More Than Average

"Faye," he lifts up a piece of popcorn, "You remind me of this piece of popcorn."

Oh god, there's that freakishly loveable grin of his again - the one that haunts my dreams on a frequent basis. The very single one that I have grown to love.

"Pfft, why would you think that?" I ask, genuinely confused.

"Because," he drops the popcorn and smirks at me, "You're already falling for me."

Faye is as ordinary as a girl gets. She has average grades, an average body-shape, average friends, and an average streak of stubbornness. There's nothing that could possibly cause her to stand out in an average school of teenagers, except for the 'more-than-average' talent she has for kissing the floor (aka tripping), hugging the walls (aka bumping into walls) and colliding with inanimate objects (self-explanatory.) And even then, she still doesn't receive the 'good' type of attention.

So when the hot, new kid (who goes by the name of Reece Evans) literally drops a bucket of popcorn on her to get her attention, she's more than a little surprised. I mean, why in the world would someone at the top of the social hierarchy want to get her attention?

Simple, really. Because to Reece, Faye's looks are better than average, her personality is greater than average and her power to keep his attention solely on her?

More than average.
