Finally I hear the bell ring signaling the start of my third class of the day, which is a huge relief in my opinion. After I had finally made it to the office and collected my new time table, Lia showed me the way to my first class of the day , History (insert internal eye roll here).

I mean don't get me wrong, I love history but I don't love sitting next to an antisocial jerk as much. So turns out one of Masons friends River ,black hair extremely attractive, is now the person who I will be sat next to for who knows how long .

I mean it wouldn't be so bad if he actually tried to make any form of conversation with me or even acknowledge my existence, but I swear he didn't even look at me once.

So for that class I ended up sitting in silence, not even bothering to attempt to get River to talk to me and then for my next class I moved onto Art.

For that class I just sat at the back of the room on my own, completely immersed in my acrylic painting to the point where I actually didn't bother trying to make any new friends.

And here I am now, sat in English, waiting for mr. Lane to arrive. There are only two more seats available in our class, which both happen to be on either side of me.

Please let there be two extra seats in my class, I silently pray just as the door swings open with a crash. My head jolts towards the source of the noise, only to see Mason and River strolling into the classroom like they own the place.

Why do you do this! I silently yell to whoever is controlling my fate above, whilst letting out an exasperated sigh which seems to attract the unwanted attention of Mason.

He slightly smirks as he makes the inevitable journey over to the only two seats left in class, River following silently behind.

I decide to shift over one seat so at least then I only have to suffer with the company of one of them.

I'm brought out of my silent chain of thoughts by an annoying voice speaking to me.

"Hey Rose" Mason smirks at me

"Don't call me that" I mutter through gritted teeth whilst giving him my best dirty look I could conjure.

I hate that nickname. I really do. It makes me feel like a weak, damsel in distress similar to how I would feel when my father was around. At the mere mention of my father I feel tears prick at my eyes, however I refuse to let my emotions show in front of two utter strangers.

I glance over at Mason only to find him carefully studying my wrist with his eyebrows furrowed, however as soon as he notices me glancing his way his facial expressions are quickly changed to unreadable once again. Only then did I realize that my scars were on show and I was quick to pull my cardigan down and wipe them out of anyone's sight.
