Chapter 1
New to Town
Vroooooom
Shannon kept her head down, and walked faster down the sidewalk tears streaming down her face. She was angry, so angry. She was mad at her parents, sister, friends, basically the world in general.
Vrooooom
"I wish that motorcycle would just freaking pass already" I muttered to myself angrily as I swiped at my tears. It did and I did not look up, but kept walking head down till a pair of feet appeared in front of me. "Could you please direct me to this address?" came a deep voice from above me.
I looked up angrily and found a very handsome tall blonde boy. He grinned boyishly and stuck out the address. 1212 Gunther Lane. I knew this street, because I lived one street over, I thought as I read the paper silently. I gripped the paper and cut through the yard to my left. The boy jogged to keep up to my short legged fast pace.
When I came to the end of my shortcut we were standing on Luther Street.
I looked to the left and pointed out Gunther Lane to the boy, and pressed the address back into his hands.
"Thanks" said the boy and he turned and headed back to his motorcycle.
I turned and ran down to my street (Gaia road) and headed home.
I opened the door and was greeted by silence. Mom was in her room asleep and dad was on the computer as usual. I passed through the living room into the kitchen, and grabbed a soda.
Still no greeting.
I sighed and walked into my room shutting the door behind me. I flopped on my bed and turned on my tv and flipped through the channels looking for a good show. About 3 hours later I was asleep.
I yawned and looked over at my clock I had fallen asleep in front of the tv. The clock read 6:00 a.m. I sat up stomach growling. I had forgotten about dinner again. Rolling out of bed I grabbed my clothes, and threw them on and walked into the kitchen to grab a pop-tart passing my sister fast asleep on the couch.
I ate, grabbed my stuff, and was out the door and on the bus to school no less than 15 min.

"Welcome to Oak Grove" Rei Kashino read aloud as he passed the sign. Had it really been only 2 months ago Kira and he had broken up? he asked himself silently. Their Junior year together had been perfect till Summer came, and everything went downhill. Kira had been accepted to an art school in London, and had to leave him.
It was probably the hardest thing he'd ever done, but he loved Kira and would do anything to see her happy. Not to long after, his father thought Rei would be better off if he spent his senior year in America to clear his mind a bit.
Whoa" Rei cried swerving as a short girl with long curly golden brown hair leapt a bush and hit the sidewalk walking at an oddly fast pace. She came outta nowhere he thought as he drove behind her. Maybe she can help me he thought.
He then sped up and passed her, and then pulled over in front of her. She didn't seem to notice him till she was right up on him. "Could you please direct me to this address?" he asked her. She looked up at him with an angry look on her face. He stared into her intense blue eyes for a couple seconds, then smiled and handed her the address.
She looked at it for a few seconds then took off. Dang she's fast he thought as he jogged to keep up. They cut through a yard and ended up on an unfamiliar street. She stared down the left side then pointed out 1212 Gunther Lane.
"Thanks" he smiled then headed back for his bike. He picked it up, hopped on, and started up the engine.
He took off toward 1212 Gunther Lane. He pulled up into a street full of apartments. He pulled out another piece of paper and searched for his apartment 319. He found it and went in and began to move himself in.
His dad had already enrolled him at Oak Grove High, so all was good there. A few hours later he climbed into bed to get ready for his first day at a new school. Before he clicked off the light he pulled out a picture of Kira and stared at it for a few seconds then curiously flipped it over, Kira had given it to him before she had left and he'd never checked the back.
It read
Rei, You're a great person and I love you, but I can't keep you to myself.
I know you'll find someone who is perfect for you and will bring out the parts in you I couldn't.
Love Kira.
A single tear slid down Rei's cheek. He placed the picture beneath his pillow and then clicked the light off and was asleep.

"Hey Shannon" called one of her best Brooke Garren. I snapped out of my daydream and walked over to her.
"What's up?" I asked smiling. I mentally marked fake smile of the day #1. "Not much just ready for summer" she said wearily. "Brooke it's the first day of school" I spoke slowly. She laughed "I know" she said still giggling. I shook my head laughter in my eyes.
Just then I saw the boy from yesterday walk down the hall. The laughter in my eyes died instantly and my eyes became stone cold grey.
"What's the matter?" Brooke asked. She then turned to see what I was seeing. "Whoa! who's the hottie!"she cried.
"Not sure" I lied. Just then his head snapped in my direction.
He smiled and winked at me, but kept walking. I noticed he was following the principal. "Do you know him?" Brooke squealed.
"I kind of met him yesterday." I began. "He asked for directions, and I pointed out the address he needed that's all" I finished abruptly.
Brooke opened her mouth to say something, but the bell rang for first block, so I waved quickly and took off for my first class which was English IV with Dr. Litton one of my favorite teachers.

Rei woke up feeling good for once in a long while.
He stood up stretched and began to get dressed. As he began to make himself some breakfast the girl from yesterday popped in his mind. He wondered what could make that young girl's eyes so intense. He shook it off, and sat down to eat his cereal. After he finished he went out to his bike hopped on and headed for Oak Grove high.
He was lucky that the school was only a few blocks from his apartment, he'd passed it not to long before he met the girl with the intense eyes.
He parked his bike and headed into the office. The secretary directed him to the principal informing him he would take him to his first class. He thanked her as the principal walked out and told him to follow him.
As they turned the corner of the first hall he spotted the girl from yesterday staring in disbelief at him. He smiled and winked at her.
"Ok just a little further" the principal called back to him. "Your first class is English IV with Dr. Litton" the principal said turning to face him.
"Here's your list of classes just ask Dr. Litton to choose a student to help you find the rest of your class's ok." spoke the principal.
He then turned and left Rei in front of the classroom. Rei walked inside and over to the teacher and relayed everything the principal had said. "Ok have a seat" Dr. Litton told him.
Rei went and sat in the far row in the middle. As soon as he sat down the bell rang for class to start.

"Shannon can I please see you for a minute?" called the vice principal.
"Yes Mrs. Graves?" I asked. Mrs. Graves was one of the few teachers I really liked, well she was a teacher till she got promoted to vice principal.
"I was wondering if you could ask your mom to make me a copy of the publisher 2000 disc, you see the Desktop Publisher class needs an extra copy of the" she broke into my thoughts.
"Sure" I said snapping back to reality.
"Thanks" she said turning to walk off.
"Have a good day Mrs. Graves" I called.
"Thank you , you too" she called.
I turned to head to class and noticed the hallway was noticeably less crowded.
"Oh geez I'm gonna be late" I cried and took off to class. "There you are Shannon" said my teacher as I walked in the bell rang as I shut the door.
"I had just finished calling row, your seats over there" he pointed out the seat next to.... Oh no I'm next to him I thought wildly.
I walked reluctantly over to my seat.
"Hey Shannon" said the boy. I looked ahead. I'm not sure what my problem was today but that wasn't helping. "Hey" he called again.
I stared down at my notebook , but the next thing I knew as I looked up to see where the teacher was I was face to face with the boy.
He was leaning on my desk. I began to breathe hard. I then called aloud "Dr. Litton may I go to the restroom?"
Dr. Litton looked up "Sure" he said. I bolted to the door and began to fill out the pass.
"Shannon since you seem to know Rei here why don't you be the one to show him around?" Dr. Litton said thoughtfully.
"Rei?" I asked quizzically.
Oh duh I thought the new guy. "Ok." I said reluctantly and then turned and fled to the bathroom Rei's face on my mind. What is with me? I shook my head hard as I stared in the mirror.
Why does that boy keep bothering with me? Shouldn't he be bothering someone like Belina?? all these questions flowed through my head at once.
I then leaned over and turned the faucet on and cupped my hands beneath the stream of water. Once my hands were filled with water I splashed the mirror once, twice, then three times.
I smiled as the glass no looked broken and then the water rivulets split apart.
That's better I thought then I turned and headed back to class.
