Love At First Sight

01

A/N
Hey readers, welcome to my first ever book. Really hope you guys love it!
Note: I wrote this book during my ages of thirteen and fourteen so the book is so cliché and probably has grammar mistakes. But it's almost done editing. Thank you for your time, and I hope you enjoy reading Love At First Sight.

It's Monday morning, the day every student dreads. Even though I'm seen as the nerd or geek of the 12th grade, I also hate Mondays.

I try to get out of bed but I don't succeed. I give my mind a little motivation and after 5 minutes, I'm finally up.

I reluctantly trudge out of bed, my hair looking worse than a bird nest. I for one don't like my hair. It's a bit wavy, chocolate-brown, and reaches to my shoulder.

I have a quick shower and brush my teeth, in and out of the bathroom in 10 minutes. I check the table clock at my bedside: 7:30. Only 30 more minutes 'til school starts.

Rolling my eyes, I pick out something to wear. I don't really care about what I wear, unlike my best friend, Rhylee. Rhylee and I are the complete opposite, even though we're best friends. She's pretty, stylish, and has all the boys chasing after her. I on the other hand, well, I'm just me.

I finally pick out something simple and casual; a white t-shirt with a heart in the middle, and a pair of deep blue skinny jeans accompanied with white converse shoes. I then run a comb through my hair.

I head downstairs and say a quick hello to my mum. I'm an only child and I don't live with my dad. He's all the way working in England, but comes to California every five months. He only stays for a week or two sometimes.

"Hey honey, did you sleep well last night?"

"Um, I guess? What's for breakfast mum?"

"Pancakes!"

"I'll have five of them. To go please." I quickly add.

She laughs and puts five pancakes in a Ziplock bag. She squirts a little syrup into a small take-away bowl, puts the lid on it, and hands them to me.

I hear the familiar BMW horn outside and give my mother a little peck on her cheek.

"Bye, mum!" I say, dashing out the door.

"Bye Sam! Say hello to Rhylee for me!"

"Will do!"

I really love my mum. She's the most caring, most understanding person I've ever seen. She really works hard to give me an education and put food on my plate.

"Hey Rhyls" I say as I step into the passenger seat of the BMW.

"Hmm," she says eyeing me, "Did you actually spend more than a minute picking out your outfit today? 'Cause if you did, then WOW. You actually look a lot more prettier today. I've taught you well." She says with a smirk on her face.

I roll my eyes and sarcastily say, "Gee, thanks a lot Rhyls (in a more serious tone). But seriously, do you think I actually look pretty today?" I say, my face beaming.

"If I say you're pretty, then believe me, you are pretty. Hey, feels like Zachary's gonna notice someone today." She says while wiggling her eyebrows.

I groan and say "For the millionth time, Rhylee, I don't have a crush on Zachary."

"Not according to what happened in the 9th grade."

In the 9th grade, it was rumoured that me and Zachary were dating. It was all a misunderstanding. Our science teacher, Miss Humphrey paired the both of us for a science project.

I would always follow him home after school to work on the project and of course, people started getting suspicious. We were always seen together in the hallways discussing the project (we were both A students and wanted to get a good grade on that project).

There was a time we were playing Truth or Dare in school and someone dared Zack to kiss me and he did. So that arose their suspicions and the rumour started spreading.

"I thought we both agreed never to bring up that topic again." I reminded her.

"Yeah, I know. Sorry 'bout that. So, what did mummy prepare for us to eat this moring? I'm starving."

"Pancakes!"

"Yay!"

Rhylee parked the car by the roadside and the both of us dug in. We both love pancakes.

Ten minutes later, we pulled into the parking lot of Higgins High School. Time to begin this dreadful day.
