Chapter One
Noise. Noise muffled together around me. I sat at my desk, in my study hall. Pen in hand and blank paper beneath it. The teacher stood in her corner on the computer. Considering the financial shortage, there was no teacher desk to be found in her class room. I lifted my soda in my hand and drank some, letting the cold liquid clear my mind, as I struggled to remember the history of the World Wars for my essay due next week.
My phone vibrated in my pocket and I quickly checked the text from under my desk.
Good choice earrings today. I looked to my right and saw a tall brown-haired boy sitting three desks down.
After a half hour, our teacher dismissed us to lunch, but I stayed. I pulled my lunch out of my paper bag and began eating at my desk, liking the fact that my teacher allowed me to eat in her room, considering the headaches I get from the cafeteria.
My phone vibrated again. I quickly checked it.
Having lunch alone again today? I looked up and saw the brunette in the doorway. I looked down to see another text. Come eat with me. I know a quiet spot to eat. Bring everything with you.
I gathered my things and went out into the hall. The boy smirked and took my backpack.
"I knew you'd be in for an adventure," he chuckled.
