Chapter Two: Andrew Press
The years went by and no one reported a missing baby. Margaret was overjoyed with her new child and watched Sam grow up from an infant to a teenager. Although Sam was very smart, curious and clever, he never had any friends, for he didn't know how to treat his friends. That was until Andrew Press came to town.
"Sam, can you please tell me the answer to problem number four?" Ms. Laberto, the math teacher asked Sam. Sam was one of her least favorite, although he was extremely bright. He always started at her with his ice cold eyes, as if he knew something she didn't.
"The answer is the square root of 341." Sam answered confidently. Sam was a tall boy with shoulder length brown hair, big glass, and had a massive amount of acne on his face. He then looked over to Donna Transcore, a girl he had been having a massive crush on for four years, who just giggled at him. Why must all the girls laugh at him? He was the brightest student in the class and one of the best looking, he thought smugly, all though in reality he wasn't the best looking at all. He saw Donna looking over at James Paterson, and Sam sighed. Why did Donna like James, he wasn't special at all!
All of a sudden a tap at the door was heard and Ms. Laberto answered it. Out stepped a boy with short blond hair, brown eyes, and a muscular body. All the girls started whispering at the new student. "Class, allow me to introduce you to our new student, Mr. Andrew Press. Andrew comes from England and has just moved here recently. Andrew, allow me to introduce you to the eighth grade class."
"Hi everyone." Andrew said but it seemed like he was talking directly to Sam. Andrew walked over to the empty desk next to Sam. "Hello, are you Sam Dane?" He asked.
Sam was shocked. Why would anyone so interesting and exciting want to talk to him? "H-H-I, nice to meet you."
"Hi. I have heard so much about you, being super smart and all. Don't you live on number sixteen Samuel Street?" Sam nodded. "Well I guess I am your new neighbor. I live in number fourteen."
Throughout the day, Andrew was strangely fascinated with Sam Dane. He and Sam shared the same interests, and both loved building model boats and planes. Still, something felt strange to Sam. Almost too perfect.
