Chapter 1
"I hate algebra" I told my friend Dave Turner as we worked on our math problems during lunch. The new semester just started and already we were piled with homework. Dave and I weren't doing our radio show today since it doesn't start until next week.
"I know Adam, but I have to do well this semester. If I don't, my pops will take away my gaming privileges," Dave said. He looked down at his homework with a frustrated look. Suddenly, Dave's cell phone started beeping and that could mean only one thing; his girlfriend Alli was texting him.
"You know Alli is really good at math, why don't you let her help you?" I suggested. To be honest, I only agreed to help Dave with his homework because I had no nothing to do during lunch, but all this algebra was hurting my head. My friends Clare and Eli were off somewhere, probably making out and I didn't want to be the third wheel.
"You're right, besides you kind of suck at math Adam."
"Oh thanks, that's really kind of you to say. At least I've gotten further than you on my homework."
"Whatever, I have to go meet Alli."
"Of course you do. Everyone ditches me for their girlfriends. And who do I have by my side? Oh yeah, no one."
"Don't worry dude, you'll find a girlfriend this semester."
"I don't see girls fighting to be with the only transgender guy in school. Face it, I'm going to be alone forever," I sulked. Ever since Bianca and Fiona rejected me, I've been in the dumps, feeling sorry for myself. And to make things worse, I almost got hooked up with a guy from grade 9. I have to just accept the fact that I'm going to be single for the rest of my life.
"Trust me, you'll find that special someone. Alli never gave me a first glance when I first met her, now we're dating. Have some faith dude."
"Yeah yeah, go make out with your girlfriend," I pushed him away. After Dave left, I decided that there was no point in sitting around doing nothing, so I took out my MacBeth book that we had to read for English class. I never told anyone this, but I actually like this book. A man so greedy for power, he'll do anything it takes to get it. I started reading it when suddenly I heard a voice,
"You're reading MacBeth? That's my favorite book by Shakespeare! What do you think of it?"
I was about to give whoever was talking a dirty look, when I come into contact with those gorgeous eyes and instantly fell in love.
Who could this mystery person Adam fell for? You'll have to wait for chapter 2...
