To Catch You - nabrina au

the minute before meeting

NICK

"Morning Nicholas," chirped Prudence from behind me as I grabbed a book from my locker.

"Hey Prue," I responded, turning my back to face her as I closed the door. "What's going on?"

"Apparently there's a new girl transferring to this school today," she explained.

"Really?" I asked. "Do you know her name?"

"No," Prue responded. "I haven't seen her either, I wonder what she looks like. Dorcas is showing her around."

"Wait," I said, raising my eyebrow. "They're letting Dorcas give her a tour?"

Prudence nodded.

"Oh, that poor girl."

"You said it," Prue said, putting her hands in the air. "Not me. Now, come on, the bell's about to ring and we'll be late for class."

I took my seat in Literature and felt all eyes in the room on me, which is a rather familiar feeling.

"Hey Nick," cooed a group of girls walking by my desk.

"Hello ladies," I said as I sat up and flashed a smile their way.

Before they could congregate in front of me, I was rudely interrupted.

"Okay people," Ms. Wardwell groaned. "Settle down. Girls, please take your seats - desperation is not a good look on any of you."

Damn, I can always count on Wardwell to kill my vibe this early in the morning.

"Good morning, class," she said. "I hope you all had a good winter break. This morning, there will be a new student joining us and I hope you will all be on your best behavior and make a good first impression."

As Wardwell droned on about iambic pentameter and poetic devices, I found myself getting distracted and thinking about the most random things.

Well, that was until the door busted open.

"Dorcas?" Ms. Wardwell asked.

"Sorry Ms. Wardwell," said Dorcas, sheepishly. "I kind of got lost and didn't keep track of time on my tour."

"That's okay," Ms. Wardwell assures. "Please take your seat."

Small footsteps followed behind Dorcas. My eyes trailed up her body - from her shoes to her hairline.

Holy shit, she's hot.

Her blonde hair bounced as she moved, her hips swayed in all the right directions with every step. It's like she was putting a spell on me. I couldn't take my eyes off of her.

"Class," Ms. Wardwell said. "This is our new student that will be joining us today. Why don't you introduce yourself to the class?"

"Okay," the girl said.

Oh shit, her voice was so sexy.

"I'm Sabrina. Sabrina Spellman."

"Nice to meet you Sabrina," Ms. Wardwell said. "Why don't you take a seat over there next to Melvin."

As Sabrina walked to her chair, I watched her every move. Something about this girl was really drawing me in.

As class went on, Sabrina eventually noticed me staring at her. Her eyes met mine and I flashed her a small smile. She gave a tiny grin in return, but quickly turned back to pay attention to Ms. Wardwell.

Although I'd only known of her for a few minutes, I knew that there was one thing for sure.

She was going to be mine.

As soon as the bell rang, I got up from my desk and went out of my way to find Sabrina. Seconds later, I found her walking towards a locker and decided from there to go in.

"Hey," I said to her, smiling and lightly touching her arm. "We're in the same English class, I'm Nick."

"I'm Sabrina" she said, lightly brushing me off. "Nice to meet you."

"So," I asked. "What's a pretty girl like you doing here at Baxter High?"

"I just recently moved here from Riverdale," she explained.

"Maybe I can take you out sometime and show you what Greendale's all about," I said, smiling.

"Like, on a date?" She asked.

"Call it what you want baby," I responded.

Sabrina turned up her nose, causing my facial expression to fall and turn to confusion.

"Thanks," she said. "But I have a boyfriend."

I turned around and watched her walk away as I was unable to pick up my jaw from the floor.

Nobody has EVER turned me down before.

Oh Sabrina, challenge only makes the heart grow fonder.
