Your mom was the coach of your high school swim team and this year she had finally convinced you to join. You weren't the best, but you were good enough, and made some good friends with your teammates. At the swim team dinner before your first meet, you were sitting beside your friend Newt discussing how you had met last year at a swim meet.

"Yeah, when your mom took me home, I uh kind of ignored you." He admitted sheepishly.

You raised an eyebrow. "Why did you ignore me?"

The blonde began stuttering, and you asked the flustered boy again. "Because I thought you were cute."

"Oh. Okay." You replied, and the girls at your table 'awwww'ed.

The next day at your first swim meet you were again sitting with Newt at the end of a lane cheering another one of your friends on. And again you were talking about the day you had met.

"I still can't believe you ignored me." You shook your head in fake disappointment.

"Well you were the coach's daughter!" He replied in his defense.

"I'm still the coach's daughter, but am I still cute?"

"Yes." He confirmed, and you could feel your cheeks get red. "But I can't go for it because your mom would give me extra laps or something."

"You're a wimp." You rolled your eyes and pulled him into a perfect kiss. "But you are a cute wimp."

Today was your first day of Aerospace after getting a schedule change. Upon walking into the classroom, you realized you were the only girl. Great.

The only empty seat was next to a tall brunette boy furiously scribbling in a notebook. "I'm Y/N." You introduced yourself as you sat beside him.

"Thomas." He replied, not even looking up as he chewed on the end of the pencil in thought.

"If you adjust the thruster shape by 3.5 millimeters and round out the nose a little more it should definitely make it to Pluto." You advised, taking in his spacecraft sketch named S.S. GET TO PLUTO ALREADY.

Now you had caught his attention. He looked over to you with wide eyes, then looked back at his drawing and made the adjustments you recommended. "That's perfect! Thanks, Y/N."

"No problem Thomas." You had a feeling you were really going to like this class.

Of course you had to be the new girl the second month of school. All the cliques, classes, and secret codes had already been established, and now you were suddenly entering the picture.

You had managed to survive your first six periods before it was lunch. It was known to you that your class, the seniors, simply left school during this lunch, but you didn't have a car. So you sat on one of the picnic tables and took out the sandwich your dad had packed. It was just past your lips when someone spoke from behind you.

"You're Y/N, right?" A boy's voice asked.

You turned around to see a boy who was in a few of your classes. "Minho, right? We have English and AP Chem."

"And also Pre-Calc."

"Right." You agreed, a little sheepish that you had forgotten.

"I'm guessing you don't have a car."

You shook your head.

"Well do you wanna go to Wendy's with me for lunch? I could drop you off at your house afterwards. It's bound to be better than a sandwich and the bus." Minho offered, and you were taken aback by his kindness.

"Is this like a date?" You put down the ham sandwich.

"If you want it to be."

A smile spread across your features and you stood up. "Sure. I'd love to."
