Chapter Two: Not so perfect stranger

The rest of the weekend went by unsurprisingly fast-unsurprising since 1 knew it was because I was dreading today Monday. My first day at my new high school, Caliver High.

Looking over at my clock it read 7:30. I was running late, I can't believe I was going to be late on my first day!

In a frantic rush, I pulled on the carefully planned outfit I'd laid out on the chair beside my bed. Taking a deep breath i looked in the mirror. i smiled as I looked back at my reflection happy that I had rather successfully pulled off the American look I had seen girls wearing yesterday at the mall. Ah... Not that I was going to fit in any way. Who was i kidding?! My accent alone would separate me out from my peers

My smile left the reflections face as I looked at my clashing appearance-by clashing I'm talking about my jet black hair which naturally twisted into ringlets half way down, pale white skin and baby blue eyes. The three features totally shouldn't go together, and I guess they didn't but I was born this way. A few times I had thought of changing my hair color, but my parents and friends would have always given me this horrified expression. But anyway enough with the way I look... Time for schoul The bus stop was about half a mile away from the house, but I reassured Gran I would be fine. So here I was, a seventeen-year-old walking to the bus stop. How sad is this?! Back home I couldn't get my license because my parents couldn't afford lessons and I certainly couldn't pay for them myself. I sighed, I really wanted my own car...

Images of my future car filled my consciousness as I arrived at the bus stop. There was no one waiting and so when the orange bus pulled up. I was the only one to get on. Awkward! I could feel my heart beating double time as I looked back at all the staring faces. The only comfort being was that most of the kids were considerably younger than me. 15-year-old - ones that couldn't drive!

None of the kids said a word to me the whole journey, though they continued to stare

"Do you see something you like? Because i don't I glared at a couple of young teenage boys who were literally turned in their seats to look at me. The boys just laughed hitting each other, one even had the little guts to mutter 'yes' under his breath.

Kids, I rolled my eyes.

Did I mention-1 REALLY NEED MY OWN CAR

Finally, we arrived at Caliver high school.

I was a little relieved that I didn't have to sort out my schedule, as thanks to Gran I'd picked it up yesterday.

My heart was racing again as I looked at all the students getting out of their cars, greeting friends, and... kissing. Standing on the bus as I waited for the kids. to clamber off, I caught sight of the school entrance. A plan formed in my head to make a quite B line towards it.

I casually sunk my hands in my jacket pockets-something I tended to do when i was nervous, took a deep breath and began the first few steps towards the comforting doors. I didn't like the way the students would stop their conversations as I walked past, it made me feel uncomfortable and 1 as much as I tried, I couldn't seem to walk any faster.

"Hey!" I very clearly heard a guy call, but

I tried to act as if I hadn't. I didn't want to stop now, so instead of turning around I kept my head down and hoped he would just let me go.

"Hey, I'm taking a survey" He was right beside me now and I looked up to see a guy with dusty brown hair and brown eyes, admittedly he was hot, but on first impressions, his football jacket just screamed player.

"Er, what?" I frowned, as he just grinned at me.

"First," he carried on "your name?" He asked. "Er Skylar..." I frowned utterly confiased, we were stopped now and I noticed others were stood around us watching our littleconversation, "What's your phone number?" He continued, while I frowned at him trying to decipher whether this guy was actually serious

"I don't have time for this. Please just let me get to class." I muttered while trying to walk past him.

"Would you go out with a perfect stranger?" He continued as he stood in front of me, causing me to stop again. I stared up at him as I contemplated his question, I couldn't lie, he was sort of good looking too bad be was annoying.

"Yes... But you're not perfect I smirked back, and then stepped around him and continued my way towards the waiting doors.

"Ouch." He called hock, causing me to smile. slightly but carried on my way.

I was bombarded with the constant sound of whistles and countless chat up lines, as I walked through the school corridors. I was starting to feel as if maybe coming to this school wasn't a good idea, and surprisingly I was wishing I was back at my old school in England.

"You're new right?" I turned to see another guy smiling at me as he matched his pace with mine. He had blonde hair and light blue eyes. He was rather good looking in looks could be conceiving. a cute kind of way, however, I knew that

"Is it that obvious?" I asked, surprised to feel my cheeks warm slightly Why was i blushing?

"Er. Yeah?" He smiled, running his hand through his hair. "My names Wesley by the way I gave him a genuine smile as we

continued to walk down the corridor. For some reason, he seemed different than the other guys here. I mean he was smarter than the rest for a start. Instead of shouting out chat-up lines from across the corridor, he was actually making the effort to talk to me.

"Skylar" I introduced myself.

"Would you like me to show you to your next class?" He asked slightly unsure, which had me smiling and nodding my head.

"That would actually be great, being new and all"

"You're English?" He asked

"Yep." I said popping my p

"Your accents cute." He complimented me.

"Thanks," I said instead of coming up with some witry comment.

"So what's your first lesson?"

"Hang on," I muttered as I pulled out my

schedule from my bag. "Um, English with

Mr. Bailey?"

"Oh, same" He smiled and generally

looked happy to be in the same class as me.

"Cool...

So who was that guy?" I asked, not sure if he had seen the conversation before. However, then again practically the whole school had stopped to witness that little encounter so I would bet that he had.

"That was Nick Coleman. He rolled his eyes

"Dick" I mused for a second... Yes definitely has possibilities for a nickname."

With that Wesley erupted in laughter and I couldn't help but laugh with him, what can

I say? His laughter was contagious!

"We tend to go with Dick Jerkman, but I'll give you credit seeing as you're a new and all. He mimicked with a grin.

We were in the class by now and Wesley sat down behind a desk and began staring intently at me-As if he was thinking hard about something.

"Is anyone sitting here?" I asked him unsure.

"Not anymore." He smiled and then focused his attention on something behind me.

"You can find somewhere else to sit, right

Chase?" It was then that I noticed the boy standing behind me. I turned my head to

take a look at him, noticing how he had dark brown hair and dark eyes which worked well with his tanned skin.

"Yeah, it's...fine" Chase shrugged, but he wasn't looking at Wesley, he was looking intently at me with a weird look in his eyes. Confusion? Recognition? I wasn't sure.

"Chase." He introduced himself "Have we met before?" He frowned slightly like he was trying to put something together in his head.

"Um, no I don't think so. I only moved here a few days ago." I reassured him, watching as he shook his head slightly as if trying to get rid of the thought.

Wesley's POV

She was totally beautiful, but I couldn't help but think I'd already met her. Those blue eyes, I was sure I had seen already.

To say I was confused was an understatement, I was nearly 100% sure I was right. I mean even her scent was familiar, though her voice wasn't. Weird.

Who was this girl?

I felt myself vibrate, and I took out my phone

Chase-9:34

Who is she?

I swear I've met her b4, it's fucking stranger See! It wasn't just me. I knew I'd seen her before, but where?

"Wes, do you have a rubber?" She whispered, nickname? I like it, wait! "What?!" I whispered with wide and amused eyes... what did she just ask me for?

"Oh! Shoot!" Her blue eyes bulged as she clasped her hand to her mouth, blushing profoundly. "I meant eraser." She giggled. Aw, she was cute when she was embarrassed!

"In, England we call an eraser a..." She blurted before I cut her off.

"I figured" I laughed, "but no I don't have

an eraser, but I do have....." I trailed off before she hit my arm shaking her head.

"You're such a guy!"

"I am the last time I checked I laughed back

"Hey babe, I've got a condom with your name on it honey if you're still in need?"

I watched as Mike Andrews, one of the schools resident players turn in his seat to smirk at Skylar

"Oh, you must be mistaken, my names not Durex extra small" She grinned evilly back, now totally composed. Gosh, this girl was good! I didn't realize I was laughing until I heard my name being shouted from the front of the class.

"WESLEY and ...?" I immediately stopped laughing to lock at Mr. Bailey as he looked down at Skylar. She was now wearing the cutest expression on her face, as she tried to consume her laughter by hiting her lip.

"Um, Skylar Evans... Sir." She numbled.

"Well, I must say you're not making a good first impression young lady" He tutted and shook his head before he turned his attention to me. "Oh and Wesley, do you think I could have a word with you after class?" He almost grunted, oh how I hate this teacher! Why can't he just leave me alone!

"Not really, I've been assigned to show

Sky to her classes" I lied. There was no way I was passing her up so she could get grabbed by any other person in this school who owned a dick. No way!

"Oh, I see. I just wanted to ask if your brother had decided to come back from his wonder arund the Continent?" he asked sarcastically. Mr. Bailey hated my brother nearly as much as I did.

"He's coming hack in a few days" I shrugged with a frown on my face, I wished my asshole of a brother would just stay wherever the hell he was for the rest of eternity, but of course that's not possible seeing as he's got his army of mutts to order about. My stupid brother was the alpha to one strongest army of wolfs in the continent-leaving me of course with the smaller four-man pack! Oh yeah did I mention I was a werewolf
