(A/N Only about two more chapters before it starts to really get good! And what do you think about Louis hitting on Kinna? I think I feel a crush coming along.)

First and second period was terribly boring. Third period wasn't too bad because I have lunch that period so I got to see Liam and Niall. Fourth wasn't too bad either but now I'm on my way to the gym for my fifth and final class. I never thought I would be so excite to do physical education but since it's the last class of the day I automatically love it.

As we walk in our teacher Mr. James tells us to talk a seat on the bleachers and wait for further instructions. I take a seat on the first seat in the first row because for some reason the middle of the bleachers attract a lot of attention students.

Mr. James is still by the door were he is supposed to be waiting for the rest of the students to come in but it looks like he is more interested in flirting with one of the first floor teachers. I watch them talk until Mr. James starts to scratch at his belly. Immediately I bring my eyes back down to my lap. I silently start to scold myself. If I hadn't been nosy I would have never had to see that.

As I'm lost in my thoughts I hear someone plop down in the seat directly to my left. When I look up to see who it is I'm met with a smiling Louis, his eyes outs shinning his smile. I once again I have to look to my lap in order to hide the blush sneaking its way up my cheeks. Why does the few boys around me have to be so dang attractive. I could honestly be happy with average looking boys but I don't think I can take anymore boys with blues eye and painfully great smiles. My awkwardness would just cause me to blow up or have a nervous breakdown.

I feel Louis lean against my shoulder before leaning down and saying, "Don't you think it's just gross when teachers flirt." I glance up to catch Louis rolling his eye. I can't think of an intelligent response knowing Louis is sitting there waiting for a response from me but I can't stop the childish giggle from escaping me lips. Dear god, I wish the bleachers would swallow me up and save me from this embarrassment.

"Anyway, so I guess it looks like we have this together," Louis says and it almost a like he is smirking with his words. Maybe I'm just wishing; why would Louis be smirking at me? Heck, I don't understand why he's here beside me.

Gathering up all the courage that I possibly can I look up at Louis, I try smiling slightly and I shake my head. I quickly put my head down though, thinking of how stupid that probably looked, my cheeks once again begin to heat up. I wish I could get grip on myself. Now I'm just waiting for him to realize how pointless this is for both of us and leave. I wish I could be like regular girls for once and be able to flirt. Why is it so hard for me?

Right when I expect Louis to finally leave I feel his hand gently rest on my left shoulder. Instantly I begin to stiffen up. If I didn't think I could become more uncomfortable than I already was but I was soon proven wrong. I feel Louis lean his head in right next to my ear before whispering, "Kinna do you realize how cute you are when blush like that?"

I wasn't sure how to respond or if he even wanted me too but before I could really think about it I felt him move his hand off my shoulder and under my chin. He turned my head, forcing my to look into his eyes, "And you can look at me, I promise I won't think anything about it."

I didn't know what to do. I was frozen and all because a gorgeous boys is look me in the eyes.

"Louis, stop trying to corrupt children and come up here. We need to talk about Friday." When I look up I see Michael Clifford with his arms crossed at Louis. Micheal is one of Louis friends that I try to avoid. His hair is dyed a dark red which surprisingly suits him and he has gorgeous light blue eyes. The problem with Michael is he looks good and he knows it. His hobbies include partying and breaking hearts. To say I can't stand him would be a slight under statement.

When I look over back at Louis he is smirking with his middle finger high in the air before he looks at Michael and says, "We can talk later I'm-" but he is cut off by Mr. James.

"Boys sit down," As soon as Mr. James can be heard Louis sits down, with a smile, and wraps his muscular arm around my shoulders. For the next ten minutes Mr. James explains what he expects from us which honestly doesn't sound like much.

"Okay, for the last few minutes of class you can walk laps around the gym or you can shoot basketball," then out of no where he cuts his eyes at Louis and me. "So you two are going to be that couple. That's okay but know I've got my eyes on you. Now everybody up and doing something."

My cheeks instantly heat up. I can't believe he called us out like that and I can't believe he actually thought we were a couple. I feel my skin start to crawl at thought of everyone staring at me but Louis just sets there smirking with his arm still confidently around my shoulder. I had to find some kind of escape so I quickly got up form my spot on the bleachers and began my laps around the gym hoping to lose Louis. But Louis is following directly behind me like a lost puppy.

"Hey, slow down Kinna. If you're in front of me we can't be that couple," Louis says with laugh. I can't believe he finds this so funny.

"Sorry," I mumble looking at the ground refusing to make eye contact. My anger is starting to give me the confidence to speak.

"Aha! She speaks, I knew I would get words out of you eventually." When I look Louis is practically skipping around me. Even though I'm mad, I know Louis is only trying to be nice to me and that's a lot more than I can say about most people, so I smile back at him.

"So Kinna, what's going on between you and Liam? Do you like him?" Louis question takes me off guard. It was so blunt and it come out of now where and before I had time to even think about it the answer came spilling out of my mouth.

"Liam is like a brother to me because we've known each other so long. I don't think I could ever like Liam in a romantic way." I never stuttered or paused once. It could almost pass as a regular conversation like I would have with Liam or Niall. Without hesitation Louis is coming back at me with another question.

"Well what about in a sexual way? Like, would you ever fuck Liam?" I can feel my cheeks begin to grow red and hot. I'm used to Liam and Niall cursing but we never talk about sexual stuff. Stuff like that is personal and we know that we shouldn't share that kind of stuff.

"Umm, well, I, umm he's like a brother. I would like my brother, umm, that way." I say, my eyes never leave the floor. I'm so embarrassed I hope he just leaves and never talks to me again. Can he not tell I'm a hopeless case. For minute I thought my prayers had been answered because I didn't hear him for what felt like forever but that quickly changed

"Kinna, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to embarrass you. I'm not used to talking to people as innocent as you. You're a real game changer you know that?" Louis says to me smiling and I feel myself smile too. I'm not too certain but his smile is telling me that my innocence is a good thing. Maybe Louis isn't all bad.

"Kinna, I'm going to get you out of being so shy though. You are way too beautiful to be as insecure as you are. This Friday Michael and I are having a party, you and Liam should come." I automatically start trying to think of an excuse as to why I shouldn't come but then I remember the promise I made to myself just this morning. It would be selfish of me to turn this down. Liam hasn't went to many parties because he knew I didn't want to go. We should because its our senior year and I don't want him to miss out on his last year.

"Okay, but first I'll have to talk to Liam about it," as soon as I say it Louis face lights up.

The rest of the period Louis tell me about the party and what he had planned. I just smile and nod. All in all it was a pretty good first day back. Liam had practice and Niall was shopping with his mom so the rest of the I watched friends and made a pizza. Maybe this year will be a little more exciting than the last three
