It was 6:45 on a Friday morning when Gabriel Gray woke from him sleep. Rain pounded the windows as he got dressed and looked in the mirror trying desperately to make sure that his hair was perfect. Gabriel was only sixteen years old but nonetheless he helped his father, Martin, in the family business. Watch repairs. Gabriel was incredibly adept with this because he could identify what was wrong with the watches and was able to work to fix them perfectly. He could even do so from across the room. Gabriel walked out of his room after getting dressed and went to the kitchen making himself a bowl of cereal. While he did that he finished some of his homework he had forgotten about. At 7:30 he got his backpack and walked outside. It was pouring. A rare sight in this area of Odessa. He failed to see the white van on the corner that read Primatech Paper.
Claire Bennet kissed her father goodbye as she exited the car. Claire Bennet was one of the most popular girls at Union Wells High School. She was soon joined by her fellow cheerleaders Jackie Wilcox and Elizabeth Bishop. Their first class was biology. "Welcome to another year at Union Wells and to your biology class. My name is Mr. Wylde if you have any questions about the course please do not be afraid to ask," the teacher said. "Now you are going to be grouped together. These groups will remain for the entire year." He started to write on the chalkboard after looking on the class list.

Claire sighed. Gabriel Gray was one of those silent types. He kept out of the way of several of the jocks and never got involved in anyhting that didn't involve him. One a plus side though he was one of the smartest person in the school. Gabriel moved into the seat next to her and introduced himself. As Mr. Wylde explained what they were going to start off with the basics of biology and wrote down some words that they were to define using the books and NOT technology Claire kept sneaking glances at Gabriel. He was a bit HOT if he would stop wearing glasses. 'Wait, Claire, you can't possibly be falling for a nerd' she tought to herself. It was at that moment that she realized that she was totally falling for him.
