A/N: Sooo, I see you guys really liked this story, AND I'm a little late on the update so here's the next chap. It is kinda short though, so I'll try to make the next one longer! Please review and enjoy!

Jo POV

"Ohhhhhh! They're so pretty! How did they get those colors?" Camille asked me examining the chemicals in our test tubes as we were in chemistry. I really hate this class. Huh. I found another thing I hate at this school. Besides Kendall Knight. Luckily he wasn't in this class.

I was busy writing down observations in my notebook. The test tubes held two colors. One was hot pink, the other a very bright green. Two of Cam's favorite colors. So don't even ask me where she got the idea when she asked me, "Do you think if I mixed these two together they'd make a purple?"

I rolled my eyes. I thought she was smarter than this? I guess she just get's distracted. "I don't know Cam." I replied still writing in my notebook. My first day I've only had like 3 classes and I have tons of homework.

"Let's find out!" she said excitedly. I looked up curious as to what she meant. But before I could stop her she was pouring the two chemicals together.

"No Cam don't!"

BOOM!

Just then the bell rang signaling us that class was over. Camille and I practically ran out trying not to be seen in the giant puff of smoke that filled the air. I'm glad that's over with.

"That was sooo much fun! And now the good times continue!" she said excitedly. I looked at her confused.

"It's lunch you weirdo." She said as if my unspoken question was the most ludicrous thing she'd ever heard.

Oh boy. Lunch. The one part of the day I'd been dreading. I mean where do I sit? What should I eat? I think Camille could sense my nervousness and laid a comforting hand on my shoulder.

"Don't worry. You'll be fine. I'll be right here with ya." She coached as we walked through large double doors into a large room that was obviously the cafeteria. We then grabbed our lunch trays and got in line to buy lunch.

"AND, you'll have Stephanie and the guys by your side too." She said with a smile. I smiled back. We grabbed our salads and paid. Hey, you gotta eat healthy right? We then stopped and looked around for a place to sit.

My eyes then landed on an unoccupied table held by Stephanie who was waving at us. Camille must have noticed her too, and we were soon walking towards her empty table. I took a seat next to her with Camille on my other side.

"Hey guys, how was chem.?" She asked us before taking a bite of her sandwich.

I gave Camille a knowing look. She just smiled confidently. "Well-" she had started but Stephanie cut her off.

"You blew up the lab again didn't you?" she asked raising an eyebrow. Camille then looked away shyly.

"Maybe.." she said quietly.

"Again?" I asked smirking. We then all burst out laughing. We were soon joined by Logan and Carlos. Logan on Camille's other side and Carlos on Stephanie's other side. The girl's faces seemed to brighten when they got there. I'd talk to them about that later.

I noticed we were just missing James. But when I looked across from me, I saw two empty chairs. That's just an extra right? I felt my stomach tighten at the thought of a stranger coming. I mean maybe they weren't a stranger to my friends but to me it could be anyone. I just looked down and began eating my salad nervously.

I then heard the screeching of chairs moving against the floor. I looked up and smiled that it was only James. But my smile soon faded as soon as I saw who walked up behind him. Kendall Knight. And of course the only seat available for Kendall is the one right across from me. Great I have to stare at the person whom annoys me to heck for thirty minutes.

His expressionless face turned into a frown when we locked eyes. We quickly looked away and he sat in his seat with a thud. I just turned my head away in disgust, him doing the same. Everyone stared back and forth at us feeling the tension in the air. So they started a normal conversation.

Camille then looked at both of us and said "Ok, I know Kendall is usually quiet, but not this quiet. And I thought you would be more chatty Jo. You sure were in class." I rolled my eyes. I can't talk when Kendall's here. He seems to make everything worse.

"Well, I don't really know what to talk about." I said looking down shyly. I then heard Kendall scoff.

"Yeah. It's not like she needs to talk anyways." He said scowling at me. I did the same to him. Everyone looked back and forth between us. Witnessing our intense stare down.

Finally James broke the silence. "So Jo, why don't you tell us a little more about yourself?" I turned my head in his direction and let my face soften in a smile.

"Well, I'm from North Carolina, I'm very athletic, I love to sing, oh! And I hate judgmental people." I said sending a glare towards Kendall. But he just scoffed. Causing everyone but me to give him a questioning glance.

"BORING! Can we please find something more interesting to talk about?" Everyone just sat there with surprised looks my glare became harder. He returned the favor. Soon we were having another intense stare down.

Our table was then filled with silence. Only the occasional crunching of food or clinking of silverware could be heard. Our friends were too afraid to say anything. Afraid they would set off a ticking time bomb.

I stabbed my salad angrily as I glared at Kendall. Him returning the favor. I had to show him I was not going to back down. I'm not some scared little girl. So I narrowed my eyes and shot my best glare as I stared hatefully into those selfish, inconsiderate, jerky….warm, deep, gorgeous green eyes….

WHAT! NO NO NO NO NO! STOP IT JO! WHAT AM I THINKING? I yelled at myself as my eyes widened and I snapped my head away. Kendall seemed to do the exact same. Weird

I silently let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I then looked own at my food. Calm down Jo. It was nothing. Just your crazy imagination talking. There is nothing nice or relatively kind about those eyes or him.

I looked up and saw that Kendall was smirking at me. Probably happy he won our little stare down. I just scowled and began eating my salad again.

"Soooooo…..you guys ready for the Trig. Test on Friday?" Logan asked breaking the silence.

"Finally! Something more interesting to talk about!" Kendall exclaimed. Oh. That's it!

"Well at least I tried to make conversation!" I exclaimed. Everyone seemed taken aback. Except for Kendall.

"Well at least when I talk, it's not about something deathly boring!" he retorted.

"Well at least I'm not a big jerk to every new kid that comes here!"

"Well at least I'm not an annoying, boring new girl!"

My face quickly turned from surprised to furious. We both stood at our ends of the table glaring at each other so hard you'd think our gaze could kill. Our friends looked to terrified to even take a breath, they were to afraid of setting us off again.

We then simultaneously groaned at each other and walked in our separate directions. I was seething with anger.

What a jerk. I am so not annoying. He needs to grow up and learn to be less of a jerk. I wanted to scold my imagination for playing those tricks on me about his eyes. That was a huge mistake. God!

Kendall Knight was getting on my last nerve.

Kendall POV

Ugh! She….she is just…..she's just so… Ugh! She is so annoying. I don't get what everyone is going crazy about over her.

I mean what's the big deal? She's just another annoying loud mouthed new kid. Like I was. But she is so much worse. I can't stand her!

I mean just because she has that long blonde hair, big smile, those hyper, annoying, stupid…..big, warm, beautiful brown eyes…

WHAT? NO! GET AHOLD OF YOURSELF KENDALL! I scolded myself. I mean, she's just another new kid. There is nothing pretty or cool about her or her eyes.

I have to admit though, she's got some spunk standing up to me. But that just makes her all the more annoying. I am not going to let her get to me.

Jo Taylor is Getting on my last nerve.

The question my mind is reeling though…

Am I really falling for her?

No way.
