Chapter 1.

Alex's P.O.V.

I woke up to the sound of a car beeping. I check my phone and I see a text from my best friend.

Ash: Get your ass down here we are going to be late for school.

I check the time and it says 6:30, school starts at 7. I jumped out of my bed and threw on a grey hoodie and black joggers, I don't need to do my hair because it's short and curly. I run down stairs and say bye to my mom while I run out the house.

"It's about damn time." Ash says.

I take a moment to catch my breath, "Hello to you too." I say smiling. Ash stares at me for a second and rolls her eyes and starts her car to head off to school. It didn't take us long to get there, probably because Ash sped down the streets like a crazy person.

"You're going to kill us one day." I say as she parks.

"That day isn't today, now let's go before we are late." She says as she jumps out her car leaving me behind. I laugh and made my way into the school. Once I get inside I get a few stares from people which makes me feel uncomfortable.

"Why do I feel like people always stare at me?" I ask.

"Probably because you're known for your looks." Ash says.

I honestly don't know why my looks have anything to do with the stares but I shrug it off. Ash and I go our separate ways, I go inside my photography class and immediately I see Logan and he looks like he's about to knock out. I walk over to him and slam my bag on the table and he nearly falls off his seat, I laugh and sit down while he glares at me.

"Asshole." He mumbles.

"I heard that. Besides, why are you so tired?" I ask.

"Two words, baby brother." Logan's mom had a baby four months ago but she had to go back to work after a while so Logan watches him for her and he could be a handful. I was about to say something but was cut off by the teacher.

"Alright class today we will be starting a project that will be due the first week of next month. I will be picking you guys partners." Mr. Rodriguez says.

Great. Now I gotta act nice to somebody who I don't care on getting to know. As he calls out who's going to be working together, I start drawing in my notebook.

"Alexandria Green and Alida Santos." I hear him say and I cringe hearing my full name being used. I've never heard of anyone named Alida in this class, I look around until I see someone sit in-front of me. I think I was holding my breath because I was breathing pretty fast after a while. She stared at me with her big brown eyes, her hair was in a bun and she wore a black hoodie.

"Hey." I finally breathed out.

"Hi." She whispers. She spoke so low I barely heard what she said.

"The project is on getting to know someone, hence why you guys are with new people. At the end of this project you each have to write an essay telling us about the person you met." Mr. Rodriguez says.

Well that sounds boring. I look over to Alida and she's not even paying attention, she's looking outside the window. The sun makes her light brown skin which makes her look beautiful. The bell rings signaling the end of class and Alida gets up and starts to make her way out the classroom. She didn't tell me how I can reach her so we can work on the project so I grabbed her hand and she almost looked frightened, she snatched her hand back and ran out the class.

What did I do?
