~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Parker was pretty much bouncing in his seat out of pure excitement as his mom pulled up in front of his new school. Most people don't usually look forward to starting over at a new school with new people but Parker was absolutely thrilled to be away from the hell that his old school had become. They were in the middle of the second semester of his sophomore year which kind of sucked but Parker was willing to jump right in, meet new people, and be one year closer to graduating.

"Are you sure you don't want me to walk you in?" Parker looked over at his mother and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

"I'm a big boy, mom. I got this,"He said with a reassuring smile.

His mom sighed. "I know, sweetie. I know." Parker got out of the car and slung his book bag over his shoulder. He waved to his mom as she began to drive away and then began to make his way up to the front doors. When he got inside, he instantly spotted the front office and decided that he should probably go there to get his schedule.

"Hi. Um, it's my first day and I need my schedule,"Parker said nervously to the woman who was sitting behind the desk.

"Name?"

"Parker Wood."

"Ah! Here you are. I've heard that you are a very bright boy. I can't wait to see what you can do,"Said the woman as she handed him the schedule. Parked blushed and the paper from her. He began walking out the door when he heard the woman's voice again.

"Oh! And, Parker, one more thing."

Parker turned around and smiled politely. "Yes, ma'am?"

"Welcome to Dulaney High School."

~~~~~~~~~~

Parker was looking down at the piece of paper in his hands that told him what classes he had and wandered the halls aimlessly, trying to find his first class. He was already 3 minutes late to his first period class. Parker Wood is never late. So far, this first day of school wasn't going too well.

"Fuck,"Parker muttered, getting frustrated. Not paying attention he ran right into someone and caused them to drop all of their books. "Fuck!"Parker repeated and snapped his head up to look at the other person. And good God, he was glad he did.

The boy was absolutely gorgeous. He had carmel brown hair that was partially hidden by a grey beanie and beautiful chocolate brown eyes. There was a bit of stubble on his blemish-free face and his eyebrows were extremely bushy. He wore a figure-hugging black v-neck under a red and black plaid shirt and black skinny jeans that showed off his great figure. Good god, this was Parker's dream boy.

"I... uh I'm so sorry!"Parker said once he was finished admiring the boy's beauty and leaned over to help pick up the books that the boy had dropped.

"Nah, don't worry about it,"The boy said. His voice was deep and smooth and Parker was pretty sure that he could listen to him talk all day.

"No, I wasn't looking where I was going,"Parker gushed and handed the biology textbook and green notebook back to the other boy. The boy nodded and eyed Parker up and down.

"You new here? I don't think I've seen you before." Parker nodded.

"Yeah, I just moved here from Memphis, Tennessee. I'm Parker Wood,"He said holding his hand out to the brunette.

"Oh cool. I'm Alex Gaskarth. I knew you couldn't be from here because of that Southern accent. It's cute though,"Alex said, shaking a heavily blushing Parker's hand. "Do you know where you're going?" Parker shook his head and handed Alex his schedule. "Hey, we have all of our classes together! Come on!"Alex said with a smile and Parker noticed that his front teeth were a bit bigger than the rest of his teeth and made his look kind of like a rabbit. An extremely hot rabbit.

Parker followed Alex down the hall to their first period class: Biology.

First period went by fairly quickly, as did the next two classes. Alex showed him where all his classes were and Parker was pretty god damn thankful that he ran into Alex in the hall. They were now going to lunch where Alex insisted that he meet his friends. The pair went through the lunch line and made their way to a table where three other guys were already sitting and seemed to be having a pretty heated debate over something.

"Guys,"Alex said drawing the attention on him. He gestured to Parker and said, "This is Parker. He just moved here from Tennessee. Parker this is Jack, Rian and Zack." He pointed to each boy as he said their name.

"Hey, Parker!" The boy Alex pointed out as Rian said smiling at him. God damn, his teeth were WHITE. Rian was a fairly big dude. He had closely shaven hair and brown eyes. He wore a black t-shirt with the arms cut off and cargo shorts. He seemed like he would be a pretty nice guy. Parker returned the greeting and realized that he was now the only one standing and sat down beside Alex.

"What were we talking about?"Alex said taking a bit of his peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

The boy who was apparently Jack said, "I wanna them to turn up my mic for our gig on Friday but Rian and Zack won't let me! They said that my annoying voice would scare away all the fans! Bullshit! Bullshit, I say!"

Jack was fucking tall, Parker could tell that even when he was sitting down. He had black hair with a few streaks of blond here and there and he was really fucking skinny. There was a hint of stubble on his chin and he had brown eyes to match Alex's. He wore a dark grey blink-182 shirt and red skinny jeans. Parker smiled slightly at what Jack had said and spoke up.

"Wait, you guys are in a band?"

"Yeah. We're called All Time Low. And we're pretty good, if I do say so myself,"The last boy, Zack, said. Zack was huge. His arms were probably the size of Parker's head so it was no secret that this guy cared about his body. He had short, dark brown hair and hazel eyes. His face was free of any kind of stubble and he had a silver hoop in his nose.

"Yeah! You should come to our gig on Friday! I mean, if you're not busy..."Alex said with a grin.

Holy fucking shit. Alex was inviting him somewhere and they had only just met. Maybe Alex liked him! No probably not. They had only just met for God's sakes!

"Okay,"Parker said and took a bit out of his own sandwich.

First day of school and he had already made three friends. And the fact that one of those friends could make his heart melt just by looking at him with those big, beautiful brown eyes was just icing on the cake.
