The Expected Unexpected

Evie is the netball team captain and rower. Tall at 6'1, with sarcastic remarks at every opportunity _ is sure to attract attention, even if she hasn't realised it yet.

Between lockers come the first impressions and introductions.

**********************************EXTRACT FROM BOOK*****************************************

Pummelling face first into someone I rush out a quick apology and move my feet from around theirs wanting to get to practice before coach benches me. The same shoes stay in my line of vision even when I made sure to step round them.

"Hey sunshine" I hear and I look up to a guy taller than me, I'm guessing 6ft 4, with grey green eyes and light stubble. "First impressions matter, don't they?" he asks and throws a smirk, while in exchange I throw a dirt.

"Move, I need to get to practice" I deadpan, hugging my backpack closer to me and looking at my watch as I make a start. Suddenly there's no space to move and I still as he gets closer than before. My muscles tense and my breathing become sharp. Green eyes leans forward, towering over me.
"So sunshine needs to get to practice instead of showing her new locker mate manners? Or is sunshine not the right name for you? Maybe Juliet is your name, who happens to have finally found her Romeo."

He reaches towards me and I flinch as my body curls away, shoulders shrugging forward as my arms cover my chest and hands cover my face, still rooted on the spot. Slowly someone pries my hands away from my face as I struggle, body shaking, feeling claustrophobic. With his fingers gently circled around my wrists he tugs them away and leaves them resting at my sides. Inspecting my face closely he opens his mouth to say something when he's cut off with a "DONT TOUCH HER!" from a few meters behind me.

I recognise the voice and I close my eyes as I feel him advancing from behind me, my breathing stops and I black out.
