I walk nervously to the classroom. I should've been in this class originally, but my mates had other ideas, they snuck me in to there classes and I got away with it till they assessed my tests and forced me to go up to the top. My hands in my pockets, I make my way past my friends classrooms. I try and hide my face. Ugh, this is so embarrassing. I finally get to the end of the hall to a blue door with Advanced English carved into a shiny silver plaque. I put my fist to the door and knock, kicking myself at the same time. Why couldn't I be stupid like my friends? A tall guy comes to the door saying the usual mock cool teacher stuff and I just reply like any diligent student would. He gestures for me to find a seat. I run my fingers through my hair as I look for somewhere to sit and then there she is. Her hazel eyes locking with mine for just a second. I can see she's quite shy as she quickly looks down at her book breaking our eye contact. She's gorgeous. I notice that I've been staring at her so I walk over to her and ask to sit in the empty seat beside her. She nods and I sit. I notice that she's a having a good look at me and I put all my effort into not blushing. She's nothing like the girls I've gotta hangout with, caked in makeup, won't shut up and look as skimpy as hell, she's just naturally beautiful, no make up needed. Her hair flows around her face blocking a little of her vision on my side so I can stare without her noticing. She's wearing worn in jeans with high tops and a ACDC top, yet she looks like she's off to a photo shoot for a magazine. She's quiet which I've always loved. I may be a jock, but I don't really enjoy the partying, I love the drinking but not the way my mates drink. I'm still a virgin, but I will never tell my friends because they'd bully me for waiting for the right girl. Really I think the girls that I know should wear some more close and hold back on the makeup. It may be attractive to the guys I know but not to me. It's as if she doesn't realize that a guy like me would kill to even talk to a girl like her. After class I approach her. "Hey" I say and scold my self internally for how shaky my voice is. She looks shyly at me but then replies in a soft voice, "Hello". After this we hit up a conversation and I find out that we have a lot in common. She adores music and Tv shows and movies (even stuff like Avengers and horror stuff). She lets me know that she is an utter book fanatic and I love that because, despite being a popular sporty guy, I'm still a genuine nerd at heart and I'm glad to hear she is too. I give her my number and we go off into the area.

I keep this up for a while, talking and hanging around her as much as possible. I try and make her laugh the whole time i'm with her because when she laughs its so sexy. It was love at first sight for me but I can't even gain the confidence to ask her who she likes, let alone if she wants to be my girlfriend.

"Hey Josh, there's a wicked party coming up, but the catch is you gotta bring a date." says my best mate Ryan hastily. "Dude you know I'm single, and non of these girls are my type." I say as I gesture to all the floozies in a group behind Ryan. "Well then bring a so called 'natural girl' then, if you can find one" he laughs. "I will". I walk off in the direction of Ela's group, as I try and talk myself into asking her to go with me.
