Rick had no idea what he was doing. He was only 14. He'd just started taking interest in girls and had no idea what love was. He'd just met this girl. Yet he was halfway through his chemistry class and all he had to show for it was a half complete vocabulary list. Everything else was all Kate. He found his self constantly looking down at it to make sure it didn't disappear. His thoughts were clouded with her hazel eyes, the way she spoke, the cute eye rolls she gave him. Rick suddenly scared himself when he looked down and saw a giant doodle of he and Kate's name mashed together with a bunch of little hearts around it the little note at the bottom read: Kate Beckett + Rick Rodgers= awesome. He couldn't for the life of him figure out why he'd wrote that, but he didn't mind the sound of it.

His mind wandered back to her as he reminded himself how lucky he was. 1. He'd met her and got her number. 2. He had both of his morning classes with her and best of all 3. The seats in both of those classes were directly behind her. He could sit for two whole classes and stare at her. He was in the middle of doing just that when a note shot across his line of vision. He looked around, but no one gave tell they'd sent it. He finally decided to read the note and couldn't help the smile that came when he saw it.

If you wouldn't mind not staring at me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Right then Rick lost control of his emotions. He sent back a reply he was sure would get him a look from her. He needed to see those hazel eyes again. He watched as Kate read the note to herself. She threw him a look of shock and slight embarrassment as she mulled over his words in her mind.

Why? Scared you'll like it?

He chuckled at her look, he didn't mean to, but he did. Rick caught sight of his chemistry teacher heading towards him and hid the note he and Kate had been passing, not so much for him, but for her. He also hadn't noticed that he forgot to put away the doodle he'd made earlier, but before he could grasp it, she snatched the piece of paper and tore it out of his grasp.

"Now class, we have a lesson to teach . We do not pass notes in this class." Rick shamefully bowed his head. Trouble on the first day? Nice one Rodgers. He reprimanded his self as she continued,

"And as we all now, the consequence for note passing is having your little note shared with the class."

Rick's eyes shot up and so did all his other classmates, but not for the reason he did. No she couldn't, she wouldn't he was silently praying. She opened the note and stared at it, but uttered no sound, much to the dismay of the other students around him. She glanced out to the expectant looks of her students and then slid the down and made her way to Rick.

Rick, who was slumped so far down in his seat couldn't see anything, was startled by a tap on his shoulder. He slightly slid up to meet the awaiting face of his teacher. HE now noticed that she hadn't read the note or drawing rather.

"Now , your new here so I won't embarrass you today." he heard many of his classmates' disappointed groans "but know this, next time, I won't be so merciful. This isn't art class and uh" she stepped a little closer so only he could here her "let's try and focus on something other than Miss Beckett this year huh?" and with that she walked back to the front and continued her lesson, leaving an awe-shocked Rick in her wake. He grasped the note that she'd conveniently left on his desk and looked up fully. This time he was might by the curious gaze of those hazel eyes he had come to grow fond of. Before he could make something up (since there was no way he was going to tell her what was on the note) the bell rang. Saved by the bell once again. He avoided her glare as he dashed by her, unconsciously dropping the doodle.

Kate's curiosity got the best of her and she bent to over while trying to discreetly grab the note. Her eyes widened and her face flushed as she stared at the drawing on the paper. She had no words to describe how she felt, but she knew one thing. She needed to speak to Rick.


Alright then, I need a little help. I still want to know if I should include the rest of the crew, plus should i get them together this early on (since that's pretty much how it happens in middle school anyway) or should I wait a bit? Plus any other ideas you might have. R&R :)
