I walked up to my locker and put in the code. I sighed reluctantly as I pulled out a book, not wanting to go to my next class. I don't want to see Veronica’s pretty stuck up face. When I closed the locker with my books in hand, a see a disgruntled Dj running up to me. She finally made it to me and grabbed my arms to brace herself. She looked down panting, before flinging her head up to look me in the eyes and whisper-yells, “HAVE YOU MET THE NEW KID??” I looked at her for a moment before responding, leaving her enough time to calm down. “Uh- no, I have not met the ‘New Kid’ Should I have?” She looked at me astonished for a moment. “REALLY?? Everyone is fangirling over him right now! And he’s suuuuper HOT!” I giggled for a moment, “I don’t need a new face to obsess over".She laughed a little before saying, “Well, rumors going around that he’s going to be in our next class! I can’t wait to talk to him again!!!” I rolled my eyes, “As I said, I don’t need a crush right now. Too many things are going on in my life, at the moment.” Dj frowned at what I said, so I added in a little something to cheer her up. I sighed. “Maybe later I will “fangirl”. Just not at the moment.” Dj let out a small squeal and started pulling us to our next class. We finally got to class, and the new kid and I locked eyes. I felt like we stood looking into each other’s eyes for hours. All of a sudden I hear the teacher yell at me to sit down in my seat. I was so embarrassed. At the end of class multiple of my peers came to ask if I was interested in Noah... I denied, but he was all I could think about. I thought about it for a minute and then I realized he was the new kid everyone was getting hot and bothered over. At that moment Veronica came up to me and told me to stay away from Noah. I said okay, but I knew that was a lie. I went up to him and said hi, as well as asked how he was liking this school so far. “So far, so good.” He answered. “How ‘bout you? Do you like the school?” I was surprised about how easily he struck up a conversation with me. “I like it here,” I answered. Soon the bell rang and I realized we had talked all passing period. It only felt like two minutes. Noah and I rushed to class and I found out we have 4th period together. We both reached out for the handle at the same time. I blushed and pulled my hand away, he soon followed suit. “You go first,” I said. He smirked as he gestured his hand in front of him. “Ladies first.” He responded. I smiled and blushed, hoping he didn’t notice.He opened the door for me. I thanked him and we both headed inside. I noticed Veronica sitting in the front row in the classroom. She looked at me, fuming. I sat down in the second row and Noah sat behind me. He tapped my shoulder and handed me a note. It said, “ After school, do you want to get ice cream with me?” I was shocked and I didn’t know what to say. I wrote back on the paper, “ Yeah sure, where at?”. I handed him back the paper. He read it and a smile crept across his face. He scribbled something down and gave me back the note. I read it and smiled. The bell rang and I turned around to talk to him. “So tonight, 7 PM, at the Ice Cream Shop around the block?” I questioned him. “That’s right.” He answered and winked at me. “See you then.” He slung his bag lazily over his shoulder and left. I smiled to myself and left the class.
