"Hey Spencer!" I looked behind me to see my best friend Kyla running towards me, a big smile on her face as usual. I smiled back and waved at her. Kyla was my best friend and only friend in fact. People at my school find me weird for some reason. But that's probably because I don't talk to any of them or don't make an effort to. My name is Spencer Carlin, and I live in England. Manchester to be exact. I'm purely British, but my accent is very weak. Most people would think I'm American because of it, but I don't mind.
"What's up Kyla, you look really happy today." I patted her the shoulder. "Nothing special really, oh….but did you hear about the new girl that's coming to school, I hear she's American, her family is super rich. She's gay though, and a bit of a trouble maker." I looked at her for a moment, thinking to myself whether or not to believe her, Kyla always knows the latest gossip or the latest news, but some of them turn out to be false or not true. I could remember one time where she heard about this new guy coming to school and said that he was a thief and had been to prison. I of course rolled my eyes and that piece of news. Turns out that the guy didn't go to prison, he just looked like a guy that's come out of prison because he was so buff. I could remember Kyla's embarrassment when the guy told her that the rumors weren't true.
"Kyla, I swear to god, how do you find out about these things anyway, do you have like a partner in crime and go around listening to everything people say. She might not even be a trouble maker, people might just be saying that because of her appearance, not that I know what she looks like anyway." She looked at me a moment, eyebrows raised…..but before she could speak somebody accidentally bumped into me whilst I was walking, I ended up dropping my bags, sending some of my books sprawling to the floor. I sighed, what is it with people and not looking where they are going, this has happened to me quite a lot this year….people would always say "oops, sorry" or "sorry I didn't see you" what was she? Flippin' invisible! I don't think so. "Oh my god, I'm sorry, I'm so stupid, I didn't see where I was going…here let me help you" I bent down on my knees with the mystery girl and Kyla picking up my books and putting them in my bag. When I looked up I was met with the most beautiful shade of brown eyes that I've ever seen. She was really beautiful, she had long dark hair that's tied up and bangs that were died red, it really suited noticed me staring for way to long, and nudged me in the shoulder, stopping my day dream.
"Oh, um, sorry….it's not problem, I should've watched where I was going anyways, hey, your new here aren't you….I've never seen you around school before." I looked her and she gave the most adorable smile I've ever seen, plus a nose crinkle, awww so cute! Snap out of It Spencer. You see everyone thinls I'm gay, because I've never had a boyfriend and I've never kissed a boy. Kyla even caught me looking at girly porn magazines one time. But to be honest with you, I'm just so confused right now, because I don't really know what my sexuality is. I've never really found someone I really liked. And I've never really looked at boys that way. Kyla says she won't mind if I was gay, she's such a good friend. I even spoke to my parents and asked them what would they feel if they found out that I was gay. They just smiled at me and gave me a hug, saying that they'll love me no matter what my sexuality is.
"Yeah, I am actually, just moved here from LA, parents got a much better Job offer. The names Ashley by the way Ashley Davies." She took her hand out from her pocket and I shook her hand, smiling. "Nice to meet you Ashley, I'm Spencer Carlin, and this is my best friend Kyla."
"Nice to meet you both, anyways, do you know where the music rooms are, I have music next and I have no clue where I'm going." She said her voice sounding husky and angelic to my ears. "Yes I do actually, it's down the hall then you turn right."
"Thankyou so much, ummm, gotta go, but I hope to bump into you guys soon, well I don't mean bump, but, oh ya know what I mean." I giggled and waved goodbye, smiling at the fact that she was rambling. "She sooooo likes you." I turned my head quickly and saw Kyla smirking at me with her arms crossed. If there weren't any teachers around I swear I'd wipe that smirk of her face, but to bad right now I can't "What are you talking about Ky…..she was just being friendly, and besides….she's new here, of course she'd be like that on her first day."
"Nu uh Spence, she was staring at you the whole time, and didn't you hear the way you rambled, it sounded like she was really shy, and being cautious of what she was saying because she wanted to impress you." I just shook my head and slapped her shoulder, earning a pout from her in return. The bell rang signaling that students had to be in class, but me and Kyla had a free period, so we just say in the 6th form Cafeteria, taking our snack boxes out, and munching into our sandwiches. Damn, I was so hungry, English class was so broing….the teacher was going on and on about some poor bloke who falsely accused his wife for cheating on him, and that the baby he was carrying wasn't his, but his best friends! I hate storys, where they make the girls always seem like the culprit, it's so sexist and way too stereotypical.
An hour later that bell rang and people were pushing and shoving each other, trying to get some food from the cafeteria. Me and Kyla had already eaten, so we just sat there chatting to each other, when I saw Ashley out of the corner of my eye, looking lost on where to sit. Kyla, being the nice girl that she is, waved her over, and she smiled when she saw me. I blushed and just played with the chocolate wrapper in my hand. "Hey Kyla….hello Spencer, I'm very happy to see you again." She looked at me in the eyes, and I just blushed bright red again, before putting on a smile. I heard Kyla trying to stifle a giggle, and I kicked her leg under the table. There, that got her to shut up. "Hey, how was your first lesson, did it go well?"
"Yeah, but people were looking at me funny…I think it's because of the fact that I'm new, and American, I'm guessing you don't really get many American teenagers going to this school huh. Or maybe it's because I'm…uh….not into guys."
"Ashley, just ignore them, there idiots, I don't care if people are gay or bi or whatever, as long as they've got a good personality, that's just fine with me." I looked at Kyla, happy at the fact that she was trying to make Ashley seem more comfortable. She always had a good heart and saw the good in people, even though they weren't so nice to her in the beginning. You see, Kyla is a bit small, and people have been making fun of her because of her size, at first she was annoyed, but she got over it and ended up ignoring them in the end. Some of those girls actually turned out to be her friends, and they apologized later on in the year for calling her a midget and other mean names that I couldn't recall. "Yeah Ashley, don't worry about it, they'll get over it, once they hear some other juicy gossip, besides I think your great" Ashley smiled at me and began to fiddle her hands at my compliment. Aww she was just to adorable. Stop it Spencer, you keep complimenting her. "Thanks Spencer I appreciate that."
The day went by, and before I new it, it was time to go home, me and Kyla were walking out of the school when we heard a car honking. We turned round to see Ashley in a fancy Jaguar, the latest model that's come out this year. My mouth was hanging wide open, and kyla put her hand on my chin to shut it. "You beautiful ladies need a ride home?" Before I could answer Kyla screamed "Yes!" and jumped into the backseat. I shrugged my shoulders and got into the front.
