Chapter One

*OC pov*

I kept to myself; you know being the new kid and all. I was trying to find my way around this new school called William McKinley High school. Oh, I haven't introduced myself yet I'm Cerys McGuire and I'm a sophmore, I guess that's what you call them. I just moved here from Scotland so and you can tell I'm not used not being in a uniform or all these accents. I was looking at the array of numbers on the lockers trying to find my own. 247, oh here it is. I put my locker combination in and try to open the locker but was having trouble. I kept pulling at it but it wouldn't open but just as I was about to give up a tall boy walked up to me. "Umm, do you need help?" he asked and I nodded. "Yes please" I replied. "Ah so you're not from here, are you?" he questioned while showing me how to open the locker. "What gave it away the accent or the fact that I can't open a locker?" I said. He opened the locker. "Thank you" I said and I started to put my folders and books in my locker. I expected him to go away but he stayed. "I'm Jake by the way" He said. "Well Jake, I've got to go so I'll see you around I guess" I said. I started to walk away. I went to my gym class.

*Jake's pov*

I just met this new girl, but she's not like Marley or any other girls. She didn't even tell me her name. I was leaning on the lockers when Marley came and held my hand. "Ready for class?" She asked. I shook these thoughts of this girl out of my brain and replied. "Yeah, let's go". And we walked to class.

*Cerys' pov*

I was walking out of gym class when I got stopped by a woman with short blonde hair and a swimming medal around her neck. "Umm, can I help you?" I asked, "The question is can I help you?" she said. "I don't understand" I said. "I am Coach Ros Washington, winner of a bronze gold medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China." She said. "I still don't get it" I said looking at her. "I am the coach of the cheerio's and I want you on my national winning squad. I saw you out on the field today and you seem to be perfect for my new team" She said. "Umm no thanks," and I walked away. She probably says that the all the students trying to get them to join. I walked down the hall to my locker to put my kit in my locker and get out my math book. I closed my locker door and I got the fright of my life. That Jake guy was leaning against the lockers waiting on me. "You know you should join glee club" He said. "Umm no thanks, I'm not depressed. I don't need a club to make me feel better about myself" I said starting to walk away, he started to walk with me. "No, glee club is show choir. We're called the New Directions" He said. "Did you just steal the name One Direction?" I asked. "No, anyway what is your name? It's only fair" Jake said. "Does it matter to you?" I asked. "Well, I would like to know" He said and I just nodded my head slightly. "My names Cerys" I said and looked at the ground. "That's a pretty name"
