Gwen's POV
I walked into class on my first day of high school and I immediately felt out of place. Obviously everyone already knew each other. I guess I had realized that when I decided to transfer to Torchwood academy in the middle of the grade eleven semester. In hein sight I'm amazed I even got in, it's pretty elite and I've never had the best grades. Good thing I've got great people skills, I should make friends no problem. My mom always said I was a carer with a warm heart.
I looked around the room to see who my new classmates were. The first person I saw was a slim Asian girl with glasses and short brown hair who had her nose in a textbook. She looked up at me so I smiled kindly at her but she then quickly looked away. Well fine then. I glanced over to the back of the room as I sat down beside her. Behind me was a tall girl with long blonde hair in a braid down her back. She looked nice but was engrossed in her phone so I decided not to bother her. Maybe I'll talk to her at lunch.
Suddenly a boy with a long navy coat and sparkling blue eyes waltzed into the room. And I thought I was late! He walked with an air of authority, like he owned the classroom or something. How arrogant. But wow he's gorgeous!
Just then the blonde girl called out
"Hey Jack! Sit beside me today?"
"No thanks, Grace. Maybe tomorrow?"
He shot her a dazzling smile. Maybe he'll sit beside me. That thought dissolved as he winked at me but walked right past. Is he flirting with me? As he stopped to decide which seat he would take today his eyes lit up and he walked to the back of the classroom. I turned in my seat to see him sit down beside a handsome boy in the back row who had a large coffee mug on his desk. He seemed alarmed as the boy named Jack moved his chair even closer to him making heart eyes as he did so. Gay? But I swear he winked at me and clearly the girls flirt with him. Whatever, I've never cared about labels anyways.
Just as the teacher finally walked in to the room, the Asian girl beside me turned and said,
"He's into everyone if you're wondering, that guy you were staring at? He'll flirt with anything on two legs. I'm Toshiko by the way, Toshiko Sato. Most people call me Tosh."
"Nice to meet you Tosh, I'm Gwen Cooper."
"Would you like to eat lunch with me today? I can tell you more about the school if you'd like."
Maybe this won't be a bad day after all.
"Yes." I replied. "I'd love to."
