Junior? Why would junior be staring at me?
Did I do something to make him upset off? I mean I barley knew him, what could I have done in this short amount of time I've known him to make him hate me?
I looked back to see if Jake was being serious, after realizing he was, I soon became filled with anxiety.
"Y/n are you alright?" Jake asked.
"Yep, just worried for next period." I lied.
Jake sighed, "look I know when someone is lying-"
"Mrs. Y/l/n, Mr. Wheeler, what is so important you're disrupting my class?"
I became very embarrassed as my classmates started laughing.
"Nothing, mrs Fairchild" Jake said, taking one for the team.
I mouthed "Thank you" to Jake as mrs Fairchild continued.

After class, I stuck with Jake and noticed that it was being spread around the school that me and Jake were a "thing."
"Great, I haven't even been here a full day and there's already a rumor about me." I said.
Jake is gay but, I don't think anyone cared enough to know.
"I just learned not to care what they think and be myself." Jake said.
"God, I wish I had your mindset." I laughed.
Jake laughed
"I don't think we have this class together." I added.
"Me either but, hopefully I'll see you around." Jake said.
"Definitely, bye!" I waved to Jake as I stepped into the class room.
In class i noticed the boy from the bus, Devon, sitting all by himself and decided to do Jake a favor by hopefully becoming his new friend.
"Can I sit here?" I asked pointing to the empty seat next to him.
"Yeah, sure." He Said with a smile.
"I'm y/n." I said as I sat in the seat.
"Devon." He said.
"You're new right? I haven't seen you here before." He asked.
"Yes, I actually just moved here." I answered.
"Well, it's nice to meet you, y/n." He said.
Without me or Devon noticing, junior was watching us talk, the whole class.

Later that day at lunch I noticed Jake sitting alone and decided to sit across from him.
"Hey, y/n I didn't expect to see you at all." Jake laughed as he said sarcastically.
I chuckled, "I mean who would skip lunch?" I said jokingly as Devon, the boy from my previous class sat down next to me.
"That's funny, y/n." Devon said.
"You've met each-other?" Jake asked.
I nodded, "Yeah, we had last period together actually." I said.
I noticed two tables away lexy and junior were sitting with a group of there friends.
I hoped this year would be easy but would it?
I stopped zoning out on their table and focused on Jake and Devon talking to each-other.
I felt so lucky to have two friends, at my old town I had a huge group of friends but ever since I moved we didn't really talk as much.
And here I felt like I could tell them anything and they would never judge me for it, Jake and Devon went through a lot of the same things as I did.
Maybe that's why we all clicked so fast.
