2. First Glances

My mom's car stopped outside of the magical school called Memorial High school. I smiled and nodded at her, telling her goodbye, and jumping out of the car. I walked up the stairs, and into the incredible school known as Memorial.

I quickly found my new locker, and did the combination. I opened it up, and found an empty locker. I smiled, and opened my bag. I put my favorite stuffed animal in there. A cute, small, pink bunny. What? It means a lot to me.

My smiled slightly faltered. Jacob had won the bunny for me on our very first date. I shook my head, smiling at the memory. Back then, everything was so innocent and sweet. And I was in love.

But sadly, Jacob proved to me that there's no such thing as love. Not this type of love anyways. Same goes for Kimberly. Hell, she never loved me ever. She only wanted Jacob.

I sighed and reached into my bag and pulled out a tiny mirror. I hung it in the back of my locker. I smiled. Just for the fun of it, I took a bunch of stickers and put it all around the inside of my locker. I am such a dork. Especially since they were Power Ranger stickers. Amazed by my weirdness? I didn't think so.

Some few hours later, I had books from different classes. On my way back to my locker for the last time today, I tripped and fell. Aren't I graceful?

"Ow…" I groaned to myself.

I got on my knees and began to pick up a book. Then I saw another hand reach down and pick it up. I looked up at the person who had picked up my book. It was a boy.

"This book happen to be your's?" He smirked at me.

I rolled my eyes playfully. "No, it's your's."

He chuckled and bent down to help me get the rest of my books. You know how when a girl reaches for a book she dropped, and a guy does that same thing and their hands touch? It's corny as hell. But that's what happened between the two of us. The weird thing was, it felt good.

"Thanks for picking up my books." I flashed him a smile.

He nodded and smiled back. "Anytime. Hey, what's your name?"

"Not until you tell me your's." I looked into his eyes. "What's your's?"

Oh. My. God. He has these warm, gorgeous pair of deep chocolate brown eyes. With amber and caramel specks. Those eyes made me melt inside.

"Bond. James Bond." He pretended to hold up a gun and hid behind the lockers.

I laughed and smiled at his impersonation. Beautiful eyes, and funny? Wow. I think this is an angel.

"But seriously, my name is Craig." He flashed a smile that met his eyes.

His eyes lit up when he smiled. It was kind of adorable. And Craig is an adorable name too.

"My name's Rebecca." I smiled back at him.

"Rebecca. What a beautiful name." He looked into my eyes.

Jeesh, way to make a girl completely die and go to Heaven. Seriously.

"You know, you have pretty eyes." Craig smiled softly. "You're quite beautiful."

My heart skipped a beat. "That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. Thanks. Your eyes are amazing too. You're hot yourself."

He smiled again, but more in a confident way. I realized that the end of the day bell was about to ring. I waved at him, and walked towards my locker. He followed me, but started to walk out the doors of Memorial.

After I had gotten my bag, I walked out the doors also. Then as I was walking towards my mom's car, a Ferrari pulled up beside me. Inside was Craig.

I smiled. "See you around."

"Yes you will." He smirked and drove off.

I then realized that I was holding my breath. So I let it out and breathed in. My heart was exhilarating with beats. I smiled to myself. Craig took my breath away.

I began to open the passenger door on my mom's car. I hopped inside and I looked at my mom. Her eyes were red and puffy. She looked at me with sorrow.

"Your father died this morning." She mouthed to me.

That's when my entire world went numb.
