This story is set when Max and Zoe are in school. Zoe is fifteen and Max is fourteen. I've put Lofty, Linda, Jess, Kirsty, Robyn and Adam in the story as well although they won't all be in this chapter. Zoe is rich in the story and Max's family just have an average amount of money.

Zoe's POV:

I woke up to my alarm at 6am wishing I could just go back to sleep. First day back at school and first day of year 10, hopefully this year is as good as or better than the last. The school have decided to try something different this year, mixed form groups where we have each year group mixed together. I got out of bed after 10 minutes of just relaxing there and went in the shower. I washed my hair before getting out and getting dressed. I put my white shirt, back blazer and blue striped tie on and my black short skirt on. If my skirt was any shorter you would be able to see my bum but that's how the boys like it so all of my friends do it. I decided against tights today so that then I could show off my legs a bit better. The school had banned us from wearing heels to school now so I had to stick to wearing black dolly shoes but I didn't mind. I got my hair dryer out to dry my hair which didn't take long. I straightened it and styled it. My brown hair came down to just past my boobs so I made sure it looked good. I puffed my hair up slightly and looked in the mirror deciding it was done. I got my make-up out of the drawer and added some of that next. My eye liner, foundation and mascara was done. All I had to do was add my trade-mark red lipstick and then I was done. I put my books into my bag along with my make-up that I took everywhere. I put my phone into my blazer pocket as well as a couple of pens and pencils that I would use throughout the day. I went downstairs and took the tenner off of the side that my dad had left out last night for me. I put two pieces of bread into the toaster and poured myself a glass of orange juice. Whist I waited for my toast to cook I grabbed an apple and a bag of crisps putting them in my bag for later. My toast was done so I buttered them and eat them quickly before going upstairs again and brushing my teeth. I added more lipstick and went back downstairs. My friends knock for me considering they walk this way to get to school. They knocked at 20 past 8 meaning we only had 20 minutes to get to school but that would be fine as it was only fifteen minutes away.

"Hey" I said as I opened the door. Linda, Kirsty and Jess were stood on the other side of it. We all had out skirts short as we walked out. I locked the door behind me considering my dad was still in bed. We walked down the street seeing all the other students on our way. We were considered some of the popular girls in our year as well as some of the sluttiest girls but we didn't care what anyone else thought of us. We got to school and made our way to our new form. Luckily we were all in the same room. We walked in and saw that there was 6 seats at the back left so we went and took four of them and waited to see who we would end up sitting with for the whole year. Two boys walked in soon after, I couldn't take my eyes off of one of them he was gorgeous.

"Guess we're sitting here mate" The one with curly hair said to the other. I looked at the girls and they didn't seem too interested in them so I took the chance to introduce ourselves. I might as well know his name I thought.

"Hey, I'm Zoe, this is Linda, Jess and Kirsty" I said pointing the girls out. They smiled at us before introducing themselves.

"I'm Max, this is Lofty. We've just moved to this school" Max said. I was smiling the whole time, he was the best looking guy I've seen in a while.

"If you get lost just ask and I will help you out" I said smiling towards him. The girls were all looking at each other confused at why I was offering to help out the new kids but I wasn't going to give it away that easily. Our form teacher walked in right at that moment and I was still sat next to Max but I had Linda on my other side so it wasn't that obvious.

"Right we're going to go through the year groups so I know what year group you are all in" he said which is when I realised, Max might not even be in my year. For all I know he could be year 7. He looks my age though.

"Right Year elevens stand-up" he said and two girls and three lads stood.

"Year tens stand-up" he said and me, Linda, Jess and Kirsty were the only ones to stand. This means Max is younger than me.

"Year nine's stand" Max and Lofty stood along with three other students and from then I just zoned out until he had finished. With Max being a year younger than me that means I don't even have a chance with him. The girls would flip if I went for someone younger especially as I could have anyone I wanted. I zoned back in when I realised Max was talking to me.

"I didn't realise you were year 10" he said and I just smiled.

"I didn't realise you were year 9" I said back and he laughed slightly. I got up and walked over to the paper tray. I took a piece out and wrote my number on it before ripping it off. I wrote,

07896547659

Zoe xx

I walked back past him and sat down. I noticed that he had his hand under the table so I put mine under the table putting the piece of paper in his hand before bringing my hand back up and getting back into conversation with the girls. The bell went soon after and we stood up for uniform checks. As I stood up Max's eyes were on how short my skirt was. I saw him take his phone out of his pocket and soon enough I had a message, I just left it until we had left though. I walked past him brushing against him slightly before going to lesson and reading his text. 'Dam those legs though x' it said causing me to smirk slightly. 'Shh you x' I text back laughing before putting my phone back into my pocket and getting on with my work. This was definitely going to be a good day.
