BRIIIINNNNGG! BRINNNG! Thats the hideous noise I wake up to on a Monday morning. Ugh I swear some days I wanna shatter that thing! "Ray, get your butt out of bed or your gonna be late for school!" yelled my birth giver. Well thats the life of me, Journey Ray but I hate my name so I just go by Ray. Dragging myself out of bed doing the normal routine, shower, brushing my teeth, a little makeup, and I'm not even gonna start on my untamed hair. It never does what I want so I just brush it and head down stairs to see my beautiful mother. Its obvious I didn't inheirit her beauty, it's hard to believe she's still single, I mean she's dated other guys since my douche of a Dad left us when she was pregnant with me. "Honey it's 7:45 your gonna be late" she stated she was already ready for work. I grabbed my keys and headed for the door. "Be careful, I love you" " I love you to and I'm always careful" I called as I shut the door behind me. It didn't take long to reach school I took the normal route that I normally have for the past 4 years. Pulling into the school parking lot, I was in deep thought of the past summer it was terrible, bzzzz bzzzz, it took me a second to realize that I just got a text. I don't even have to guess I know it's my childhood bestfriend. Riley: Hey Biotch, u ready for the first day of hell :p Me: Ecstatic, wru? Riley: Pulling in meet you up front. Me: k see u then. It didn't take long to see her she always wears fun yet crazy clothes. She's about 5'5 with long brown hair and big hazel eyes. Me and Riley have been friends since we were in diapers, maybe even before that. She's really more like a sister that I always wanted, but it's just my mom and me and I have to admit I like it that way. "I can't believe we are seniors!" she squeled as she brought me into a suffocating hugg. "Riles caa-nnt brea-thee" I gasped "Sorry, I'm just so excited" "For school?" I asked in a suprised tone "No because we are no longer kids" "I worry about you sometimes" I stated laughing. She just rolled her eyes as we made our way to our first class. I hate the first day of school it's always the same, I pretty much think we all know the rules, well some of us do anyway. Riley was sitting beside me sleeping which wasn't suprising, yet she states she's no longer a kid, I smiled at the thought. Finally the bell rang signaling that class was over, I laughed as Riley jumped with slober on her chin and desk, looking alarmed like a bomb just went off. "Shut up it's not funny" She snaped, while I wiped the tears from my eyes. "Someone didn't get enough beauty sleep" I chuckled as she gave me the famous I'm not in the mood look. We made our way to our lockers, I watched as she went down the hall to her own. We didn't have second period together, which sucks cause I don't really talk to anyone but her. I have a weird thing about letting people in. I don't like to get close to people because in the end you always get hurt. I turned to get my books out of my locker when a very tall guy went to the locker to the left of mine I could barely see his hair over my locker door. Shrugging I got my stuff and turned to walk to class, when I found myself falling. Damn what did I hi,t a brick wall? I tried to stand up only to fall right back down. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry I didn't see you there". When I finally realized what just happend, I looked up meeting the bluest eye's I've ever seen. The owner was a very, very hot guy. I couldn't breathe and I doubt that it was because of the fall. He was the most beautiful guy I've ever seen, I normally don't call a guy beautiful but I couldn't think of another word to explain how breathtaking he was. He cleared his throat, oh no he caught me staring at him like some lovesick puppy. I felt my cheeks heat up "Are you ok, that was a pretty rough fall" he asked, god even his voice was sexy. Am I dreaming I thought, well if I am I never want to wake up. "Ye-yea I'm fine" I stated "Do you need to go to the nurse?" he asked his voice full of concern. "No I'm fine" I lied, I was not fine my head was still trying to wrap my head around how beautiful he was. "I really am sorry, I didn't see you." "It's ok not many people see me" I muttered, it was the truth I don't talk to anyone but Riley and when she's not around I just keep to myself. He raised an eyebrow like he was waiting for me to tell him I was joking. "Well my name is Jason, Jason James" he stated, while waiting for me to give him my name. "Journey Ray but I go by Ray" I said while picking my books up off the ground trying to stand up with the help of Jason. "You have a beautiful name, it's very nice to meet you Ray, even under these circumstances" he said nevously, stuffing his hands in his pockets "Nice to meet you to, are you new here?" I asked, by this time the halls were starting to clear out and I knew the bell was gonna ring any second "Yea I am, I just moved here from Canada" " Thats cool, hope you enjoy your first day" I nodded my head ending the conversation, turning to head to my next class. " Whats your next period?" he asked following along beside me. "History, you?" "Well Ray, looks I'm walking to class with you" he winked. Oh my goodness what kind of affect does this boy have on me. I just nodded in reply with my cheeks on fire. We both got to class and made our way to sit down just in time for the bell to ring. I took my seat and noticed he took his, which happend to be the one right beside mine. Great just great more torture, I thought while keeping my head down theres definately no way I will be able to focus now. I'm just glad RIley doesn't have this class with me I really didn't want to explain what happend yet. It was so hard not to stare at him the whole time, but I would feel his eyes on me accasionally. "Class, I know this is the first day but you all have a partner project that will be handed to me at the end of the year, about your favorite time in history" "I would like everyone to look to the person on their right" we all did as we were told and my eyes met Jason's " Now introduce yourselves to your new partner" Mr. Lindquist exclaimed. Oh god not only do I have to be in class with him beside me, we have to work on a year long project together! "I'm Jason James it's nice to meet you partner" he said with a crooked smile. OMG!
