"Hi, I'm Gerard", he said shyly.
I just stood there, my mouth wide open.
"Aren't you gonna say something?" Alexandra asked me.
"Oh. Hi", I said.
"This is Frank", Alexandra said introducing me. She looked up at me. "Err… Um… It's nice to meet you Gerard", I said awkwardly.
He smiled politely. I looked down. My knees were just about to crumble.
"Alexandra, I need to tell you something", Jess said. "In private!"
"I'll let you too get to know each other a bit better", Alexandra said leaving Gerard and I alone.
I didn't know what to say. I couldn't even look at him, let alone talk to him. I felt he was growing impatient, waiting for me to say something. In the end, I guessed I'd better try and make conversation.
"So, why'd you move?" I asked, hoping he wouldn't be offended in anyway.
"It's a long story", he said, obviously not wanting to talk about it.
I could feel it growing tenser as the minutes went by.
"What do you have first?" I asked still looking at the ground.
"Science in room 208", he said.
My stomach dropped. He was in my class. He would have to sit next to me. What would I do? What would I say? I began to sweat.
"Hey are you alright?" he asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I have science too. You're in my class", I said forcing a smile to my lips.
I began to feel sick when suddenly the bell rang.
"Better get to class", I said. "Come to my locker and then we can go together".
We walked to my locker which was located near the Science room.
"I don't have a locker yet", Gerard said.
"You can have the one underneath me. It's free", I said.
This day was just getting better and better. I wondered what other classes we shared together.
As we were walking to science I noticed that I was continuously staring at him. His dark brown, almost black hair caressed his beautiful hazel eyes and his lopsided smile completed his utterly stunning face. His beautiful body, all dressed in black was even more satisfying.
No frank, look away. I told myself. I had only just met Gerard. I couldn't just suddenly start crushing on him. What about Oliver? Was I just going to ditch him for this guy that I've only just met?
So many of these thoughts were making their way around my brain that I didn't see where I was going and blankly walked into a pole.
Blood exploded from my mouth and nose and I could feel myself fall to the ground.
"Frank! Frank! Are you okay?" I heard Gerard yelling.
Suddenly the pain hit. "FUUUUUUCK!" I screamed.
I heard Gerard run off. I didn't even know where he had gone. Was he just ditching me, thinking he might get into some sort of trouble? I opened my eyes and suddenly felt very dizzy. I was falling more and more into unconsciousness when I heard a faint cry. It was Gerard and he was back with the nurse. Their murmurs grew more faint until I could hear them no more.
