Chapter One!
Author's note: I'm reusing a few chapters from Don't Fall For Me and has changed some details. I will also be switching from one POV to another. Sometimes, it'll be from a third person's POV. I hope it'll be obvious, the POVs. Oh, review! although there's probably nothing much to review…

Audrey sighed heavily as she pushed up her glasses again. All these numbers were making her head swirl and she can't focus properly.
Then, glancing at the calendar, Audrey smiled and crossed out another day. Roxanne is coming over in three days! Apparently, she's coming in her March holidays and not the June holidays. Although this holiday would be shorter, it was sooner.
Looking back at the mathematics textbook, Audrey frowned, with her fingers twitching. How I wish I could hurl that book at the wall. But after debating mentally for two seconds, she shut the textbook closed and stretched.
"Let's call it a day, Kay. We've been at this forever, but still going nowhere." Audrey mumbled to the other bespectacled girl beside her.
Michaela, whose nickname was Kay, chewed on her pen distractedly. "No, wait a minute. I think I'm getting it."
Audrey smiled and looked at Kay. Under the dim light, her sun-streaked hair looked messy in a loose braid. She looked every bit like a swimmer; her tan, her build and her hair. But when it came to studies, Kay always persevered and thus her straight As.
Finally, after lots of scribbling and chewing, she leaned back. "Fine. I guess I can't think straight with my eyes half-open."
"Come on, then. Kim and the rest are already sleeping. Let's wash up and get into bed. It's going to be an early morning tomorrow."
"Tell me which morning isn't early." Kay groaned and then rubbed her eyes. "Oh, alright. Goodnight, Audrey."
Audrey nodded. "Sleep sweet."
(Three days later)
"Roxy! Here, Roxy!" Kim shouted out, hands waving madly in the air, trying to catch Kim's attention. Then her hands dropped to her sides. "Urgh, she's still as blur as ever!"
Roxanne was in the near distance, head turning around frantically, trying to find the other five of us.
Kim fanned herself and rolled her eyes. "Someone go get her. She's hopeless."
Audrey hit Kim's arm jokingly and then ran off to meet Roxy. She tapped her on Roxy's back and her head whipped around. Roxy's eyes looked guarded at first, but a huge smile soon came onto her face when she recognized Audrey. Roxy dropped her suitcases and threw her arms over Audrey.
Audrey hugged her back, laughing as she did so. Roxy stepped away and then asked eagerly, "Where are the rest? Oh my gosh, I miss you guys so much!"
Audrey grabbed a few of her suitcases and the led her to the rest of their clique.
"Roxy, I give you Michaela, Kimberly, and me, Audrey." Audrey made a grand gesture.
"I know. I know. I haven't forgotten any of you. Come here, group hug!" Roxy squealed and stretched out her arms. Everybody surged forward and hugged her tightly. The next few minutes was wasted as they took turns hugging Roxy and then having small chat about the things that happened back home.
And then they did the things which they loved most—taking pictures.
They cam-whored for a whole half an hour, just at the airport. They smiled and pouted and posed for the camera. Finally, Audrey glanced at her watch and gasped.
"It's so late now! Let's bring Roxy back to our little apartment." Audrey then turned to Roxy. "We prepared a room for you already."
But Roxy was looking past her and so were the other girls.
Annoyed that the rest weren't listening to her, and a tad curious, Audrey turned around…
… to see a boy looking at all of them.
And he was no normal boy. He was extraordinarily handsome and tall, complete with honey blond hair. He was now staring at Roxy, his muscular body all tensed up. And when he finally looked at Audrey, she caught sight of those black irises.
Audrey wasn't weirded out by the black irises, for Asians like her have brown-black irises too. What shocked her, was the look that he gave all of them.
I don't know him, he don't know me and I'm pretty sure that my friends don't know him, either. So what have we done, to make such a good-looking guy look at us like that? Audrey thought to herself. It was definitely not a happy look. I don't know how to describe it, but that guy over there was giving off major unfriendly vibes.
Audrey narrowed her eyes back at him. That just proves that all good-looking guys are jerks, with this one giving them killer glares for no rhyme or reason. Audrey spun around and clapped her hands loudly.
"Hey, no time for drooling anymore. Wipe your mouths clean, and oh dear, close your mouth, Kim!" I picked up Roxy's suitcases once more. "I think we should call a cab, don't you think?"
Everybody snapped out of their trances and started moving. Audrey could still quite tell that they haven't quite recovered from their shock, what with the moving stiffly and all.
They were just getting on a cab when a cheerful female voice said, "What are you looking at, …
…Jasper?"
"Seen target? Over." A raspy voice cackled out of a walkie-talkie.
A hand raised the walkie-talkie to the mouth. "Yes. Target has been spotted, sir. Over, sir"
"Good. Keep target in sight. Do not fail me this time. You know this is your last chance. Over." A threatening edge entered the raspy voice.
The hand trembled slightly, and then gripped the walkie-talkie tighter. "No, sir, I won't screw up this one. Over, sir."
"Over and out."
