Song for chapter: Feel something by: James young

{some people cross your path and change your whole direction}

4th period
[ MADISON]

My pencil gently tapped on the familiar and smooth wood that lie as my desk. Listening to the exact same speech in every class is really getting old.

"Okay well since that's all I have to tell you guys, why don't you guys all talk for the last 15 minutes?" Mrs. Olsen, the reading/language teacher, said with a smile on her face causing the whole class to go wild.

Mrs. Olsen is one of my favorite teachers. She's so sweet and I love to write so I don't hate this class. Mrs. Olsen is pretty young maybe around 25 so she's super sweet. She remembers being in school so i think she knows how we feel.

I got snapped out of my thoughts by Mrs. Olsen saying my name.

"Madison, can you come here?" She said with a sweet smile.

I returned one with a small nod and got up. I walked to her desk, stopping in front of it with a smile.

"Can I ask for a small favor" she said forming her hand into a small pinch shape symbolizing the word "small"

"oh of course" I smiled while she handed me a piece of paper.

"Can I ask you to go down to the library and get those books" she said pointing to the paper.

"Yep" I said as she smiled and returned to her typing.

I walked down the long vacant hallways with thoughts running through my head. My mind keeps coming back to that guy. He was attractive, mysterious, I like that. I haven't felt this way since... well him.

I never want to go back to my old habits and have it repeat. It's the worst thing that's ever happened to me. I'll never forget about him. god, I miss him. We both do.

My hand gripped the cold handle as I pulled it open, as I entered the library. I exchanged a few "hi"'s with some randoms who knew me. The feeling wasn't mutual, I didn't know one person who said "hi." but I guess that's what being " popular" is.

-

I grabbed the last book off one of the old book shelves that no one used. Well except for the teachers. I turned, but instantly got push down by what felt like a huge wall. Wow, am I really that stupid? Like come one Madison who runs into a wall?

I looked up and was almost instantly shook. It was the boy I saw earlier. Woah, he was even more stunning up close. It's like he was sculpted by god himself. I quickly got up and and smiled a small smile.

"I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention, are you okay?" I asked hoping I didn't hurt him. But what am I saying? A guy like that wouldn't get hurt by a smile 112 pound girl.

He looked me up and down and rolled his eyes. He slammed his shoulder into mine causing me to stumble again as he walked past me carelessly.

"Woah what a dick!" I said to myself as I bent down to pick up the books I dropped.

"I'm sorry" someone said as I looked up as i finished picking up the final book.

It was the boy that he was with this morning. The less attractive, but still sculpted by the gods, boy. He had a sweet smile planted on his lips.

"He's different. He shouldn't have been that rude though." He said with the same smile still on his face.

"oh um... it's fine. No worries. You guys new?" I said wanted to know.

"Oh yea. We moved here from jersey" he said while running his hand through his hair.

"You don't look like a jersey boy" I laughed. He laughed as well due to my sarcastic words.

"What? I don't have the jersey accent?" He said but the ending in a "jersey" accent causing me to laugh harder.

"No you don't really" I said with a light laugh. "But welcome to Illinois" I said softly.

"Well thanks. By the way I'm Grayson" he said while putting his hand out for me to shake.

I took his hand which was surprisingly soft.

"Madison. Madison Bell" I smiled introducing myself.

"The guy that bumped into you is Ethan. He's my twin. He seems immature but surprisingly he's older." Grayson said with a laugh.

"Oh okay. Well it was nice meeting you Grayson but I better head back to class" I said, as he nodded his head.

"Nice meeting you too." Grayson said while smirking.

I smiled and turned around on my heel and headed back to class.
