Elizabeth's pov Last night was such a mess that when I got home I had tried all night to put it out my mind, but nothing seemed to work, leading me to have no sleep and walking into school feeling tired and probably looking gross. As I walked in my eyes instantly went roaming for him, I still didn't know his name and I told myself I didn't want to, however secretly I did. While I was deep in my own thoughts I wasn't looking were I was going and before I knew it I had bumped into someone making the both of us drop our books every where. We both instinctively said, "Oh damn it" We then looked at each other and laughed. I was looking at the most blonde haired boy I have ever seen, it was pulled up in a cute little man bun and his eyes were an electric blue just like mine. I soon realised I was starring at him and I instantly blushed dropping down to quickly pick up my books. As I did so the boy opposite me did the same, as attractive as he was I couldn't help compare him to my mystery mate. To get the thoughts out my head I started conversation "I'm so sorry I just got here and I'm already making a mess" He chuckled and said, "Its fine" as we started to stand up he held out his hand "My name is Alex" At first I was a bit unsure what he was doing then I realised and I felt so dumb and replied "My name is Elizabeth" I took his hand and shook it. We both smiled, I had come to school early today so he showed me around, we also found out we have most classes together. While we walked to our first class he asked me if I wanted to sit with him and his friends at lunch, I was unsure at first but I had no one else to sit with and he seemed really nice, so I agreed. Classes flew by with Alex as it seemed like we had been friends for years, we just clicked. But me and Emerald still couldn't get the thought of our mate out of our heads, it also felt like we were being watched. In the hallway I would hear the occasional whisper of me being the girl who ran or something about an alpha son chasing me but it didn't make sense so I pushed it aside I tried to ignore it. Later on I had gone to the main hall for lunch as that was were Alex and his friends apparently ate, while looking I still hadn't seen the slightest hint that my mate was here, maybe he read the note and decided that it was for the best. But even of the thought of that for some reason broke my heart, no I had to keep it together, that's what I want, I want him to agree. Every time he came up it was an internal struggle to not crumble under temptation but I had to stay strong I had to. Soon I saw Alex waving at me to join him so I quickly went over and sat next to him, when I sat down he put his arm around me which I found out was a usual thing he did with most people. The first time he did it kind of shocked me but after a few times I got used to it. "So everyone this is Elizabeth the girl I was telling you about" I looked around at everyone and the cafeteria table and smiled saying "Hello its nice to meet you all" They all seemed quiet until a girl with ginger hair said "Its nice to meet you to I'm Ella and can I just say your eyes are gorgeous, they are like Alex's" Me and Alex turned to look at each other and said "I suppose they are", we all laughed and the conversation just seemed to flow after that. I found out that James was the funny one of the group, Ella was the goody toe shoes, Jack was the biker kid and Alex was the cool but casual one. They were the four main characters of the group, there were more but it was kind of hard to keep track of everyone. As I was happly talking to everyone I heard Em say something to me at first I didn't quite hear it but then she said it again and it hit me I could smell it too I no longer needed Em to tell me that "He is here!".
