I was walking to class while admiring the locker decorations and not looking where I was going when, "Boom! Thud!" I crashed into someone and all of my books and papers were scattered all over the cold ground. I looked up only to find a super handsome boy right in front of me! "I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going." I apologized. "No, it was my fault. Here let me carry your books to class," he kindly offered. He helped me up to my feet and carefully picked up my books. "Thank you," I blushed.
As we walked to class together, I couldn't help but notice the gold locket around his neck, "What's that?" I questioned. "Oh this? It's my locket. I've had it since I was born. It has a picture of my family in it. Most of them died before I ever got a chance to meet them," he sadly remarked. "Oh I'm sorry. By the way my name is Hope." "Oh you're the girl who ruined the pep rally. Did you really do that?" "Yeah. Sorry. I didn't really understand," I started blushing again. "Hey, everyone makes mistakes," "You really believe that?" I couldn't believe he was giving me a second chance! "Yeah. It's no biggie. I mean it's just one mistake, right?" I nodded.
