Cold, that's how Dora could've explained the stares she was getting as she walked down the hallway of her new school.
Her dad had recently got a job as a shopkeeper in the town, so her family had to transfer her to Far-Faraway High.
Dora was a shy girl, she kept her head low and tried to ignore the stares.
She was currently looking for her first class, which is math, she had got her schedule at the office 5 minutes ago and she had trouble finding it.
She was looking around when she had locked eyes with the most beautiful boy she had ever seen.
Dora and this mysterious boy maintained eye contact as she walked by him and his friends.
Distracted, Dora bumped into someone.
"o-oh i'm sorry" Dora apologized."it's okay boo" said the boy. "I haven't seen you before, are you new?" the boy stated.
"yeah i just transferred today." Dora confirmed.
"you're cute, what's your name?"
"Dora, and yours?" Dora said.
"Pedro." They shook hands with each other.
Dora remembered she couldn't find her classroom so she decided to ask Pedro.
"um, do you know where class '2-b' is?" Dora asked trying not to stutter.
"yeah, I guess we are in the same class, want me to take you there?" Pedro asked.
"yeah sure that would be nice. Pedro said bye to his friends then walked with Dora.
"You seemed pretty distracted earlier, was it perhaps because of Shrek?"
'Who tf is Shrek?' Dora thought to herself.
"Who is that?" Dora asked.
"Oh Shrek?, he is a football player, pretty popular i guess, he is also a bully and enjoys playing with girls" Pedro explained.
"what do you mean by play-" Just as she was about to ask the bell rang which meant it was time for class.
"oh would you look at that we are here just in time" Pedro hurried.
'I'll just ask what he meant by 'playing with girls' next time' Dora shrugged.
The classroom was mostly full when Dora got there, she took a seat at the back, whilst Pedro sat at the front of the class.
'this bitch really just ditched me just now' Dora often had trouble keeping her thoughts in her head at times.
Soon enough everyone sat down in their seats but no one sat beside Dora 'strange' Dora thought.
in class
The teacher arrived and looked at Dora and smiled.
"Class we have a new student, Hi, i'm Mr.Grouper, please introduce yourself miss." The teacher spoke really calmly.
Mr.Grouper had really long legs, and he was really young, only 24 years old.
Dora definitely took a liking to Mr.Grouper and she knew math would be her favorite class from now on.
Dora shyly stood up from her seat. "i'm dora i'm 17 years old and i hope we can get along" Dora said faster than you can run.
Doras face heated up with embarrassment and she sat back in her seat, put her head down and internally cried at how unnecessarily fast that was.
"okay so now that we introduced our new student let's get started-" Mr.Grouper was cut off the the sound of the door being swung open, there stood the boy she had made eye contact with earlier that morning.
He was tall and he looked very handsome.
"ah Shrek, late for the millionth time" Mr.Grouper said as he rolled his eyes.
the whole class started to whisper, one whisper caught Dora's ear "he was probably smoking or making out with Fiona in the janitors closet" One of the girls rolled her eyes.
'who tf is Fiona' Dora thought bitterly.
"whatever, it's not like you can do anything about it" Shrek spat.
'woww he has such a handsome face but his personality is shit' Dora thought to herself. After Shrek's remark at Mr.Grouper he made his way towards the back of the class, towards the empty seat beside Dora.
Dora could feel her heart pound for a unknown reason.
'why tf is my heart beating lmao i took my epipen this morning' Dora complained in her thoughts.
Shrek sat down beside her and they made eye contact for the 2nd time that morning, this time he smirked at her and turned back to look at the chalkboard.
Shrek would briefly touch his hand with Dora's, and get a little to close to her.
Dora didn't mind though, in fact she actually enjoyed it. Time went by and it was break, Dora packed all of her supplies and began to head out the door, she took her time packing and was the last one in the class.
Just as she walked out the door she was immediately pushed back in by someone.
"where do you think you're going, whore?"
