Before I knew it, it was Monday and I didn't want to get up for school. I lay in my bed thinking of all the possible illnesses I could fake to get the day off but I already had a week off due to my chest infection.

I got up and had a quick shower. My outfit choice consisted of a white ribbed Shirt and denim shorts I threw on my high top white converse and applied my usual mascara and lipgloss. My hair was left natural which was always a curly mess but somehow it looked kinda cute.

I checked the time only to see I had 15 minutes before I had to be at school. I picked up my bag and phone and rushed downstairs to the kitchen.

"Morning" I said with a rush taking a chocolate muffin with one hand and grabbing Cohen's wrist with the other.

"Were late" is all i had to sign before his eyes widened and he got the keys. We both said bye to mum and dad and drove off to school.

"If that bastard does anything to you today you come find me straight away" he signed to me as soon as we were parked up.

"Okay"is all I signed before hopping out the car and making my way to the doors to find Charlotte.

I felt gentle hands touch my shoulder and I spun around to be face to face with Charlotte.

"Hey girlie"her lips said and I smiled at the nickname.

"Hey char" i gave her a nickname back.

"Char, I like it nobody's ever called me that nickname they usually call me Charlie" she rambled still smiling.

"Well that's what I will call you" I grinned at her.

Another persons hand touched my shoulder and this time if felt much more bigger and stronger. I turned around and Ethan stood in front of me.

"Hey star, glad to see you back" he had a massive handsome smile stretched across his face.

"Hi Ethan"

"So what you got first period?"he asked me.

"I have History with Mrs Miller" I said whilst looking behind him seeing the other two walking up behind Ethan.

"Me too. Come on I'll walk with you" Ethan said grabbing my arm gently and leading the way.

I shouted goodbye to Charlotte and continued to walk with him.

We got to the History room and walked in.

Again everyone's eyes were on us. It makes me uncomfortable.

Ethan took us to the back and we sat beside each other.

"Mrs Miller is always late"

"That's okay more time to prepare myself I'm horrible at History"just as I finished my sentence Mrs Miller walked in.

"Oh I guess she's early today" Ethans lips moved.

"Hello students how was your weekend"she looked at me and smiled. She seems nice. "So I'm going to get straight to the point. You have a project and it will be 70% or your grade. It will be on world war 2 and I will let you choose your partners. I would like you to make a 25 page booklet of the whole war" it took me a while to figure out what she said but after I did I looked around for a partner.

I looked at Ethan and smiled he smiled back and nodded. Well that's that then.

"Mrs Miller said she would give us the rest of the lesson to discuss it" he told me what I missed Mrs Miller saying.

"Okay"

"So do you want to come round to mine and work on the project tonight. It's due in 2 weeks" he asked me. I thought about it for a second and decided I would.

"Sure give me your address" Ethan just shook his head and then began saying "actually would you just like to come straight from school I could bring you" he looked a little nervous whilst I read his lips.

"Okay will meet you at the school doors" a look of relief and happiness washed over his face.

Weird.

"The bell just rang I will see you at half two" he said and I nodded and picked up my bag and walked out.

The day flew by quiet fast I didn't see Ace or Elliot the rest of the day. At lunch it was me and the girls and now I'm waiting for Ethan to come and meet me.

5 minutes went past and there wasn't any sign of him coming.

10 minutes still nothing.

A hand touched my shoulder and I jumped. I spun around quickly and the one and only Ace stood in front of me.

"Stop doing that" I scold.

"Doing what" he looked confused.

"Scaring me" I said and signed. I'm not sure why I was signing probably because I was pissed of he was here.

"Whatever, it doesn't look like Ethans coming do you want me to take you home" his face looked like it hurt him to be nice. Wait. Why was he being nice?

"No" I turned around and walked away. I don't know why he's being like this but I don't like it.

A hand grabbed my hand and started pulling me the opposite way I was walking.

"Ace get of me I'm not coming with you" I think I shouted because a couple eyes turned our way.

"Just get in the car. I need to speak to you anyway" he stopped in front of a black McLaren. He's a freaking poshy

"Bloody hell this is your car" I'm staring at the car in front of me gobsmacked.

I looked up at him and he shrugged his shoulders opening the door for me.

I shouldn't get in but I couldn't help myself I wanted to ride in this car.

"Fine but promise you will take me straight home no messing about" I saw him start laughing and didn't stop for about 3 minutes.

"What the fuck are you laughing at shithead?" I asked getting a bit frustrated.

Also if you haven't noticed I have a bit of a swearing problem.

"Your accent. It's cool" it was hard to make out what he was saying in between laughs.

I gave him a harsh glare warning him to stop.

He immediately stopped and then said "I promise now get in Stella"

Okay. Somethings up why didn't he call me deafy. The very short time I have known him he's never called me by my first name it's always deafy.

"Your weird" that's the last thing I said before I got into the car. He closed the door and walked around to get in.

Once he was in the car he started the engine which made the car roar to life and drove out of the car park.

"Where do you live?" He asked after he got my attention.

"Is that why you wanted to take me home so you could find out where I live and kill me in my sleep?" I looked at him with questioning eyes.

"What? Fuck no I need to know where you live to take you home" he looked a little bit nervous for a moment. Why's he acting like this I thought he was this big bad boy with a bad temper.

"What's up with you? Why you acting like this I thought you were a twat and supposed to break my ankles or something" he looked at me with an angry emotion through his eyes.

"Of course" his lips moved and he looked away.

"You know I have only spoke to you a couple of times and both times you shouted at me and last Monday you threw me in a pool and I couldn't breathe properly for a week. Now your taking me home and calling me by my first name. Your so annoying" I ranted.

I needed to get what I was feeling. I'm sitting in a McLaren with a boy who threw me in a pool and nearly drowned. Am I insane? Yep

I looked out the window to find we were a couple of minutes away from my street.

Then I felt a tap on my shoulder and I looked at Ace whose lips started moving.

"I didn't know you couldn't swim. I know I shouldn't of thrown you in the pool in the first place and I'm sorry. And trust me I don't apologise very often." It was true by the look on his face he did look sorry.

I don't get why everyone is so scared of him. Look at me I got him to apologise and I've known him for a day.

At the same time he finished speaking we parked up outside my house.

I opened the door and climbed out.

"See ya" I said.

"Bye" was all he replied with and drove off.
