---------------------------------------------

When I paired up with nerd boy, I didn't think that it was such a bad thing.

"Hi, I'm Isabella. And you are?" I asked trying to ignore the glares from Ezra and pretty girl with black hair.

"I'm Tarron Jones. I am considered the class nerd, but only in appearances," he babbled. For some reason, I couldn't keep my eyes off of Ezra. He didn't look like the principles child. Heck Tarron fit the description more then Ezra.

"So what are we working on?" I asked Tarron.

"Well, I got our topic from the hat on the front desk while you were busy staring down Ezra and Venus. We got the Civil War." Tarron explained. So Venus was blackie's name. I guess it fit. Carmel skin matched up with carmel eyes that offset her black hair.

"Ah, okay. I was not staring. How long do we have on the project?"

"2 weeks, and yes, you were,"he said. I thought it over quietly.

"Want to work at my house after school everyday?"

"Heck ya! I mean, uh, sure..."

"Great, its settled. Wait for me after school and we will go back to my house." I said. We sat there in silence as we waited for the bell to ring. Venus and Ezra seemed in a deep conversation and didn't notice the outside world.

The bell blasted through the classroom as everyone hurried to gather their stuff and head to second period.

"Isabella, wait up." I heard Ezra say from behind me.

"Yes?" I question. I had no idea what he wanted to discuss with me.

"Why did you choose Tarron?" his blue eyes had a hint of sadness in them.

"Because he came up and asked me to be his partner." With all my stuff in my bag and arms, I walked out slowly. "Plus, you seemed fine enough with Blackie."

"Are you being racial?" he questioned

"I was talking about her hair." I sneered.

"Sure, her name is Venus, by the way."

"I know. Tarron told me." When I said Tarron's name, he grimaced. "What is so wrong with him that you absolutely hate him?" I asked, upset.

I looked at my schedule for my second period. Entering the busy hallway, Ezra followed close behind.

"Do you really want to know?" he asked.

"Yes!"

"Ask him tonight when he is at your house, then you'll know." Ezra said coldly.

"Fine. I will." I replied just as cold.

When I entered my second period, the first person I saw was Venus. As I scanned for an empty seat, the only one just happened to be next to her.

"Hi," I said trying to be polite.

"Hi," she replied I'm sure just to be polite also.

"Bonjour! Et bienvenue à français 2. Je m'appelé Madame Croix." As she was speaking she turned around and wrote things on the board.

"Her name means 'Cross' in French." I heard Venus mutter beside me.

"Well lets hope she never becomes 'croix' with us." I mutter back to Venus. I heard her snicker at my joke. I silently hoped that she would like me more then Ezra.
