" can we loose these retarded name tags now? i honestly dont think they will help her to learn our names. " some girl from the front of the classroom asked.
i'm assuming the teacher gave in because everyone, includng this jonah kid crumpled up their name tags.
i was lost staring at jonah.
" kaity.. " the teacher said.
" uh, yes? " i asked snapping back into reality.
" care to intoduce yourself.. where your from, why.. etc. " she urged.
" uh, hi im kaity. and um i moved here from california and - "
" why would you do that? " somebody blurted.
" um well both my parents are attorneys and they were asked to come her and work in minneapolis. " i sad begining to become a little more confident.
" thank you kaity, you can sit down now. "
i sat.
" your not really from californa, right? " the gorgeous kid with you beautiful smile asked.
my words caught in my throat. " oh, um yes. "
" damn. " was all he said.
the rest of the day was sort of a drag...
... until lunch.
jonah came walking up to me with his arm around some girl
of course
" hey your brother drives a red convertible, you live in a really big house & you moved in last weekend right? "
how'd he know that? " um yes? " i said a little uneasy.
" well then you moved in to the house next to me .." he said.
my heart jumped a little.
" anyways, can you guys give me a ride home? my parents arent home and if not i have to walk. "
i just nodded.
honestly, i dont know how i should feel about this?..
i pulled out my phone
NEW TEXT:

message sent.
" eye-balling mr. jonah marais i see. ' a tall girl with blond hair walked up to me and said.
i laughed a little " no, not reall "eye-balling" anyone consdering theres a month till school ends and its my first day."
she just nodded and rolled her eyes " grace. " she stuck her hand out in my direction.
" kaity, in case you didnt already know. feels like everyones watching me." i said hugging myself.
" well.. they are? not very often we get fresh cali blood here in minnesota. anyways just look at you, you hot. " grace laughed.
" umm.. thanks?" i forced a laugh.
" youre dying to know more about jonah arent you."
shes right. i am.
" well if i said no i'd be lying. "
" very appropriate answer there kaity, an answer every girl would say. anyways, jonah.. he used to be just that basic hot guy everyone knew but hes famous - well definantly on the way to fame. hes a singer." grace said.
i didnt know how to even react to that.
" i-"
my cellphone buzzed.
1 unread message from kalob.
" can't gotta run take another friend home. mom said you could walk. hope your having a good day. love you. "
" ugh great."
" why the sudden loss of enthusium?" grace teased.
" well now my brother can't even drive me home, i have to walk. " i muttered.
" thats great news. "
i stood confused.
" please tell me all california girls arent like this... if your brother can give you a ride home that means you have to walk.. "
" your point?.." i was still beyond confusion.
" then you walk home with jonah!" grace blurted louder than she needed too.
then she walked away flashing a smile in my direction.
all i knew is that i needed to find jonah.
where would you find a singer at lunch?
a music room.. and that was exactly where i found him.
i opened the door trying not to scare him.
and i definantly knew why he was on the rise to fame. he had an amazing voice not to mention he was beautiful.
i was lost with the sound of his voice in my head when he called my name.
" kaity?" jonah said a little embarrased.
" oh im so sorry, i didnt mean to invade. i can come talk later" i blurted out.
" oh no, dont worry about it. " he said in a mild tone. " what'd you need?"
" oh i texted a friend and we cant give you a ride home.. well kalob can't give us a ride home. he has to bring one of his new friends home.. probably one of his girlfriends. " i laughed.
" oh i was actually going to ask you after lunch, i was gonna get a ride home from one of my friends and i was gonna see if you wanted a ride. but now since you dont even have a ride that's probably a yes? " jonah said cautiously.
should i ?
" that'd be great." i said before i realized.
" great, ill meet you at you locker after school? "
i just nodded and waved.
what am i getting myself into?
