A/N: I'm sorry if this chapter isn't so good. I'm not very good at Reyna's POV. Anyways, Happy Easter! Please Favorite and Review!

Reyna lost count of how many hairstyles that she had tried, and then decided that it sucked. She spent a half an hour getting ready, nearly doubling her usual time. This happened because of her hair, make up, and outfit picking. All of this happened because of Jason Grace. Reyna almost swooned at the sound of his name. Yep, even his name seemed perfect to her. She looked in the mirror on the wall, and decided that her appearance was acceptable. She never did this, getting all dolled up for something as simple as school, but for Jason she made an exception.

She ran downstairs, quickly greeting her mother and quickly downing an orange juice. She was late, after all. Dressing up for Jason had taken up all her spare time.

She lightly jogged to the bus stop, but abruptly stopped. She forgot her backpack!

She sprinted back home, grabbed her backpack and sprinted to the bus stop. Too late. The bus was already heading to Goode high. She growled in frustration. Reyna Ramírez-Arellano had never been late.
The wind slapped her hair against her cheek, messing it up. Well, there goes looking good for Jason. She was still around five blocks away when she heard a voice.

"Reyna?"

She stopped and turned around. "Valdez?" She asked in disbelief. "Late again?" Leo grinned. "You're one to talk." His eyes widened. "Wait a second...are you wearing makeup?" Reyna rolled her eyes. "Yes, stupid. Now if you'll excuse me, I would like to not be late on the second day of school." She sped up, hoping to lose Leo, but he adjusted his pace as well so he was running alongside her.

Reyna tried running faster, but he'd just add more bounce to his gait and he'd catch up again. He was taller than her, she was 5'7, and he was 6'1, so, naturally, he didn't have to put as much effort in this 'race.' They reached the school campus on time. Reyna, who almost never smiled, was on the verge of laughing until her sides hurt when she saw Leo's victory dance.

He pumped his fists in the air, his curls bouncing. He did a kind of skip/dance, while whirling around in a circle. The expression on his face was so silly it made Reyna feel like a little girl again. She wanted so badly to laugh and join him. But, instead, she cleared her throat and pointed to the busy locker area. He stopped suddenly and nodded. Reyna's mouth twitched, ready to tell him to dance again.

High school locker rooms are not the best places in the world; Reyna learned this Freshman year. It smelled like a mix of body odor and perfume/cologne. She had to maneuver her way through the dozens of the students to get to her locker. She grabbed her textbooks and walked to her first period.

Luckily for her, she had the same schedule as Jason,(except third period) so she sat with him during Life Science. She took next to no notes because she was a bit too occupied staring at his beautiful blue eyes. After a half an hour of just thinking about him, he handed her a piece of paper. "Here," he whispered, "I made you a copy of the notes." Kind, handsome, amazing, perfect. Those were the words Reyna would describe him with. After thanking him profusely, she returned to her work. She was disciplined after all.

She sat with her best friends during lunch. Reyna was a popular girl, so she sat with Gwen, Dakota, Frank, Octavian, and Hazel. They chatted aimlessly until Reyna heard Octavian talk about the boy she ran to school with.

"He's such a loser. He's so weird and awkward." Reyna glared at him, her heart beating faster. She didn't know why she was acting like this. Octavian was her friend. "Maybe you should shut your gossiping mouth," she said sternly. Octavian glanced at Leo across the lunch forum. "Why is Jason sitting with him?" "Maybe they're friends?" Reyna said like it was obvious. And it was. Jason and Leo were talking like they knew each other for years. But she felt a pang of jealousy when she saw the new girl Piper sit with them.

"Well," Octavian said, "Looks like he finally has friends. That's a first."

Octavian left the lunch room with a slap mark across his cheek.
oOo
The day sped by pretty quickly. Fifth period came around, and Reyna cursed under her breath. She hated woodshop, it was the one thing she didn't excel at.

Mr. Beckendorf explained the group project in the beginning of class. Each pair was given an amount of wood and nails, and were instructed to build a bird house. Their partner, much to Reyna's dismay, was the person they sat next to the day before.

Leo grinned as he sat next to her. He leaned back on his chair. "Do not worry, mi reina, I know my way around building things." Reyna scowled at him. "Are you insinuating that you will do all the work?" Leo tilted his head to the side, making him look like a confused puppy. His expression faded quickly though, and soon his huge grin was back. "No, mi reina, that's not what I'm...suggesting." Reyna lifted her chin a bit. "Good. Now teach me how to build a bird house."

They spent the next 20 minutes building the main structure, and between Reyna's creativity and Leo's skill, their bird house was the best in the class. Reyna began to paint it a sky blue, and used a big brush dipped in white paint to create clouds. Mr. Beckendorf praised them incessantly, and rewarded them with an A.

Reyna's mouth opened before she could close it. "Dance, Leo," she ordered. Leo happily complied, grinning that silly grin of his. He whirled around in a circle and Reyna joined by shaking her hips a little. They were so wrapped up in each others playfulness they didn't even notice the whole class staring.
oOo
"Movie night!" Reyna's mother, Bellona, exclaimed. Reyna shrugged, not particularly excited. Her mother insisted on the two of them watching a movie together every Wednesday, for 'mother-daughter' time. She shoved a popcorn bag into the microwave and settled onto the couch next to Bellona. She whipped out a movie- Grease- and popped it into the DVD player. (I've only seen Grease once, so if I get some facts wrong, I'm sorry!)

They watched silently, occasionally munching on popcorn, until the movie reached Summer Lovin'. Bellona turned towards her daughter. "What about you, Reyna? You have any interests?" She wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. Reyna shook her head. "Not really. The guy I like likes someone else." Bellona nodded. "That's tough. Well, remember what I always say, if he doesn't seem to think you're worth his time, he is definitely not worth yours." Reyna smiled. "Thanks mom." They turned back to the movie, watching the young versions of John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
