Annabelle stared at the chalk board in the classroom staring blank it seemed everyone was writing what was written on the board but she alone.

It was a few days from her birthday, she was now seventeen. She didn't feel any different than before, except for exterior appearance,she grew an inch or two in height, and her hair also already past her waist.

Annabelle felt different among her colleagues because of she was the only one among the girls who had just hit the seventeen mark.

"Are you paying attention Ms. Vaughn Stoker?" The teacher asked in his monotone voice that always seemed to make her want to drift off into sleep.

"Yes Mr. Benson," she replied with a slight nod and rolled her eye.

He took one last look at her before going back to whatever he was writing on the board. She let out a bored sigh and laid down her head on her hands, her eyes looking at the paper front of her. She was supposed to be taking notes, but all she manages to write was the question and a line drawing of her hitting Nicolas in the head with a bat on his forehead.

Suddenly she heard a loud noise coming from the hallway. It was the sound of footsteps running, she wondered who it  was running so fast. Everyone in the classes also noticed the sound coming from the hallway and paused for a moment.

The door to her classroom suddenly flew open and hit the wall with a clash, a tall boy stood in the doorway breathing heavily. She raised her head and looked with amusement, by the way he was panting it looked as though he has been running for sometime.

But as she took notice of his appearance her breathing ceased and her heart skipped a beat. He was nothing like she had ever seen. He was tall no doubt about that, probably almost the height of Nicolas, his crimson red hair was spiked up at every corner and he had the most beautiful electric blues eyes she had ever seen.

"Whoa whoa young man why are you panting so loud"Mr. Benson asked.
The boy gave him sheepish smile as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Sorry, it's just that I'm new and i got lost in this school its really big i guess rich schools are like this, but damn it hard to find this class. I tried to ask some people but they just walked away as if i was a zombie, rude much. So i had to walk around this campus and try to locate this class, and then finally i got some help from a teacher who was insanely beautiful and told me where this class was... and here i am," he said with a grin after he finished his explanation.

She giggled and smiled at how amusing this guy was, and he looked her way his eyes widened a bit as he looked at her. His reaction was just the same as hers and when their eyes locked she thought she saw her world flip upside down at the way she got lost in his eyes.

"Excuse me! what is your name young man!" The teacher demanded bringing them both back to the real world and out of fantasy land. His eyes never left hers as he answered the teacher.

"Scott Ospreay."
"Well Scott, can i hear your excuse for coming late to class?" He asked his tone was harsh and the look the teacher was giving him could kill.

Scott snapped his eyes to the teacher and shrugged his shoulders, " I just told you i got lost, and that seems like a pretty good excuse for me."

The teachers face was burning crimson red and Annabelle could actually imagine smoke emerging out of his nostrils and ears. "I will let this slip since you are new, but next time you won't be so lucky Mr. Ospreay."

Scott blinked innocently at the teacher, and gave him a small smile. "Oh, i hope it wont happen again. But i can't promise anything," he said.

"Your desk is next to Miss Vaughn Stoker now go and sit down, and write down all the notes," Mr. Benson snapped harshly.
