Chris:
It was the first day of high school, and you were trying to find your classroom for AP History. You seemed to be going in the right direction when you made eye contact with a blue-eyed boy across the hallway. You recognized him immediately as Chris Chambers. The two of you had gone to grade school together, but never really spoken. That was until he made his way over to you with a kind smile.

"Hey," he said before asking, "Your name's y/n, right?"

You smiled back at him, "Yeah...Chris?"

Chris's face brightened, "Yeah, that's me. I wanted to ask you: Do you have Mrs. Davis for AP History? I'm suppose to be heading to her room, but I'm kind of lost."

"I'm actually on my way to her class now," You told him, "We can walk together if you want."

"That be great, thank you so much," Chris said, sounding relieved.

You smiled at him, "No problem."

As the two of you walked into the classroom together, more than a few kids stared at you both. You came from a well-off family and had never been in trouble a day in your life. Of course, everyone knew about the Chambers family. The rumors of the "low life" Chambers kids didn't bother you, however as you felt from your short interaction that Chris was a good guy. And the fact that he was cute didn't hurt either.

Chris and you sat in desks next to each other started talking before Mrs. Davis walked in, and discovered that the two of you have lunch, Honors ELA, and Public Speaking together.

After the class was over, you and Chris stood up; it was your lunch period.

"Hey y/n," Chris said.

You smiled at him, "Yeah, Chris?"

He stretched the back of his head, looking a little nervous, "I have some friends in lunch with us, and umm...if you're looking for someone to sit with, you're can sit with us."

"That'd be great actually," you told him.

Chris looked up from the floor where he was looking at the floor, "Really?"

"Totally," you said.

You and Chris walked down to the cafeteria together. You were secretly giddy at the idea of you and Chris having lunch together. Even if it was with three of his friends as well.

Gordie:
You were under a tree in an empty field in Castle Rock, reading a new book you got from the library. It was the first warm, sunny day in the spring, so you decided to take advantage of the nice weather and read outside.

You were so lost in the story that you didn't even hear another person walking up to you until a voice pulled you out of the story, "What'cha reading?"

Your head snapped up to see a brown haired boy standing in front of where you were sitting.

The boy blushed, looking embarrassed, "Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."

You shake your head and smiled at him, "No, it's fine. I was just lost in the story."

He chuckled a little at that, "Yeah, I get that. It happens to me all the time."

"Anyway, I'm reading Gone With the Wind," you finally told him.

"Oh, I've never read that one," he said, "I've heard it's really good though."

"Oh, it's amazing!" You exclaimed, "The characters are so complex, and the dialogue is just incredible. It's also such an action-packed book, but it's also so emotionally impactful."
