Aria Torres:

I had to admit that seeing Zack for the first time caused me to be a little afraid of her since I had no idea what to expect. My sister already warned me for a boy named Zachary Young because he seemed to be trouble. So when I saw him for the first time I realised that not everything about him can be true. For one he doesn't seem gay just because his hair is pink, and even though he has broad shoulders he doesn't seem like a person who can kill. He reminded me of a bad boy you would see in Korean drama's. Stern facial expression, not caring attitude and that look in his eyes that showed me that he hates everyone and everything. But there must be a good side to him as well. His reputation did not scare me away, because I am known for looking the good in people and he seemed like the perfect challenge. Although this whole tour seemed like I was a burden to him so I was afraid to ask him anything. Also because he ignored me a few times and he seemed not amused when I told him that he was pointing at the parking lot instead of the garden. Then that story Dane told me shocked me at first. I mean in just one punch he dislocated some poor guys jaw, so another good reason not to ask Zack many questions. He seems to be the guy who get irritated easily, I even heard he made teacher cry the other day.

Sadly for him I was assigned a seat next to him in biology class. He had his feet on the table, giving me no space to to my stuff on it. The teacher gave him some looks but from the corner of my eye I saw him giving the teacher a dirty look. I bet the man heard of what happened yesterday. I started to get bored and looked around the classroom realising that this class was small, much smaller then in public schools. Sitting at the table on the right of me was Dane Daniel, he was drawing something in his notebook not paying attention to the teachers rants. He seemed like a nice guy and many girls warned me that he will be theirs, as soon as I bought up Zack they became quiet, only one had the balls to admit that he looks handsome. After giving her weird looks they started ranting a bunch of facts about Dane. Apparently he's Chinese but I would have never guessed it by just his name, some girl told me that his father is half blood so that would explain his last name. Why I remembered that is still vague for me. When I asked about Zack they told me he's Korean but his parents give him a western name since they live in Australia, and that he has a brother walking around this school. Seems that they hate each other and that Zack always explodes when his brother is near him.

I look at Zack who has his eyes closed and his arms supporting his neck, was he really sleeping? I wouldn't be surprised though.

"Hi Aria, I see the teacher gave you the worse seat in class. Next to that guy" Dane whispers.

"Well I guess" I say in an asking voice. "I am not sure if he's sleeping or not but he does take all the space for himself".

Dane chuckles and hides his mouth by putting his arm in front of his mouth. I had no idea what was so funny, all I know is that I wish I could at least move a little without bumping into a moody Zack. I suddenly feel an arm sneak around my waist pulling me up straight so I can't talk to Dane anymore without anyone else hearing it. I look behind me to see Zack looking at me with annoyance.

"Keep the whispering about me to yourself when I'm not around" he says in a mean way.

"Sorry, had no idea you would get mad. Besides I only told Dane the truth. I wasn't sure if you were sleeping and you do take all the space" I whisper.

He let's go of me and bends forward that I feel his cheek touch my ear. "You better shut up now".

I feel eyes burn a hole in my back and realise that the whole class is probably staring at us because Zack was starting to get anger or because of how close he was sitting next to me. I carefully place my hands on his chest and push him back, feeling the muscles from his chest being all tense. This is probably a bad sign.
