"So who is this new lad at your school?"
Harry asked me sitting down next to me on the sofa. I flicked through the channels searching my mind for the name.
"I can't remember his name but Milo knows him, he came over from America."
I told him now watching, the Great British Bake Off.
"All I know that he is trouble apparently, wanted to come over here for a normal life."
I continued, Harry started to think.
"Is his name Nick by any chance?"
He asked me getting his phone out.
"Yeah, maybe. Actually I'm not too sure."
I tried to think harder. Harry showed me a photo of this 'nick' guy.
"Yeah that's him."
I said as I looked at the photo.
"Whatever you do, don't talk to him."
Harry looked at me worried.
"And whys that?"
I asked intrigued to why everyone was so weary of this boy.
"Aiden, I'm telling you, he's not good news."
He then got up and walked away without an explanation. Now this just makes me want to get to know him more, there's something so interesting about this boy and I'm going to find out why everyone's saying to stay away from him-everyone being Milo and Harry.

The first day of school is tomorrow and I'm definitely not looking forward to it. School is just not for me. Probably because I'm thick but I can't do anything. I have an attention span of a gold fish. I can't sit still for like 10 seconds never mind a full hour in a lesson. That's mainly why I get told off a lot. Harry doesn't mind though, he understands its hard for me. It's only us two. I live with him seeing as our parents aren't very nice. He's all I need though.

I walk up the stairs and headed to my room getting ready for bed. I heard a knock at my door.
"Someone's downstairs to see you."
Harry told me. It took me a while to realise that I didn't have any friends accept from Milo. Harry must have saw a light bulb go off in my head as he laughed just before I shot up and sprinted down the stairs. At the bottom of them was Milo with lots of luggage. I jumped into him arms and wrapped my legs around my waist.
"Happy to see me?"
He chuckled in my ear.
