Macy's POV

I walked through the main doors of Monroe High school, my home away from home. I actually like it here. I'm on the soccer team and spend as much time here as possible. It's better than going home. My parents are always away on business trips. They say they love me but I think I'm just a burden. I was an accident. They weren't ready to have a child. I have basically grown up raising myself. I spend half my time at school and the other half at the Lucas'. I love them; they are my family, more so than my mom and dad.

"Okay everyone, welcome to Monroe High." I told them. I was their tour guide for the day, which I had no problem with. "Hand me your schedules." I told them. They all handed me their schedules. I read over all of them and a huge smile spread over my face. "Joe and Julie, we have all of the same classes." I said, and I saw and Joe and Julies faces light up. "And Nick, your classes are fairly close to ours so I can show you where all of them are. And we all have the same lunch."

"It's okay Macy," Nick said. "I can find my classes."

"Are you sure Nick?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. You guys go ahead."

"Um, Okay. Come on Joe and Julie, let's go." I told them, as we walked away.

Nicks POV:

As I watched the group walk away, I slowly walked over to a blonde girl standing by her locker. She looked to be my age and as I was talking to Macy, I noticed her staring at me. I was pretty used to cute girls staring at me but for some reason this girl was different. I had to send the others away because they would make it hard for me to talk to her.

"Hey, I'm Nick." I told her as I finally reached her locker.

"Eilie." (AN: It's pronounced like I-Lee) She replied, looking me in the eyes. She had really pretty blue eyes, and a perfect body. Her blonde hair fell in loose curls about halfway down her back and she was about an inch shorter than me. She wore a blue baby doll top, dark wash skinny jeans, and blue converse.

"Nice to meet you. Are you a sophomore?"

"Yes." She replied.

"Awesome. Would you mind showing me around?" I asked her.

"Actually, I have to go." She quickly mumbled before running down the hall.

That was weird, I thought to myself, as I walked down the hall to my first class. Biology with Mr. Lehman. I made it into the classroom just as the bell rang. There was only one seat left and it was next to Eilie.

I walked over to the seat and asked if I could sit down.

"Yeah" she quietly mumbled. Throughout the whole class, I tried making conversation with her, but she would just ignore me. It was starting to get on my nerves, so I decided to ask her what was going on. Right as I got the guts to ask her, the bell rang and she sprinted out the door. I sighed but walked to my next class. Gym. I walked in to the gym and saw that the bleachers were divided into four sections. One section for each teacher. I found my section and sat down next to a guy with short brown hair. He was sitting next to a blonde kid and they were rather big. Not like, fat big, but muscular, football player, big. They both glared at me as I sat down. That weird, I thought. Oh well, I may as well try to be nice.

"Hi, I'm Nick," I told them as I stuck my hand out to shake. They stared at it, then looked up at me and glared.

"I'm Adam," the brunette said through clenched teeth. "And this is Tyler," He said, pointing to the blonde. They both glared at me one more time before going back to their conversation. Before I had a chance to say anything else, the gym teacher blew his whistle.

"Okay, everyone go change into your gym uniforms and then come back out here!" He yelled.

I ran into the guy's locker room and found my locker. Locker 257. I opened it and threw off my clothes, changing into my ugly gym suit in about two minutes. I ran back out to the gym and took a seat back in the bleachers.

"Okay, everyone outside, now, and go to the track. You are all going to run one mile." The gym teacher yelled. There were a few groans from the girls and some grunts from the guys but everyone reluctantly got up and we went to the track.

As I was walking down there with everyone else, I suddenly tripped over something, sending me flying to the ground. I closed my eyes as I rolled down a rocky hill. I could feel my ribs hurting more and more with every roll but I couldn't stop. After what seemed like hours, I finally stopped rolling, and laid there groaning. I opened my eyes and looked back to the top of the hill where everyone was standing staring at me. Everyone looked concerned except for two people. Adam and Tyler. It seemed like hours before the teachers came down to help me. I assured them I was fine because I didn't want to cause an even bigger scene. I stood up and limped to the top of the hill, my ribs and head burning with every single step. The teachers let me go to the clinic to lie down. As I made my way into the building, I looked back one more time at the group of students huddled together staring at me. I could clearly see Eilie standing there with tears in her eyes. That's strange. I also saw Adam and Tyler look at me, laugh, and then high five each other.
