Chapter 1:

YEAR 2022:

'What are you doing here Taylor?' I asked, 'I thought you live in LA?'

'I moved back to New York last year and I was recently fired from my job so I decided to look for another job in any company. I just happen to stumble upon you.' He explained. I gave him a sympathetic smile. 'What are you doing here?'

'I just finished my work at the office.'

'On a New Year Eve before the midnight?' He stated.

'Yeah, when you're the boss you kind of have to do that.' I blushed. Damn him! Even now after 10 years he makes me blush! Ugh! His eyes widened and his sexy jaw dropped. I looked at the ground suddenly finding the floor very interesting.

'Oh my dear god, just like you said! You became a CEO!'

'Do you want a coffee? I know this really great coffee shop that sells the best coffee ever.' I asked, changing the subject, 'And maybe we could talk about the job, if you're still interested?' He smiled, took my hand and linked it around his.

'Where to miss…' I chuckled and we set off.

YEAR 2012:

The party ended at like two am in the freaking morning and I only slept for four hours! I woke up around quarter to seven. You know the butterfly feeling when you are really excited for something? Those fussy ones, that make you smile for like no apparent reason and you look like some restarted happy seal? Well I got mine today.

Today is the first day and since I am a freaking nerd (all AP classes) I am not really excited for that. Hell no! I am going to be bullied all over again. I am excited for one reason: Taylor. Call me cheesy but I thought that we had a connection at the library. I flirted with him for goodness sake! To me that was like major.

Anyway I went to my build in bathroom. My bathroom was small. I didn't complain. I really didn't mind as long as I don't see them. I don't care. I went to the sink to have my usual routine: wash my face, brush my teeth and then my hair, go to the bathroom and then wash my hands.

I went to my wardrobe that was located to my left of my bed. I opened it and took out my usual look. Skinny jeans and a stripped purple and pink button-up top, I really loved that top. I collected my black bag and went straight for school, ignoring my breakfast and family.

I walked to school. I don't have a car, although I am sixteen and I am capable of driving my parents' only care about my older sister Kristina while le me is always left behind. I finally saw the only place I couldn't avoid. The place where cool rule and losers drool: High school.

Once I placed my feet at the school property I no longer stayed safe. I walked to the main hallway to find my locker. Once I founded it I opened it. I put my bag inside it and closed it. There weren't many students here but there were enough to gossip and whisper about me. I ignored them. Just one more year, that's all there, is left. A year. I really enjoyed learning. I never really knew why? I just think I am adopted or something.

While I was busy thinking about the possibility of being adopted to my family, I bumped into someone hard. I was prepared to fall on my butt and have the student laugh about me when really strong and warm hands wrapped their way around my waist. I looked up and saw Taylor smiling at me. I blushed again.

'So s-sorry, I wasn't looking.' I mumbled quietly. He just chuckled and let me go. He looked at me again.

'Well, aren't I lucky you bumped into me, sexy dancer?' He asked.

'Sexy dancer? Really that's what came to your mind when you saw me?' I mentally slapped myself. Why did you say that? Are you stupid! He laughed. I stood there stunned and gave him are-you-crazy look. He laughed even harder. He seemed to understand me so he answered.

'I am not crazy,' He laughed some more. 'Well I really don't know what to call you since you didn't say your name and since I saw you dance so sexy last night I just couldn't resist.' He said. I blushed again. Stupid hormones! I hate being a teenager! In the corner of my eyes I saw Kristina.

'Shit.' I cursed. He laughed and between his breaths he managed to say 'Wow, you cursed! Feisty I like that.' I glared at him and I managed to say 'Stay away from me Taylor.' Before my sister saw me I escaped safely and with my heart still in my body.

I smiled to myself thinking that I made my crush laugh. I went to the main office to get my schedule for my class.
