today was one of the few days i actually decided to go to school kind of cute. it's the middle of october, so its been a little chilly outside. i wore a long sleeve shirt, a scarf, leggings, and my favorite pair of boots. a little basic, yeah i know, but whatever.
i walked into first period with one of my bestfriends, zach. we've been bestfriends since i moved to south carolina in the 5th grade.
we had the same second period, pre-cal, together, too. it's a senior class, but we're a year ahead in math.
about 35 minutes into the class, a guidance counselor came to the door. no one really payed attention when they came to the door because it usually had nothing to do with any of us.
but that wasn't the case this time.
there was a guy with her. he looked about my age, maybe even a senior. my teacher closed the door and told the class that he was a new student from australia. his name was calum. all i could think was wtf is an australian doing in south carolina.
when the bell rang at the end of class, zach called after me.
"syerra, were you even paying attention to the lesson?" zach asked with a little chuckle.
"do i ever?" i responded with but of a sarcastic tone.
"but ever since the new kid came in, you couldn't stop staring. are you okay?"
shit. "no i wasn't," i said a little embarrassed.
"yeah you were. and it looked pretty intense, to me"
"you don't think he noticed, do you?" i really hoped he didn't.
"i think he may have. he looked over a few times and would turn back smiling," zach said with an assuring smile on his face.
while we were talking, i didn't even realize i had walked by my next class. i had to part from zach without saying bye, but i barely made it to my next class on before the bell.

okay this isn't much at all, just a little more backround plus the introduction of calum. okay sorry, i'll do chapter two now.
