Cyrus, Buffy and Andi all sat at a table in front their school. They'd been best friends for-like-ever. They were having their normal conversations.

"You know I've been reading this book-" Cyrus began before he was rudely interrupted.

"That's never good." Buffy smirked at Andi. Andi giggled.

"Anyway! As I was saying. I'm reading this book and it's all about human touch. But there was this one weird chapter." Cyrus explained. Buffy and Andi raised their eyebrows.

"Are you gonna finish?" Buffy asked. Cyrus looked around and leaned closer.

"It said that everyone has a soulmate and any form of physical contact with that soulmate will make you glow." Cyrus said in a whisper full of excitement. Buffy laughed. Andi raised her eyebrows.

"Well duh. You're in love so of course You're gonna glow." Buffy chuckled. Cyrus shook his head.

"Not like that. Like glow. With light." Cyrus explained at a normal voice. Buffy nodded slowly not believing him. Cyrus sighed.

"Hey guys." a voice said from behind them. It was Jonah Beck. Cyrus' crush. They all said hi. Cyrus quickly poked Jonah's shoulder. Then he placed his hand on Jonah's shoulder and held it there hoping for it to glow.

"Um...Cy-guy...you good." Jonah furrowed his eyebrows. Buffy grabbed Cyrus' hand and pulled it off of Jonah.

"Ignore him. he's not feeling well today." Buffy raised her eyebrows at Cyrus. He rolled his eyes.

"It only said it happens to a few people so I guess I'm not one of them." Cyrus mumbled. Buffy laughed.

"Or you're not soulmates." she whispered to Cyrus elbowing him lightly. Then the bell rang and they all stood up from the picnic table. They all walked inside and headed to their first period class.

Cyrus walked into his math class to see that there was only one seat left. It was next to Tj Kippen. Everyday people changed their seats and the teacher didn't even care. And now he had to sit next to the school bully. Cyrus always heard that he was a jerk.

He sat down next to him full of nervousness. He began the warm up. He couldn't help but notice Tj looking over at his notebook. He raised his head and looked at Tj.

"May I help you?" He asked raising his eyebrows. Tj shook his head and looked at his paper.

Tj has dyscalculia and he didn't want anyone to know. He didn't even pay attention to it himself. He was embarrassed.

He'd always watched Cyrus from a distance. He wanted really bad to be his friend, but he'd always been scared.

Tj placed his pencil down and it began rolling over to Cyrus' desk. He caught it and his pinkie lightly touched Cyrus'. He could've sworn he saw a tiny glare of light when their pinkies touched. He shrugged it off and continued his work secretly looking at Cyrus' paper.
