-(Cody's POV)-
I was late. Awww, hell! I thought. What weirdo will I have to sit next to?
When I walked in the class, the teacher glared at me, but told me to go take a seat next to someone named Katelyn.
"Ooookkkk…." I said, wondering who the heck Katelyn was.
The teacher, Mrs. Giordano, sighed, then said, "Katelyn, please raise your hand."
A hand slowly rose. It was her! I could tell she was just as shocked as I was. I went to take the seat to the right of Katelyn, with her watching me the whole time. When I looked over at her, she was still staring, but looked quickly away and flushed a bright pink.
I also stared ahead as Mrs. Giordano started calling role, but I knew that Katelyn was staring at me out of the corner of her eye. I finally turned my head towards her. Our gazes locked.
She's beautiful, I thought. She has hazel eyes that look more blue than that small hint of green in them. She has hair that's a dark brown and gorgeous cherry colored lips.
We were still staring at each other when Mrs. Giordano said, "Katelyn Haven?"
Katelyn hadn't said anything yet. I widened my eyes and motioned towards the teacher thinking, Say here!
"Katelyn Haven."
Katelyn shook her head and looked towards Mrs. Giordano and said "Here." She wouldn't look at me.
"Cody….Nahtepa? Did I say that right?"
"Ahe…. Yes, ma'am," I said. Katelyn looked at me again, but only for a second.
When Mrs. Giordano was finished taking role, she started to pass out a syllabus for the class. "All right, you guys," she said, "here are the syllabus's. Now, just for today, I am going to allow everyone to visit for the whole period. That doesn't mean any shouting or horse playing. I'd like you all to get to know each other a little so that you are more comfortable for the rest of the semester. Sooo…go on. But! Just don't get too loud."
Almost everyone started chatting excitedly. I turned towards Katelyn. She almost looked a little frightened by me. I gave a small friendly smile and said, softly, "So…. Katelyn Haven."
