Who Would've Guessed

Chapter 1

Kailee's POV

I lay back on my beach chair and close my eyes, feeling the warm sun kissing my face. Holding a cold drink in my hand i think to myself, 'this is perfect'. Just then i get splashed with cool water, i scream and open my eyes to see my gorgeous husband shaking his hair, just getting out of the pool. My eyes travel down to his body. He's gotten a nice tan in these last few days and now with those water droplets all over...

"Kailee!" I jump as i hear Mr. Harper yell my name.

"Yes?" I mumble, realizing i had been in dream land and not heard a single thing he had been talking about. I hear people around me snicker.

"Can you answer the question?" He asks. I stare blankly at him not knowing what to say. Just then the bell rings. Thank goodness i think to myself. I grab my books and head to my locker. I place the books neatly in my locker and start to head out the door when someone stops me.

"Hey Red," i hear. I stop and turn around to see 3 cheerleaders standing infront of me. I roll my eyes. Amber with her long, straight, perfect brown hair is always being followed around by a preppy Madison with short, blonde hair and Hailey with dark brown curls. And they love making fun of my red hair, but i don't mind it.

"What do you want?" I ask nicely, not wanting to give them a reason to hate me.

"Who were you dreaming about in class today? You don't even have a date for prom," Amber laughs. She's probably going with Alec, the hunky quarterback.

"Yeah all you can do is dream about it," Hailey chimes in. Then they all giggle and walk away. Whatever, i think to myself and head to my old white civic. I turn on the radio and drive home.

Alec's POV

I sit in class, last period of the day, barely hearing a thing. I run my hand through my thick black hair. I'm just waiting for this to be over and get to football practice to get my mind off of things.

The bell rings, snapping me back to reality. I jump up, grab my things and jog to my locker. I dump my books in there and grab my gear, heading to the change room getting changed, then i head outside.

After practice we all hit the showers and then go outside. I'm about to hop in my red ford ranger when i hear someone call my name.

"Alec!" Nick calls. He runs up to me then brushes his blonde hair out of his eyes.

"What's up?" I ask.

"Some of us guys were gonna go check out that new diner on main street, you wanna join us?"

I think about it for a second then my stomach grumbles loudly and i realize I'm hungry.

"Okay i could go for some food," i respond. "It better be good."

He hops in my truck and in a few minutes we're there. Josh pulls up beside us with his green sentra, 2 guys with him, Stephen and Derrick. We head inside and find a table that sits 5 people and start looking through the menu. The waitress comes and greets us with a warm smile and we order our food. About 20 minutes later we're digging into the delicious wings, crispy onion rings, and saucy ribs infront of us.

"So Alec," Josh starts. I look up and he continues. "Are you and Amber going to prom together." He asks but it doesn't really sound like a question, i guess everyone assumes we're going together.

I shrug my shoulders. "I haven't asked anyone yet." She's pretty but I'm not really interested in her. "Do you guys know that cute redhead's name?" I ask and they look at me in shock. No one knows her name but I'm not surprised because really the only time i see her is when I'm in the library and none of the guys go in there.

So i find out Nick is going with Hailey, Josh asked Amanda and Derrick is going with Madison. Stephen hasn't aksed anyone yet.

We finish our food and Nick pays for it, taking his turn and then we all head home.
