Beep Beep. Beep Beep. Beep Beep.

I woke up to my alarm and looked at the time on my phone.

It was 6 AM . I groaned and got up for my morning run. I know it sound a bit cliche but it helps me stay fit and it's healthy for you.

After a forty minute run i went home. When i entered the house it was very quiet. Everyone was asleep. Besides me there were five people in the Woods family. Mr and Mrs Woods, Tyler, Sam and Lisa. Tyler went to college last year. Sam and Lisa went to the same high school as me. Sam was a junior and Lisa was a freshmen.

It was a good half hour before they woke up. I went up the stairs, passing Sam's room and went in my room. Took some clothes from my dresser and went to bathroom in the hallway that we shared. After taking a shower and getting dressed I went Sam's room and knocked on his door.

"Sam! Get up. Its time for school."

I knocked again.

"Sam!"

"I'm up"

I smiled.

"Okay. Hurry! Get ready and come down for breakfast."

He was the only one who was nice to me.

Then I went to Lisa's room to wake her up.

I knocked on her door

"Lisa! Get up. Its time for school."

"Shut Up"

I rolled my eyes.

Of course! she never disappointed.

I went downstairs in the kitchen to make breakfast. I was almost done making it when Sam came downstairs.

"Good morning. Is breakfast ready?"

I smiled at him.

"Almost."

After it was done I ate breakfast with him while talking.

I was done eating.

"Okay. I'm heading to school now." I took my backpack and went outside before Mrs.Woods woke up or Lisa came downstairs. I sat on my bike and went to school. Not Knowing what the day had in store for me.

I reached the school on my bike and locked it.

With my backpack on my shoulder i went inside the school building and towards the lockers.

I looked around. There was no sign of Noah anywhere. I took a deep breath of relief. I didn't want any drama today. Yesterday things hadn't went well and I was in no mood to let Noah annoy the hell out of me.

I opened my locker and put my backpack in and took out the book i needed for my English class. The bell rang and i started walking towards the class.

"Hey! Peanut"

Shit! I knew this voice. Think of the Devil!

I increased my pace. I was almost running.

"Come on! Stop. What are you running for? I don't bite. What are you so afraid of?"

"Yeah!Right. Like that's reassuring. Stop following me!"

"I'm not following you. We have the same class."

I blushed immediately.

"Whatever."

I entered the class and went to my seat.

Noah's seat was on my right.

He sat down and and turned my way.

"What?"

"What", He mouthed back.

"Okay, people settle down. Lets start our class for today."

Miss Smith entered the class.

All through the class I could feel him looking at me.

I knew he was doing it just to annoy me and get a reaction out of me.

But wasn't going to get it today.

And I choose to ignore him. I was used to his antics. This wan't the first time he was doing this.

I peaked at him from the side.

He was still looking. He saw me peaking and smiled like i got ya!

Ugh!I made a face.

Seriously, he was starting to bother me.

"Okay,class.Pay attention."

"I'm going to assign you your final assignment today."

"No."

The whole class erupted in boos.

"Settle down!"

The class became quiet.

"Since this assignment makes about 20% of your grade I decided to make it a little easy for you. You will be doing it duos. And you can choose the your friends that right next to you in all four directions."

The class cheered. But my heart dropped. Something did not feel right.

"Okay, so choose your partner and come to me to write down your names. You have until the end of class.

I turned to Tess at my right. She was a very nice person. We were friends. Sort of. I guess. She would definitely partner up with me if i asked.

"Hey,Tess!" I tapped her on the shoulder.

She turned towards me.

"Yeah! What's up." She smiled.

"Will you partner up with me for this assignment?" I asked hopefully.

Please! please! Please! Say yes! Say yes!

"Oh! Sorry sweetie!We already decide to do this assignment togather." She pointed towards her boyfriend behind.

Joey looked at me.

"You're not getting my girlfriend today. I've already called dibbs on her."

I laughed.

"Okay. I'm settle down there. I'm taking your girlfriend."

I turned looked at all sides except for Noah but they had already chosen their friends next to them.

NO!You've got to be kidding me. This was not happening.

I knew what was coming next.
