The Eyes Of An Angel|| Minizerk

Simon's POV

I was so nervous. I was about to go into my new high school, and start my new life. I thought of the millions of ways today could go disastrously wrong. I must've dug my fingers into Josh's hand, because I felt his eyes on me.

"Don't be so nervous, Si. I'll look after you."

"I'll help you round school and everything"

"Thank you, but that's not what I'm worried about..." I muttered.

"I'll stay with you the whole day. I'll get a teacher to change our timetables so we're together. Don't worry" Josh said, just as the bus stopped. He took my hand and led me off the bus, carrying my bag.

"Let's go, Si. Here's your bag" he said, handing me my backpack.

"Thanks" I say nervously, gripping his hand harder. Here we go...

Josh's POV

I led Si to the head's office, ignoring the funny looks people were giving the popular kid leading a boy that kept his eyes shut by the hand. Simon was gripping my hand tighter, clearly nervous. He could probably feel the inquisitive gazes on us... I walked a little faster, hoping to avoid everybody. Today could be interesting...
