I stepped on the breaks hard of my Honda Civic, I was heading straight for a guy in the middle of the road. I hadn't seen him since I was holding a map of the town. He fell back first and I managed to stop just in time. I immediately got out of my car and went to him

"Oh Shit, Are you okay?" I asked as I stepped out of the car.

The guy scrambled to his feet and gave me a small, reassuring smile. When he stood up, he was tall, about 3 inches taller than my height of 5'10.

"Peachy, sorry about that…." he suddenly looked at me closely. "I'm sorry but I haven't seen you around here in Andover before…. are you new here?"

"Yeah, I just moved in with my brother…" I told him. "My name's Michael."

"Blake. Blake Jenner." He answered, giving me a smile. He was without a doubt, good-looking. He had long chestnut-brown hair and dark brown eyes. He was also lean and I guess, athletic since he was very muscular. I kinda felt weird around him, like he had some sort of appeal that attracted me to him. No. I wasn't gay or bi, but somehow looking at Blake made me think twice.

"Don't mean to be rude but, why on earth were you tying your shoe in the middle of the road? I mean…. " I looked over to the sidewalk and back to him. He followed my gaze and thought for a second. His eyes widened as he understood.

"Crap. I feel so stupid." Blake said, avoiding my eyes. I laughed, he blushed and I found it cute…. What?! I'm finding guys cute now? NO. NO.

"So where you headed?" I asked, hoping we'd coincidentally heading for the same place.

"I'm headed to school, Mr. Michael." he said smiling.

"What school do you go to? and please just call me Michael." I said smiling back at him. I hoped he would be my future schoolmate.

"William's High School" he said proudly. YES!

"No way, that's where I'm headed! I'm transferring schools today" I said giving him a smile.

"Oh really?! That's cool, I can show you around." He said excitedly

"Hey, come ride with me and we can go together"

"Sure." Blake said and I opened the car's door for him. He smiled and got in. I soon followed and as I sat down, I smiled at him apologetically. "Sorry for almost killing you." He smiled in return and I drove on my way to school, with one friend already
