When the bell rung, signaling it was time for class, I decided to talk to this strange boy. Why I did it? I honestly don't know. Maybe it was because he looked like he was debating on one thing or another or maybe it was because he had a certain mysterious air to him.

I don't know why I did it... But I did. "Hey I'm Serenity." I said turning to look at him and when I did my breath caught. He had the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. They were like the ocean, calm, before the storm and brown hair like mine, but not to long just enough to where it fell in his eyes.

"Derek." His voice wasn't to deep nor to high, I felt like I was in a trance. Weird right?

Why is this happening to me? Why is he having this kind of effect? I blinked for a moment and was silent. I opened my mouth to say something, but the teacher walked into the classroom.

"Welcome Class! Today we will be talking about the periodic table and its elements." I groaned. I hated chemistry. It was the only class I couldn't get. I once had to get a tutor because it was so bad. I heard laughter beside me and turned. there he was smirking and coughing to cover his laughter.

What's so funny?" I asked glaring at him. He smirked "Nothing." I shot him one more annoyed look before turning back to the teacher to try and pay attention.

Finally the bell rung, signaling that it was time to go home. I silently thanked God that it was time to go.

Worst hour of my life.

I was packing up my stuff and was about to sling it over my shoulder when a hand snatched it out of my grip. when I saw whose shoulders it was on I blushed.

Derek was looking down at me with a small smile on his face and a soft look in his eyes. I think my face could not have gotten any more red than it already was . " Um you don't have to carry that." I mumbled. "I want to ." He replied smiling down at me and with that he headed out the door with me following behind.

We stopped on the bottom step outside the school. It was silent until I cleared my throat and spoke up, " Thank you again. You really didn't have to."  "It's like I said I wanted to." With a shrug he gave me my bag and left.

After that I left. heading home. "Hey mom. Im home." I yelled walking into the house. " how was school?" She asked. I only had one word to answer that question.

"Interesting." I replied, then went to my room. I did my homework and then went to bed thinking about a boy with oceanic blue eyes.
