Edens POV:

"oh, um hi can i help you?" i asked the lost looking boy standing in front of me. the school bell rang but i didn't even notice. all my attention was on the mysterious boy.
"um, yeah, i'm new and this is my first day, i was wondering if you could show me where this room is" he held out a timetable and pointed to his first period class.
i pull out my timetable and hold it next to his.
"oh we have quite a lot of classes together. i'll show you." i said, comparing our classes.
he thanked me and we set off towards our class.
"i didn't catch you name" i said, turning to face him.
"i'm peter." he said "peter davis" he said.
"i'm eden bailey."
(a/n gosh i couldn't think of any last names i'm sorry they are trash)
he shook my hand and i could feel my face turn pink. we reached our first class. english.
and of course, lucky for me, ruel is in this class. yay. not.

peter started talking to the teacher and i made my way to the back of the class, sitting in the last row, behind a girl that was in a few of my classes last year. we made small talk for a few minutes until i looked up to see peter standing in front of me.
"is this seat taken?" he asks me, pointing to the desk on the other side of me. i smiled.
"nope, you can sit there"
he was about to sit down when someone dumped their bag on the table. it was ruel.
"sorry new kid, that's my girlfriends seat" he said.
"wow really? i don't see her name on it" i said, pretending to check for maddies name on the chair.
"she's not here yet dickhead" he said through gritted teeth.
"well then sucks to be her" i said, shoving ruels bag off the table and motioning for peter to sit down, who was awkwardly watching our little fight from a few feet away. ruel angrily stood towered over me (cause he's a giraffe lol) his hands curled into fists, when the teacher interrupted us. lucky timing.
"excuse me Mr. van dijk and Miss bailey. i would like to start our class now if you would please sit down."
peter sat in 'maddies' chair and awkwardly looked back and forth between ruel and i, who, from either side of him, were sending each other death stares.

at the end of the lesson, peter and i walked to the cafeteria and saw ellie running towards us.
"i want you to meet my best friend" i said to peter, who nodded.
"this is my best friend, ellie harlow" i said, pointing to ellie who had just run up to us, panting.
"ellie, this is the new student, peter davis"
"hi peter" ellie smiles and shook his hand.
they are definitely gonna get on well.

we decided to sit on the oval, because it was too crowded in the cafeteria.
we walked over to a shady tree, and sat down. i looked over to see ruel playing basketball with his friends across the oval on the basketball courts. i rolled my eyes and looked away.
"what's the beef with you and that tall guy?" said peter  
"we just got bad history, thats all"
he looked at me suspiciously before shrugging and turning back to eating his lunch.
i studied his features. soft brown hair. bright, hazel eyes. a cute, button nose. pink, flushed cheeks. about 6"2.
maybe this year won't be so bad.
