Chapter 2

Lauren's POV

   As I got up early in the morning, I was really tired and wanted to stay at home but I remembered that it was the first day of university. So I got up, checked my Twitter and Instagram, got my bags, and I went down to the dining table to eat breakfast. After I finished washing the dishes, I went to my closet and dug for some clothes. Since it was the first day, I took a little effort to dress up today. I found a plaid jacket with some denim on the sleeves and a white shirt that says "Carry On" ,some denim jeans from Forever 21 and my favorite shoes which is my black Vans. As I got out of my room, I saw my sisters and my mom, so I said goodbye to them. "Bye Laur! Have a great day at school sweetie." My mom said as she smiled at me. I got my keys and drove of to the university.
*at the school*
   Before I left the car I took a breath and said some positive affirmations to myself to keep my mood up. After that I went inside the school and saw many people. I am not a type of person that would immediately start a conversation and I don't have many friends at all. So this was very new to me. I had a slight panic attack in my head. Then I heard the bell ring so I got to the first class. My first period was Chemistry. The teacher assigned us where to sit so I sat at the third row on the chair in the corner. There was one vacant seat on my right. I'm assuming nobody wants to sit with me. But when the teacher heard a knock, she opened the door and I heard a voice say, "Umm... sorry about that Miss Miller, I didn't know what class I was on" the guy said to our teacher. "Mr. Smith go to your seat, there's no time for excuses!" Miss Miller replied. "Go sit beside Ms. Cimorelli over there." She said as he pointed to the seat beside me. "Miss Miller! Grayson should sit here not there." A girl said while she raised her hand. "No Ms. Anders, Grayson should sit where I told him to." Miss Miller said as she stared at him. Was he a popular kid? Maybe he is. Why did other people caught his attention. So after asking myself a lot of questions he walked up to me and sat beside me. "Hi, I'm Grayson, Grayson Smith and you are?" He said as he shook my hand. And woah, he is handsome.He had electric blue eyes and perfect brown hair. He was wearing ripped jeans and a red flannel. "I'm Lauren, Lauren Cimorelli. Nice to meet you." I said with a smile. "Lauren's a nice name!" He said as I chuckled. "Thanks! You seem cool." I replied. He smiled at me with no reply. "Okay class, now get your textbooks and turn to page 3." The professor said.
*after Chemistry class*
   As I was walking to the hallway to get to my locker, I bumped into a girl. "Sorry" i said as I was looking at the girl's face. There was a bunch of people with her so I couldn't see her that well. As soon as she was standing  up, I saw her face. It was the popular girl. Oh no. "Watch where you're going dweeb!" She said as she snapped her fingers at me. "Oh hey, it's the new girl. Okay first of all, back off, second, Grayson's mine. So stay away! Oh and by the way, I'm Angela, nobody messes with me." She said as she rolled her eyes. "Wait, what are you talking about? I don't even like him!" I spoke up. "That's the point, you should never like him. And he never will."She said with an evil laugh. Her friends walked away and dropped my textbooks on the floor. So I went to my locker and spotted Grayson. I saw him waving his hand at me. So I waved back. "Oh hey! I know we only met but, how are you?" He said with a smile on his face. "I'm fine. Just had an encounter with your popular girlfriend over there." I said with an annoyed tone. "Wait what? Who? Girlfriend?" He said with a confused face. "That Angela girl. I bumped into her accidentally and said that you were her boyfriend." I replied. "Woah. She is not my girlfriend okay? I don't have one." He said as he chuckled. As we were talking more, the bell rang. "What's your next class?" I asked him. "Physics." He answered. "O my gosh, same!" I said as he laughed. "C'mon, we're gonna be late!" He said as he shoved some things in his locker.
*at Physics class*
   "So class, I need you to get a partner, because we are going to have a project. The deadline is on Friday." The professor said. Oh frick. I don't even know these people. Grayson is the only one I know, but for sure he is going to be with the popular people. "Grayson! Grayson! You can be my partner if you want to." I herd Angela trying to get his .
attention. "Umm... sorry girls I already have a partner." He said as he was staring at me. "Then who?" Angela's friends asked. "Lauren is going to be my partner." He said while he winked at me. I was blushing, trying to hide my smile. "Me? N-no you s-should be going w-with them." I said nervously. "No Laur, besides you don't know many people around here so you can come with me." He replied as he chuckled. "You will have a presentation on Friday." The professor spoke up. The professor dismissed us and then it was lunch time. I don't expect people to sit beside me today, since I'm new here. I was like this in my old school. So I went to the cafeteria and got my food. I had a burger, some orange juice and an apple. As I exited the cafeteria, I saw Grayson putting some of his things in his locker with his friend. "Lauren, why are you going out of the cafeteria? He said curiously. "I'm gonna eat somewhere alone." I said as he laughed. "Hey, why are you laughing?" I said with the sound of annoyance. "Hmm... how about we talk about what we are going to do for our project?" He replied. "That sounds great! Where you wanna go? How about Sonic? You in?" I asked him. "Heck yea! I'm always down for Sonic, Colton, wanna come?" He said as he asked his friend. "No dude, I'm good bro. By the way I'm Colton, Colton Gilbert." He said as he introduced himself to me. "Nice to meet you!" I said as he high-fived me. "Let's go!" Grayson said excitingly as I nodded.
*driving to Sonic*
   Grayson's POV
Today is just great. I met a really cute girl named Lauren. She's new here but I think we'll get along well. We are going to Sonic today to discuss about some things for our project. "What do you want Laur?" I asked. "I think I'll just have some burger and fries and a chocolate milkshake." She said as she was looking at the cashier. "I'll have the same too please" I said. "Okay sir that would be $16.75" the girl said. "Here, keep the change" i said as I handed it to the cashier. Our order came and we started to talk about some random facts about each other. "Did I ever tell you this but, I'm in a girl band with my sisters. It's called Cimorelli." She said as she smiled at me. I know their band. I used to watch them when I was young. "Ohh yeahhh, I know that. That's why your last name sounds familiar. I used to watch your guy's video. I can't believe you have grown so much!" I said as she laughed at me. "I'm actually also interested in music and photography!" I said. "That's so cool. What instruments do you play?" She asked me. "I play the acoustic guitar, piano, drums, electric guitar and ukulele." I replied. "Oh wow, you must be very great in singing too!" She said. "I don't know about that" I said with a chuckle. After talking a lot we finished out meal and said our goodbyes to each other. We exchanged numbers and left Sonic. It was worth spending time with her.
