*Three Years Before* May's POV:
"I'm scared" I told my mother, entering the big building.
"You'll be alright, now stop whining and let go of my arm" she had said to me, opening the doors to my brand new high school I was going to attend.
I had recently just moved from Tallahassee, Florida to Austin, Texas. Now you may be wondering why I have moved, that was because my dad had gotten a promotion at his job and they sent him here.
It was the middle of the school year and I didn't know anyone, which is why I am so afraid to be enrolled in a new school half way through.
We entered the building and I took a seat outside of the main office while my mother went to talk to the principal in private. While I was sitting there, I couldn't help but notice this guy, staring at me from across the hall. He was rather tall looking and his hair was black and quiffed up. He looked to be my age and was by the looks of it, a very happy guy.
He caught me catching him stare at me so he looked away, and in a matter of moments, he looked back, smiling. I couldn't help but smile back at his contagious smile and before I knew it he was walking this way. I had stared to feel so many emotions for so many unknown reasons, I was happy, scared, confused, shy, and thrilled at the same time.
I sat up straight and tried to look presentable, or at least some what presentable. He looked down at me and then took a seat to my left. His eyes were this indescribable brown that had a hint of hazel and specks of black. They were so magnificent I couldn't help but gaze into them.
"I haven't seen you around" he said, snapping me out of my gaze, his voice was so deep and really attractive.
"I just moved here from Florida"
"Well Florida must have been sad to lose a pretty little lady like you" he said looking at me smiling this big, adorable smile showing his bright white teeth. I couldn't help but blush. "I'm Car, short for Carter"
"I'm May, that's short for May"
"Your pretty funny May," he said letting out a loud laugh, "Well since your new why don't I show you around"
"Um I don't know-"
"Thats an excellent idea!" I was cut off by a female voice. I turned around to see a lady in a suit, principal I assumed. "Would you mind to do that Carter?"
"Not at all" he said. "Let's go" I reached out and held his hand and we wondered off to the side of the hall where he was staring at me.
"Don't tell anyone" he said in a whisper tone, "But I have a crush on the new girl."
I looked up at him as he looked down at me, he could tell I was blushing at him. He looked up the hallway and started showing me the rooms to our left and right. All my fears of this school drifted away very quickly when I met him and don't tell anyone but, I think I like this Carter guy too.
