Emma
"My home room?" Jace looks at me like I grew another head.

Why Lord? Why me? "It's no big deal" I say which is the total opposite of what I want to say.

"You're right, let's go" he shakes his head as if to clear his thoughts.

The bell rings and we head to homeroom. I tell him to go in before me and he gives me a stubborn look.

"I don't want it to be weird. Just go, please" I beg him and he begins to waver.

He thinks about it for a while then says yes. "Only because you said yes" he looks at me and walks in.

"After a few seconds, I go in and everyone look at me like I'm an alien which I kind of am. Jace gives me to reassuring smile from his seat.

"Miss Davis, can you please come to the front of the class"
the teacher immediately calls me out.

I walk to his desk and he looks at his rooster.

"Emma Davis, I'm Mr Edwards" I immediately think of Twilight and Edward and I smile. This man is definitely not as ugly as Edwards.

"Introduce yourself to the class, please" he gestures towards the rest of the class.

I take a deep breath and turn to face the class. "Hey everyone, I'm Emma and I moved here from Indiana. Um.. that's it." I turn to Mr Edwards who nods at me and I walk towards the only available seat, the one in front of Jace.

"So class, welcome back from your weekends, I hope you did all assignments. Please make an effort to be nice to Miss Emma" at the mention of my name everyone turns to look at me and my cheeks turn pink from embarrassment and I just want to crawl under my locker.

When everyone's attention is back to the teacher, the girl beside me turns to me.

"I know that feeling, when you want to crawl under your locker. I'm Kim, Kim Daniels" she has black hair and her brown eyes light up when she smiles.

"Thanks, I'm Emma" I smile at her.

For the rest of the period we don't say anything. Then the bell rings and I the teacher wraps up.

I stand up an clear the top of my locker when Kim finally speaks up.

"What do you have now?" She grabs her backpack from the floor.

"English" I tell her. "Really, me too. We can go together" she smiles at me.

Wow. This is really cliché. This is like something out of a movie or a book.

"Thanks, Kim" I turn to Jace who is talking to some of his friends.

"Uh.. Jace" I tap his arm gently and he turns to me. "Kim and I are heading off to English."

"Okay" he waves at Kim "Hi Kim, I'm Jace." He turns back to me "Bye Em, see you in Chemistry"

I turn back to a dazed Kim and drag her out of the class.

"D-did Jace Williams just talk to me?" She looks at me.

"Uh.. yeah, let's get to class" I drag her and stop. "Which is where?" I turn to her.

She leads me toward our class and we take a seat on the second row.

"Alright details, now. How do you know Jace Williams? I've been trying to get him to notice me for the past three months and you're friends on your first day? What kind of drugs or charms or hypnosis did you use?" She bombards me with questions.

"Wow, you're just like Mia, chill alright? I'll explain during lunch" I laugh at her.

"Wait who's Mia and I can't wait till lunch time, I'll die of curiosity" she pleads.

"Okay, Mia is my best friend an she lives back in Indiana. Jace and I are childhood friends, that's all you get for now" I chuckles as the teacher steps into the class.

"Good morning, class. This morning our topic is The Great Gatsby" the teacher announces and the whole class groans excluding me. I love that book.

"Really, this book is so... weird" Kim whispered to me.

"No, it's not" I want to argue more but Kim nudges me and I clamp my mouth shut.

"I'm sure most of you have read it, so we'll just revise it" the teacher who I learn is Miss Chloe. She's young, like early thirties young and she has short blond hair.

For the rest of the class Miss C (the name I intelligently gave her) talked about The Great Gatsby.

After a few hours or so it's time for my chemistry class, with the help of directions and walking around for a long time I get there.

I go in put on a lab coat and sit next to Jace. "Hi, today's been really hectic" I smile at Jace.

"Don't worry about it you'll get used to it soon" he plays with a test tube.

"Miss Davies, will you please come forward?" Our teacher calls me out.

I think I'm in trouble and I'm about to explain what I don't really know, when she speaks up.

"Because, nobody is free for you're partner I'll put you in someone's group." She asks the class "Which group will like to take Miss Davies?"

When I'm beginning to lose hope, Jace raises his hand "We will."

The whole class states at Jace but he doesn't seem to notice. I guess he's used to it by now. The teacher and I sigh in relief at the same time.

"Thank you, Jace" then she faces me. "You'll be joining Jace and Logan's group, is that okay?" She looks a bit concerned.

"It's okay, thank you" I walk back to my seat next to Jace.

"Where's Logan, your partner? I survey the class but I don't see him.

"He skipped class. He's pretty good in Chemistry but he hates it" he smiles at me.

"Class, I'm going to give all of you an assignment" a few people glare at me as though it's my fault. Hey, I don't like it either.

"Everyone is going to make a project on earth because last week we went through gases that harm the earth. So you're going to write a report on it and a practical" the teacher explains and that earns groans all around the class "Jace, are you good with chemistry?" I ask him because he doesn't seem too happy about the assignment.

"I'm okay, but not that good" he seems embarrassed.

"Okay, what about art?" I ask him.

"Really? I'm great with art like drawing or writing and I've even tried a bit of sculpting before" he smiles proudly.

"Okay, I'll work on the report, you'll do the practical and Logan can help me with the report" I tell him simply.

"Nice, but you'll have to teach me a bit of the report, alright?" He nudges me playfully.

"Okay, I'll see what I can I do" I giggle quietly.

The bell rings after some minutes and Jace nudges me. "Quick, I'm hungry" he points to his stomach.

I laugh as I gather my stuff. "Let's go, before you eat me" I laugh.

As we walk towards the cafeteria, I remember Kim. "Um.. Jace, can I sit with Kim? I promised her I'll tell her about something" I ask him. Why am I asking him? I can eat wherever I want.

"I was expecting to eat with you and introduce you to my friends but don't worry about it. Tomorrow ?" He holds out his hand.

"Deal" I shake it. His hand is warm and rough and I find myself wanting to be in his arms and I drop my hands.

"Let's go" he smiles obviously not noticing what just happened.

I walk into the cafeteria that's bubbling with noise and I say good bye to Jace and look around for Kim.

I see her on a table with a few other people. "Hi Kim, may I ?"

"Of course, Emma" she scoots closer to the girl beside her so I can sit. "Thanks, hey everyone" I look at the people at the table, they are six including Kim.

"Emma, guys. Guys, Emma. This is Dave, Sara, Karen, Will and Chad" she points to each person as she mentions their names.

A few "heys" and "what's up" go around the table as I fish out my lunch from my bag

Kim turns to face me. "I need you to spit it out, right now" she commands me.

I open my paper bag and bring out my ham sandwich and orange juice plus some cookies my grandma gave me this morning.

"Well, Jace and I were friends as kids because my grandma lives a few houses away from his. But we don't come back and then my mom decides we should move" I bite into my sandwich.

"Wait.... was he cute as a kid?" She asks me and I laugh.

"Yes, he was actually very cute. I use to wake up very early so I could go see him" I smile fondly remembering the memory.

We continue our lunch in peace until a blonde who I'm guessing is the queen bee because of her entourage, walks towards me.

Then I notice they aren't wearing designer dresses or killer heels or too much make up. Diane is wearing a short black skirt, a crop top and boots while the blondes beside her are wearing jeans and designer shirts.

"Hi, I'm Diane. This is Anna and Kaitlyn, you must be new. I'm kind of like a queen here but I want to formally introduce you to Water Hill High" she smiles at me.

I guess I'm not in an episode on mean girls. Yay for me.

"Thanks, I really like it here. It's... okay, I guess" I look at Kim for help who is chatting happily with Kaitlyn.

"Okay, see you around Emma" she waves at me and walks away. Wow.

As I'm walking out of the cafeteria after lunch, Jace taps me gently on my shoulder and I jump.

"Why are you so tense? Did you just kill someone?" he teases me.

"That's not funny" I groan as we walk towards the locker rooms.

"See ya in class" he smiled at me before entering the guy's locker room and I hear boys chanting his name.

He doesn't seem to like the chanting as it soon dies down.

I step into the girls locker room and the smell of perfume is choking. I hurriedly find my locker and change oblivious of a few girls who decide to laugh at me for reasons I'm not sure why.

As I walk out people are either laughing or trying not to laugh as I walk past them. What the heck is going on?

As I get to the gym the coach looks at me then at my back and I'm wondering pervert.

"Emma Davies, do you mind explaining why your shirt has I love Jace?" written on the back. Oh shit.

Hey guys, do you guys like Kim? And calm down Emma won't ditch Mia, aiit?

Please vote and comment on what you think about Diane. Is she pretending? Or is she really nice?

Bye loves.
