Will, you can't do this. Yes you can Will, of course you can. Thoughts were rushing through Will's mind. He'd never been the new guy before. Of course, he'd seen how it made them feel. They settled into eventually thought – but what if he didn't? What if he was a loser? If he was ignored everyday? He exhaled and went up the steps into the new school.
"Don't you be talkin' shit to me dude!" Will saw a boy in a wheelchair being pushed down the stairs by what he thought was a football player. He decided to ignore it, however much it pained him to see the boy being bullied. When he got into the main hallways of the school, he was shocked of how small it was – but he still couldn't find his classes.
"Terr, just shut up about your self for once, okay?" A red-headed girl in a cheerleading exclaimed while walking down the corridor. Will thought she was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. She had red curls that framed her face neatly, pale skin that looked like the color of the moon and a beautiful thin body that was in a Red cheerleading uniform. Her white sneakers squeaked quietly on the floors of the hallway.
"Anyway, I wonder when that new guy is coming." Said a much older girl with brown hair that was cut short above her shoulders. "I really want to meet him."
"Oh Shan, don't get yourself caught up other a guy you haven't even met yet." The blonde one giggled. She looked very pretty, but not in the way the red-headed girl did. Will glanced at his schedule. His first period was at homeroom with Mr Davis. He approached the girls and said:
"Hey, I'm new here, do you know where Room 2c is? I got homeroom in there, but I have no idea where it is." Emma's face lit up.
"Are you Will Schuester?" She smiled.
"Yes, that would be me." He chuckled.
"Hi, I'm Emma Pillsbury. Head Cheerleader." She shook his hand.
"Emma is a very pretty name." He grinned. Emma giggled. Will certainly gave her Goosebumps at his touch. Even if it hadn't gone further than a simple handshake.
"I'm Terri, and this is Shannon." Terri pushed forward shaking Will's hand while blinking her eyes. "We're Emma's friends."
"Stop flirting Terr!" Shannon whispered and nudged her.
"Who's this?" A voice of a male said and the girls swung around to see Carl and Ken.
"Hi!" Emma grinned and kissed Carl on the cheek. "This is Will, he's the new guy in our class."
Will's heart sank at the thought of Carl. He took a look at Carl. He saw his football jersey – he must be on the football team. Of course Will, its one of those typical high school relationships.
"Carl Howell, captain of the football team, and soon to be captain of the basketball team." Carl grinned, showing a winning smile. "Nice to meet you Bro."Will couldn't help but shiver in disgust. Bro? What the hell was that supposed to mean. The bell rang loudly. Emma grabbed Carl's hand much to his disappointment.
"Follow us Will. I'm sure you won't get lost." She grinned and they all started walking down the hallways. Will walked slowly. He felt as if he didn't fit it. He wasn't popular like these guys were.
"Don't worry; Carl is a complete and utter dipshit." Will jumped to see a small, but muscled boy talking to him. "I'm Ken by the way."
"Yeah, I don't like him already. Seems to cocky for me." They walked down the hallway together to their homeroom.
"I don't know why I hang around with him to be honest. It just helps my reputation, I guess." Ken shrugged and they turned round a corner.
"Yeah, I know what you mean." He smiled, agreeing with Ken. "Um, Ken? Who's that girl that keeps watching me?"
"Oh, that's Terri Del Monaco." Ken coughed. "She thinks she's the best. She's been eyeing up Emma's position as head cheerleader for a while now." Will's eyes flashed to Emma. She was laughing at Carl, her eyes lit up, as if it were brightening the whole room. She had the cutest smile that Will had ever seen in his life. He'd never felt this way about a girl before.
"Emma seems – nice..." Will stared at Emma's every movement and listened to her discussion with Carl. From that very conversation, he found out that her favourite colour was cyan, her favourite animal was a puppy, and that how she though Harry Potter was much better than Twilight. Carl gritted his teeth and gave a look to Carl and Will, and made gestures around his head as if to say: "I wish she'd shut up." That angered Will. He didn't deserve someone as lovely as Emma.
"Ugh, how can he say that to Emma? She's the nicest girl I've ever met! He doesn't deserve her!" he said wondering aloud. Ken looked at him in shock.
"You've got your eyes on Pillsbury? Damn Will, you only just got here." Ken shook his head in disapproval.
"Maybe I have. It's not of your business."
"I really want to hook up with Shannon. I mean look at her Will. I'll never be good for her."
"At least she's available." Will smiled weakly. He really didn't want to talk about girls on his first day.

The rest of the day ran smoothly for Will. He looked at his schedule and noticed that he had Spanish next.
"Hi Will!" A voice said happily from behind him. It was Emma.
"You really don't know where Spanish is, do you?" She giggled, which instantly memorised Will.
"I have no idea in the slightest." He admitted. "Who's your teacher? I have someone called... um, Mr Eager."
Her eyes lit up grinning.
"So do I!" she grinned, "Let's go Will!" she grabbed his hand. They went down one of the corridors to see a fight going on between two members of the basketball team.
"Oh my god!" Will was shocked at how no one cared. Everyone was just chanting "Fight!" in the circle.
"Come on, I know a shortcut where we can avoid all of these people." She pulled him along and they ran down the corridor. It was dead. There was no one around at all. The only sound that could be heard was the squeaking of her sneakers on the polished floor. It had felt like they had been running for an eternity. Emma's hands were so soft and small, like silk. Her hair, tied into a ponytail, slowly bounced up and down gracefully.
As they ran together in their own world, Emma looked at Will. She noticed something she had never experienced before. Will had a wonderful smile and was very cute. His hair was brown and curly, and covered in gel. He wore a light blue buttoned up shirt and dark washed jeans – much too glamorous for school. Emma thought the look suited him.
"Emma, you've got to get him out of your head. You're dating Carl Howell – he's any girls dream! What is it with Will?"
And that was when Emma and Will found out that there was such a thing as love at first sight.
