(Small time skip to the beginning of school)

Jak's POV

"Hurry up, Jak!" Mom yells.
"I'm coming!" I shout back.
"Your going to be late to the first day of senior year!" She says.
I finally decide on a pair of khakis and a plaid t-shirt. I style my ginger hair as best as I can before tossing on a black SnapBack.
"I'm coming!" I repeat walking down to the kitchen.
"You don't even have time to eat the pancakes I made. Just get out of here. And if I even hear a word saying anything about you I will snap your neck." She says jokingly... I hope.

"JAK!" My best friend, Seth, screams hugging me tightly as soon as I see him.
"Hey, Seth."
"First day of Senior year." He sighs.
My group of friends is pretty big. It includes:
Seth and his girlfriend Trinity who have been dating for 3 years, Dylan, Mitchell, Brooklyn, Maggie, Kat, Matt, and Jenna.

The bell rings cutting my thoughts short.

"Jak, this is the third time already. Please pay attention in my class." Mrs. Taylors, my first period math teacher says.
I'm trying to pay attention but I'm thinking too much.
This is the year I have to decide my entire future.
"Oh! Class, this is our new student, Rocco! Please welcome him to our school nicely." She says pointedly looking at me and Seth.
I look over to see the new kid.
He's short, so adorably tiny, Short-ish brown, almost black hair, brown eyes, and not too tan but not too pale either skin.
He's wearing dark blue jeans, a black hoodie and black running shoes.
He's really hot... I mean he looks okay... Dreamy... I'm not even gay... But he's so beautiful... No!
I'm arguing so much in my head that I don't notice that Rocco has say beside me.
"Hey." He says making me jump before I quickly regain composure.
"Hi. I'm Jak."
"I'm Rocco." He mumbles back.
I watch him tugging his hoodie sleeves farther down over his hands.
The teacher starts talking again so I daze off.

*At lunch*

"Hey, Jak!" Brooklyn says jogging up to the table I'm sitting at.
The table fills up with all my friends and the lunch room is soon filled with chatter and laughter.
Then, Rocco walks into the lunchroom.
He looks around with big sad eyes looking lost and confused.
"Hey! Rocco! Come sit with us!" I call.
Then I realize what I did.
Why would I let the weird new kid come sit with us? I couldn't figure it out. Why is my mind so messed up when it comes to him?
Seth is giving me a really strange look as Rocco walks over and slides into the seat beside me, fiddling with his sleeves.
"Thanks, Jak." He mumbles to me.
"No problem." I whisper back.
Me and Rocco fall silent again and I notice that he hasn't eaten anything for lunch.
"Okay quick heads up. Blond, blue eyes is Seth, brunette, green eyes is Seth's girlfriend, Trinity, Black hair, blue eyes is Matt, Brunette, brown eyes is Dylan, blond hair blue eyes is Brooklyn, brown hair brown eyes is Kat, dirty blond hair, brown eyes is Maggie, and brown hair blue eyes is Jenna." I say quickly pointing everyone out.
"Okay." Is all he says.
"Are you alright? Or are you just always quiet?" Kat says obnoxiously from across the table.
"Stop it." I say kicking her shin under the table. She just rolls her eyes at me then goes back to talking with Matt and Brooklyn.
"Are you actually okay though?" I ask Rocco softly.
"I will be." He says then he gets up and leaves.
I can't help but wonder who Rocco really is.
Why is he so hurt? What's he hiding under his sleeves? Is he okay?
Why is someone so beautiful hurting so much?
Wait scratch that. I swear I'm straight!

Oops. Over 700 words in this chapter. I think it's going okay so far I guess.
I'm just hoping that they don't find this story... Jeez that would be so awkward. Lol.
So yeah. Hopefully I can update this every day.
Byeeeee
