Oh and in case you didn't know, Nathaniel and Gwen's thoughts are in this :)
Gwen POV
I walked down the hall once more. Nathaniel was so nice, trying to find my forms for me.
"Look girls, it's another new loser!" A blonde girl pointed at me. I was annoyed but at the moment i was concerned about the new kid.
"Who's the new kid? I thought I was the only one." I said.
"Some scrawny nerd with brown hair and glasses. Said he was Kentin Dougless."
"D-Dougless?" She couldn't be serious, Ken was here?!
"Bye, loser!" She walked off, her cronies following close behind. I rolled my eyes, bullies could be dealt with later.
"Gwen?" I heard a squeaky tone behind me. I turned around, and there Ken was!
"Ken! I can't believe your here!" I hugged the boy and he hugged me back.
"Well, I really wanted to be with you!" Ken said, his voice cracking on the last word.
"You are so sweet, Kenny! Well, I have to get this stuff from enrollment so I'll see you!" I gently kissed him on the cheek and burnt bright red.
"B-bye, Gwen." I walked off in search of the dollar was lunch and I could leave campus.
After I got the money and photo I.D. I went out to lunch. I figured Ken would like to make some new friends at lunch in school. I went to a burger place thats was close enough to the high school. I got in line and was just about to order when I heard Nathaniel behind me.
"So, what are you doing here, Gwen?" He spoke. I jumped.
"Oh, Nathaniel!" I turned around, "What are you doing here?"
"I asked you first!" Nathaniel smiled.
"Well I thought I would eat out today."
"Same here!"
"Excuse me, miss. I'm sorry, but are you going to order?" The cashier looked impatient
"Oh, no! I'm sorry! I'll have a large fry and that's it." I went to pull out my money when Nathaniel said
"No, I'll pay."
"Oh, Nathaniel, I couldn't possibly let you pay." I said.
"It's okay, we're friends, right?" He flashed yet another one of his perfect smiles.
"Well... ah, okay. But next time, I'm paying!" I told him.
"Haha, sure. Pick a table and we'll have lunch together!" He pointed to the eating section.
I picked a table in the back so we could talk without shouting, I hated loud places.
"Hey." Nathaniel came back without our food.
"Um, Nathaniel-"
"Wow, you picked a great spot, I hate loud places."
"Nathniel-"
"So, what have you been doing? Oh wait, I know! You were getting your stuff right?"
"Nath-" This time it wasn't Nathaniel who interupted me.
"Nathaniel Parker, NATHANIEL PARKER, You have left your food here. I REPEAT Nathaniel Parker you have left your food here." An announcer on the intercom turned bright red and stood up to get the food. He came back, holding a tray.
"I'm, I'm s-so sorry." Nathaniel was still red.
"It's okay Nathaniel! I was trying to tell you though." I giggled a bit.
"Well, now thats settled, lets talk!"
Me and Nathaniel talked a lot and before I knew it we had to go back. But I didn't want to go, I wanted to keep talking with was so nice, and though he might seem dull he was actually quite interesting. Nathaniel checked the time and said,
"Whoa, it's time to go already? I lost track of time!" It sounded like he was little dissapointed.
"Yeah, well thanks Nathaniel for treating me to lunch!" I was about to go when Nathaniel grabbed my shoulder.
"Wait! Um well, I-... er... I um. How about I- I mean we walk to s-school together?" Nathaniel stammered a bit. I guess he was still a little shaken up from the intecom incident.
"Sure!"
So Nathaniel and I walked back to school together. We talked again and I found myself laughing my head off as we entered the school.
"T-thanks, Gwen. I had a n-nice time."
"Me too, Nathaniel. See you later."
"Oh yeah, you can get the enrollment stuff to me afterschool."
"Okay!"
I went to my classes, Ken was in my history and spanish classes. Nathaniel was in my math and science ones. That red haired jerk was in the rest of them. I can't STAND him.
"Hey, Gwen!" Ken hugged me from behind.
"Kenny! Hey!" I smiled at him.
"So, wanna go somewhere?"
"Yeah- wait! I have turn in the enrollment forms to Nathaniel!"
"Okay we can go after that right?"
"Sure!"
I walk with Ken to the student council room, when I walk in Nathaniel's working on paperwork.
He looks up "Oh, Hey Gwe-" He spots Ken. "Who's that?"
"Oh, Nathaniel meet Ken. Nathaniel, Ken's my boyfriend."
Nathaniel's POV
"B-boyfriend?" I stuttered. How could she have a boyfriend? I mean I don't understand. I dig my nails into the desk.
"Hi, Nathaniel, I'm Ken."
"Hello...Kentin." I say through gritted teeth. I can tell he knows I don't like him. He knows.
"Nathaniel? Are you okay? You seem tense." Gwen's soft voice draws me away from Kentin. She looks at me with concern.
"Oh, yeah, I'm just working a bit too hard. I guess." I say, running my fingers through my hair.
"Don't work your self so hard. You don't want to get sick do you?" She puts a hand on my head. It sends jolts of electicity down my spine when she touches me.
"You're good, for now. Take it easy though." She smiles.
"Oh, I found your form!" I hold it up.
"You're too kind, Nathaniel. You really have done so much." She hands me her stuff. "I have to go now, but I'll see you later." She takes Ken's hand and leaves the room. I try to work on my paperwork but my thoughts keep floating over to Gwen. She really was too good for Ken. How did that happen? She deserves better than Ken. Like... like me. I decided then, I would prove to her that I was better. Watch out, Ken.
I won't give up.
"I'm here." Castiel's grouchy voice instantly made my mood worse. "I need you to sign this." I said, handing him a note.
"What if I don't want to?" I knew he was teasing me, but I wasn't in the mood.
"JUST SIGN THE DANG NOTE,CASTIEL! I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOU BEING SUCH A JERK FOR GOD'S SAKES!" I yelled at him, not caring about my voice.
"Wow, you're in bad mood today, Princess." (A/N Castiel calls Nathaniel 'Princess')
"Just sign the note please." I sat back down, sighing.
For once, Castiel signs the note. "It's Gwen, isn't it?" He says leaning against the wall.
"How do you know her name?" I didn't need to compete with Castiel.
"Haha, so it is! Don't worry Princess, I'm not putting the moves on your girl."
"She's not my girl...yet."
"I know, I saw her with that dork, Ken."
"She's his 'girlfriend'"
"Tell you what, you suck at flirting. So I'll help you."
"You will? Why?" Castiel never helps me ever, I'm kinda suspicious.
"Because as long as your moping around, I won't be able to enjoy making you mad, Princess!"
"Thank you, Castiel." I wrap my arms around him and hug him.
"GET THE HECK OFF ME WEIRDO!"
