I survived my first week, barely.

I was sat in English, my last class of the day before school was out for the weekend. Abby was sat in front of me and I was trying to find a reason to speak to her. What the heck.

"Abby?".

Turning around in her seat she smiled at me. "Hey Leah you okay?". Already I could tell she was a sweet girl, she was beautiful too.

"This is so random". I laughed. "But I promised him I would do it". She frowned at me. "Do you know Ryan Smith?". I asked.

"I-I know of him why?". She seemed a little reserved, shy even. She was the first girl other than Alanna and Lacey at this school that didn't look at me like I didn't belong. "Do you like him?". I asked.

"I don't know him". She shrugged.

"Would you be willing to get to know him?". I grinned.

"He's a football player Leah and I'm well- look at me". She frowned. "I don't exactly scream popularity".

"Who cares about that stuff. It's senior year, our last year at school. You never know you might like him". I winked. I hoped she'd give him a chance.

"I don't know Leah-.."

"What have you got to lose?".

"Okay". She smiled.

Sneaking out my phone I looked Ryan's number up and scribbled it down. "Here it's his number". Passing it to her I held my breath as my phone was plucked from my hand. "Twice I've caught you with your phone out in class Miss Wilson".
