Another day of high school I walked along the hallway and entered the room thats written room 115 on the door. First period of the day, Physics with Mr. Kit. Honestly, can we just skip all this? I mean, its the first day of the week and this is what I get for my first period of the day?! I sighed as I walked inside the classroom. Dammit! If this is going to be my Physics class for the rest of the year, I might just quit school already! What on Earth have I done to receive this punishment to be in the same class as those brats?! Chloe Ludendorff, Amy Boston, Sidney Peterson, and Mackenzie Wright. Yeap, the cheerleader brats who most boys here adore and admire. Not my best friend, Aydan Smith of course! He would never fall in love with girls like them. I wont mind them at all. Imma just sit at that chair at the back of this classroom, and Ill probably sleep for the rest of the lesson. I was about to fall asleep when suddenly the bell rang from the speaker in my class. Instead of Mr. Kit entering the class right after the bell rang, suddenly a random guy entered our class. Wait, what?? Who is this dude?

Good morning, class said Mr. Kit. Today, we have a new student, as you can see. Please go ahead and introduced yourself to your classmates.

Hello, my name is Alex McQuan. I moved down here to Dallas from Los Angeles a couple days ago. And most of my friends call me Alex or Quan. I lived in L.A. before. I am seventeen years old this year. Well, thats all. Thank you.

Then the loudest clap came from the cheerleaders while they were also screaming. Seriously, what do they see in him?! Hes not even THAT cute. Alright, fine. Imma have to admit it. He is kinda cute, though. KINDA. Wait, why am I even thinking about this weirdo?! I dont even know who he is! Well, of course I know his name. His full name, even! It was Alex, right? Alex McQuan, right?? Pfft, Alex McQuan. Like hell thats a good name. Ugh, these girls just wont stop screaming, oh my gosh! I covered my ears and for a few seconds, I couldnt hear a damn thing. I kept thinking and thinking. While he was introducing himself, I kept getting the feeling that he was watching me the whole time. I opened my eyes and saw a someone in front of my desk. I looked up and my eyes met the most beautiful eyes Ive ever seen in my life. What does this weirdo want? Before he could even open his mouth and spoke, Mr. Kit immediately started his class. For the first time, this is when I say thank you to that guy. Even though its hard, but I did it anyways. Time to sleep, finally! After waiting for so long, I closed both of my eyes and fell asleep.

The bell finally rang and woke me up. Time for my next class! Finally, it has ended! The two hour-period of Mr. Kits useless lesson. I went to my locker on the second floor. The locker area, thats what they call it. And mines on the number two area. Number 212, thats what written on the door of that locker. I opened it and looked at schedule. Yay! The next lesson is Biology with Ms. Wright. Literally the nicest teacher ever in this school. I closed the locker door slowly since I was still sleepy. I walked straight. I saw something green colored met my forehead, eyes, and nose. Dammit. Argh.

You?! I asked frantically.

Me...?" he asked back.

Youre that guy from Mr. Kits Physics class before, right?! he nodded.

Sorry about that, by the way he greased his hand on my face.

Wait, what?! Argh! Help, please! My heart was pounding and jumping from its usual rate and speed. Please dont tell me Im also blushing, too! This is so embarrassing!! I walked past him and our locker doors. Cant believe that guys my locker neighbor!! First, those cheerleader brats are my classmates. Second, this show-off guys my locker neighbor! Can this day just get any worse?!

Watch out! shouted someone.

Then I felt a pair of arms wrapping around me. I looked up and saw that guy before—Alex, got hit by a flying ball on his face. Oh, Jesus! I pulled away from him and my focus was on his bleeding nose and on the bruise on the side of his mouth.
