(Carter's POV) 

I remember my first day of middle school. The sun was shining on this perfect summer day. New school, new social life, and new people. I'm wearing a black graphic tee with some black jeans even though it's still summer. Now I didn't know how middle school was going to be like I just saw it as a bridge between elementary school and high school. I didn't think what happened in middle school would happen, but I'll save that for later. Now let's get back to my first day of school. The doors opened at 8:35, everyone was lined up ready to head inside. Teachers were standing outside of their classrooms, greeting the students and directing us to our homerooms. I walked into classroom 60. There were kids already sitting at tables, some I recognized from elementary school, and some were new faces that I'll soon know. A woman who looked in her mid-20s walked in and announced herself as Ms. Vincenty. She then proceeded to call our names and hand us our schedules for the year.

After a short welcome to middle school from Ms. Vincenty, the bell rang for 1st period. After getting lost a couple of times, I finally made it to my first period. My first period was Spanish with Ms. Anderson. The whole period was her introducing herself to us. 2nd, 3rd, and 4th were pretty much the same. I got to 5th period and picked a seat. The late bell rang, and Mr. Milner closed the door and proceeded to introduce himself like all my teachers before. I looked up, and this black haired girl caught my eye. She had the most amazing eyes. She seemed so concentrated on her work; I couldn't help but stare.

"Carter...Carter..earth to Carter." Mr. Milner said

I blinked a couple of times then looked up at him

"Uh...yes?.." I said

"What were you thinking about?" He asked.

"Um..just thinking about the new school and seven teachers..so you know a lot on my mind."

"Ah, I get it. Can you answer a question for me?"

"Sure what question?"

"When's your birthday?"

"December 13th Sir."

"Oh, the same day as my son."

He then moved on from me to ask the black haired girl her name.

"Edwards, Grace Edwards" she responded

He went around the class asking everyone the same questions of what's your name and when's your birthday. The bell rang when he finished. As I was leaving, I ran into someone, and we both fell on the floor. I picked up the persons glasses and the purple binder off the floor.

"Hey, I'm sorry I didn't mean to...um..uh...hi" I stuttered

She searched the floor for her glasses.

"It's fine. Can you help me find my glasses?" She softly asked.

"Oh uh, I have them right here."

She looked up, and I slowly placed the glasses on her.

"Oh...uh...hi thank you." She mumbled.

"I believe this is yours too," I said as I held out her binder.

"Yeah! Thank you." She said with a smile.

I heard someone call her from the background.

"I better go, um thank you for the help and sorry for running into you." She said as she ran off. I picked up my stuff and continue on my day with a smile.

The next few days were the same nothing exciting, but the long-awaited 5th period came. I got to class, and on the Promethean board, there was a seating chart. I looked for my name and saw that I was seated next to a girl named Pia and a guy named James. I sat down in my seat and pulled out a journal and started writing. Writing what you asked, I don't have the faintest idea. I was writing my thoughts and what came to mind. The bell rang, and Mr. Milner started talking. While he was talking, I saw a hand land on my desk, and a crumpled piece of paper was left there. I looked around puzzled as I slowly opened the piece of paper. It read. Do you like me? I looked around confused at who could have given this to me. No one I saw was looking at me. No one looked out of the ordinary, so I crumbled the piece of paper up again and put it in my pocket. I continue with my work, and every once an awhile, I'll exchange glances with Grace. The bell rang for the end of class, and as I grabbed my stuff, I saw a girl come up to me. Her name was Nyah.

"Hey, your name is Carter, right?" She asked

"Uh..um..yeah?...Did I do something wrong?"I asked softly.

"So this is the Carter she's talking about," she mumbled

"Sorry, what was that?" I asked.

"Oh, nothing just talking to myself." She says with a smile as she walks away. I was left there confused for a while and wondered what she meant. I pushed the thought away and continued with my day.

Day one out of....182, I swear I didn't look that up (Carter)

182!?!?!?!?!? (Violet)

Yes, Violet, there are 182 days of school and 104 days of summer vacation

Oh.....my bad...

What did you think I was talking about

How many days it took us to come back to this story. But I would still look stupid because isn't it around...

ALRIGHT I GET YOUR POINT, don't you have your part to write

Why did you have to remind me

To get you to stop talking about my mistakes, and talk about the real reason's we are here

But... I can't follow up after your chapter. It's too good and detailed.

Sure whatever let's see yours.
