Cecil POV
"Cecil? Cec, are you okay?" I squint my eyes to get a glimpse of Earl who is standing beside me.
"Where am I?" I try to sit up, but I'm hit with a wave of dizziness and have to lay back down.
"You're in the nurses office, Cec. You got your ass kicked. Like, really bad."
"Well no shit Sherlock," I try sitting up once more, this time slower. "Earl, how did I get here?"
"I'm not really sure. I just got called into the nurses office to come check on you. She told me someone brought you in, but no one that she recognized." Earl said, helping me off the bed.
"Our school is tiny, how could she not know who it is?" I say, confusion lining my voice.
"Must be that new kid."
"What new kid?" I honestly have no idea what the hell is going on right now. When did we get a new kid?
"I'm not sure what his name is, but he's in my chemistry class. He seems normal enough. He's pretty cute too!" Earl's voice gets higher as he finishes.
"Oh my god, you are so weird!" I say laughing at earl.
I get off the bed to look in the mirror by the sink. I have a black eye and my lip is busted. "Great. This is just freaking great," I lightly press the skin around my eye and it hurts to the touch.
"What time is it?" I ask Earl.
"Twelve o'clock!" He answers.
"Wanna go to Arby's?" it's one of the only restaurants in our town, besides Sammy's Ultimate Sliceria, which has the best pizza EVER!
"Sure, I've got nothing better to do," Earl says with a smirk on his face. He is such a smart ass.
***
We arrive at the Arby's in under 10 minutes, it's a new record. Yes, we do keep track of that.
Earl and I order our food and head to the table. We pick the corner booth. Our usual.
Since it's twelve all of the other seniors get out of school early too, so there's quite a few people here. I recognize all of them except for one.
"Hey, hey Earl, is that the new kid?" I stared wide-eyed at the boy. He's absolutely gorgeous and I'm only looking at his back half. I wonder if the front is as good?
"Yeah! That's him! HEY YOU! NEW KID!!!" Earl shouts at the top of his lungs.
"Earl what the hell?! Shut up!" I whisper-yell.
He continues anyways,"HEY NEW KID, COME OVER HERE!"
This caught the new kid's attention and once again I am struck by beauty. His hair is a creamy brown colour and about shoulder length. His eyes seem to be a dark color but I can't tell very well because of our distance.
He points at himself with a confused expression, as if he weren't sure we were yelling at him.
"Me?" He mouths.
"Yes, you. Geez are you deaf?" Earl says sarcastically.
The new kid walks up closer to us and I get a better look.
His eyes are dark as I had suspected, but now they had glittering, gold flecks that were visible only in the light. He had a tiny patch of hair missing from his left eyebrow, presumably from stitches. His teeth were perfect like a military cemetery. And they were smiling right at me.
"Hi, I'm Carlos."
