, 9:02 PM[Maddie POV]
I stepped into school and couldn't wait to find Leo. I looked through my phone , and saw the messages that Leo sent me. " So , it wasn't a dream. We really are together now. " I thought to myself. I scrolled through the sweet texts he sent me after he sent me home. Dreamily , I walked towards my first class. I entered the classroom just as the bell rung. I quickly took my seat and looked at Leo's seat. There was someone there , but it was not my Leo. I sighed. The teacher entered the class and started her lesson as per normal. The lesson dragged on , and my eyelids started to droop. Like an alarm , someone kicked the back of my chair. Stunned , I turned back , wanting to glare at whoever it was. As I looked back , a beautiful pair of brown eyes stared back at me. It was my Leo! I blushed , and turned to face the teacher once again.
After class , I took my time packing my things , hoping Leo would talk to me. "Hey. Are you done packing, missy?" I looked up and saw the smile that made me fall in love with Leo.
"Yes , I am."
"Then , go on to your next class. I'll see you at lunch." He gave me a peck on the cheek and left the classroom. I felt relieved that he left as I could feel my face burning up. I smiled to myself and hurried to my next class.
[Cheryl's POV]
I felt really happy that I got put at the back of the class when school started. From here , I could see what every student was doing. From using their phones , to eating , to sleeping. I stared at Zack. Since we were little , we were the bestest of friends. Our mums always threw us together when they wanted to go shopping. We were like siblings. Well , not exactly. Since I was young , I always thought of Zack as more than a friend , but I know , we'll never be a couple as he has the perfect girlfriend. They have been together for only 3 months. But that's enough to know that I'll never have Zack for myself. Jessica had all the money , the latest clothes and all the popularity.
I looked away, tears forming in my eyes. I promised myself I would never cry over a guy, but here I am , crying in the middle of English class. I wiped away my tears before they could fall from my eyes. I went through the lesson in a daze. "HEY FRIEND!" I snapped out of my trance and saw Zack staring at me.
"Hey."
"What's up? Why so glum?"
"Just tired."
"Oh. Okay. Let's go for lunch! I'm starving."
I followed Zack to the cafeteria. As Zack got his food , I looked around for my friends. I suddenly saw a spastic hand waving at me. It turned out to be Selena's. Always the hyper one , I thought to myself. We walked over the where they were sitting and started some casual conversation.
[Ezra's POV]
Looking at Brooke's face , was like seeing the sun for the first time. She was laughing at some lame joke that Derek said. Pshh , what's so good about him anyway. I scanned the faces of my good friends at the table. Cheryl was reading through a book I bet she's read before. Selena was looking really sad and lonely. I was the only one who knew why she was like that. Derek looked like he was having the time of his life. I sighed. Brooke will never like me , I thought to myself. "Hey guys! Can I sit with you, dear ?" I looked up and saw Jessica. "Bitch." I muttered under my breath.
Without waiting for an answer , Jessica plopped down beside Zack and started taking control of the conversation. Selena immediately left the table without a word. She hated Jessica. I looked over at Brooke and gave her a look. She understood and excused herself from the table to find Selena. I closed my eyes and thought about my summer. I remembered the parties Brooke held at her house, and when the whole clique had to clean up before her parents came home. I opened my eyes to see Jessica staring at me with the "what the hell" look. I rolled my eyes at her and looked at my lunch.
The bell rung and Jessica gave a loud screech, like she does every time. From where I was seated, I could hear Cheryl muttering "Attention seeker." We all said goodbyes and left for our own classes.
