David Gordon watched the new girl as she crossed the room and flung herself into a chair, his eyes danced over the appearance he'd smiled at so many times in his English class. Her hair had very prominent blue streaks about two inches of the tips, the remainder of her hair still sunshine blonde and was tousled upon her head. Her pretty face was red with anger and a small scratch upon the side of her forehead, but other wise unscathed. She leaned back in the chair and took a deep breath, running her hands over her black jeans. He saw three scratches across her bare arm, revealed by her white tank top. She lifted her head and opened her eyes, catching his stare.
For several odd seconds, his gazed was locked as he stared into her blue eyes, dancing with anger. She broke the stare first, her eyes going to her feet.
He put down the papers he was holding, walked quickly into the nurses office. His eyes caught the reflection in the mirror, his curly charcoal colored hair was slightly more unruly than usual after his dash out of the house. His blue eyes sparkled with the anticipation of talking to the girl he'd quietly watched for the last week. He quickly grabbed an ice pack then walked back into the main office. He advanced slowly towards her, holding the pack out. "Here, put this on your head," he suggested softly.
"What?" she snapped defensively, jerking her head up.
"Easy," he smiled softly, holding his free hand up, as his other offered the icepack again. "Thought you might be able to use this."
Her eyes flashed as she glared at it, then quickly plucked it from him hand. She pressed it to her forehead as she let her head drop back and closed her eyes. He continued to watch her, fascinated. She was new, only her first week of school, and already in a fight.
Her eyes opened and she stared impatiently at him. "Need something?"
"What happened?" he asked, trying not to smile. "How did you get into a fight with Kate Sanders?"
"She's not exactly the friendliest girl in school," she stated, rolling her eyes. "Aren't you in my English class?"
"Yeah, David Gordon, but my friends call me Gordo," he explained, shoving his hands into his pockets.
"Elizabeth McGuire!" The principal, Ms. Ungermeyer snapped from her office doorway, her small face a mask of fury. "In my office, now." She turned and quickly disappeared.
The girl stood up and started for the office. "When I have friends, they call me Lizzie," she smiled at him, tossing him the ice pack before she went into the office.
