"Class" Mrs. Hughes said " today it is my pleasure to announce that we have a new student." Jade White nervously entered the room. Jade was an African-American who recently transferred from an elementary school on the other side of town. "Jade, sit in the empty seat between Sherman and Penny." Jade stared at a blonde girl and a red haired boy. The red haired boy was... gorgeous. He had hazel eyes hidden behind rather large glasses. Jade took her seat.
"Okay class" Mrs. Hughes said. "Pull out your history books and turn to page 263. You will be working with a partner today. Sherman, you'll be working with Jade."
The second she sat down, Sherman grinned at her. "Hi I'm Sherman. Nice to meet you."
Jade smiled weakly. "Nice to meet you too."
A friendly face and an extremely attractive boy; maybe this new school wouldn't be so bad after all.
