Chapter One: New School

"Alexis Maria Gordan! Are you ready yet?" my aunt, Shelley, yells up the stairs.

I take one last look at the old gray cap that used to be on his head, shoved it in the back of my closet, and scream back, "Yeah Auntie Shelley! I'll be right down!"

I quickly threw on some skinny jeans and a gray T-shirt, pulled my black hair into a high pony tail, smeared some eyeliner around my slate blue eyes, and my purple Converse. I sprint down the stairs, say "I love you" to Auntie Shelley and head out the door. I climb into my Jeep and drive to my new school, Degrassi.

As I pull around the corner the school was in my eyesight.

It looks just like any other school, I think. I park Gump (I named my car Gump because it was a dark forest green and when I was younger I loved the movie Forest Gump).

I grab my backpack from the back seat and enter my new school. I take a look at my schedule and try to memorize it while walking.

Okay, first period French, then gifted math, then science, recreation gym, lunch, then advanced eleventh grade English, history, and then health.

As I turn a corner I bump right into someone and spill my books all over.

"Oh my God, I am so sorry, I'm such a klutz!" I exclaim.

I get on my knees on pick up some of my books. The person picks up the rest of them.

I hear the person say, "Nah, it's okay. I wasn't watching where I was going."

I stand up to see who it was. It was a guy with a gray beanie on, he had brown hair that was slightly tinted red, he wore a plaid shirt with a long-sleeve white shirt underneath that was pushed up to his elbows, but his amazing clear blue eyes is what stood out.

He stuck out his hand. "I'm Adam Torres."

I shook his hand. "Alexis Gordan. I just moved in with my auntie Shelley a few days ago so I'm new."

"Nice to meet you, Alexis." He smiles at me and his blue eyes sparkle.

I could feel a smile pulling on my lips. "You too, Adam."

We stand there for a little longer, but then I begin to walk away.

I hear him say behind me, "Uh, Alexis?"

I turn on one heal. "Yeah?"

"Do you want to eat lunch with me and my friends?" he asks sounding a bit unsure. He's so damn hot!

"Yeah, defiantly," I answer.

"Okay, cool. What do you have before lunch?"

"Recreation gym."

"Really? Me too! I guess I'll see you there." He rubs his hand on the back of his neck.

"'Course."

I turn around again and head to Spanish. I'm liking this new school.
