Ugh, it was time for the new school year. I was getting out of my car to go meet my best friend since preschool, Marlee. I got out of my car, and took out my phone and purse. Just as I was walking into the Starbucks that was on campus, I got a text from Marlee.

M- Are you here yet?

A- Walking in

M-K, I'm at a table

I walked in, and went to greet Marlee.

"Go get your drink, Ames!"

"Ok, I'll be right back"

I went to order my regular Caramel Frappaccino, and was checking Instagram on my phone while I was walking back to Marlee. Suddenly I slammed into someone, and my crop top was drenched in what looked like a latte. I looked up to see a boy that looked my age with blond hair and brown eyes. (A/N Guess who it is :p)

"Who are you?", I asked.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry! My name is Maxon, Maxon Schreave."

"Schreave?! As in Principal Schreave's son?"

"Oh, well yeah...", he said sheepishly.

"Well, you get no mercy for what you did", I said teasingly while pointing to my soaked crop top."

"Oh um, sorry about that, I can get you a new one. Let me help you up", he said offering me a hand.

I grabbed onto it , but pulled him down with me once I had a grip on it.

"Damn girl!", did you ahve to do that?" he said. "That reminds me, I didn't get your name".

"America Singer at your service", I told him after I stood up. I even gave him a small curtsey".

At that point Marlee saw what happened to me, and came over.

"America!, she gasped. "You're soaked! Did he have anything to do with this?". She said while she eyed Maxon.

"Well Marlee, it was kind of both of our faults", I said.

"Come on America, let's get you change", she said. Then she looked at Maxon, and said "Thanks for everything Schreave".

"Hold on! I can give you the keys to your dorms!', Maxon said before we turned to leave.

"Umm thanks...", I said.

"Follow me to my car".

We followed Maxon to his car, which happened to a red ferrari.

"Nice car!", I complimented.

"Thanks, my father got it for me for my birthday".

Maxon opened his trunk where there was a box full of keys with tags. "Okay Marlee, and America..., Ok, found it! You guys are roomates by the way.", he said as he handed us the key.

"Thanks! Well, see you later, I guess..."

"Yeah!, maybe at lunch, or class?"

"Sure! Marlee can you come with me?"

"Ok!"

Marlee and I walked to my car and got my suitcases out, and then walked to her car to get hers.

"I can't believe we're roomates!", I said excitedly.

"I know! This is going to be the best year ever!"

Together we walked to our dorm and set our stuff inside. I grabbed a shirt, and swapped it with my soaked one. Then, I heard an announcement from the loudspeaker in our room. The voice belonged to Principal Schreave.

"Good morning students! Please walk to your homerooms to get your schedules and dorm keys! Last names A-F report to room B-2. G-K to room E-4, L-Q to room C-3, and X-Z to room D-1!"

"Yes! We have the same homeroom!", Marlee squealed.

"I know!, Let's go!", I said, grabbing my backpack, and headed out the door with Marlee.

Together we walked to room A-5, and sat down next to each other. I saw a bunch of other students file in, including Maxon. When he walked in, he winked at me, and I rolled my eyes, but smiles. Then the teacher came in.

"Hello everyone, my name is Mrs. Silvia, and I will be you homeroom teacher, and for some of you, your history teacher"

Then she passed around our schedules. Marlee and I compared our results, and saw that we had 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th period together.

My schedule was:

1- Homeroom - Mrs. Silvia
2- Math - Mr. Avery
3- Science - Mr. August
4- English Language Arts - Mrs. Georgia
5- History - Ms. Silvia
6- Gym - Coach Johnson
7- Cheer - Coach Johnson

The bell soon rang, and everyone filed out. soon Marlee and I were joined by Maxon.

"Hey, can I have you numbers", he asked smiling."

"Umm why?"

"Oh, so I can text and call you guys"

"Oh, okay", I said as Marlee and I punched in our numbers into his phone, and he gave us his. Then we exchanged schedules, and I saw that I had periods 1-5 with him. Then we entered Math. In the middle of class, Maxon started texting me.

MA- This class is so boring!

A- I know! I wanna ditch

MA- Hmm... How bout I spice things up

A-?

MA- Just Watch

I watched horrified, as Maxon took out, what looked like confetti eggs, and silently rolled 5 over to me, since we were sitting next to each other. I gave 2 to Marlee, and when she looked at me confused, I pointed to Maxon and she nodded. I silently held up my fingers to show 3-2-1, and then we threw our eggs randomly in the room. Confetti went everywhere, and Maxon was filming everything on Snapchat. Mr. Avery looked horrified, and for the rest of the period, he tried to figure out who created such a mess, but had no luck. After 2nd period, Marlee, Maxon, and I burst out laughing. We went to 3rd, and 4th period, and then it was time for lunch. Marlee and I got a coke, fries, and a hamburger, and sat down at a table with Celeste, and Elise, 2 girls we had met that were very friendly.

"Mind if we join you girls?"

I turned around to see Maxon with 3 other boys.

"Sure!", I said.

After they sat down, Maxon introduced me to his friends.

"This is Carter"

"Hey!"

This is Eliott"

"Hi!"

"And this is Adam"

"Sup!"

"Umm okay, my turn I guess", I said. "I'm America, this is Marlee, Celeste, and Elise".

"Cool", they all said.

During lunch, we all talked about our day, and the whole time I could see Carter staring at Marlee. I smirked. They would make such a cute couple.

"So are you guys trying out for cheer?', Eliott asked.

"Oh, yeah", Elise said.

"Maybe one of us can beat Kriss for captain this year", Celeste suggested.

"Who's Kriss?", I asked.

Kriss is queen of the bitches at this school, and she has a total crush on Maxon", Marlee told me.

Just then, a girl with brown hair and eyes walked up to our table.

"That's Kriss", Carter whispered to me.

"Great...", I replied.

"Maxy!", Kriss said in a disgusting baby voice.

"Kriss.. uh, hi...", Maxon said nervously.

"Maxy why don't you come sit with me away from all these losers"

"Uh FYI, these are my friends, unlike you"

"Hmph" Kriss said as she walked away.

We continued lunch, until is was time to go, and we all exchanged numbers.

Maxon and I walked to our next class, which was ELA with Mrs. Georgia.

Throughout class Maxon and I kept texting each other. We were becoming very good friends, and I couldn't help but feel like I liked him a little bit.

MA- Meet u at u and Mar's dorm with the guys + Celeste and Elise

A- Ya, tell me about football tryouts

MA- Then tell me about cheer :p

Then the bell rang, and Maxon and I said goodbye. My next period was gym with Coach Johnson, who was also the cheer coach.

I finished gym wihtouth and incident, and Celeste, Elise, and I talked about cheer that was our next period.

We met up with Marlee, and together we walked to cheer. When we got there, we saw Kriss and her bitch cronies, Daphne and Izzy.

Coach Johnson walked in, and we all started warming up.

Kriss was called first, and she performed gracefully. I didn't know if anyone could beat her, but I would try my best. Marlee, Celeste, and Elise were all called, and did very good. After waiting, it was finally my turn.

I thought I did okay, but Coach Johnson said my performance was terrific!

He then told all the girls to line up, and told us who was on the team.

The girls and I all got in, but so did Kriss, and her bitch sidekicks.

Finally, it was time to see who would become cheer captain.

"Kriss Ambers and America Singer please step forward"

Kriss eyed me evilly as we did as we were told.

"Alright girls, you both did very well, but only one of you can become cheer captain. I am proud to announce that this years cheer captain is..."
AMERICA SINGER!"

"Oh my god!", I shouted

If looks could kill, I would be dust by the way Kriss was glaring at me.

Suddenly Elise pulled Marlee, Celeste, and I into a big group hug, and afterwards got our uniforms. Then, the girls and I went to a nearby mall, since school was over. We shopped at some of my favorite stores, and bought some cute new clothes. When we got back on campus, we walked into Marlee and I's dorm. I told the girls that the guys would be coming soon to join us, and we put on a movie to pass the time.
