After their lunch break, Liam began rushing to my next class with Greenwood our Chemistry teacher. He is literally a pain to everyone. Thing is, if you're even so much as a nanosecond late he'd give you a detention for the rest of the week.

"Hey, Liam," Mason called out, stopping Liam from his journey to his next class.

"Uh…sorry dude, I gotta get to class." Liam dismissed.

"No, no. Wait." Mason gripped his wrist. Liam sighed. "Your new senior friend Scott told me to tell you he needed to talk to you after school."

"Okay, thanks." Liam smiled then spun around but was immediately stopped yet again by his friend.

"You know. I still need an explanation about all of this?" Mason questioned.

Liam frowned as he adjusted his backpack.

"What do you mean?" Liam asked. Liam did know what he meant by that because that's all Mason's been blabbering about ever since the change.

"Don't spout that gibberish to me Liam! You know what I'm talking about." Mason said. "How you miraculously changed overnight into something…different. And why this town suddenly became so strange."

"Trust me. There's a lot where that came from." Liam chuckled. Mason widened his eyes.

"You see! That's what I'm talking about." He groaned and released an unimpressed chuckle.

Liam thought for a moment. He had a right to know right? He had to watch lots of supernatural actions right before his eyes. The weird effects at the Bonfire, the Berserker incident, everything! But how was he going to explain it to him?

"Okay, look. I'll talk to you later." Liam told him as he backed away. "I promise." He said as he ran away. "I promise!" He called back.

… …

The moment Liam entered his classroom and slowly crept past the teacher –who was grading papers –trying not to get caught, however that plan failed in complete misery.

"Late again Mr. Dunbar," Mr. Greenwood said. Liam sighed in defeat. "That's strike four. One more and you're out!"

What sport was he talking about?

"Yes sir." He replied with slight sarcasm as he took his seat at the back of the class. He set his books on the desk and sat quietly, paging through his notebook filled with superman drawings. Yeah, lame! But he enjoyed that movie a lot.

There air was filled by the smell of orchids and the sound of feet approaching, with inclusive of ringing earring. Liam could also smell nervousness filling the room and it was really unpleasant. He groaned.

"Sorry I'm late. I wasn't too sure which class I was assigned to," a wonderful soft silvery voice ringed into Liam's ears. He looked up to see the most beautiful girl in the world. Another cliché!

"Ah, you must be Ms. Sierra Hastings, the transfer student, uh…just a little tip that this is your first and final warning about late coming." He whispered. Liam tapered his eyes.

"It's great to have you in this school. Seeing by your grades I know you'll be a great asset to the school." Mr. Greenwood welcomed her as he took the sheet she handed him. Liam's eyes furrowed. Sierra Hastings? She was in his Chemistry class?

"I guess I'll need to assign you to a Chemistry partner. Why don't you take a seat over by Leon over there, I'm sure he wouldn't mind." He insisted as he motioned to me. It's Liam by the way! What? No! Of course I mind! I mind 100%! I can't have that!

She followed his gaze to Liam and there was a moment where their eyes met each other. Her beautiful amber eyes stared at his green-blue. He couldn't help but be mesmerized by her beauty. You know when you feel that certain spark of energy you feel when you meet someone, he felt just that.

She smiled sheepishly as she began walking to the desk. She took a seat as she laid her books on the desk. That was when he got to smell her scent properly. It was so beautiful and heavenly. He felt completely drawn to her.

He titled my head to see her staring at me slightly before moving her head away from me and onto her books. God! Liam wanted so badly to hear her voice again.

"Hey," He whispered lowly. She gave me a small smile but didn't answer. Damn it. "So you're new here?" Liam asked rhetorically. Stupid!

She nodded. This didn't just get awkward.

"Okay. You all should know the very little bit you know about Chemistry. But just to get your little brain cells in action. Chemistry is chiefly concerned with atoms and their interactions with other atoms for instants, chemical bonds formed between atoms to create chemical compounds." Greenwood began his lesson. "Chemical reactions usually involve the making or breaking of chemical bonds. So I want you all to use the tubes in front of you and try to separate the polyatomic ions…"

"Um…you should probably go first." Liam insisted as he handed her the tube. She gave me a small smile and she began her reaction. Liam sighed and focused on mine.

Okay. This is the area of expertise that Liam know very little of. Liam sucked at Chemistry with one hell of a passion from day one. Liam just stared at the test tube not knowing what the hell to do next.

"You should probably split the tubes to the opposite direction from the chemical glass." She said moving a lot of glass thingies and test tubes. "Then you've got your chemical reaction phosphate." She said in that wonderful voice of hers. Her eyes met mine soon after, her beautiful amber eyes meeting mine. Her cheeks flushed to a deep pink. "Um…"

"Thanks," Liam said sincerely. She gave him a small awkward smile back before going back to her work. "I'm Liam." He whispered as he extended his hands. She grinned widely.

"Sierra." She replied. Liam loved the name but was infatuated by it even more coming out of her lips. She released almost immediately.

"Time's at the essence people!" Mr. Greenwood exclaimed, clapping his hands together, ushering for them to finish.

"He's scary." Sierra murmured. Liam shook his head.

"Nah, I've met worse. It's probably just the old age," He answered.

She giggled.

He smiled a little at that wonderful sound. It sounded like jingle bells. Okay this cliché talk is getting outta hand.

"I think we have to establish the rules of this class and whoever has an opinion…" Greenwood warned as he stared knocked on their desk with his eyes fixed through his greasy glasses. "Should speak now,"

They nodded and when he left, Liam took it as a chance to continue the convo.

"So I hear you're a transfer from Santa Barbara?" He asked.

"Uh…yeah," She replied. "Glad I got away from there."

"Oh. So you didn't like it there?" Liam asked.

"Well…I wouldn't say that. There were just some bad memories there but..." She paused. "I did like it there because my friends and practically half of my life were there. That was until my mom got a job here." She sighed,

"And so you don't like it here?" Liam asked.

"No…" She replied as she stared down at her paper.

"I'm sorry. It's just…I'm sorry-"

"No. It's okay. I do like it here. It's just a little different transitioning from a different area. It's really hard to make friends you can trust again." She replied. Liam smiled.

"I thought the same thing," He told her. "But it gets better."

"How would you know?" She asked.

"Because…" He trailed off as he thought about how much his new friends cared about him but he still found it hard to trust them…except for Scott.

The dismissal bell echoed around the school and the class began scrumming through their bags and leaving the class.

Liam and Sierra spent the remainder of the day getting to know each other more, and Liam showed her around the school. Liam couldn't care less if everyone was staring at them because all he could focus on was the girl in front of him.

He enjoyed her company and it was also obvious Sierra did too. She was glad she at least made a friend in this experience.

It was Afterschool and Liam and Sierra were strolling out of the school whilst everyone else squirmed out impatiently.

"So we have Chemistry." Liam stated. Sierra smiled.

"You think we have Chemistry?" She questioned as she halted. Liam smiled as he stood in front of her and took a step forward.

"I know we do." He whispered with a crooked grin. She stared up at his beautiful greenish-bluish eyes. Totally unusual yet fascinating!

Liam immediately pulled up a paper and handed it to her.

"We have PE, AP English, Arabic and Math together." He laughed nervously. Sierra nodded and took a step back.

"Right," She replied. "Anyway, it was really great to at least find a friend in this school."

"I'm sure you'll find more. You're a natural get-along-with-kinda buddy!" He said. She laughed.

"For that I'm sure I'll be balling friends." She rolled her eyes. Liam chuckled then sighed as he stood awkwardly and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Hey…uh…is it…uh okay if…you know-uh…uh..." He began nervously. She giggled as she pulled out a pen and paper and scribbled down a little then placed it through his shirt pocket.

"For any homework advice, which I'm pretty sure you'd ask for." She said. He smiled sheepishly and shook his head.

"Nah, I do my homework…" He argued. She raised her eyebrow. "During summer holidays,"

She nodded.

"I figured that."

He smiled a little.

His grin fell when he realized he was about to do a bold move which could probably send him crumbling down to hell.

"I was wondering if you'd like to-" He began but was stopped when a car pulled up the school parking lot and she sighed. They both spun their heads at the Mercedes.

"Who's that?" Liam asked.

Then a man all dressed up in dark padded jeans and sneakers with a buttoned up shirt as he pulled his jacket off.

"My ride…" She replied.

She murmured a goodbye and sauntered over to the young man –probably a college student – and he wrapped his jacket around her shoulders and threw an arm around her shoulder and planted a kiss on his temple as they walked over to the passenger seat and he opened the door for her.

Liam couldn't help the burning of anger flaring up him but he tried to contain it. But his blood was boiling and he was just about ready to shift.

The mysterious young man went back to the driver's side and unfurled the door but flashing a grin showcasing his straight rows of teeth at him then entering the car.

So much for asking for her number…
