Harry's Point of View

I walked into physics with Mrs. Bogue. She seems, uh, weird I suppose. Her eyes kinda scare me the way they pop out of her face but that's okay; I'm sure she'll be nice.

When class began she called roll like normal. I can't decide if I want to try to use an American accent to blend in, or if I want to just be me. I guess I told Alyssa earlier to just be herself so--

"Harold Styles?"

"Here." I said in my own accent. "You can call me Harry though." She scratched through Harold and put Harry as my name on the roll sheet. I heard whispers around the room but I stayed fixated on the whiteboard.

When Mrs. Bogue finished roll we went over the syllabus which took up most of the class. Or at least I thought it would. I forgot the classes are 90 minutes rather than 45 since we only have four classes a day.

"So now that we have that complete does anyone have any questions?" She's very polite but a bit monotone. I'm interested to see how this class is going to go.

No one said anything so she moved on.

"This year we will have lab partners for certain things we will be working with such as making paper airplanes and measuring, uhh, stuff." I don't know if she's not prepared or just a little slow. "I'm going to let you pick your partner since we are all seniors and mature," her eyes popped out even further at the word mature, "but if we have any problems I will switch some things up."

I don't know anyone, this is going to be awful. I think I'll just sit here and wait for someone to ask me to be partners.

"So go ahead. When you find a partner please come to the front and tell me your names. After that I'll give you a homework assignment and you can begin in class since we only have twenty minutes left. Any questions?" Everyone remained silent so she signaled us to search the room.

"Hi!"
"Hey!"
"Ello!"

Three girls appeared in my face and I just looked at each of them. This school is full of hot girls. I should've come to America sooner.

"Uhh, hi. You all okay?" They looked at me funny. "How are you?"

"Oh, great."
"Perfect."
"Lovely."

They batted their eyes and one began twisting her hair in circles. That was Amber from the Carlo's!

"Amber?"

"Oh, so you do remember me?" Amber got close to me and sat on my desk as she chomped on her gum. She almost reminds me of Megan and Erin.

"So, who are you going to pick to be your partner?"

What? Who said any of them were going to be my partner?

"I don't know, I guess--"

"You know your accent is to die for." The brunette with braces said, trying way too hard.

"Thanks, I guess." I kept smiling, trying not to be rude.

"Look girls," I just need to be confident, "I'd love to be partners with any of you so just pick a number one through ten. Whoever is the closest will get to be my partner.

I looked for the smartest out of the three. They're hot, but hot isn't going to get me an A.

"Three!" Amber shouted.
"Seven!" The brunette said.
"Four!" The shorter brunette responded.

"Well, four it is." That's actually what I was thinking. The other two sulked while we introduced ourselves.

"I'm Madeline, or Maddie for short."

"Harry." I smiled and held out my had for her to shake. I think she's going to be pretty smart. And she was the least annoying out of the three.

I walked into the cafeteria, clueless as to where to go. It wasn't a huge cafeteria but it wasn't small either. The tables were weird--the chairs were attached so they wouldn't move. Their was a senior section but I heard you don't have to sit in that section if you don't want to. I found the pizza line and waited behind at least ten people. It seemed to be moving at a smooth pace so I was fine with it.

I scanned the room looking for Alyssa. I thought she said we had the same lunch. When I didn't see her I continued through the doors to get my pizza. As I walked out I saw her walk in with a lunch bag. That's what I'm going to have to do from now on; this pizza looks disgusting.

She sat at a table not very close to anyone and opened a book that didn't look familiar. I'd have to ask her which one.

"Hey bro, what's up?"

A large man-boy stood in front of me. I really hope he's not about to kick my ass for no reason. I've seen movies.

"Wanna sit with us?" He pointed to a table with a whole bunch of guys squirting milk through their noses and snogging with some girls.

"Uhh, actually I was going to sit with my--"

"Awesome! I have a spot for you right over here." I guess I am sitting with them. "What's up my man." Another pretty big guy stood up and sort of shook my hand. It was more like he tried to pull me in for a hug but we ended up colliding.

"Hi." I smiled again.

"I'm Jordan and this is Mike, Logan, and Sean." They all waved with an approving smirk.

I sat in a seat next to the girl who tripped Alyssa at the ice cream shop. Crystal I think. "Oh, hey sexy." I really don't know how I feel about her.

"Hey." I picked up my pizza and took a bite; trying not to spit it right back out. It was so greasy and the pepperoni's just tasted sour. I immediately opened my milk and chugged it--which ended up being a bad idea.

"Chug! Chug! Chug!" All of the guys said in unison, banging on the table while the girls laughed.

I set my milk down and wiped my mouth. They are pretty funny. I laughed and they began telling me about the football team and how amazing they are. It's weird, they're pretty big guys to be playing football. Maybe they're all defenders.

"Hey baby." I looked over and Sean smacked some girls bum as she walked by. When she turned around and I noticed it was Alyssa I got up and she looked at me like she was really upset but shook her head, letting me know not to follow her. I should have just sat with her to begin with.

"She's such a freak Sean, why would you even do that?" One of the girls yelled to him, knowing Alyssa can still hear.

"She's a sexy freak this year. I mean damn, she actually has a chest." Everyone laughed like he was Will Ferrel or Jim Cary. I didn't find it funny at all.

I clenched my fists and bit my lip as hard as I could so I wouldn't say anything to them. They wanted me to sit with them but they hadn't said one word to me besides "chug, chug, chug." They didn't ask where I'm from, why I'm here, or even my name.

I stood up and grabbed my lunch, "Yoo, where are you going?"

"I have to go to the bathroom." I dropped my food in the bin and walked out, looking for Alyssa.
