"Thanks mom!" I say as I step out of my car, arriving at my new college, New Jersey High. I'm 17 years old and starting my first year of college. "Love you!" She calls as I head towards to entrance gates, searching for my friends.
I catch James and Emma on a bench near the lunch canteen and wave over too them. "James! Emma!" I call.
Emma runs up to me and hugs me. "Maddi!! I'm so glad you made it. This year is honestly going to be blast" She squeals. Emma has always had an amazing sense of fashion and I kinda envied her. However, she was so down to earth and my closest friend since 2nd grade. James eventually makes his way up, sipping a 'pinkity drinkity' as he loves to call them. "Hi sister!!" He says hugging me tightly. "Hey james. I love your eye makeup!" I say, loving the new nude autumn shades he had on. James loved makeup and dressing up, and was very much gay. But proud. And that's what I loved about him.

We all walk down the hallways, searching for our lockers. My key read A74, so I left Emma and James to search for my locker, and promised to meet them in Chemistry next.

As I near my locker, I notice two tall and well built boys standing next to mine. I stare at ones back, amazed by the muscles. I snapped out of it, I knew only too well what happens with these types of people.

I stand infront of my locker but one boy, with slightly longer hair, is leaning just over the door. I roll my eyes and take a deep breath. "Um excuse me?" He turns around and I lose my breath. He. Is. So. Hot. I find myself staring into his deep eyes. "Oh sorry" He says, laughing a little. I blush and turn to my locker, smiling at him. He leans round the door and pokes me. "Hey, what's your name?" He says, still looking directly into my eyes. "Maddison Edwards" I say, shutting my locker door and leaning against it. The other twin steps round infront of me. He is also so beautiful but there was something about the other that drew me in. "I'm Ethan," he began. "And this," He pointed at the twin infront me of me, with shorter, radiant blonde hair and a shaved eyebrow "Is Grayson" He grinned at me, looking up and down. Grayson felt more intimidating than Ethan, and definitely more interested in my looks than getting to know me personally, like Ethan. Still, I listened on.

"What's your insta by the way?" Ethan asks, taking out his phone. I get mine out too and open instagram. "_Maddisonedwards" I say. "And with two s'" I add. He grins. "Thanks. I guess we'll chat later." He says, walking off as the bell goes off. Grayson smiles for what seems like the first time and leaves a quiet "Cya Maddi" after.

I'm left propped up against my locker, blushing. Then, I snap out of it and
rush down the hall, excited to find Emma and James.
