BRING!! The bell rang as I picked up my stuff and started to head to history.  In history the only seat in the class was the one right next to me. I walk in to see Clarke sitting it the seat next to mine. I was happy for a second the mortified as I realized my history teacher,mr.fig, had to call roll. He starts calling roll and I get more and more anxious as it goes on. "Hannah?". A name I had never heard before. I looked around the room to see if I saw any other new students but I only saw Clarke. "I go by Clarke" he says with a little shake in his voice. I look at him and he starts to mouth ," I'm sorry" but I stop him and point to mr.fig, "madeline?"
  "Present" I say. Clarke looks at me smiles and gives me a thumbs up.
Near the end of class I ask to see his schedule, "oh sweet we have next block together!" I say as I look at his schedule.
"Oh and three out of four classes tomorrow!" He says excitedly.
At the end of the day we walked to the bus together. "So do you wanna go bike after school with me?" He asked me. "Yeah sure!"
  We meet up at the park on the corner of our streets. "Hey do you wanna come meet my parents?" He asked me. I did not know what to say so I said yes. "Cool! Let's go." We biked 50 seconds to his house. " hey mom I brought my new friend!"  We walked into the kitchen. "Hi! I'm Clarke's mom." 
"Hi Clarke's mom, I'm Maddie."
  " come on man you can tell her your real name she is cool."
"Really?" I whispered to him. he nodded.
  "Okay, I'm grey." It felt so right to tell people my name.
"Hi grey!" His mom said in a cheery southern accent. I realized Clarke had one too, I had never noticed it.
