noah cameron schnapp

when i woke that morning, i didn't know i would see the most beautiful girl again, the one from the park with the chestnut hair and chocolate brown eyes. i have stopped wondering about her for the past few days. why was she crying? it was quite obvious that she had been. but what if she didn't even remember me by now because of everything that caused her to cry was floating in her head still. i was lucky she fell into my arms. "someone said there's a new girl coming today." caleb told me as we climbed the marble stone steps that led into our private school. i pulled uniform blazer to straighten it out before walking inside. "who told you that?" i said. nobody ever transfers here. "maddie." he told me. "millie's friend?" i asked. "yes, the one who had a crush on you." caleb said shaking his head as we stopped at our lockers. "she had a what?" i said. i hadn't known. she was super popular, why would she have a crush on me? i mean i had a lot of friends but i wasn't the 'it guy'. caleb laughed and walked away. i walked up the stairs to the second floor of the school to my biology class and went down the hall to the classroom. my seat in that class was next to the door. a girl named sadie, one of millie's friends, ran into the room and to millie, telling her the latest exciting gossip. sadie was one of the few people to have red hair in this school. "somebody saw finn wolfhard's girlfriend in the office! like here! she's the new girl!" she basically yelled to millie, the whole class heard. millie's eyebrows raised at what sadie had said. i've listened to wolfhard's music before, i played it while doing my homework. but i didn't know he had a girlfriend, she must be lucky. millie and sadie began to whisper to eachother. the classes muffled conversations quieted down after we heard the click of our teachers heels from the down the hallway. she passed out papers that we would be doing today. there were two period's until lunch and i was already starving. i nodded off to my thoughts many times during the classes. the bell rung in my french class, finally it was lunch time. i grabbed the paper bag lunch from my backpack and left the room. raw peppers and grilled chicken. "wait up!" millie said. we were table mates in french class. she came out of the class behind me. we walked down the hallway together. "did you see the new girl yet? well eleanor, finn wolfhard's girlfriend?" she asked. eleanor? it can't be. could it? "no, i think i would know if i did." i said laughing. "she's in my geometry class, she's eating lunch with us." millie said excitedly. i nodded. my table was next to millie's. "maybe she's already there, at least madison and sadie are already there, so she knows where to sit. did you know that her and eleanor already know each other? isn't that crazy? i didn't even know." millie said. the two of us walked to the cafeteria and entered through the doors. we split ways and went to our tables that were three feet apart, i didn't even look at who was at millie's table when i sat down. my friends, including gaten and caleb were already at our table. "mommy make your meal?" my friend johnny joked at my well made lunch. she didn't make it, how could she ever make it if she's out of the house by 5:30 in the morning and comes home at eleven o'clock at night. i didn't want to look over at millie's table incase eleanor was sitting there, i was nervous. a girl i've met once can make me feel like that? "noah." i heard millie say. i looked over to her. "noah, this is eleanor. eleanor, this is noah." she said. as i looked over to the girl, she turned to me. it was her. it was eleanor, the girl who fell into my arms. my eyes widened and i froze. she looked at me the same way. "noah, i know she's pretty but you don't have to look at her like a weirdo." millie giggled. "eleanor?" i asked. "noah?" she asked. sadie laughed. "no way! they know each other!" sadie said. "is he?" maddie said to eleanor. "yup." eleanor said without taking her eyes off me. what am i? "hi." i said almost laughing. "sup." she laughed. i got up to throw the remainder of my lunch out and eleanor followed. "wait up." she said. she walked next to me and my heart beat fast. "i thought about turning around to get your number but i thought i got in your way so i didn't." she told me. "you weren't in the way at all. actually you made my day better." i said. "you made mine better too, but can i have your number?" she said passing her phone to me. i took it and entered my number into her iphone. as i typed it in, she got a text from finn wolfhard. "you got a text." i told her as i handed her phone back. "also i was wondering if you wanted to meet up at the park later. i won't fall again i promise." she joked. "sure. i won't catch you again?" i said nervously. "i-" i tried to get out before she cut me off. she laughed. "you're cute." she said still laughing. we both walked back to our tables and waited for lunch to end. she leaned over from her table to mine. "i'll meet you where i slipped." she said. "you mean where you fell and i caught you?" i laughed. she rolled her eyes and smiled. i smiled back.
