Chapter 1
The meeting
It was the first day of the 8th grade. I walked into the building and into the school gym. That is where all the classes had to meet before they could start the official day of school. Once the whole class was together I saw all of my friends and three new kids. Their names were Kiara, Brenda, and James. This James kid looked familiar but I couldn't figure out where I've seen him. Oh well probably no big deal. We enter the classroom and we all pick our seats. James picked the seat right next to me. Great, now during 1st period I have to look at him and try to figure out how I knew him. Then I notice there was black hair sticking out of his blonde hair. Strange. I finally say something to him.
"Hi. My name is Kayla. Your name is James right? I have a question. Did you dye the ends of your hair black?" I said.
"Yea I'm James and yes I do dye the ends of my hair black." He said but it sounded like a lie.
"Oh just wondering." I said.
We didn't talk for the rest of the day but I knew he was staring at me. The next day the ends of his hair were not black. Instead one eye was bright blue just like yesterday while the other was dark brown. Now I had an idea where I've seen him before. Today I asked him a different question.
"Hey James. Do you mind if I ask you another question." I said while we were switching classes.
"Sure. Go right ahead." James said.
"This is going to sound crazy." I said. Then I whispered, "Are you who I think you are?"
"Who do you think I am?" he said getting a little nervous now.
I whispered again but this time in his ear. "Joe Jonas?"
He grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the rest of the class. He took me to a corner of the room. He was nervous and curious. I was scared. Was he going to hurt me? Was he going to yell? I was braising myself for the worst.
"OK. How did you possibly know that I was Joe Jonas?" He said
"Well it really came to me today when you showed up to school with one blue eye and one brown eye and the ends of your hair weren't black. Then I looked at the poster in my desk and it came to me. Joe Jonas. I can't believe I didn't think about that."
"You have to promise you won't tell anybody. Swear." He said.
"I swear. Besides I wasn't going to tell anybody anyway." I replied.
"Good now lets get back to class." Joe said.
We walked back to the middle of the class. When we got there, everyone was staring at us. Throughout the day I was being asked the same question 'What happened between you and James?' The day finally ended and then I went home. I actually couldn't wait for tomorrow now because I would be spending time with Joe.
