I walked into lunch in a pissed-off mood because of what happened in first hour. Mr. P had to call my parents over literally nothing.

I saw Ethan at his table with the boys and smiled. I walked over to them and sat with them. It was basically the entire football team and I.

I sat by Ethan and sighed. "You still mad about Mr. Palmer?" He asked me. I nodded my head and rolled my eyes.

"Wait, have you guys seen the new girl?" Aaron asked, changing the subject. I raised my eyebrows. "She's gorgeous."

"How gorgeous are we talking? Addison Rae?" Ethan asked, jokingly. The boys laughed and I scoffed. I knew he was only kidding.

"Nah, we're talking Madison Beer!" He exclaimed. Damn. Keaton shook his head and smiled.

"There's no way."

"There she is now." Aaron whispered. I turned around and saw a drop-dead gorgeous girl enter the cafeteria. She had brown hair and light brown eyes. I was so jealous. She was stunning! "Her name is Eleanor, but she goes by Elle."

Even her name was perfect. I caught Ethan staring and gently grabbed his hand. He looked at me and sighed. "You're the only girl I could ever want." He whispered.

I smiled and nodded. I needed to hear that. She noticed all the boys staring, including me and walked over to our table. "Do you need something?" She asked.

All the guys were practically drooling, except Ethan. I felt him wrap his arm around me. I noticed she'd been staring at him, but there was no return. I was cheering in my head.

"We just wanted to say welcome to the school," Cameron added. I chuckled. "I'm Cameron, by the way."

"You don't care about him, you care about me.. hey, I'm Aaron." He said. It was funny how they'd been throwing themselves at her.

"I like that one," it fell silent and I realized she was pointing at Keaton. No. Keaton's eyes widened and he chuckled.

"Me?" He asked. She smiled and nodded her head. Aaron frowned in disappointment. "Well.. hi, I'm Keaton."

"I'm Elle." She walked towards him and sat down next to him. I seen her continuously stare at Ethan. I did not like it. But maybe I was being over-dramatic and jealous.

"Where did you come from?"

"Colorado-probably explains my pale skin, huh?" The boys all laughed and I just rolled my eyes. Keaton really wanted her?

"I think you're beautiful," Keaton responded. I watched her incredibly smooth cheeks turn pink as she blushed. "Anyway, that's my sister Paisley." He introduced me.

She glanced at me as I waved at her before she chuckled. "Yeah, I seen her when I walked in! You are absolutely stunning." She told me.

I still didn't like her. I furrowed my eyebrows, studying her. "Thank you." I replied. She smiled and nodded, turning back to Keaton.

Something was off about her.

I walked in my house and Ethan followed behind me. I looked at the couch and seen Eleanor and Keaton making out. Ethan laughed. "Damn, Kea." Ethan whistled.

Eleanor quickly climbed off Keaton as he licked his lips. "You guys are gross." I said. Keaton raised an eyebrow.

"Pais, damn, be a little nicer." Ethan told me.

"No! It's totally okay! I'm sure it was quite disturbing to see your brother with the new girl!" She exclaimed. God, why was she so nice? Bitch.

"Paisley is fine, she's just a little rude and extra sometimes," Keaton replied. I rolled my eyes. "I'll be right back."
