Promises

First Day Of School

"Ms. Wolff," Mr. Beckham elled to me across the room.

"Uhm. Uhh. Yes. Sir?"

"Can you come up to the board and solve this equation? Considering you are a new student, and on a new student's first day, they are asked to solve a problem of somekind just to show us, as you teens say it today, 'Show us what you have got' so if you will." I got up very slowly hoping that no one would stare at me as I tried to quietly get myself up to the front of the classroom. As I got to the board, I tried to figure out the equation, hoping that I would get it right, or at least even write a few numbers down. I stared at the board and the equation read' "3.14+3.14-10.5*5=_". I finally haad the guts to write something down and layed the piece of chalk back on the carrier as I turned to the classroom filled with students with a teacher infront of it.

"Sorry Ms. Wolff, but the answer that you have writtenn down is incorrect. You may be seated."

Everyone started laughing and teasing me about how stupid I was in math. Well except for this one boy. He looked really charming and so nice. He had beautful and cacthing eyes. That were so blue, deep blue.He sorta just gave me a smile as if he were saying 'Don't mind these jerks". I smiled back and looked back to the board. After he gave me a smile everything went out of focus. It was like I was distarcted by him. Finally after a whole class of getting lost in my thoughts the bell rung. I snapped out and everyone was gone, well mostly everyone. Some were still getting there stuff ready for the next class.

"Yes sir, you wanted to see me." the blue eyed boy said.

"Ah, yes and Ms. Wolff as well." I got up with my bag on my back and walked up to Mr. Beckham's desk.

"Okay, so Ms. Wolff, I was wondering if you would like someone to help you with your math assignments after school or whenever you like."

"Like...like a tutor?" I hesitated.

"Well yes. I was thinking that Mr. Grier would be able to tutor you."

"I'm sorry, I am a little new here but who's Mr. 'Grier' ?"

"Me, I'm Hayes Grier, I would love to be your tutor if that's okay with you, we can study whenever you want to, after school, before school, during lunch. Anytime you want to, I'll be available after all I am good at math. Please?"

"Okay, that sounds good." I replied with a distracted smile.

"You look cute when you smile like that," He smirked.

"Thanks."

"Well, since Ms. Wolff is new here at Davidson Day School, let me give you two a hall pass and you can give Ms. Wolff a tour around the school."
