's totally hot.
His beautiful, hazel eyes. His luscious, dirty blonde hair. His perfectly carved nose. His soft, pink lips. His perfectly lean, but muscly body. His perfect smile that could leave any girl star struck, any girl, but me.
I guess I don't like him because he's too boring. He's so cliché it's unreal. I'm also not looking for a relationship, I just don't have any time for that. My main focuses are getting a scholarship, drawing, and singing.
Not that anyone I know will ever hear me sing or see my drawings. I'm too reserved for that. Plus no one would be able to handle my awesomeness. Singing in front of my school would be like standing naked in front of the Pope. I mean in my mind I imagine other people thinking I'm awful. I probably just sound good to my own ears.
Besides it's not like I have to show every bit of me to these people, just because I spend more than a quarter of my day in their presence.
Anyway back to Sebastian, or God, as my best friends Karine, Serena and Cameron like to call him. They call him that because he blesses everyone with his presence. We're friends but I can't get too close to him because Kayla treats him like her personal possession. Not that I wanna get close or anything. Kayla is insane. She's literally hated me since preschool.
She kind of makes it her duty to make my life miserable. On my first day of freshman year she found my locker before I did and put a sign on it that read 'Hey Boys! I may not look like olive oil, but I'm extra virgin'. It's safe to say guys definitely ignored me for the entire first semester.
All guys except for Cameron.
Cameron sat beside me first period right after the locker incident. He just came in there sat beside me and just bluntly said "Kayla's a hoe". That was the start of a beautiful friendship. Him and I just hit it off, and ever since then I've told him everything. We do everything together. He's always honest with me and there for me when I need a shoulder to cry on. He also offers the best advice for every situation.
Serena and I had already been best friends. She's been there for me since 3rd grade, when Kayla really started to get to me. Karine, God bless her sweet soul, came through Sophomore year. Basically Kayla dumped all the food from my lunch tray on my head, and Karine told her that her fake tan looked borderline racist and that her nasally voice was giving her Sponge Bob vibes. After that I knew I had to get my hands on her. She fit in so well with my crazy friends.
I guess I kind of owe Kayla my thanks, she kind of brought my friends and I together. My friends and I are insane but that's just the way I like th—
"Right, Alexandria?" Mr. Philips asked. The entire class's eyes were on me. Including Sebastian, whom I was currently staring at. Well this is embarrassing.
I averted my eyes and they briefly roamed to Kayla's. Yup, she was definitely giving me the death glare.
I looked at Mr. Philips. "First off John, you know I hate when you call me that, and second, pfft... yeah, I totally agree!" I said purposely emphasizing his first name.
"So you think I should assign the pairings for your partner project?" He asked
"No I don't think—"
"Fine class since Alexandria was just begging me to pick your partners, I guess this is a democracy and I have to do what the public suggests" He says cutting me off.
The entire class groans.
"But I get to be with Sebastian right?" Kayla has the audacity to ask.
"Wow. You really are blonde" Karine says from her seat beside me, obviously rolling her eyes.
"Karine your partnered with Kayla, since you have so many nice things to say about her, you can say them while you work on the project" Mr. Philips says.
"With all do respect sir, are you trying to set me up for failure? You may as well hand me my McDonald's application now!" Karine says. The class erupts with laughter.
"I'll make sure to grab that for you before detention this evening" Mr. Philips replies.
I have to laugh at that, I mean the guy's a savage. Karine just shrugs because detention is kind of a daily thing for her.
"Mike you're with Loraine, Cameron you and Serena are together, Alex, um... you can be with Sebastian..."
I stop listening after that, I look up at Seb and he smiles and winks at me"My place or yours?" He asks. Kayla looks as if her eyes are popping out of her head. Great. If she didn't want to decapitate me before, she definitely does now.
I just hope he's as good at Biology as he is at getting in a girl's pants.
Also, Mr. Philips is lowkey a queen.
