Karter:
I had left lunch early to talk to the principle about my first day so i was early to science. The thought of austin kept creeping into my head, i tried to shove it out but it wouldn't leave. He seems so different at school then on the headlines. He seemed so real now. What was happening to me? I know the truth about him, he's a stuck up star that a lot of girls would kill to even talk to. How pathetic it all seemed. Kids began to fill into the class and i was happy when i saw Mary walk in. But it didn't take me long to notice Ben walking in next to her. I put my head on the desk. Great. If Ben even mentions being her lab partner ill have to find someone else. Mary sat down next to me with the biggest smile on her face.
"Hello" she said cheerfully
I faked a smile and tried to act excited, "Was that Ben?"
"Yes! Can you believe it he talked to me."
The teacher walked into the room with the brightest smile, happy to announce that we would be choosing our lab partners for the rest of the year today. I put my head down and waited for instructions, the rules were simple, choose who you will work best with. I would work best with Mary but she was to love struck to care. All at once everyone stood up and Mary looked down at me.
"Well get up and be my partner," she laughed. I was so relieved. But that didn't last long.
"Wanna be my partner Mary?" Ben said from behind me. Mary gave me a worried replied,
"Of course." Great was all i could think. I turned to walk away from Ben and Mary when I heard someone say my name.
"Hey Karter," i heard from behind me, I turned around to see him, " Hey, my names Austin I was wondering if you'd be my partner since Mary and Ben are partners?"
There was so many reasons why i wanted to say no, but as i looked around everyone else seemed to have a partner. So i smiled and said,
"okay, everyone else seems to be taken."
