"Okay class, today we're going to start practising our dance hold and the dip" Mrs jon drones.
That woman is so monotone. i tried asking her if i could change partners but she said that there was no one else available so i should, in her words "suck it up, princess", fantastic.

"Now, boys, place your right hand on your girls hip, and girls place your left hand on your boys shoulder"
This is it.
Ethan places his hand on my hip. He looks.. emotionless? thats weird. i place my hand on his shoulder. err this is so weird.
"Now with your spare hands, join them with your partners, this is your dance hold"
Ethan brings his hand up and joins it with mine.
err, double weird. Shit! he just shocked me.
He must've noticed, because he turned around from looking at the teacher and stared at me. with his.. piercing deep brown eyes  (A/N just roll with it) His eyes stared into my soul, the teacher kept on talking but i didn't hear anything she was saying. suddenly Ethan drops towards the floor and pulls me with him, but he stops half way to the ground and startling me so much that i lost grip of his hands and fell with a thud onto the floor.
I think the teacher was explaining how to do the dip.
The whole class turned and starting giggling and laughing at me. Ethan just stood there with a smirk on his face as if he was congratulating himself.
Great.
I got up and ran out of the room. Bathroom visits today: 1
I knew this was going to happen. Why did he have to join my class? Why was his one soul purpose to ruin my life? I started crying., Yes i know its a bit dramatic, but if you were in my position, wouldn't you do the same?
"Hey, are you okay?" i voice whispered from outside the stall door.
"Im fine" i replied. No one had ever asked if i was fine before.
"Are you sure? because it sounds like you're upset? do you want to talk about it?" The voice said calmly.
"Are you sure you want to be talking to me? for all i know you're a popular bitch who just wants to mess up my life even more? do you even know who i am?" I snapped.
"I've never been popular in my life" The voice whispered
"What?" i croaked.
"You heard me, i've never been that popular, i'm actually new here, will you please come out so we can talk face to face?"
I obliged and slowly creaked open the door. There before me sat the prettiest girl i had ever seen in my life, i couldn't believe she had never been popular. She has the face of an angel!
"Im Ash", she smiled and reached out her hand.
I took it and we both stood up.
"I'm Kylie" i said with a weak smile.
Ding Ding Ding
There goes the bell for lunch.
"Now why don't we go eat lunch together and you can tell me why you're upset" Ash smiled and put her arm around my shoulder as we walked out of the bathroom.

"So Ethan is the person who has been bullying you for the past year, you're really smart but you have no friends, am i missing anything?"ash recites. Yeah she's missing the fact that I'm an orphan, but she doesn't need to know that. yet.
"Nope" i say with a grin
"Well lucky for you, you know have a friend!" Ash laughs
"What! who is she?" i ask, trying to play dumb
"ME you idiot" she says with a laugh.
We continue to laugh and tell each other stuff. Man it's nice to have a friend
"let's play 20 questions!" Ash suggests.
"Okay!, you go first" i urge
"Alright.. what is your favourite things to do?" - A (for the purpose of my laziness, A is Ash and K is Kylie)
"I like to dance and paint, i feel like they just relax your mind and you just feel free and calm" - K "Where did you move from?"
"Actually i've lived in Sydney my entire life and only moved schools because my last one didn't... um.. suit my needs" -A
"Oh okay, well i hope you like it here!" -K
"I already am! now that i've met you!" -A
Did someone just say they liked something because i was a part of it? i must be dreaming! but i don't ever want to wake up!
"Umm, what;s your favourite song?" -A
"I really like 'Hey there Delilah'; and hmmm, oh! i love ours by Taylor swift" -K
"OMG i LOVEEEEEEE Taylor swift!" -A
"OMG we should totally go to her concert at the end of the year!" -K
"OHMYGOSH YESSSSSS" -A
I found my soulmate.
"Okay, last question, Do you have a crush on anyone?" Ash says with a smirk.
"Huh? umm no i don't think so anyway." i Mumble.
"Ahah riiiiight" She smiles. We laugh and skip off to class as the bell goes.
The rest of the day goes by quite smoothly with only three more unnecessary trips to the bathroom.Thankfully Ash was right there to comfort me.
Wow, one day and i already feel like i've known her forever. she's so nice and caring. huh i don't really deserve someone like her. she should be hanging out with the popular girls. that's where she belongs. she doesn't belong with me. she deserves better.
Better than the pathetic loser i am.
