I bumped into Harry while turning the corner of the hall. "Oh sorry Livy," he said helping me up as I dusted myself off. "It's okay," I replied trying to walk away as fast as could before I became a tomato. "Wait? Did you just call me Livy?" I asked confused. "Yeah, just like old times, unless you have grown out of it," Harry said getting kind of defensive. "No," I paused, "I like it." I smiled warmly at him and the bell to got to form classes rang. "Well, see you later," I said walking away. "Have you lost your mind?" Harry asked me. "What I'm just going to class." "Have you forgotten that I'm in your form class too?" Harry asked, smiling cheekily. I started turning red with embarrassment. "Oh yeah," I paused, "I've only had form class with you for 6 years." "Haha, yeah so shall we?" We walked down the hall as quick as we could, and still managed to be the first two in the class. I sit in the back left corner and Harry sits in the middle of the room. I took my seat, and watched as Harry took his. He turned around and smiled at me. I half-smiled back as I tried texting Ashley back.

Well I don't think I could embarrass myself anymore.
Ten minutes later she finally replied. Mr. Brooks walked through the door. I really had nothing to worry about though, he never really cared what we did. I pulled my phone back out and finally checked my messages.

To: Olivia
Oh geez, well that's okay I think he liked it.
I smiled big and couldn't help but draw attention to myself. "Olivia, are you alright?" I heard someone asked me. I looked up and said, "What?" "Are you alright?" Mr. Brooks asked me again. "Yes sir?" I said in a questioning voice. "Alright, but can you answer my question?" "Yeah, what is it?" "What is the formul of love, in a sense of how young the person is you can date." Mr. Brooks asked me, knowing I was fond of this formula. "Well Mr. Brooks, the formula is your age halfed or divided by two then add seven," I said feeling proud. Everyone looked at me like I was insane, until I showed an example of the process.
I walked up to the board, and grabbed a piece of purple colored chalk and drew the formula on the board. (x/2)+7=? Then underneath it, I drew my own take of the formula with my age in place of 'x'. So the new formula would look like; (17/2)+7=? I started working on the problem, and my out come was 15.5 which rounded up would be 16. I took my seat, and pulled out my phone again. I had 3 new messages. Before I could check them the bell rang, and I left for my next class. "Olivia!" I heard someone shout. I turned around and saw Zayn running towards me. I waited for him as he caught up. "Hey!" I said pulling him into a side hug. "Hey, what happened to waiting for me?" he asked laughing a little. "Sorry, I completely forgot." "A lot on your mind then Liv?" He asked grabbing my books from my hands and walking with me. "Yeah, just thinking, a little to hard." "is it about," he paused, "well you know." I looked up at him as we both approached our class. 'Sadly, yes." That was the last of that conversation.
We both sit in the back of the room. Ms. Tara, she wasn't as laid back and cool as Mr. Brooks. In fact you ever get caught doing something wrong in her class, and your automatically sent to the principals office. She started to ramble on and on about how Shakespeare created characters and his works. I checked my messages to find another message. I hid my phone under the top of my desk while I unlocked my phone. I had two messages from Ash, one from Louis, and the last from an unknown number. I read the first two from Ashley.

So I guess I'll be in the blue. It's okay girl, I love you too. /3
I replied while chuckling a little. I couldn't help it. "Find something funny, do you Ms. Watson?" Damn she caught me. "No, ma'am it's just Shakespeare's works weren't exactly written that modern ma'am," I replied as nicely as I could. "Oh really then please share between what dates these were written." That's how she punished you, if you get it right it's a warning. If you get it wrong, well then bye. "The dates were called the English Renaissance which is dated 1550 - 1660," I replied going back to what I was doing. Carry on Ms. Watson." I went back to my phone and read Louis' message.

Hey Olivia, I just wanted to know what I should get Brookie for our three month, HELP!
Louis never really knew much about how girls brains worked, but knowing Brookie as long as he's there for her she'll be happy. I replied kind of happy, I knew he cared about her a lot and she deserved him.

To: Louis
Just show up at her doorstep with some flowers and a good movie tonight. She'll love that, because the one thing I know she wants the most is you.
I checked the unknown text thinking it was a wrong number, well more hoping. It wasn't, in fact it scared me to know that I hadn't handed my number out lately and now someone is texting me. It read off;
From: Unknown
To; Olivia
Hey Livy, please meet me in the art room after you stop off at your locker before classes. X
I was freaking out, but I'm also a risk taker so after class, I stopped at my locker put away my books, and grabbed my lunch pass. I walked to the art room. My hands started to shake, and I was getting a little scared, but I opened the door and saw….
