***FLASHBACK***

We meet in 7th grade.

" I told you I suck at chess. I don't even know how to play."

These people always trying to make me do something at this school. I barley know anyone. These people being my friend,Suzie. She has been trying to bring me to this class club for weeks. I only agreed today because I didn't want to go home early today. Mad at my parents for making me bring my little sister to my friend's birthday party.

"Athena! Come on you will have fun. Plus, there's a cute boy there named Noah."

I'm not going to lie cute boy, has sparked my interest.

"I'll go only today, but if I don't like it i'm not coming back."

She screams yay and continues to drag me to the room where the chess club meets. We get there and it's more people then I expect there. Like at least 20 or more. We walk in and first we meet the teacher her name was Ms. Raymoud. She was young or young looking. It was kinda hard to tell her age since she was asian.

After we talked to the teacher, Suzie and I walked around while she introduced me to people. I felt so new. Not knowing anyone sucks. I met five new people until I heard...

"Damn it man! How?"

A boy yelled pretty loud. He must have lost. Being curious I walk over.

"Suzie i'll be right back."

She nods her head and i walk to where that boy yelled from. It was a group of people around two boys who had finished a game. One of them was on his phone like nothing happened, while the other is studying the board. I'm going to guess the one on his phone was the one who won.

I looked at him, and he glanced at me. He was hot. Suzie must have been talking about him. Well if she was she doesn't know what cute and hot are. He was wearing a black snap back, a shirt with Dragon Ball Z Goku on it. This boy cute and likes anime. BIIIIIITTTTCCCCCHHHHH. Like come one. Then he had on some jeans and black converse. He's wearing my babies, my baby converse.

"Who wants to play next?"

He asks while still looking down at his phone. Nobody says anything. Is he so good or something? Well then why not let's try.

"I'll try."

I sit in front of him and he smirks.

"I haven't seen you here before you must be new. Since you must be new I'll take off my queen to give you a advantage. I'll play you without my queen."

With or without his queen i'm still gonna lose. I only know how the pieces move. But I just nod my head. I'm black so I go after him. The game starts and everytime he moves he goes on his phone like the game is just a breeze. He ends up taking some of my ponds, one of my rooks, both bishops, and nun of my knights. I take his knights, a rook and a bishop.

I'm so gonna lose. Our game was still going on after 4 minutes, so a few people came around to watch. Then I end up taking all his pieces with my knights and when he looks up from his phone to move he looks at the board confused.

"Wait. What? How?"

The crowd around us gasps. I won, but I stay quiet.

"MS.RAYMOUD SOMEONE FINALLY BEAT NOAH!"

The teacher rushed over and looked at the board then at me. Then she smiled.

" The new student beat our best player. Everyone her name is Athena."

Then Suzie came rushing over and hugged me.

"You beat him? How? I thought you couldn't play?"

"I can't play. I got lucky I guess."

Noah was looking at his phone. Rude much, ain't even going to say good game. Rude ass. So I walk away with Suzie. This club isn't so bad i'll come again, but that boy needs to learn manners. What's his name? Noah? Yeah I heard someone shout that.

Hopefully Noah isn't a rude ass next time.

***End of Flashback***

I smiled remembering the memory. He was such a asshole when he lost. I wonder if he still plays. I see a car coming up the street. I hope it's him. It pulls up and it's a red cadillac. The car cuts off and a man steps out the car.

"Noah?"

"Who else would come get you after you call them and say you need a friend?"

I hug him and he hugs me back. It has been such a long time. Then I my eyes start to water and I cry a little.

"Come on Athena let's go to my house and talk. Plus I bought some pizza and ice cream."

I nod my head, wipe my tears, and pick up my bags. I put my stuff in the back seat next to the boxes of pizzas. Then we drive to his house.
