Prologue

*Three years ago, in 7th grade*
☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪☪

Chaelie and I walked into our middle school for the first day back, and honestly, I was annoyed to even be at school. You see, school really isn't my thing. A lot of people didn't like me at our school, but I just dealt with it.

We walked to our lockers which were outside on the walls of the quad by the entrance to different hallways for the three different grades.

For September, today was pretty hot and around the 90's so we wore shorts. I wore hollister shorts, matched with a black V neck T'shirt, and the wooden god frame bracelet that I wore everyday. I also wore white Chucks, too. Chaelie wore black high waisted shorts with a maroon shirt tucked in her shorts, paired with black Vans.

I went to my locker unit, which was one unit away from hers. We were hella lucky we both had top lockers this year!  I twisted the dial to my numbers, skipping the last one and turning it al the way.
" 24...14...38. "
I mumbled to myself, as I set my black leather backpack into my locker, pulling out my things and leaving the bag abandoned.

Just as I was walking back to my best friends locker, a boy with braces and blinding brown hair smacked into me, fanning all of my things out on the ground.

" I am so sorry! "
The boy mused, as he frantically tried to pick my things back up in a somewhat organized pile. I knelt beside him as helped pick up my things. I went to grab my purple note book, and our hands brushed ever so slightly enough for us to both notice. He looked into my eyes, and he had the most beautiful deep blue eyes.

" My names Jack, Jack Dail. "
He stammered, holding out a hand awkwardly for me to shake it.

" Skylyn Roberts, everyone calls me Sky, though. "
I took his hand and firmly shook it.

" So, Sky, "
He picked up a sheet of paper with my schedule on it, and pulled out a wrinkled paper out of his pocket, supposedly with his schedule on it.

He searched down the list.
" Looks like we have an English block, Social Studies, and Art together! Rad! "

" Cool, are you new here? "

" Yeah, I just moved from Wisconsin, it's hella different out here. Maybe you could show me around? "

" Sure, I'd love to. "

We stood up, and I made him follow me to Chaelies locker. She looked over at me, and looked back at her locker. She then had to look back again at me, this time looking at Jack with wide eyes. She shut her locker, and pushed up her glasses while walking next to me as I walked next to Jack.

" Jack, this is Chaelie, and Chaelie, this is Jack. "

" Nice to meet you! "
Chaelie smiled.

" Nice to meet you too! "
Jack replied, showing off his braces with a smile.

" We're gonna show jack around for the day, and he's gonna sit at our table, yeah? "
I said to Chaelie, taking the new kid under my wing.

" I can sit with you? Awesome! "
Jack said , actually very excited.

We were talking with Jack as we showed him around the school, he was actually really funny and sweet. He would definitely fit in with all of our friends, I just know it.

I showed Jack where our first hour class was. It was convenient that we both had Social Studies first hour with each other. His locker was rather close to mine, also. I kept catching him look at me through the corner of my eye, as our teacher went over rules and expectations. I felt my iPod buzz, as I checked Chaelie and I's IMessage conversation, using the school wifi to text during class sense we didn't have phones.

Chaels: I can't believe u just bumped into that kid like that!! he's rllly cute :0

Me: hey u have Grayson back up child lol I already called dibs ;)

Chaels: ya but I mean he's still cute it's nice of u to let him sit w/ us. And what about Nash? what happened w/ U guys

Me: he seems like he'd fit in well with our group I mean he's rlly funny and I think we just found a new best friend. and Nash and I needed a break.

Chaels: The period is about to end see u in science ttyl

Me: K bye

* Fast forward to Lunch *

I met Jack at his locker and walked to lunch with him. We went straight to table 8, the last table in the lunch room, and claimed out seats. This was also our groups table last year, too. I always got the end seat, Chaelie got the end seat across from me, Grayson sat next to Chaelie, Nash sat next to me, Ethan sat next to Nash, Matt sat next to Grayson, and Cam sat next to Ethan.
Sounds complicated, right? not really.

Jack sat next to me where Nash usually sits, but sense me and Nash had a fall-out he's sitting by me. Cam wanted to sit next to Jack, sense Cameron is such a fun person and a talker. Him and Jack seemed to be actually pretty good friends by the time Chaelie, Grayson and I went up to the lunch line to get spicy chicken sandwiches.

We got back after we got our food, and I took everyone's money to get Fuzzy Peach drinks for them at the vending machine directly behind our table. I sat back down after handing everyone their drinks as soon as I got them, and began to eat my food.

Chaelie tossed her balled up sandwich wrapper in the trash, as well as me and Grayson tried to toss ours in. Too bad I missed. Grayson then grabbed Chaelie's hand and held it while we were at our table. As we waited for Mr.Bashay to dismiss us from our tables and get back to class, Cameron, Jack, and I made a bet on how many meals a day our dean ate, and she was a pretty big lady.

We got up, and headed back to class. today was an actually great first day back at school, surprisingly.
