Kirsten was in history class. The most boring class in the whole world. She tried to pay attention to what the teacher was saying, but she just could concentrate enough. She thought he was talking about Christopher Columbus or some else important person in the history.

Then suddenly the guy who was sitting in front of her turned around.

"Do you have a pencil I can borrow?" he asked her. She just stared at him for a few seconds. When she didn't answer right away, he took it as a no and started to turn to the next person.

"No, wait. Here you go." Kirsten said and handed him the pencil she was holding. He took it and said "Thanks" before turning back in his seat to take some notes. Now Kirsten definitely couldn't concentrate. She kept staring at the guy in front of her. He was…so cute.

"Ms Nichol? Ms Nichol!" she looked up at the sound of the teacher calling her name.

"Yes?" she was awkwardly aware of the other classmates' looks at her. Some of them were smiling. Even the guy she'd been admiring had turned to look at her.

"I asked you a question, Ms Nichol" the teacher said. Ugh, did he have to call her that so much? It reminded her so much of her father.

"Can you please repeat it? I wasn't paying attention" she said, trying to sound confident.

"I could see that. That's why I asked you if you knew when Christopher Columbus discovered America." He said.

"Ehm…1538?" she guessed. The other kids laughed. The guy in front of her raised his hand.

"Yes, Mr Cohen?" the teacher said, turning his attention to Sandy.

"1492." He said.

"I see you've been paying attention, Mr Cohen. Good job everyone. See you next time." The teacher said and everyone quickly gathered their stuff and left the classroom. Kirsten hurried out as quickly as possible, she didn't want the teacher the catch her. Too late.

"Ms Nichol!"

'Damn it!' she thought before walking back into the classroom.

"So, what do you have to say for yourself?" he asked. She didn't know what excuse she could use this time. Before she could open her mouth she heard a voice saying "I had to borrow her pencil, so she couldn't take any notes. It was totally my fault."

She recognized that voice; it was the same voice that had answered '1492'. She spun around, there he was, Mr Cohen.

"Oh, well, I'll let you both go this time. But if something like this happens again, Ms Nichol, I'll call your dad."

The teacher turned around to fix with some papers, so Sandy and Kirsten left the room.

Outside in the hallway, she stopped.

"Thanks for helping me out in there" she said. He smiled at her.

"No Thank You for letting me borrow your pencil. Here you go by the way." He said and handed her the pencil.

"You know, keep it if you want. I got enough pencils in my dorm. I'm Kirsten." She blushed.

"Thanks. I always seem to lose my pencils. It's a mystery, actually. I never lose stuff, just those very necessary pencils. I'm Sandy" he said and smiled shyly. He had done it again. Whenever he met a beautiful girl he had to start rambling and ruin everything, luckily this time the girl didn't look at him as if he was a psycho, no she actually smiled at him.

They stood there looking at each other for a while, and then he said "I have to go meet some friends. Will I see you tomorrow in history?"

"Yeah, of course! See you." Kirsten said and he smiled and walked away. She stood looking after him until he disappeared in the crowded hallway. For once she was actually looking forward to history class…

The next morning she was really excited about seeing Sandy again, but unfortunately history class was far away, it was their last class this Friday. She sighed as she looked at herself in the mirror. Suddenly her roommate, Claire, burst into the bathroom.

"Hey sweetie. Wow, you look nice. Oh God, have you met a new guy?" Claire said, looking excitedly at her friend. Kirsten blushed, was she that obvious?

"Oh my God, what's his name?" Claire grabbed Kirsten's shoulders. Kirsten didn't really want to talk about it, she didn't even know the guy, maybe he would turn out to be a total jerk, maybe he would turn out to be the most amazing person she'd ever meet…

"Don't you have any place to be?" Kirsten said annoyed and shook off her friend.

"Ok, sorry Kiki" Claire said, slightly disappointed.

"Don't call me Kiki!" Kirsten said as she grabbed her bag and walked out of the dorm to find her way to her class. At lunchtime she was sitting alone in the cafeteria, she was disappointed, no sign of Sandy anywhere. Maybe it had just been a dream, maybe he didn't exist.

'Come on Kirsten! Of course he exists. I don't have that good imagination' she thought. Then she saw him. Her heart almost skipped a beat. Then she suddenly realized she had fallen for a guy she knew absolutely nothing about. She watched him take a lunch tray and looked around

for a place to sit. She was about to raise her hand and wave to him, but she suddenly froze in the move. He probably didn't even remember her, so she put her arm back on the table.

Sandy was looking around in the cafeteria for a place to sit. He had been looking all day for Kirsten, the beautiful girl he had met the day before. He searched the table for an empty chair, and then he saw her sitting at a table by herself, looking completely lonely. He smiled and started to walk towards her, when a bunch of teenage girls suddenly showed up and joined Kirsten at the table.

Kirsten noticed that Sandy was on his way to her table, she got Goosebumps when she saw him coming closer….Then suddenly her friends came and sat down at her table.

"Hi Kirsten. Oh my God you look amazing!" one of the girls said and the others agreed, and started talking about everything from skirts to the school disco that would be held that night.

Kirsten saw Sandy's disappointed face when he turned around and sat down at a table where his own friends were sitting. She caught his eyes and gave him a sad look, before she turned to Claire who had just said something that got her attention.

"Did you guys know Kirsten got a new guy?" Claire said and smiled at Kirsten.

"Oh my God Kirsten, who is it?" a girl named Sarah asked. Kirsten shot an angry glare at Claire.

"I do not have a new guy!" Kirsten defended herself.

"She's into Sandy Cohen, right Kirsty?" Sophia said. Kirsten quickly looked at her. 'How the hell could she know that?'

"I saw the way you looked at him in history class yesterday" Sophia said in a teasing voice. Kirsten stood up.

"I - -I have to get to class" she said and quickly walked off with her lunch tray.

"Oh God, she's so into him" she heard Sarah say as she left.

When Kirsten walked past Sandy's table he looked up at her and smiled, she didn't return the smile.

"Sandy? Are you listening to me or are you too preoccupied with smiling at pretty girls?" Sandy's friend Paul Glass said. Sandy quickly paid attention to Paul and the other guys again.

At last, history class. Kirsten was taking the same seat as yesterday, hoping Sandy would too. Then one of those blonde, popular water polo playing guys came and sat down in front of Kirsten. She sighed and looked around, Sandy wasn't even there. The teacher began the lesson, and then the door opened and Sandy stumbled in, ten minutes late. He threw himself down into the first empty chair he saw, a chair that happened to be on the other side of the room from Kirsten. Half an hour later the blonde water polo player turned around and asked Kirsten if he could borrow her pencil, she said no. She felt like she'd better take notes this time. At the end of the lesson, Kirsten had been able to answer five questions correctly.

Kirsten packed her stuff and thought that history could be pretty interesting. When she got out to the hallway she thought she'd wait for Sandy, she didn't exactly know why, she just wanted to talk to him, so she looked at a poster saying that there was a party in the school gym that night.

"Are you gonna go?" she heard a voice behind her say. She turned around and saw Sandy.

"Oh, I don't know" she answered, her friends had already tried to convince her.

"Well, you better make up your mind, because it's tonight" he teased. She smiled at him.

"Well, are you gonna go?" she asked him. He nodded "Yeah, so will I see you there or not?" he was so hoping she would say that they would see each other, but it was her choice.

"See you later then!" she said with a big smile. He smiled his pretty smile and said "Bye" before walking away. Kirsten walk in the other direction, she had to get back to her dorm, take a shower and more importantly, figure out what to wear!
