The Nerd's Love Story

Chapter 1

Ugh another morning where I don't have the energy to get up. Also why is it already 7:50 in the morning, like did all of my alarms go off. Oh wait, yes all of my alarms have gone off and I slept through them all. So you're probably wondering who I am. Well I'm Eliana Evans and I'm 15. And my life is like anyone else's. Can my phone shut up already like you aren't soothing like the title. Wait it's 7:50 in the morning and school starts today. Shit, I only have 10 minutes before the first bell rings. Shit, which means I have to leave like right now. SHIT. Also why does my hair have to be greasy. Okay I'll just put it into french braids while my brother drives me to school. Shit, he would've left already.   

You're probably wondering why he didn't wake me, well lets just say that we only put up with each other because we have to. Sophie. Sophie is still probably sleeping like me. Ok so Sophie has been my best friend since we were in kindergarten, we're like sisters. I pick up my phone and call her. 5 rings in and she answers in a groggy voice, "Hey, what's up". "Hey Soph can you pick me up and drive me to school?" I ask. She sighs, "I guess, but didn't your brother drive you?" She should know that I slept in and he wouldn't have woken my sorry ass. "Do I even have to explain to you?" "No, you slept in and he didn't wake you and left without you. Did I forget anything? Oh wait, you can't drive because you're 15 and I'm 16 and have a car." She said in a I've known you since forever voice. She needs to get here. It's already 7:54. "Hey just come pick me up and I owe you." "You have always owed me." We both laughed and hung up.

After talking to Soph, I threw on a pair of black leggings and a random shirt I found in my closet and threw on white high top converse. Then I ran to my bathroom and brushed my teeth and hair. I sigh when I hear Soph honk her car horn. I run downstairs and grab a breakfast bar and my book bag and walk outside.

Sophie looks amazing as always even if she just woke up. I jump into her car and she starts to drive to school. Time check: it is 8:03 and we are already late for the first day of sophomore year. When we get to the school I start to get out of the car rather quickly but Soph stops me and says, "Are you ready?" Instead of just saying yeah I'm ready I actually thought about this because truthfully I'm not ready. I'm not ready for another year of everyone minus Soph making fun of me for anything and everything. I didn't say anything. I just looked back at her and shook my head in meaning yes. "Eliana if you don't answer me using words I swear to god-" "Yes, I'm ready I don't want to be anymore late then we already are."

After that we both hopped out of the car and walked to the front entrance. We had to go to the front office to get our late slips and schedules. It's like the walk of shame, going to the front office and walking into class late with a late slip.    

Once we got our schedules we checked to see if we had any classes together but unfortunately we only had 1, english. I was upset but also happy that it was english because I suck at it and Soph is like the pro at it. With Soph's help I will ace the class. Sad thing was, we couldn't walk into class late with each other. I had to go to AP Government. Great way to start off every day.

When I walked in I saw the most handsome guy I've ever seen. I must have been staring because my teacher cleared his throat which took me out of this guy's trance. God if I wasn't already blushing I am now.     I quickly gave the teacher my late slip and went to the first open seat I could find. Which of course was right in front of the sexist creature alive. Why couldn't I have picked the seat all the way in the back.

The teacher went on talking about the syllabus when I felt something or someone tap my shoulder and say "Hey what's your name blushes?" It was like I could hear the smirk in his voice. When I turned around I saw the new kid. Like before he looked just as handsome. I must have been staring again because he was waving his hand in my face. "Oh sorry, Eliana, my name is Eliana." Of course you know I was blushing bright red when he said, "What a beautiful name, Eliana." I loved the way my name slipped off his tongue. It should only be fair if I know his name also. "Hey um what's your name?" I asked. "Grayson, Grayson Peters"
