Mike's POV.
I was in the middle of walking towards my friends across the school when I see a girl half a metre away from me that was falling off of her board, my first instinct was to catch the falling redhead, so I quickly grabbed her by the waist and caught her. I no hived she had her eyes closed shut tight. As her hated landed on my chance I just stopped and stared at her for a moment, I had never seen this girl before, bit she looked gorgeous and so different. She had bright red hair, her skin was fairly light, her nose was pierced, as well as her belly as I scanned her. She eventually opened her eyes and froze for a few more seconds, once she opened them though our eyes met, she had the most beautiful emerald green eyes I had ever seen, our of all honestly I was captivated by her looks. Her face was going red by this point. Once she realised what was happening she seemed to get up as fast as possible, I couldn't help but to grin at this. Once she had her full balance she quickly stuttered out, "Oh, I- I- Uh, I'm sorry." She had gone even redder by this point. I kind of felt bad from the embarrassment she was clearly feeling.
"It's fine. Really. It was a pleasure catching you." I laughed slightly and gave her a wink, attempting at trying to make things a whole lot less awkward for the poor girl, but all that this comment made her do was go even redder. I didn't vent think that was possible. It was kind of cute though.
"Um, thank you..." She thanked me awkwardly.
"Are you okay?" I questioned her, not taking the grin off of my face.
"Well, yes. But I wouldn't have been if you weren't there to catch me." Once she had said that comment her facial expression changed to a shocked expression. "I mean- Fuck. I'm sorry." She seemed to say with a sigh and face palmed herself.
"It's okay, you don't need to be sorry." I commented while scratching my head in a confused way.
"Once again, thank you, but I better go." She said as she reached down, grabbed her board and began to walk away. Fuck. I never got her name. Before she managed to get too far away I yelled out, "Wait!"
By this she had turned around with a confused and questioning look on her face.
"I'm Mike. Mike Montgomery." I introduced myself.
"Oh, I'm Lillian, Lillian Lopez. But call me Lilly." She replied with a somehow satisfied look on her face and turned around and continued walking away.
"I'll see you around!" I shouted out behind her.
She just turned around and gave me a smile. It was cute. So Lillian Lopez, the new girl. I hope I do see her around. I thought with a big, dopey grin on my face.
Lily's POV.
By now it's lunchtime I only just finished my art class and that was a drag. I walk into the cafeteria and look around. Unfortunately the only friend I have made so far is that Mike kid that I bumped up into this morning. Just a I thought, the stereotypical groups were together again and unfortunately I have no idea where I fit in. I continue looking around when my eyes land on the group from my first class and once again the tall, brunette is looking at me, but looks away when she noticed that I had seen her. This is about the sixth time I've caught her doing this today and I'm starting to get curious why. I begin to make my way over towards her and the other four girls. The closer I get the more awkward I feel. What am I even going to say to her? 'Why have you been staring at me all day?', 'What's your problem?', 'Take a picture, it might last longer.' This seems to be a disaster in the making but by now it's too late to turn back, I'm only a few metres away from the table and they're all looking at me, except for the particular female that has been so intrigued by me all day. The short, brunette was smiley at me, the tall, thin, pale brunette also had a smile on her face, the blonde had her eyebrows raised in curiosity, not completely sure if she was judging me or not, but who cares?
"Hello, my name's Lilly, Lilly Lopez but I can't help but to notice that you keep looking at me, and I'm getting a little curious of why this might be." I smiled trying to sound polite.
The tanned brunette still had her head turned.
"Hey, I'm Aria, this is Spencer," The short brunette pointed at the tall, slim brunette that smiled at me and nodded when Aria introduced her, "This is Hanna," she pointed to the blonde who responded with, "I'm pretty sure I am capable of introducing myself. I'm Hanna." The blonde half smiled.
"Whatever, Hanna." Aria laughed in a friendly way, "And this... Is Emily." She pointed her head towards the tall, tanned brunette with a smile. By now Emily had turned around and had half smiled at me, I could see the awkwardness on her face.
"So I never got the answer to that question?" I smiled and looked towards Emily.
"Oh, right. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. You just look so different from everybody else and I don't mean that in a bad way." She smiled but then frowned, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make that sound so rude." She continued to have a frown on her. The other three girls let out a giggle but I kept my attention on Emily.
"It's fine, I'm sure you didn't mean to make it sound like that." I confirmed with a reassuring smile.
"Are you sure?" She questioned with a half smile.
"100% sure. It's all cool." I continued to smile.
"Would you like to sit with us?" Spencer offered, smiling.
"Sure, thank you. If I hadn't of sat here I would probably be sitting on a toilet eating my lunch or something." I joked and Aria, Spencer and Emily managed to laugh at my joke but Hanna still seemed unsure of me, eh, nothing new. At least now I have some people to talk to.
I took a seat in between Emily, who was on the left of me and Spencer who was on the right to me. On the opposite side of the table was Aria, across from Spencer and Hanna across from Emily. Directly in front of me was just and empty chair.
"So where did you come from?" Aria questioned politely, attempting at starting a conversation.
"I'm from New Jersey, the Garden State." I answered.
"So you're a Jersey girl?" Hanna asked with a smirk.
"Sort of. Well, I wasn't born there. I was born here, in Rosewood." I responded with a satisfied look. In return the four girls looked at me with a stunned look on their faces.
"I'm surprised we've never heard of you before. When did you leave Rosewood?" Emily questioned further on.
"I left Rosewood when I was eight." I once again answered.
"Why'd you leave?" Hanna quickly replied.
"Hanna!" The three other girls scolded her in unison.
"What?" Hanna out her hands in front of her in confusion.
"You don't just ask someone that you just met something like that, it could be really personal." Spencer implied with a know-it-all look on her face.
"Ah. It's cool. My mother passed away when I was eight." I answered trying to sound as confident as possible even though it killed me to say it.
"Oh... Sorry..." Hanna apologised with a sympathetic look on her face.
"It's fine, you didn't know." I reassured her.
"See Hanna, that's why you don't ask such personal questions, Spencer scolded her once again with a part sympathetic and part I-told-you-so face.
