Maya Arnett is known as the "geek" around her school that mainly spends most of her time alone. Everyone uses her to their advantage, either to copy her paper on a test to get a good grade or pestering her in a group project, until she does all the work. People usually bully her for her high intelligence, which leads to her not having many friends. Oh, and let's not forget that she's the captain of her academic team. Lee Evans is the "emo" at the school. He has no friends, is talked about constantly, fails most of his classes, and hates most of society. He often scares people, but not Maya. She's often intrigued by him. One day when Maya is assigned as Lee's tutor, a seed to a developing friendship, or maybe even a relationship, is planted. Who knew that two completely different people could teach each other so many lessons...
"What's your problem?" He asks darkly.
"What's your problem?" I spit back.
"Why do you keep following me?" He hisses.
"I don't follow you!" I shout back.
"Then how come where ever I go you end up going or being there?" He questions in a raised voice.
"Its a coincidence." I say back in the same tone. He then moves forward towards me, and I take a step back but my back hits the brick wall. He puts his arms up his palms against the wall caging me in looking into my eyes. I won't look at him though, I look to the ground scared.
"Just leave me alone...stay away." He whispers in my ear before he walks away to his car with his head down.
