Kat's POV
I walked through the front doors of my new school. This was my fresh start.
"Don't worry, Kat, everything will be fine." Claire reassured me from behind.
I nodded numbly and started to walk in the direction of my first class.
"I'm glad we have nearly all our classes together." I whisper to her.
She nods and smiles at me. As I continue my walk down the busy hallway I have the feeling that I'm being watched and sure enough I am. When I look up I make eye contact with a handsome boy. His shaggy black hair falls into his grey and gold eyes. I quickly break eye contact and blush turning my head away and picking up speed.
I hear an Asian girl say, "Ooooo, does someone have a crush on the new girl?"
My face heats evenmore. As if someone like him would have a crush on me. I quickly brush off the crazy idea.
Then as I pass their group I hear a second voice pipe up, "Of course he doesn't, don't be silly!" she screeched, "besides just look at that hideous scar on her arm!"
I flinched when I heard her say that. Damn it! I knew I should have worn a jacket to cover up my scar but Claire convinced me to leave it at home because it is 85 degrees outside. I glance back at them and once again meet eyes with the boy. He almost looks sorry. He opens his mouth to say something by I turn the corner before I can hear him speak. Im sure he was going to agree with that girl. No one that handsome could ever like someone like me.
Nick's POV
I still couldn't get her out of my head as I walked to my last class of the day. At lunch I had wanted to talk to her but with Amber around I knew that would be impossible and that she would only hurt the girl's feelings even more. I entered my last class, Math, which I completely sucked at. I walked threw the door and my breath caught in my throat. It was her. It was the girl. She was sitting all alone next to the window. I glanced around looking for her friend that was basically her shadow, following her around wherever she went. But she was nowhere to be seen. This is my chance to talk to her.
I approached the desk next to her and asked, "Is this seat taken?"
