《The Alpha And The Shy Girl?》Mate?
Advertisement
Ugh I thought, as I lazily climbed out of bed and went to the bathroom. First day of school in a different country, great (feel free to note the sarcasm).
I came out of the bathroom after doing all my business and tried to think of an appropriate outfit to wear, I mean, an oversized jumper and leggings are not the best for a first impression, right?
I ended up picking grey, torn in the knees skinny jeans, a grey and black sweater with my vans. For the final touch I did my make up which consisted of concealer, powder and a bit of mascara. I brushed my hair and added a silver colored watch to my look. Glancing in the mirror, I saw the same old, clumsy girl looking back at me.
God! I'm so sorry, forgot to even introduce myself. My name is Hunter Black, I'm 16 and will be 17 in July the 10th. I'm about 5'6 feet tall and I have blond hair and blue eyes.
I skipped downstairs, grabbed an apple and a coffee, said good bye to my grandma and headed to school. If you're asking yourself why I live with my grandma, well, if putting it simple, she's the only person in my family that actually cares for me. I don't like to talk about my personal life so bear with me.
I entered the school and went straight to the office to get my timetable and locker number (I was already late, so much for a good first impression...).
"Hi, my name is Hunter and I'm new here" I said to the nice looking old lady sitting behind the desk in the office.
"Oh hello there, here's your timetable and your locker number. Now run along or you'll be even more late than you already are" she answered back with a smile.

I smiled back and thanked her, then headed to my first class, maths. I found room number 213 and knocked on the door and waited for a reply.
"Come in" I heard a low grumble say and I quietly slipped inside the classroom. About 20 pairs of eyes stared back at me and I just wanted to be swallowed up by the floor I was standing on. If you didn't understand it yet, I'm not an attention seeking person. I prefer peace, quiet and being as further away from big crowds as possible.
"Ah, you must be the new girl, Hunter Black, I suppose?" Said the teacher, bringing back to real life.
"Yes Sir" I answered back. From the corner of my eye I noticed a guy staring right at me. He had dark brown hair and gorgeous forest green eyes. The square jaw and intense stare just added to his hotness. Wait, what?! Did I just check him out? Oh god...
"...so you can sit next to-" The teachers sentence was cut off by the Greek god- I mean, the brown haired guy abruptly standing up and saying "Me, she will sit next to me".
The teachers eyes glazed over for a second, or at least that's what it looked like, and straight after he said "yes, yes, that will be okay. Now class, let's continue the lesson" he answered as if that guy didn't just command him to do anything. What the actual fudging cupcakes is going on here?!
I walked towards the seat next to the Greek god (I still don't know his name) and of course, being the clumsy me, I tripped on someone's foot and was falling face first towards the floor. I closed my eyes and prepared myself for the impact but it never came. Instead of the floor smashing my face in, I felt two strong arms wrap around me and pull me up and into a strong chest. I felt hot breath tickle the side of my face, creating goosebumps all over my skin. The bell rang just as I heard the word "Mine".
